Practice Areas Overview
Mucci Law provides experienced legal representation to clients in Albuquerque and throughout New Mexico in the following areas:
Personal Injury
Mucci Law represents injured plaintiffs in all types of accidents ranging from minor traffic collisions to serious accidents resulting in catastrophic injuries such as traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injuries, paralysis, or even wrongful death. Our areas of practice include:
Automobile Accidents
We represent clients who have been injured in traffic accidents that were caused by the negligent or reckless acts of another party. A frequent cause of automobile accidents is the negligence of other drivers, including speeding or driving too fast for road conditions, running red lights, or using cell phones. Mucci Law will help you recover the compensation you need and deserve for medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering.
Truck & Big Rig Accidents
Accidents involving large commercial trucks and "big rigs" or 18-wheelers often result in serious injuries or even death. Truckers are frequently prone to causing accidents due to improper driver training, fatigue, speeding, drug or alcohol use, or the difficulty of maneuvering large vehicles weighing thousands of pounds with limited visibility. When a truck accident occurs, it is imperative to consult with an attorney without delay, or risk the loss of valuable evidence, as federal requirements only mandate that driver's log records be maintained for sixty days.
Wrongful Death
When family members, including surviving spouses, children, and other heirs lose a loved one because of the negligence or reckless acts of another party, they may be entitled to recover compensation for their own losses. Mucci Law is dedicated to vigorously pursuing justice on behalf of family members who have suffered the devastating loss of a loved one.
Will & Trust Contests
Mucci Law represents clients in will and trust litigation, with particular emphasis on cases involving allegations of undue influence by a neighbor, friend or caregiver. Undue influence generally refers to when a person is pressured or coerced into making a gift or bequest that they otherwise would not have made. The elderly are particularly vulnerable to undue influence by people they have trust and confidence in, such as neighbors, friends and caregivers. New Mexico law will enforce a no contest clause in a will or trust and disinherit a contesting party unless the contest is brought with reasonable or probable cause. It is therefore important to retain an attorney experienced in handling these types of claims.
Consumer Bankruptcy
Mucci Law also assists individuals and families overwhelmed with debt with obtaining relief through a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy petition. We analyze each client's situation to help them determine whether bankruptcy is right for them and if so, which type of proceeding will be most beneficial given their particular circumstances. We offer affordable, fixed fee arrangements for Chapter 7 bankruptcy matters.
