I regret to share my underwhelming experience with Attorney Lucas Babycos. Despite his health challenges, his lack of attentiveness and commitment to my case were disappointing. It often felt as though my legal matter wasn't a priority, with missed deadlines and crucial details falling through the cracks. More frustrating was Babycos's tendency to disregard my wishes, particularly evident in court where he presented arguments contrary to my explicitly communicated preferences. I couldn't help but question whether Babycos took me on as a client primarily for financial gains, given his lack of preparation and misguided arguments. This left me feeling that his focus was on profits rather than my best interests. Looking back, self-representation might have been wiser-this choice would have not only saved costs but also allowed me more control over the case's direction. My engagement with Attorney Lucas Babycos was unsatisfactory due to his inattentiveness, disregard for my preferences, and potential financial motivations.

I called this firm regarding my interest in estate planning. Spent 1 minute on the phone with Karin and that's all I could tolerate. Maybe she was having a bad day? Who knows, but she was rude and condescending. I hung up on her and took my business elsewhere.

I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Joleen Youngers, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very start, she was prompt, professional, and demonstrated an exceptional level of communication. Joleen took the time to fully understand the nuances of my situation, carefully considering all the individuals involved and the potential repercussions of every decision. Her attention to detail and commitment to her clients' best interests are truly commendable. If you're looking for an attorney who will go above and beyond, Joleen Youngers is the one you want in your corner. Highly recommend!

Mr Vorhees did not provide any advocacy for me in my malpractice mediation meeting. Instead he lowered the offers rapidly and drastically without any regard for my case. I ended up with one quarter of the settlement amount I expected.
I question his competency as well as his caring.

Ragsdale Law Firm saved my life. After asking my wife for a divorce I was inundated with disingenuous legal attacks. I engaged a public defender who encouraged me to plead out. Luke and Mago suggested otherwise. They achieved their goal and had my case dismissed. I’m now free to raise my daughter and live without fear.
I’m very grateful!

NM Divorce & Custody Law, LLC was very helpful in resolving a lawsuit set in motion by my late husband's mother. She was very straight forward with me right from the get-go (which I appreciated) and was not afraid to "tell-it-like-is" and give her opinion to my mother-in-law's attorney. She also gave great advice and instilled confidence in how to deal with my mother-in-law's nasty behavior and requests. The lawsuit was finally settled without too much drama. My favorite things about her are how straight forward and to the point she is.

I needed a good attorney in NM, and I live in another state, so I went to Google to search. I read the reviews about NM Divorce & Custody Law and followed up with reading Tamara's bio, the rest is history. Her and her Team are the ABSOLUTE BEST to have on my side!!
Working with her on my divorce has been great. She is very considerate of time and cost. She is very aggressive in her dealings with the opposing counsel. She takes care of business quickly and accurately. She is very knowledgeable and understood what I was saying, even when I didn't. In the beginning I had no clue what my rights were. Tamara explained what I had a right to have in the divorce and to work through the hardship of getting it.
She kept me constantly informed of any and all changes.
Her staff is amazing too! Very helpful and understanding.
I appreciate their consistently throughout the process.
I highly recommend this Law Firm.

I engaged Betsy Salcedo and Gregory Gahan to help with two cases. Betsy Salcedo was the presiding attorney. We had meetings, emails and discussions for how my case would be handled. Gregory Gahan was my court representative.
He was completely unprepared for my hearing despite all of my own preparations which cost me a lot of time and money. I did a ton of leg work for him.
Gregory Gahan waited until the last minute to prepare for my hearing and then completely blew everything despite Betsy Salcedo's assurance that they were in fact prepared.
Betsy Salcedo and Gregory Gahan will drain your retainer and finances and then when it is time to represent you in court, completely fail.
Behind my back and without my permission Gregory Gahan asked the opposing party for a Motion for Continuance on the day of the hearing....after knowing with Covid and the death of the Presiding Judge I had eagerly awaited this hearing for 6 long months.
I ended up being pigeon holed into an agreement that I was sorely disappointed in. If Betsy Salcedo and or Gregory Gahan blew your case, please report them to the NM State Bar and the BBB. Post your story, be heard.
Betsy Salcedo and Gregory Gahan are scam artists. They should not be practicing law. If that is not enough, Betsy Salcedo is completely disrespectful. Betsy Salcedo has a bad habit of talking over people. Betsy Salcedo is arrogant and will insult you and demean you.
I truly wish I never met Betsy Salcedo or Gregory Gahan. They have drained my bank account and my time. They completely botched my court case, they failed to defend me as promised.
Why on earth would a lawyer who is hired in good faith wait until the day before the hearing to get the hearing audio. Why would a lawyer go behind a client's back and ask for a Motion that a client had not approved. Furthermore, Gregory Gahan did not copy me on the email he sent the opposing party.
When I asked Betsy Salcedo and Gregory Gahan to please send me a copy of the email requesting a Motion for Continuance which I did not approve they refused. I made this request 3 times.
I finally had to terminate both of these lawyers. I guarantee they will overcharge me even though they failed to do their job.

LICENSE IS INACTIVE. Worst attorney ever! The things you did on my case Greg was unethical! And you know exactly what unethical things I'm talking about I should have turned you in. Research this attorney. He has had big problems of his own. I wouldn't waste my money. Failure. How does an attorney with 20 plus years experience only have 3 reviews? Please. Its because he is a horrible attorney. Find another attorney. Many more better attorneys out there. Go get yourself one. Greg forgets his lack of abilities have life long affects on people. Find an attorney who cares about you. They are out there.

Ripped my mom off for $6k in "copying fees," which he kept forcing my mom to pay $1000 up to $2000, all at once, before he would continue his services, despite the fact my mom was not receiving her workers comp checks. She had to sell her jewelry, including the last piece of gold jewelry my mom received from my grandma before she passed. I feel sick to my stomach thinking about it. The $6k wasn't included in the additional 15% he took from the settlement later on. When my mom finally asked for an itemized list for all these copying charges, he stopped communicating with her, wouldn't acknowledge her in court proceeding, kept agreeing to things without consulting my mom, wouldn't answer her questions in court, and rushed her into a settlement of $12,000 for three bulging disks, herniated disk, and disc degenerative disease in lower, middle and upper back that took 8 years, 1.5 of which was with Tidus. This guy is absolute scum. My mom thought she was getting a lawyer who was finally going to fight for her after all these years and he treated her like dirt because she had the "audacity" to question him and his wife accountant. Stay away!!!

The Waggoner Legal Group represented me a couple of years ago and when they reached out for me to write a review, I couldn’t say no. Will Waggoner and Robert Strumor exceeded all expectations I had. I had never gotten a lawyer before and only heard horror stories from people. They kept me updated and always told me when they were charging me and for what and always had my back, I have heard of people billing crazy hours and ripping the people off because the lawyers knew they were getting a settlement. Waggoner never did this to me and I truly felt like they were fighting for every dollar that I deserved. They won my case and for me a very good settlement. I was able to afford the best personal therapist to recover from my injury and even had some spare money to get my partner a gift for dealing with my annoying her ever since the accident. I would give them ten stars out of five if I could. I am now getting Mr. Strumor to help me with some personal estate stuff and he has impressed me as well.

I found this law firm from a friend who was represented by Will Waggoner. She told me that he had won her case which was almost impossible and that she received more money than other lawyers told her she could have gotten for her case. I was hurt in an accident and didn’t know that I could get money for the car crash I was in. I contacted Mr. Waggoner and was blown away by how much he knew and taught me about personal injury. Mr. Waggoner got me a settlement I could have only dreamed of and while I am still feeling pain from the crash, I don’t have to stress about bills and trying to find a job while I recover. I would be so screwed without him and recommend him to anyone who has gotten hurt. You can’t imagine how many kinds of injuries you can get money from.

I only gave one star because zero stars isn't a option we had Sumrall for our GAL and at first we thought he understood us and wanted what's best for our kiddo & then he totally flipped the script on us and didn't even care what our kid wanted. Didn't get to know us.. we lost our case because of this and still dealing with our kid wanting more time with us because we werent granted it but we have our other two kids 50/50. But come to find out Mender law firm and them work together to win each other cases and not in it for the kid. I could understand if we were danger for our kid but we're not we honestly just wanted more time with him and he wanted more time to spend with his other siblings and they did not care! Now we still deal with our kid being sad and wonder why he's not allowed to stay like his siblings 50/50.

I could understand if we were danger for our kid but we're not we honestly just wanted more time with him and he wanted more time to spend with his other siblings and they did not care! Now we still deal with our kid being sad and wonder why he's not allowed to stay like his siblings 50/50.

Joe Wiseman is the most disappointing attorney I have ever encountered. He handled a domestic case for me and used various tactics to increase billable hours. I found his approach highly unethical and felt deceived.

Due to my own divorce and family challenges, I have needed to navigate the family court system for the past 12 years. Initially, I worked with multiple lawyers in both collaborative and non-collaborative divorce settings in some of the largest offices in town who were professional and responsive but simply weren’t up to the challenge, leading to painful and very costly setbacks. I needed better legal support quickly and a friend referred me to Joe after he had transformed a challenging situation for her family.
Working with Joe allowed me to finally breathe easier as I faced court, knowing I had an expert on my side who cared and worked hard for the best possible outcomes. In the following years, numerous friends and acquaintances also went though divorces and their experiences were the same: Joe told them the truth, worked tirelessly, got the best outcomes possible, and protected them and their children, helping them feel safe throughout the process.
After all of this, I can say unequivocally that Joe Wiseman is the best family law attorney in town. As a father himself and a guardian ad litem, he naturally puts the needs of children first. And as a brilliant strategist who understands the ins and outs of family law and our legal environment, he knows how to support, strategize, and achieve the best possible outcomes. Other attorneys may talk a good game, but Joe will tell you the truth straight up and you can trust that his instincts and strategy are on target every time.
No matter how many challenges come my way due to my own situation, I know Joe has my back, and will work tirelessly to protect my child and our wellbeing. I trust him implicitly. Going through divorce and family court is hard. I would wish every family going through this to find their way to Joe first to save themselves from the cost- both financially and personally- of working with anyone else. We are so fortunate to have Joe and his team here in Albuquerque. His care, skill, strategy, and knowledge have transformed our situation and that of everyone I know who has worked with him. My life and my child’s life are better now, thanks to Joe.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
