Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
Unless there is a provision in the contract (there often is) that provides for what state's law governs its validity and enforceability, there is no easy answer to the question, as a lot of different factors can affect the result. Assuming there is a conflict in the laws of the various interested jurisdictions, New Mexico generally applies the law of the place where the contract was entered into.
