Congratulations to Chris and the graduating class from the FBI Citizens Academy in Quantico, VA. Taking part in this program shows a real commitment to lifelong learning and community partnership. Proud moments like these remind us that strong security starts with knowledgeable people willing to grow and connect.

Direct instruction on loss prevention laws gives retail management teams practical tools for their daily work. Today, Triskelion Group of NM is with Boot Barn managers in New Mexico, focusing on understanding legal obligations and how to handle incidents the right way.

Training like this helps keep both staff and customers protected while supporting business operations.

In New Mexico, the privilege to surveil or serve papers comes with real legal weight.

I’ve seen attorneys assume the exemption from a private investigator license gives them more room than it really does. It doesn’t. In New Mexico, surveillance tied to the practice of law can fall within that exemption, but privacy, trespass, electronic communication, and e-communication laws still apply in full.

The same goes for process serving. Attorneys, or any competent adult who is not a party to the case, may serve papers, but the New Mexico Rules of Civil Procedure still control how it gets done. That means proper proof of service, filed correctly, with the date, time, place, location, and manner of service clearly documented.

That balance matters because legal privilege is not a shortcut around compliance. It is a narrow permission paired with a duty to stay inside the rules. When service or surveillance slips outside those lines, the risk lands back on the case and the lawyer.

If your firm handles surveillance or service in New Mexico, treat both like the court will inspect every detail, because sometimes it will. That level of care is what protects the work and the client.

Scenario training inside a local business gives security officers a clear look at what they could face in the real world. Sessions like this at Boot Barn allow the team to work through practical situations and strengthen their communication skills. Good habits built here support safer, more effective response when it matters most.
