Third-party case review. Never talked to attorneys.

I have worked with both Nancy Hollander and Vince Ward and can unequivocally vouch for the professionalism and skill of this firm's attorneys. Top notch law-firm with national and international exposure - some of the best attorneys in the country.

This is the worst Law Firm in New Mexico. They found on getting money 'from' clients, and not 'for' clients. They abuse their status as a huge law firm to bully smaller law firms into acquiescing to their misguided legal strategies. Basically, they throw their clients under the bus. I do not recommend them to anybody as legal representation, especially if you have a disability or disorder. Very dangerous law firm. Doesn't honor attorney-client privilege.
