Injury lawyers · Albuquerque
Hurt on the road? Three lawyers. One phone number.
We're a three-lawyer injury firm on Gold Avenue. The lawyer who takes your first call is the one who handles your case, and you'll have their direct line by the end of it.

Kinds of caseCrashes, trucks, neglect, wrongful death
Contingency fee: we're paid a share of what we recover, and nothing if we recover nothing. Case costs, such as filing fees, medical records and expert reports, are separate; the agreement you sign says how they're handled before any work starts.
Your lawyers
Who answers when you call
No intake team, no case managers in another state. One of us picks up, and stays on your case to the end.
Tomás Varela
Partner
Runs the trucking cases: logbooks, black-box data, the carrier's safety record. Speaks Spanish with clients who prefer it.
Meera Sandoval
Associate
Handles nursing home and wrongful-death claims, and sits with families through the records nobody wants to read.
What we take
Four kinds of injury case
We turn down the rest and tell you who to call instead.
Rear-end hits, red-light T-bones, uninsured drivers.
Semis and delivery trucks on I-25, I-40 and Paseo del Norte.
Bedsores, falls, missed medication, a parent who changed.
When a crash or a facility's neglect takes someone from your family.
