We had a blast seeing old friends and welcoming first-year students at the University of New Mexico School of Law Back to School Fiesta. Most fun was watching our newly retired partner Michael Jahner perform with Patrick Allen as our law clerk Tristan Montoya kicked off his third semester! Wishing all the students and faculty a sensational year! 📚⚖️✏️💻

Team YLAW rolled up our sleeves at the Annual KOAT 7 Book Drive, helping collect donations that will put more books into the hands of local children. Thank you to everyone who came out, donated and made this community effort such a success!

07/15/2026

Books do far more than teach children how to read—they spark imagination, build confidence, and open doors to new possibilities. A single book can inspire curiosity, encourage empathy, and help a child discover a lifelong love of learning.

At YLAW, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to experience the joy and opportunity that books offer. That’s why we’re proud to support the KOAT Book Drive again this year.

Please drop off your new and gently used children’s books at our office and say hi. Together, we can make a lasting difference—one book, one child, one story at a time. YLAW. P.C. 4908 Alameda Blvd. NE https://ylawfirm.com/
