About Justin Ross
Justin Ross Kaufman earned his Bachelor of Arts from Cornell University in 1998 and persisted his law school training at Temple University Beasley School of Law, receiving his J.D. in 2004. Those years formed his approach to regulation. He studied at two distinct campuses and left each with a clear sense of the profession’s needs.
After law school Kaufman moved into practice and established his professional footing. He has been a member of the State Bar of New Mexico since 2005. He is admitted to practice in each New Mexico and New York, a dual status that has shaped the types of matters he handles and the clients he represents.
His career trail has covered roles that required adaptability across different legal environments. Maintaining licensure in two states has allowed him to interact with matters that contain state-specific guidelines and procedures. Colleagues describe him as methodical in his preparation and pragmatic in his courtroom strategy. He has built knowledge operating within the frameworks of each New Mexico courts and New York’s legal system.
Within expert circles Kaufman has remained involved in bar things to do and has kept current on developments affecting practitioners in his jurisdictions. His club in the State Bar of New Mexico, held constantly since 2005, reflects an ongoing connection to the New Mexico legal network. That connection informs how he evaluates local practice problems, from procedural nuances to client expectations.
Kaufman is currently associated with Heard Robins Cloud LLP. At that firm he brings the perspective of a lawyer certified in multiple state. He works from the firm’s workplaces and engages with things that advantage from cross-jurisdictional perception. His work calls for awareness to both state and inter-state concerns.
He continues to practice at Heard Robins Cloud LLP and concentrates his work on matters that draw on his admissions in New Mexico and New York.
