NM Supreme Court Clarifies Stacking UM/UIM Coverage, to Be Applied Prospectively
“We hold that, in recognition of the practical reality that insurers now permit stacking as a matter of course in New Mexico, offers of UM/UIM insurance going forward must include a brief discussion of stacking,” stated Justice Briana H. Zamora. “However, insurers need not set out a matrix of all stacking possibilities in their offers of UM/UIM coverage to adequately inform insureds of the potential effects of stacking.”
