It’s National Public Defense Day, a reminder that our work is a necessity in the criminal court system - not a luxury.

If you are waiting on bar results and are looking for places to land, New Mexico is in the prime of prickly pear season just saying! We have an amazing statewide public defender office and most of our rural areas offer very competitive pay and lower cost of living. The offices in the 12th (where I work) are very trial heavy and we also have a vigorous motions practice. You will not be bored! And you will be sooo supported. We also serve the very best people- our work is rewarding ❤️. Consider applying at lopdnm.us/careers/. *Gratuitous picture of the hubs harvesting what became prickly pear syrup over the weekend 🌵🤤*
