Need help with a legal question? Don’t know the next steps to take? Wonder if you have to escalate a matter? NMRA is proud to announce our partnership with Mariposa Padilla Sivage of Sutin, Thayer, and Browne.
New Mexico Restaurant Association members have a lawyer hotline available with a 30 minute consultation on any legal matter. Many questions can be answered in the 30 minute consultation, and if more help is needed, Ms. Sivage or a member of her team can guide you in the right direction, or refer you to a specialist. More importantly, having an legal expert available can ease your mind about stressful matters that can come up in your restaurant.
You may have questions about:
- Crisis management and liability
- Business organization and ownership
- Loiterers and Hostile Customers
- Leases
- Sexual harrassment
- Cannabis, drug use, and testing
- Threatened lawsuits
- Applications and gig workers
- Sick leave and payroll compliance
- Trademarks and branding
This guidance is an invaluable resource to our members. If you would like to set up a member consult call, simply email membership@nmrestaurants.org or call us at 505-343-9848. We will verify your membership and connect you with legal services.
