We continue to reach out to our community because every survivor and every story matters. 🕊️

In 2019, the Diocese of El Paso released a list of priests and brothers credibly accused of abuse. But even if the person who harmed you isn’t on that list, your experience is valid, and you still have a right to file a claim.

Waiting decades to speak up is normal—but the window to take legal action is closing fast. The bankruptcy court’s deadline is THIS FRIDAY, Sept. 11.
We know how hard this is. You are not alone, and we are here to make it safe to come forward.

The Catholic Church abuse crisis isn’t just a national headline—it is a reality impacting our community right here in El Paso, West Texas, and Southern New Mexico.
A federal investigation found that over 4,300 Catholic priests were accused of abusing minors between 1950 and 2002. As a result, more than 37 dioceses across the country have filed for bankruptcy. The Diocese of El Paso is just the latest.

What this means for survivors: The bankruptcy process creates a strict, court-ordered deadline to file a claim for compensation. That deadline is THIS FRIDAY, September 11, 2026.

If you have carried this burden in silence, please know this: it was not your fault, you are not alone, and your experience is part of a much larger pattern. You have rights, and there is a team ready to protect them.

We are here to make coming forward safe.

This is an urgent message for our community across El Paso, Las Cruces, West Texas, and Southern New Mexico.

If you have been following the news regarding the Diocese of El Paso, you likely know they have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy following numerous lawsuits from survivors of childhood abuse.

What many people do not realize is that the bankruptcy filing creates a very strict window for other survivors to come forward. That deadline is this Friday, September 11, 2026.

Here is what this means for you or someone you love:
The bankruptcy does not mean survivors lose their right to justice.
It establishes a structured court process for compensation.
You must file your claim by the September 11 deadline to be included.

At Baeza Law Firm, we know how heavy this is to carry, and many have carried it in silence for decades. You are not alone, and it is not too late.

Please share this video with anyone in our borderland community who might need to hear it. If you have questions, our team is here to listen.

A court-ordered deadline of September 11, 2026, has been established for filing claims related to clergy and institutional abuse within the Catholic diocese in our region.

Through these legal proceedings, the diocese is moving to permanently resolve and close out liability for historical claims. Once this date passes, the legal window closes for good—meaning survivors will no longer have a civil court path to hold the institution accountable, even if they only feel ready to speak years from now.

This deadline applies across the Borderland—including El Paso, Las Cruces, and surrounding Southern New Mexico communities—and covers harm that occurred decades ago or more recently, involving priests, Catholic school teachers, coaches, and church staff.

If you or someone you know was impacted:
* Private & Confidential: Reaching out is simply a conversation, not a commitment to file. You stay in control of what you share and when.
* How to connect: Send a discreet Direct Message here, call915-269-7140 jvwlaw.net.

Even if this is not your story, sharing this post helps ensure no one in our community is left without answers before the cutoff.

New Mexico has approved a new path to practice law without taking the bar exam — 675 hours of supervised work instead. It’s expected to roll out in 2027… but is that enough?

Lincoln learned law by apprenticeship, too — but back then, it lasted years. In personal injury and employment law, preparation is everything.
Passing the bar in both Texas and New Mexico was just the start for us — continuous training is what keeps us sharp for our clients.

Ask your attorney about their real-world experience before you hire them.

We’ve had people walk into our office completely convinced they had a “slam dunk” case-all because a chatbot told them so.
Ten minutes later, after looking at the actual documentation, missing deadlines, and employer files, the reality sets in.

Al is great for drafting emails or making grocery lists, but it lacks the nuance, experience, and local courtroom knowledge required to evaluate a real case.

A Critical Deadline for El Paso Survivors: September 11, 2026

A lot of people are asking who is actually held responsible when abuse happens within an institution—the individual or the church?
The answer is both. While individual priests can face criminal charges for their actions, the Catholic Diocese of El Paso can be held liable in civil court for institutional failure. This includes covering up the abuse, moving accused priests to new parishes, and failing to protect the youth in their care.

Because of these civil fights, the Catholic Diocese of El Paso has filed for bankruptcy. September 11, 2026, is the absolute last day that survivors can file their claims to seek compensation and a form of justice.

If you or someone you know has questions or needs guidance, please reach out. We offer a completely confidential, free consultation. There are no fees unless we are able to secure compensation for you.

“If nothing happened when they complained, what’s the point?” 🛑
The answer is: Protection.

Even if leadership has failed to take action in the past, making a formal complaint to HR, a supervisor, or a manager is a critical step for your own legal safety. It establishes that you opposed discriminatory acts, placing you under the legal protection of “protected activity.” If you face retaliation down the line, this documentation is everything.
Your voice matters, and your protection matters more. ⚖️

Do you have questions about dealing with retaliation at work? Drop them in the comments below or reach out to us. 👇

“Helping good people and fighting bad companies.” For me, that isn’t just a catchy tagline—it’s a lifelong commitment to the place I call home.

The Southwest has some of the hardest-working, best people around. But when companies break the law and leave workers or injured individuals to suffer in silence, it impacts entire families. I know, because it happened to mine.

Our goal is simple: to empower our community in West Texas and New Mexico so that no one feels isolated or unprotected after an accident.

You have rights, and you have a voice. If you ever need someone to listen to your story and help you understand your options, we are here.
