Statute of Limitations
New Mexico's personal injury SOL is 3 years (NMSA § 37-1-8). Elder abuse claims follow the same 3-year period. New Mexico's Medical Malpractice Act (NMSA § 41-5-1) imposes damages caps and a Medical Review Commission process — consult local counsel on applicability to nursing home claims.
