At Collins & Collins, P.C., we stand apart by focusing on meaningful legal work that
makes a lasting difference. Our practice is dedicated to fighting for individuals who have
suffered from civil rights violations, medical negligence, and institutional abuse. These
cases demand not only legal expertise but also a deep commitment to justice and
systemic change.
Our Core Practice Areas
Civil Rights Advocacy
The passage of the New Mexico Civil Rights Act has opened the door for victims of government misconduct to seek accountability. We fight for those whose rights have been violated, including inmates subjected to inhumane treatment, children in institutional settings, and others facing systemic injustice.
Medical Negligence
Medical malpractice in hospitals and correctional facilities can have devastating consequences. Our firm has a long history of holding healthcare providers accountable and has increasingly turned its attention to the shocking medical neglect occurring in New Mexico’s jails and prisons.
Justice for Vulnerable Groups
We represent the elderly, individuals with mental illnesses, and children who are often left voiceless in the face of abuse and neglect. Our work seeks to restore dignity and demand accountability for these individuals.
Mental Health and Nutritional Neglect
Mental health and nutritional neglect are pervasive issues in institutions serving vulnerable populations. Whether in juvenile detention centers, nursing homes, or correctional facilities, the patterns are disturbingly similar. Government and private entities driven by cost-cutting measures often fail to meet even the most basic standards of care, leading to:
-
- Untreated psychiatric conditions, exacerbating suffering and risking lives.
- Use of solitary confinement instead of appropriate mental health treatment.
- Nutritional neglect, including contaminated or insufficient food, which leads to serious health consequences.
By addressing these common threats across different vulnerable groups, we aim to hold the responsible entities accountable and push for systemic reforms that ensure dignity and care for all individuals.
Why We Are Different
Unlike high-volume personal injury firms, we focus on impactful cases that protect the rights and well-being of those most at risk. Every case we take on is approached with care, attention, and a commitment to achieving justice for our clients. Our mission is not just to win cases but to create meaningful change for individuals and communities.
