Civil Rights + Personal Injury + Employment + Criminal Defense

Ramón tackles cases involving violations of civil rights. When an employer, police force, or government body violates your civil rights, you can choose to stand up and fight back. Ramón knows how tough life has become for many in the U.S. But whatever your gender, race, or immigration status, you are entitled to your civil rights. Pursuing a remedy for those violations may lead us through an administrative process or to state or federal court. Whatever comes next, Ramón is here for you and your family.

The aftermath of an accident can be devastating. You or a loved one are out of work, yet still, have bills to pay. You should talk with New Mexico personal injury lawyer about who was at fault and whether you’re entitled to compensation.

Employment Discrimination

Employers should separate business decisions from their personal beliefs. But they often don’t. Many people in positions of power make decisions based on someone’s gender, race, religion, and other factors.

Federal and state laws have tried to stop discrimination. Businesses have to follow numerous federal and state laws that prohibit employment discrimination. When they don’t, the victims of their discrimination have a right to complain.

When you’ve been discriminated against, we highly recommend working with an employment discrimination attorney. Whatever the basis or form of the discrimination, we’re here to help. We’ll explain your rights and guide you through the complaint process. If it’s in your best interests, we’ll file a lawsuit.

Criminal Defense and Criminal Appeals

Being charged with a criminal offense can be a life altering experience, with the fear, anxiety and confusion that facing criminal charges can bring. It can be very difficult to face the government alone, as the court system can be complicated and frustrating to navigate. One of the best and most important decisions you can make in defending your case is hiring the right criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible.

If you’re arrested for a crime, you need a strong defender who’s able to navigate the complexities of the legal system. At the Soto Law Office, that’s exactly what you’ll get. We provide legal advocacy to those who need it, and we’ll always fight to protect your rights regardless of whether you’re charged with a misdemeanor or felony.

For criminal appeals, the criminal justice system allows parties to appeal final decisions by a judge or jury. But only in certain circumstances. You have to prove a legal mistake, juror misconduct, or an ineffective lawyer led to the wrong outcome in your case.

You can’t appeal simply because you disagree with the outcome. You need valid grounds, and you need to find them immediately.

Call our office right away. Ramón will need time to gather your trial record, scrutinize every detail, and determine if there’s evidence of one or more legal errors.
