Valerie Pickett

Job Titles:

  • Paralegal and Office Manager
I have been an attorney representing people in New Mexico since 1996. I started my career as a prosecutor with the District Attorney's office in Las Cruces. I have been in private practice since 1999. I am honored to represent people that need help in difficult times in their life. I devote my work to helping people who have been harmed by another person or company in many different areas such as car or truck wrecks, medical negligence, and bad faith practices on the part of corporations or insurance companies. I also represent people charged with crimes to make sure their rights are protected through the criminal justice system. Before coming to work with Mark, I was proud to work for New Mexico State University for eighteen years. Go Aggies! I served in several student services positions and was appointed as the Director of University Admissions in 2008, a position I held until 2014. I use my administrative experience and research skills to support Mark and the clients who hire our firm to represent them. I am pleased to be part of a team who helps members of our community during difficult times.
