Aaron Mitchell, JD, Esq.

Firm Founder and Majority/Managing Partner | Former Prosecutor

Aaron Mitchell is the founder and managing attorney of Mitchell Law Offices, LLC and a Montana native whose legal career reflects disciplined preparation, strategic insight, and a relentless commitment to client success. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Sociology with an emphasis in Criminology, along with a Professional Certificate in Forensic Sciences, from the University of Montana. During his undergraduate studies, Aaron was selected to participate in the National Student Exchange Program at the University of New Mexico and interned with the Victim’s Advocate Division of the Second Judicial District Attorney’s Office, where he gained early, hands on exposure to the realities of the criminal justice system and the profound impact legal advocacy has on people’s lives.

Aaron went on to earn his Juris Doctor from the University of Idaho College of Law. While in law school, he externed with the Second Judicial District Attorney’s Office in Albuquerque, further refining his litigation skills and courtroom presence. After passing the New Mexico Bar, he joined that same office as a prosecutor, where he handled a wide range of cases including domestic violence, DWI, traffic offenses, and other misdemeanor matters. This experience provided him with a deep, practical understanding of how cases are evaluated, charged, negotiated, and tried, insight that now gives his clients a decisive strategic advantage.

In 2021, Aaron founded Mitchell Law Offices, LLC with the clear vision of building a premier, client focused law firm dedicated to high caliber representation and uncompromising standards of excellence across New Mexico. What began as a solo practice has grown into a highly respected firm known for aggressive advocacy, meticulous preparation, and unmatched responsiveness. As the founder and leader of the firm, Aaron personally oversees every case handled by the firm, ensuring that each client receives strategic direction, honest counsel, and direct attorney involvement at every stage of representation. His leadership and commitment to results are reflected in the firm’s numerous five star Google reviews, which consistently highlight exceptional communication, professionalism, and outcomes.

In addition to his private practice, Aaron has continuously held a Special Prosecutor Contract with the State of New Mexico since 2021, a distinction that underscores the confidence placed in his judgment, ethics, and legal acumen by the State itself. This dual perspective, informed by both prosecution and defense, uniquely positions him to anticipate challenges, exploit weaknesses, and pursue the most favorable resolutions for his clients.

Tyler Tuminski, Esq

Partner | Former Prosecutor

In late September 2025, Attorney Tyler Tuminski made a defining career move by accepting an offer from firm founder and Attorney Aaron Mitchell to join Mitchell Law Offices, LLC as a partner. This strategic partnership reflects the firm’s continued expansion and its mission to provide elite, results-driven criminal defense and legal representation across all four corners of New Mexico.

After years of prosecuting cases as a Deputy District Attorney in Denver, Colorado, Tyler chose to bring his extensive prosecutorial trial experience and deep understanding of prosecutorial tactics to the defense side of the courtroom, standing firmly with those accused and fighting for their rights and futures. As a new member of Mitchell Law Offices, Tyler focuses his practice on criminal defense and domestic violence restraining order litigation, two areas where the firm’s reputation for excellence continues to grow in strength and numbers.

Tyler’s background speaks for itself. After earning his Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina School of Law in 2019, he began his legal career as an Assistant District Attorney in Bernalillo County at the 2nd Judicial District Attorney’s Office, where he prosecuted DWIs, domestic violence cases, and felonies. He later advanced to the Denver District Attorney’s Office, where he served as a Deputy District Attorney and handled hundreds of criminal matters ranging from misdemeanor cases to high-profile and complex felony cases, including first-degree murder, vehicular homicide, rape, and other serious violent offenses.

Now, Tyler’s trial-tested skillset and prosecutorial insight serves as a powerful addition to Mitchell Law Offices. His ability to anticipate the State’s strategy, challenge every weakness in a case, and build strong, proactive defenses, makes him a formidable advocate in court.

Tyler is proudly licensed to practice law in New Mexico, Colorado, and New York, and he now brings his exceptional experience and courtroom tenacity home to New Mexico — where he and Attorney Aaron Mitchell continue to raise the standard of criminal defense representation statewide.
