Samuel Kane
Samuel Kane is known for his precision in the courtroom and his relentless dedication to clients. After earning his Juris Doctor degree with honors from the University of Miami School of Law-graduating magna cum laude and receiving the prestigious Order of the Coif distinction-he clerked for District Judge Robert C. Brack in the federal court in Las Cruces, New Mexico. That experience, seeing cases from a judge’s perspective, shaped the strategic approach he brings to every case. That, plus his years contracting with the Las Cruces public defender’s office handling trials every month, honed his ability to think quickly and advocate effectively in high-pressure situations. In 2004, Samuel founded the Law Offices of Samuel Kane. Since then he has tried more than 1,000 bench and jury cases, and found his passion helping those with serious personal injury matters. Sam is also a licensed commercial pilot, instrument rated and dual-engine rated-a pursuit that mirrors the discipline, focus, and attention to detail he brings to his legal practice. It also makes him very familiar with aviation accidents and the details they involve. When he’s not in the courtroom or in the air, Samuel enjoys staying active and giving back to the Las Cruces community. His work is guided by one clear priority: securing justice for his clients, no matter how complex the fight.

Jessica Kane
Jessica Kane has always had a love of children and a desire to help those who have faced hardship, tragedy, and pain. Jessica started her career as a school guidance counselor and a licensed therapist specifically so she could help children in need find a positive way forward. This often included counseling, crisis intervention, grief counseling, and more. Jessica then went on to become a paralegal at the Law Offices of Samuel Kane, where she saw the suffering and pain that came with personal injury and tragic loss, especially when children and families were involved. This inspired her to earn her Juris Doctorate from the Mitchell Hamline School of Law, becoming an attorney so she could help families get compensation and, eventually, closure. Her experience with children and the ways in which they process trauma help inform her approach to clients, especially minors and their families. Along with personal injury cases involving minors, Jessica has also successfully tackled cases involving active military and veterans, as well as wrongful death suits. Her clients appreciate her patience and compassion in the most difficult moments, paired with an unwavering determination when pursuing justice on their behalf. Outside of her law practice, Jessica is an avid “rim-to-rim” hiker, marathon runner, and a mother to five wonderful children. Her dream is to grow the practice so that it “runs like a big firm, but is personal like a small one.” Her patience and compassion when working with clients is matched only by her tenacity and determination when fighting for their cause.
