Deadlines vary; a lawyer can confirm yours. An older diagnosis or a past filing window does not, by itself, establish whether you have a claim.

02 · Where cases are heard

Where would my case be heard?

New Mexico's pure comparative fault system and absence of any caps on compensatory or punitive damages create one of the most plaintiff-favorable product liability environments in the western United States. An estimated 15,000 New Mexico residents have been prescribed Dupixent since 2017, with prescribing concentrated in the Albuquerque metro area through University of New Mexico Health, Presbyterian Healthcare, and Lovelace Health System. The UNM Comprehensive Cancer Center, an NCI-designated cancer center, provides specialized oncology and dermatopathology services including cutaneous lymphoma evaluation. New Mexico's 3-year SOL provides adequate time, and the state's diverse jury pools — reflecting New Mexico's multicultural population — have been receptive to individual plaintiffs in pharmaceutical cases.

New Mexico has a single federal judicial district — the District of New Mexico, headquartered in Albuquerque. New Mexico follows a pure comparative fault system and does not cap compensatory or punitive damages in product liability cases. The state's pure comparative fault and absence of caps make it a plaintiff-favorable jurisdiction.
