"Cynthia Payne and her professional staff handled our case about as well as they could have. They asked every question and turned over every rock available to them, all while keeping a good relationship with the DA in case we had to cut a deal in the end. We did prevail and it was all thanks to her and her staff.  "

BUD
"Cynthia along with her firm and her paralegal Jessica are great at what they do. Their professionalism and customer care are incomparable. The are great at keeping you informed every step of the way and they make sure to impact your daily activities as minimum as possible. We really appreciate their effort on our case and will recommend her to anyone that need legal representation."

ANONYMOUS
"I was extremely satisfied with how Cynthia handled my case. She was very personable and her knowledge of the law clearly showed in the way she interacted with the District Attorney and the Judge. Well worth every penny we paid. You truly get what you pay for, I hope I never have to retain her again, but I would choose her firm again without any hesitation. "

Attention

We pride ourselves on being a law firm that focuses on our clients’ needs. We will explain your rights and guide you through the entire legal process. 

If a will or the disposition of an estate is contested, the probate process cannot be completed until a judge resolves the dispute. These proceedings are highly complex and can take up to two to three years in some cases. You should never try to settle a contested probate without an attorney. If you find yourself in a contested matter, our New Mexico probate attorneys are here to assist you.

New Mexico's Premier Probate Attorneys

Compassionate Legal Advice

The New Mexico probate process is fairly simple in comparison to the process in some other states. In fact, not every estate needs to go through probate. Estates valued at $50,000 or less can avoid probate in some instances. 

You can also avoid probate if all property transfers automatically on death, or if the assets are placed in a living trust prior to death. If you aren’t sure whether your estate requires the probate process, contact one of our experienced attorneys. 

A Successful Divorce Starts With Finding The Right Lawyer

Divorce cases most often go wrong because of the attorneys handling the case, and the techniques (or lack of techniques) that are used in the case. We are different from other law firms because we specialize in divorce and family law, know the legal roadblocks, and will guide you through the daunting divorce process with a personalized strategy.
