Dan Cornish has been named one of the top personal injury attorneys in New Mexico for 2024 by Forbes Advisor Legal, one of the premier rating services in the world.
Why They Made The List
Dan Cornish, a bilingual native New Mexican, represents the fifth generation of his family to practice law in New Mexico. His experience living in Guatemala and Panama exposed him to the marginalizing effects of an inaccessible legal system on those without knowledge and resources. Cornish's background as an actor, bartender, recruiter, academic advisor at UNM and founder of non-profit organizations afforded him the opportunity to encounter many individuals who suffered injuries due to negligence. While he began his legal career as a defense attorney, he now channels the insights he gained from fighting for the insurance companies to pursue justice and life-changing settlements for victims of various preventable accidents.
