Independent Contractor Agreements

Experienced New Mexico Employment Law Attorney

If you’re a doctor, health care practitioner or other professional and you want to establish a working relationship as an independent contractor, you want an experienced employment lawyer to protect your rights. New Mexico has laws that directly address the rights and responsibilities of independent contractors, including a recent statute that prohibits the inclusion of non-compete agreements in certain types of independent contractor agreements. Whether you are considering entering into an independent contractor relationship, or are involved in a dispute over such an agreement, Buchanan Law can help.

At Buchanan Law, we offer more than 20 years of employment law experience to clients across New Mexico. Attorney Deena Buchanan has a comprehensive knowledge of New Mexico employment law, and of the courts and judges throughout the state. She brings extensive trial experience to every case she handles, having served as lead counsel in numerous complex employment law disputes. She’s respected by colleagues and clients for her calm demeanor, regardless of the matters at stake. Deena’s successfully handled employment law disputes in many states across the country.

Semi-truck negligence caused wrongful death. This case involved a semi-truck driver who was intoxicated on illegal substances and killed our client.
