I was born in Las Cruces, New Mexico. I went to college in California at Claremont McKenna College. I went to Law School at Cornell Law School. I worked for a few years at an excellent large firm in Dallas, Texas. Ultimately, however, I made the somewhat counter-cultural decision to return home to Las Cruces, New Mexico to work with my father. We have a very diverse practice that includes work for many of the community banks in the area, work for the City of Las Cruces, and both litigation and transactional assistance for large companies, small businesses, and individuals throughout Southern New Mexico and West Texas. I have cases in all levels of state court as well as federal court in New Mexico. I have also retained my license in Texas and always have a few matters going in Texas, mainly El Paso. There are only a few areas of law in which I do not practice, and I enjoy the challenge of working on something new every day. I also enjoy being able to help people in the community resolve their legal problems in as efficient and affordable way as possible.

He was very resourceful and knowledge about the law as it pertained to very specific concerns and issues regarding ...

I retained David Lutz as my divorce attorney after first consulting with another lawyer whose primary focus was to secure an outlandish retainer. I knew within minutes of our initial consultation that David would offer expert counsel. He proved to be extremely knowledgeable and experienced in all...

"I endorse David. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"David Lutz is my friend and colleague from the first day of law school in 1997 to present. I have always found David to be extremely intelligent, disciplined and responsible, and David also has a variety of experience in big law firm settings representing some of the largest companies in America. David is easy to talk to and genuinely concerned about the well being and success of his clients. David's dedication will undoubtedly lead to extremely positive results in the majority of cases, and I highly endorse him as an attorney in any legal matter that he practices. I would look no further than David and his law firm for legal matters in New Mexico."
