While more than ninety-five percent of divorce cases are ultimately “settled” without the need to go before a judge on a contested trial basis, there are times and cases when both parties “cannot agree to agree” on the terms of their divorce and must formally “try” their case and its issues before the court. The ultimate decision to go to trial is usually “a last resort decision.” If we are honest with ourselves the truth is, everybody loses in divorce cases, nobody wins in most instances. The staff at the Advocate Law Center will aggressively fight to ensure their client’s rights are protected that decisions are arrived at based on the facts and evidence combined with effective and persuasive legal arguments.

Facing criminal charges in the New Mexico criminal justice system is very serious. New Mexico has a reputation for being intolerant of people who find themselves caught up in the court system. Because of this it is extremely important that you have an aggressive and experienced legal team to defend your rights.
In New Mexico there are two types of criminal charges:
Felony charges are crimes that carry significant sentences and the real possibility of having to serve jail time, pay large fines, and the loss of some constitutional rights. Felony convictions may follow a person for life after the case is complete. Therefore, it is important to take felony charges seriously. Felonies involve dangerous weapons, infliction of serious injury or death, high amounts of property damage, or possession of certain types of drugs, etc. CONTACT US

The average time it takes for a personal injury case to go to trial is one to two years from the time the lawsuit is filed; however, the time it takes to reach a settlement varies greatly from one case to the next. This is largely dependent on the injuries a person receives. Some cases are complete in 2-3 months, and others may take much longer depending on the circumstances.
In the State of New Mexico, injury victims are entitled to be reimbursed for all of their accident-related harms and losses. This includes past medical expenses, future medical expenses, lost wages, funeral expenses, loss of companionship, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and others.
