As we age, making sure that all of one’s affairs are in order, notarized and signed by not only you, but a legal representative and a witness can be an overwhelming task, and one that may put off until it is too late. When my wife and I decided to finally complete this task and began researching Law Firms to assist in this process we finally narrowed it down to the The New Mexico Legal Group located in Albuquerque, NM. The New New Mexico Legal Group has a tremendous Staff of Receptionists, Paralegals, and Attorneys to help insure that your Estate Planning is exactly worded the way that you want your wishes to be followed when you can not say those words yourself. Samantha Day, Esquire, was the Attorney that my Wife and I connected with. We told her exactly what our wishes were and some even needed to be adjusted in a better manner and Samantha was very patient and understanding of our desires and wishes. We left feeling that we had been not only heard but understood. Within Two Weeks we had a complete Estate Plan that had the wording that was clear, understandable, and left no room to contest any scenario. There also is a page that allows us to make any changes as/if they occur. This Law Firm, and in particular, Attorney Samantha Day, really has the human part of what is needed when working as an attorney with a client regardless of the issue. Thank you New Mexico Legal Group for making something like Estate Planning feel as important as a High Profile Case. P.S. The fees are very reasonable for a Law Firm that treats you like you are their most important client.

I’m deeply thankful for Janine and her team, whose professionalism and dedication brought much-needed structure and guardrails, avoiding undue drama while creating and implementing the MSA and Family Plan. Their thoughtful approach and commitment to resolution made a significant difference during this time. Their work reflects the values of clarity, respect, and excellence, ensuring a positive outcome. To Janine and her team—thank you for your incredible support and impact.

Janine Caller and Jessica Manzanares were excellent in handling my case. Always on top of things and kept me informed throughout. Highly recommend!

Matthew Barceleau was great in helping me with my prenup. He gave very good advice and was very realistic in expectations of everything. I would highly recommend!

Samantha Finlayson Day and her team were very professional and thorough. Samantha took plenty of time to explain everything that we needed to understand better. Great Law Firm!

I was looking for a law firm that could handle a rather strange annulment case. Researching this group, I was SO impressed by their backgrounds, and commitment to helping their clients in need, for such fair fees. My experience with Mathew Barceleau and his staff was quite simply AMAZING.From the first phone consultation, I could tell this team was totally dedicated to helping me harmoniously solve my case. They were professional, and also made me feel almost like family. And when I got to riled up with extra information, Mathew would remind me to "save my money, stay focused but calm, and chill...if they need anything else they will let me know!!!" It was so inspiring during what can be a very stressful event! All during the case they patiently informed me of everything, and the CEO David Crum would send an encouraging email. NEEDLESS TO SAY THEY WON THE CASE, AND FOR ME AND THE WOMEN INVOLVED, IT WAS TOTALLY HARMONIOUS PERFECTION. This team should get TEN STARS⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thanks so much, you are ALL simply THE BEST.

Susan Barela went above and beyond with my case regarding a car accident. I highly recommend her services. She was knowledgeable, efficient, helpful, dynamic, and understanding. She made a difficult experience less stressful and handled the legal work with grace and diligence. I'm incredibly grateful that she was my attorney for the case. Thank you Susan!

I was represented by Susan Barela and her paralegal Desiree. They were both amazing to work with and very supportive in a very difficult time. I hope that if you seek a legal firm that you consider New Mexico Legal first and that you will have a successful relationship with your attorneys.

I recently worked with Samantha Finlayson Day to set up a Prenup. Samantha had my back throughout the whole process and made it feel like I was working with a friend (a super smart one) more than an attorney. I’d definitely work with her and her team again for any family or estate matters.

Wow. Where do I start! Susan Barella is amazing. From the moment our consultation started she was on it.. Her professionalism, honesty and work ethic is what got me through this custody battle. Having her literally saved my son & I from such a difficult situation. I also want to acknowledge how great Desiree Pena was in making sure I was always up to date with what was going on in my case. These woman are amazing!!! You won’t be disappointed 💚
