Facing Criminal Charges in New Mexico?

Being charged with a crime is overwhelming. Before the judge decides whether you can be released, the most important step you can take is hiring a criminal defense lawyer who understands the New Mexico court system. Quick action at the start of a case can dramatically change the direction of the outcome.

Your attorney may be able to negotiate reduced charges, argue for release conditions that are fair, or request a hearing to address bond. Early representation ensures your rights are protected and that someone is advocating for you at every stage.

From the moment you contact my office, you will have guidance through each step — arraignment, motions, negotiations, trial preparation, and if needed, appeals. My role is to protect your record, your rights, and your future.
