Laura Schauer Ives

“There is little more abhorrent than persons in positions of power abusing that power. I’m honored to fight for my clients to right the wrongs in their own cases and do everything I can to prevent future misconduct.”

Adam Carlos Flores

“Our civil rights are worthless if not enforced. I work hard to make sure that the rights set out in our state and federal constitutions are respected, and that those who violate those rights are held fully accountable.”

Aggressive Advocacy. Compassionate Support.

When your civil rights have been violated, our attorneys at Ives & Flores, will fight back. Our Albuquerque lawyers have more than 45 combined years of experience practicing exclusively in civil rights law and police brutality cases.

Civil rights violations, police brutality and other injustices can happen to anyone. Our team handles police misconduct cases in which officers abuse their power and violate constitutional protections. When prisoners face abuse behind bars, our attorneys demand accountability from institutions. Sexual assault survivors deserve justice, and our lawyers pursue every available legal remedy. In wrongful death cases, they help families seek compensation while holding the responsible parties accountable.

Our attorneys understand the courage it takes to stand up against powerful systems. Their approach combines aggressive advocacy with compassionate support. They know these cases inside and out, and they are not intimidated by challenging opponents.

Your rights matter. When they are violated, our team is here to restore justice and protect your future.
