He emphasizes a tough approach to every case and a determination to aggressively fight each charge in order to protect his clients’ futures.

With a wide range of experience handling every area of criminal defense, from traffic violations to violent offenses, Michael Pariente is ready to proactively take on any issue, no matter how challenging.

This determination is evident in Michael Pariente’s educational background as well. He studied Business Administration at the University of New Mexico and then pursued his Master’s Degree in Public Affairs at the University of Texas in Austin.
