Two laws protect New Mexico residents

A federal law covers everyone — and New Mexico’s own rules can add to it.

Federal law

The TCPA

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act — the nationwide law behind every claim.

  • Protects everyone in New Mexico, no matter the state rules.
  • Bars autodialed or prerecorded calls and texts to your cell without consent.
  • $500–$1,500 per call, stacking with every violation.
  • You can sue personally — you don’t wait on the government.
New Mexico law

Telephone solicitation provisions of the New Mexico Unfair Practices Act (N.M. Stat. Ann. § 57-12-22)

How New Mexico adds to your protection.

  • Calling hours: 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. local time.
  • Do Not Call: Uses the national registry.
  • Applies on top of the federal TCPA — sometimes with extra penalties.

How the law works in New Mexico

If you live in New Mexico, the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is your strongest tool against illegal robocalls and spam texts. The TCPA is a federal law that limits autodialed calls, prerecorded or “robo” voice messages, and telemarketing texts sent without your consent. It lets you recover $500 for each illegal call or text, and up to $1,500 per call if a court finds the violation was willful or knowing. Because the amounts apply per call, the damages stack quickly when the calls keep coming.

New Mexico adds its own protections through the telephone-solicitation provisions of the Unfair Practices Act (N.M. Stat. Ann. § 57-12-22). The statute restricts automated dialing systems that play prerecorded sales messages, requires solicitors to identify themselves and their purpose, and bars solicitation of numbers on the national registry. It also limits the hours: telephone sales calls may not be received before 9 a.m. or after 9 p.m. your local time, a tighter morning cutoff than the federal 8 a.m. start. New Mexico uses the National Do Not Call Registry rather than a separate state list, so registering at donotcall.gov is how you opt out.

New Mexico robocall FAQs

Can I sue for robocalls in New Mexico?

Yes. The federal TCPA lets New Mexico consumers sue over illegal robocalls, prerecorded messages, and spam texts and recover $500 per call, or up to $1,500 per call for willful or knowing violations. Keep your call logs and voicemails, then request a free review to see if you have a claim.

Does New Mexico have its own robocall law?

Yes. The New Mexico Unfair Practices Act includes telephone-solicitation rules at N.M. Stat. Ann. § 57-12-22 that restrict automated and prerecorded sales calls, require callers to disclose who they are, and prohibit calling numbers on the national registry. These rules work alongside the federal TCPA. New Mexico does not run a separate state do-not-call list.

What are New Mexico’s calling hours?

Under New Mexico law, telephone sales calls may not be received before 9 a.m. or after 9 p.m. your local time, stricter on the morning end than the federal 8 a.m. rule. A sales call outside that window can be a sign the caller is breaking the rules, which may strengthen a claim.

Do I need a New Mexico lawyer for a robocall case?

Generally no. The TCPA is a federal law that protects consumers nationwide, so you do not need a New Mexico-based attorney to bring a federal claim. Max Morgan, Esq. is licensed in Pennsylvania and handles TCPA cases nationwide, partnering with local counsel where a case requires it. Your review is free and there is no fee unless you recover.
