Renee Gantert joined Atwood & Malone in May 2017 immediately following her graduation from the James E. Rogers College of Law at the University of Arizona. While in law school, Ms. Gantert welcomed every opportunity to develop and sharpen her advocacy skills, both written and oral. She was a member of the Arizona Journal of International and Comparative Law and took advanced courses in both legal writing and trial advocacy. Ms. Gantert also interned for the Honorable David C. Bury in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona and for Michael O. Miller at the Arizona Court of Appeals.

Mrs. Gantert was admitted to the New Mexico Bar in October 2017.  As a lifelong resident of New Mexico prior to law school, Ms. Gantert is glad to be back in her home state and eager to put her legal education to work for the communities she knows and loves. Since she started at Atwood & Malone, her practice is centered on government liability and civil rights defense cases. She also practices in the areas of medical malpractice defense, employment law, and insurance defense.
