Elizabeth Ashton is a true professional. She is compassionate, strong and diligent. Elizabeth has the ability to get to the core of any matter and advocate for her clients. I am so lucky to have met her!

I paid for the consultation $225 for one hr and the lawyer just kept looking at her phone every time
It rang. I mean I paid her and found it very disrespectful because her attention should have been completely on me not her phone. Every time it would ring I had to pause because she would answer and sometimes I would forget what I was talking about or what i was going to ask her. The retainer fee of $6000 is way out of my pocket. I was told between $1500 and $3000 depending on my case which i don’t think it’s that complex. I wish they had a payment plan. I was really excited and looking forward to possibly hire one of them to represent me.

My divorce took one year and three months to complete. We had no assets no, money, and nothing to fight about except the parenting plan. Usually, divorces like mine are handled very quickly and for very little money. However, when you are working with another party that is in the military, and regardless of military service is a very difficult individual to boot, with a lawyer that could match him for whit, things take a long time. My lawyer was Robert Matteucci Jr. of New Mexico Legal Group, and he handled this drawn out divorce and the difficult other party with a lot of finesse and skill. This was a frustrating situation, and he maintained constant composure through every bit of it. He knows his material, and is on the ball when it comes to responding to emails and phone calls. When the other party or his lawyer were degrading to my character, as an individual, he was quick to my defense, and I felt that my lawyer really had my best interest and the interest of my kids at heart. His paralegal Krista Barnett should be a lawyer herself, and I appreciated how quickly she got things taken care of. I would highly recommend this law firm for divorce and family matters, and I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone going through this type of situation.

Divorce is a difficult matter and highly emotional. When looking for an attorney, I recommend finding someone who is a voice of reason even when it goes against what you feel is best. You aren't looking for a best friend, you're looking for a person who will fight and negotiate on your behalf. I was in another state when my husband filed papers so finding someone that I could trust sight unseen, was essential. Amy Bailey proved to be professional, considerate, compassionate and tough. I couldn't have asked for better representation. Additionally she has a wonderful sense of humor that brings levity during a season of upheaval and upset. Desiree Pena also proved to be a blessing with her wonderfully efficient but tender soothing voice. I am so thankful to have found them. They made a huge difference in my life.

Amy Bailey handled a very difficult case for me involving domestic violence. She was always caring and compassionate and kept me advised throughout the process.

I'm one of those older clients with children who thought my divorce was in the rear-view mirror until it became apparent the original custody plan from another state needed revision. New Mexico Legal Group was recommended by my previous attorney when I came to New Mexico, and they proved to be extremely professional. They did their homework; not only regarding New Mexico law, but in my case international concerns. My attorney and paralegal knew how to keep the case on track, did not waste time or expenses, and comfortably kept me advised throughout the process.

Sarah Armstrong is worth everything! I’ve had an ongoing custody case for 5 years. She whole heartedly work hard to help me. I now have sole legal and sole physical custody of my son. I am beyond satisfied with her work and ethics. Sarah is definitely who anyone should chose to represent your case.

If you require an arbitrator, seek legal assistance elsewhere. This firm failed to submit all documents to the court. They were hired as an arbitrator and catered heavily to one party, hardly neutral arbitration. The attorney was rarely available and responded poorly to questions and concerns. Do not use this firm.

I had a very complicated divorce but Mr. Mateucci and the NM Legal Group team were hugely helpful. If both parties are amendable I highly recommend the collaborative divorce process. It saved us time, expense, and helped to preserve goodwill between me and my ex.

Twila, Tina, and Desiree advised me, prepared the many iterations of documents, and guided me through a process I knew nothing about. I was kept up-to-date with emails giving me the latest status and advising me on the next actions required. Twila is also very good at wordsmithing when precise nuances were important. Since I'd never been through a process like this before, I had a lot of questions which Twila and Tina were able to answer given their considerable experience. Through the entire process I was treated with courtesy by the entire staff.

I wanted to take the time to discuss my business interactions with Bob Matteucci and his legal aide Krista Kibler. Talking about divorce isn't necessarily easy, but I'd happily share a great experience with something complicated and emotionally draining. Before I started the process I looked into 4 other legal groups before I hired Mr. Matteucci. His process, cost, and personal nature won me over. The process started March 2019 and the divorce was finalized July 2019. He was a mediator between my ex and I. Every part of the process was met by this legal team in a warm and professional manner. Ofcourse there were high emotional moments that was easily navigated by Mr. Matteuttci which I appreciated the most. His systematic, detailed, and personal approach made this process quick and fair. Krista also contributed by communicating constantly throughout the entire process while staying flexible with all the changes in appointments and times.

I worked with Bob Matteucci and his paralegal, Krista Kibler for approximately a year and was very pleased by their professionalism and ability to move the process along. Legal matters can be very difficult to completely understand, but Bob explained everything very well and, more importantly, gave me his honest opinions about my options. Overall, I was happy with their service and would absolutely recommend New Mexico Legal Group to others.

I was referred to Amy Bailey and I am very glad I was. Her and her paralegal Tina Arce were awesome! They were attentive and understanding. I also appreciate Amy’s honesty and realistic approach she gave me on what to expect and what was possible in my divorce settlement. They made a difficult process easier and they were worth every penny. I would recommend them to anyone needing representation for a divorce process.

Would not recommend to anyone. I live out of state and was infored that the lawyer would show up on my behalf to my court appearances. Well the Lawyer never showed up to my 1st court appearance which I later found out and almost got into deeper trouble for. For my actual hearing the Lawyer showed up only minutes before the hearing and she looked like she just rolled out of bed, while I was early eagerly waiting with tons of questions on my mind, being extremely nervous. The only reason I got off is because the Officer didn't supply his evidence. The lawyer didn't have to do much other than collect my fat $5000. I only used their services in 2017. And now less than2 years later, I requested a copy of my disposition as I was informed they could provide a copy in the future retaining my records for up to 7 years. Well they are saying they store documents in an offsite locations and would charge me a hefty fee in order to provide that to me after already forking over thousands for service equivalent to that of a public defender, which would have only cost me $1000. Very disappointed to say the least.

My divorce attorney, Ms. Larkin and her assistant, Ms. Pena are the consummate professionals. They work great with one another allowing nothing to fall through the cracks. They know their craft well, and are steadfast toward working for the best outcome for their client. They are diligent in the collection of, and the processing of all the facts, building a solid organized file, in which to develop a logical game plan on your behalf. I believe in “you pay for what you get”, if you don’t hire these folks, you will more than likely be unhappy with your outcome.

We went in for a mediated divorce and got assigned to Amy Bailey and her paralegal Tina Arce. They were quick, effecient, professional, and everything was done within under two months. Both handled tears, yelling, and everything that comes with divorce with grace and understanding. Not to mention the flat rate was very reasonable! I had such a bad preconceived notion of how bad the process would be and they made it so much more bearable. Thank you ladies!

I want to express my appreciation and gratitude for the NM Legal Group for holding my hand during my stressful divorce. I will never be able to thank lawyer Twila Larkin and paralegal Desiree Pena enough for their compassion and hard work they have put into my case. I want to make sure they understand how much they are appreciated and I can never thank them enough for always being there for all my questions and breakdowns. So if you need the best representative, lawyer, I highly recommend the NM Legal Group and staff, but mostly Twila and Desiree, to handle any and all divorce settlements. Also, this office has the kindest receptionists and the best mints, please keep them around in case I’m in the neighborhood so I can drop by and grap a handful. Again thanks for your understanding and kindness!

Where to even start? Twila & Desiree (paralegal) were/are AMAZING!!! They're both quick with responding to e-mails, getting us the information that we needed in a timely matter. My family doesn't even know how to repay Twila for what she has done. We needed help, and she completely blessed us. Our case was a crazy one and with her help she got us the answers we were looking for and the results we needed.
THANK YOU TWILA, VERY MUCH RECOMMEND!!!

Bob Matteucci represented me in my Divorce. He advised me on what has turned out better for me in the long run. We were able to Settle the matter without going to Trial thereby saving me a lot of Money.

Unfortunately, after Bob pressured me to leave my Review, it came to my attention that parts of the Agreement were left out of the Final Document resulting devastating outcome. When I attempted to talk with Bob, he refused to help me even though I paid him in full!!

Thanks again Bob, you blew it!!

I have, and will recommend New Mexico Legal Group to all. I was blessed by having the paralegal Desiree Pena. My divorce wasn't easy by any means, and nor was I an easy client. I expect excellence, from myself; and those around me. That is what this team is, accurate and precise. The divorce was complicated due to assets and retirement benefits. I know that the expertise and knowledge that was given to me, represented my best interest at all time. And yet, fairness and compromise was also presented for our best outcome. I personally had a lot of questions, and Desiree always responding in timely manner; and was professional. Desiree went far above and beyond, to work with me. She showed great compassion, and yet has nerves of steel.

Sarah Armstrong and Katie Webb are two of the most amazing people I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with! Sarah is so down to earth and understanding when it comes to divorce, and the struggles and tribulations that follow. Katie is so very helpful and prompt with returning calls and E-Mails. I found wonderful people during a not so wonderful time in my life. I highly recommend them and their firm! (Not to mention being extremely affordable)

My custody case was assigned to Joe Wiseman who I found cocky and degrading. Instead of representing me he judged me for my previous decisions. He took several days to respond to my calls and emails. In the end I paid him thousands of dollars for a parenting plan that was not much different from what my son's father and I were already doing even though helps claim in our consultation meeting was "I never lose." This experience was very disappointing and costly.

I hired New Mexico Legal Group two years ago and have been represented by Joseph Wiseman. Prior to working with their firm, I had an attorney representing me, and years of experience in the courtroom. I would like to provide some feedback on how Joe Wiseman handled the hearing we had recently

For many years, the opposing party has kept a tone pitching that he has done no wrong and I have been an absent parent. Joe Wiseman was able to take the years of evidence and utilize the facts of the case to demonstrate that the opposing party has in fact played a significant role in why my children have been estranged.
As a result, the judge recognized that the opposing party has in fact contributed a significant amount of trouble for this case. This ultimately changed the tone of my case at the end of the hearing which is something that my previous attorney was not able to overcome.

We had a favorable outcome and I would like to recognize Joe Wiseman for his efforts!

RECENTLY, ATTORNEY ROBERT MATTEUCCI OF NEW MEXICO LEGAL GROUP, REPRESENTED A FAMILY MEMBER OF MINE IN A LONG AND COMPLICATED CASE. EXPERTISE AND PROFESSIONALISM WERE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS THROUGHOUT THE ENSUING PROCEEDINGS.
BOTH REQUIREMENTS WERE FULLY AND PROMPTLY MET.

MR. MATTEUCCI, IN ADDITION TO LEGAL DUTIES, DISPLAYED CARE AND PERSONAL CONCERN FOR THE FEELINGS AND NEEDS OF ALL OF THE INVOLVED PARTIES.

I WOULD, WITHOUT HESITATION OR RESERVATION, RECOMMEND THIS ATTORNEY, AND HIS PARALEGAL, TO ANYONE SEEKING LEGAL HELP.

I lived out of state and I had to work with him over the phone and he was always in contact with me. I am so thankful I found him on Google! I could not be happier with how things turned out. Bob was fantastic and worked quickly! I would recommend everyone to New Mexico Legal Group! I'm truly thankful for them!!

I highly recommend Twila Larkin as she is an extremely knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate divorce attorney. There are not enough words to convey Twilia’s level of legal expertise! She is a stellar and extremely smart legal divorce attorney. Upon my initial consultation with Twilia, she was able to quickly review and assess my complex legal documentation; and provide me with my legal options that were in my best interest. Her legal expertise was imperative as I was married to a prominent businessman for 20 years so there were many complex legal divorce issues to be assessed and addressed. Twila assisted me by going above and beyond to ensure that I met my extremely short divorce deadline which was imperative and ultimately in my best interest. I would give Twila the Highest 5 Start Rating and recommend Twila Larkin to anyone who is seeking the best divorce attorney in New Mexico.

I am very grateful to have had Robert Matteucci represent me through my child custody. I had a very complicated case and Mr. Matteucci saw me through it. I would highly recommend Robert Matteucci to anyone going through child custody. Mr. Matteucci is an exceptional, ethical and knowledgeable attorney who cares about the well-being of the children. Child custody is a stressful event especially as a father; however, Mr. Matteucci fought for what I requested (equality as a father) and never asked me to settle for anything less. Mr. Matteucci was always professional and was never inflammatory towards the other party. More importantly, he was great mediator and advocate for the children. At the end of the day, the kids happiness and safety is what matters, Mr. Matteucci will fight for that.

Not a good experience. I was given bad legal advice. Was not told all of the options for my son, who has a disability. Was "referred" to mediators and GALs who are "friends" and in the same "circle" just to take more money from me and not in the best interest of my child with special needs. Would not recommend this group for family law!

After 14 months of motion after motion and thousands of dollars and not much closer to a settlement, we looked for different representation for our daughter's divorce. We found Emma Whitley at New Mexico Legal Group. At the time our daughter was 6 weeks from going to trial for the divorce. Emma did more the first 5 hours she had the case than we were able to accomplish over the last 5 months. In 15 days she had the mediation scheduled with an excellent mediator, opposing counsel on board, and in 6 hours of mediation the divorce was settled. She took control of the mediation, set the parameters and somehow had everybody working together for a fair and reasonable settlement. Without Emma we would be facing $15-20,000 in additional legal fees, and an unknown outcome. If you are facing a divorce, go to a Family Law Attorney. If you are dealing with a very difficult, angry spouse, go to Emma. She will find a fair and equitable solution in the shortest time possible.

I can say with absolute sincerity that New Mexico Legal Group saved the life of myself and my child. I came to them out of a dangerous domestic situation. The lawyers and staff were very understanding of my situation and were there for me every step of the way. This lengthy, complicated, high conflict case ended with me having sole custody of my child ( which I was told was not even possible by everyone in court clinic/court staff etc). They fought for us and helped give us a brand new life. Martha Kaser, Emma Whitley, and Desiree Pena are the absolute best you can hope to have in your corner. Thank you for everything.

We LGBTQ folks don't always experience what seemed from start to finish to be a completely genuine atmosphere of welcome. In my case, I needed a legal name change, and Bob and Desiree were on top of navigating the legal labyrinth in a prompt and efficient manner that will now allow me to get on with my life. Thanks, guys!

New Mexico Legal Group has been & continues to be the best decision I could have ever made. They were there for me in a time of total & complete crisis & despair. Sarah Armstrong has the inate ability to understand when her client needs some tough love about there ongoing child custody issue, or a hug. She has a keen ability to keep you rational when we as parents are at our most irrational state, when it comes to our most precious thing our children. She is able to more than competently represent you in the courtroom, but more importantly (as I have now learned & experienced) as a strong, compassionate, advocate in the months, even years it can take to resolve these very emotional trying issues of again the most important thing in the world OUR CHILDREN. I highly recommend NM Legal Group & in the field of child custody specifically Sarah Armstrong is the absolute best. I say that from an unfortunate area of experience. I went thru & retained 3 other "supposed" top NM custody attorneys & consulted with several others before finding NM Legal Group & Sarah Armstrong specifically. They get results, but genuinely care about you & your family & prepare you for & continue to support you thru the ever changing very challenging aspect of 'Coparenting' which is very RARE in the legal field.

As a Marine Corps combat veteran I would not recommend NM Legal Group. I called this morning asking questions about my case and how I was concerned about how my initial consult ended. I was given an appointment to meet with "Bob" the next day. I was contacted by Bob personally this afternoon and was informed that after speaking with his boss, he was no longer taking my case. I will be receiving a refund for the retainer fee in about a week. I went to them because I was stressed out and needed help. Would not recommend to any other Veterans.

Joe Wiseman has been an amazing help to my family. His knowledge of the custody laws, judges, and different court procedures is unparalleled. Every time I would be preparing for my custody hearings, I would be a nervous wreck. But having Joe by my side, made the whole process much easier. He would know what the judge was going to decide before court was in even session. Every step of the way I knew what the outcome of each hearing would be, simply because Joe had that much expertise. I'm now ecstatic with the outcome of my case.

They quickly drafted and filed a time sensitive motion for me, despite the fact that I was living out of state. There were some issues with a paralegal that no longer works there, but the head of the firm went to great lengths to address my grievances and project a professional customer service oriented firm. Given their responsiveness, I would work with them again.

The NM Legal group has made the experience of law a bearable matter. Firstly they are organized in a very functional manner. The paralegals are extremely well versed in case resolution and speaking to them is as good as speaking the lawyer. Jessica was the paralegal who I worked with and she not only was informative, but also took the time to anticipate any peripheral concerns I had and address them as well. I was always clear on the status and aware of the various routes the process may take. Aside from that, Jessica was also very compassionate and considerate about the situation. I also compared price and for the in depth service that they provide the
price is very good. I would say more about Cynthia who was my actual lawyer, but the process was so smooth, I dealt with her in a very minimal basis. I would highly recommend the group.

I would highly recommend Emma Whitley to anyone going through a military divorce. She was very knowledgeable about all of the intricacies involved with this type of divorce and pointed out things for me to think about that I either knew nothing about or had not considered. It was an extremely stressful time and she was able to guide me when my thinking was clouded. Ms. Whitley always got back to me in a timely manner whenever I had questions or concerns and the entire staff was also very helpful and professional. I would highly recommend Ms. Whitley to anyone going through a similar situation.

Highly recommended! Cynthia Payne and her staff are all very friendly, competent, and attentive. They understand that good people make mistakes and were there to guide my husband and I through every step of the legal process to ensure a fair and manageable outcome to the case.

I really can't say enough about our experience with Emma Whitley and New Mexico Legal Group. We had a difficult custody case with many twists and turns, and Emma stayed rock solid and on-the-ball throughout. She is poised, thorough, professional, caring, and an excellent attorney in the courtroom. At the start, we were informed of the expected costs and procedures accurately. Emma communicated clearly and was responsive to all of our emails. We felt that our case was getting the attention needed, without any excessive waste of time/money. We were given options and not pressured into any choices, just given straight-forward facts about what the likely outcomes could be. In the courtroom, Emma was eloquent and argued our case cheerful determination. She handled surprises and drama with calm assurance. Even when confronted with personal verbal attacks from the opposing party, she retained her upbeat, respectful demeanor. Legal issues are stressful enough; make sure you get an attorney that you can trust. We are so grateful to have found Emma and can not recommend her highly enough.

Words could never come close to expressing the gratitude my husband and I feel for Jessica and her team. During one of the most terrifying times in our lives, she was a beacon of hope and a champion in the courtroom. Not only is she a competent and well-respected attorney, she is also a compassionate and supportive person. She restored our hope and guided us to victory, all while making us feel like we were her only client. We trust her leadership completely, and should the need ever arise again; she is the only attorney we will hire.

I went through an awful divorce and nightmare custody battle a couple of years before finding NM Legal Group. After being referred to them they helped tremendously in getting custody issues taken care of and making sure that they were also focused on what was best for my child and not how much money they could make off of me. I am forever thankful for the professionalism, kind words and support I received and have and will continue to recommend them to anyone that needs help.

I interviewed several firms and liked the fact that David talked my out of getting divorced the first time as my kids were small. The second time NMLG helped make the experience as non-confrontational as possible. Recommendations were made such paying some alimony so my ex couldn't come after a much larger # if she lost her job/business, which I am grateful to not have to worry about future events that I have no control over. They even came in over the holidays when they were short staffed to get the papers printed and signed once the decision had made. Thanks to NMLG for your help making my children first by keeping everyone rational(mostly)!! Ronald L. Pattison

I was looking for a lawyer who would do a reasonably-priced, fast, professional uncontested divorce that included child support and custody arrangements, and New Mexico Legal Group was a great choice for that. It cost ~$2,000, and was done within 4 weeks. David did a great job - from the 1-on-1 consultation where the terms of the divorce were customized for our situation to timely handling of the paperwork and filing of the divorce. I would recommend them to anyone looking for legal counsel for a similar sort of situation.

Without a doubt, David Crum's attention to detail and creative
problem-solving helped get my family through this divorce. I was
expecting it to take a year or more, but with David's guidance, we
resolved everything in under six months. Call David if you're looking
for a smart, empathetic expert in family law.
