David R. Baake

Harvard Law graduate serving Las Cruces and Southern New Mexico with a focus on Business Litigation and federal appeals. The majority of my practice involves representing businesses and individuals in contract, fraud, partnership, and real estate disputes. I have litigated in courts all over the country, arguing before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit and briefing the U.S. Supreme Court. I am particularly comfortable litigating in federal district court, having completed two federal clerkships. Whatever the scope of your project, I will provide you with excellent, diligent representation few other attorneys can match.
