About Couture Law
Couture Law serves Lincoln County from its Albuquerque base in Bernalillo County, providing remote and traveling family law representation to rural New Mexico communities that lack local family law practitioners. Lincoln County — famous as the site of the 1878 Lincoln County War and the exploits of Billy the Kid, with county seat at Carrizozo and the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation covering a large portion of the county (triggering ICWA obligations for tribal family law matters) represents the kind of rural New Mexico community that Albuquerque-based firms increasingly serve due to the scarcity of resident attorneys in sparsely populated areas.
