Jordan and Ken were amazing, good communication and positive results! Preferred working with them over the other associate. Jackie at the front was amazing and always found us answers if Ken and Jordan were not available! Hopefully we will not need them again, but they will be our go to!

I am incredibly thankful for the outstanding legal representation I received from Jordan Haddad. Thanks to his dedication and expertise, my charge was successfully reduced from a DWI to a careless driving violation. After getting arrested for splitting a divided highway lane and blowing under the legal limit, I was worried how this would affect my life and job.From the very beginning, Jordan demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal system and provided me with clear, strategic advice. His professionalism and commitment to my case were evident in every interaction, and their ability to negotiate a significantly better outcome exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Jordan to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate attorney. Their hard work truly made a difference in my life.

The New Mexico Criminal Law Offices provided outstanding communication and managed my case with the highest level of care. If I ever need legal representation again, I will definitely return to this office. Mr. Haddad, the lawyer I worked with, was exceptional. Additionally, I noticed that all the lawyers in the firm work together as a team and are very supportive, treating you as a valued client of the entire practice. I will certainly remain loyal to them for all my legal needs.

I am not a lawyer, but I would advise you against hiring Kenneth Gleria as your lawyer. In my first conversation with him, he asked me "You want to win this case, right?", leading me to believe that he would do everything he could to argue my case, but instead he told me to take the plea deal as soon as it was offered and gave very little legal counsel. When I asked him questions relating to my case and how it could affect my job, he told me to find out the information myself and report back to him. Isn't a lawyer supposed to have the answers to questions regarding the law? He was condescending when he spoke to me and it never felt as though he saw me as a real individual going through a difficult circumstance, but instead saw a paycheck. He also cost about 2k dollars more than other lawyers I heard about from people who were dealing with the same issue. He also gave me false information: I had an issue during my probation and when I spoke to him about it he told me it was going to be an automatic 2 days in jail and to "expect" going to jail. Obviously this was very upsetting and I was worried sick all day, but when I talked to my PO she shook her head and said that that was absolutely untrue. If you're dealing with a difficult circumstance and want an attorney who understands, listens to you, and who has your back, then look elsewhere. I will say that I did like Jack. He came to my trial instead of Ken, and Ken never told me he wouldn't be at my trial. Jack was much more honest and real with me and I appreciated that. Jackie was also very sweet. But working with Ken was a most unpleasant experience.
