Featured Attorney
Michael V. Quintana
I was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I attended the University of New Mexico, where I earned a dual bachelor's degree in criminology and psychology, graduating magna cum laude in 2022. I then attended the University of New Mexico School of Law, where I earned my J.D., cum laude, in 2026.
After graduating from law school, I joined Butt Thornton & Baehr as an associate. My practice focuses on civil litigation, where I represent individuals and businesses in a variety of matters throughout New Mexico. I enjoy the problem solving and advocacy involved in litigation and look forward to continuing to develop my practice at the Firm.
In my free time, I enjoy golfing, staying active, watching sports, and spending time with family and friends.
