We frequently represent those charged with murder, violent crimes, sexual assault, domestic violence, drugs crimes, theft crimes, burglary, white-collar crimes, and DUI. If you have been charged with, or are being investigated for a crime, please call us immediately. The very first decisions that you make when you are facing charges can be important. How to handle police questioning, or how to handle your initial Colorado court appearances, involve important decisions that can influence the outcome of your criminal case.

As experienced criminal defense attorneys, we are able to promptly give you accurate information about your case and the Colorado justice system. We can guide you through what to do if the police are knocking at your door. Because some types of evidence may disappear after time has passed, we may quickly give you advise on how to gather information that will help your defense case later. There may be important evidence that has to be preserved. There may be a witness that should be interviewed sooner rather than later. An experienced criminal defense lawyer will help you to avoid making mistakes in your defense case from the beginning. We are here to help immediately with your criminal offense in Colorado.
Colorado laws, court procedures, and rules of evidence can be complicated and hard to navigate. An experienced criminal lawyer is essential if you want to maximize the chance of avoiding convictions, and minimize the potential penalties for a criminal charge. Our lawyers will study the evidence in your case, using decades of experience to evaluate how a jury might look at the case. Our first important job is to give you, our client, an accurate forecast of what will happen if a jury must decide the evidence in your case. We will tell you if you have any good legal issues that may help us to suppress some or all of the evidence against you. We will help you to decide whether to take your case to trial, or if instead a plea agreement is your best option. Call us for a free consultation regarding your charges.
The Colorado police are experienced at gathering evidence and information that will make you look like you are guilty of a crime. The prosecutor is, likewise, good at using that information to convict you at a jury trial. There is no substitute for having a skilled, experienced and effective criminal defense attorney at your side. We focus our practice on defending criminal charges just like yours. We have extensive experience defending every type of criminal charge. Because criminal law involves unique skills and knowledge, lawyers that specialize in criminal defense are essential. The attorney that handles divorces or writes wills does not spend their daily lives defending those accused of crimes in Colorado. The prosecutor that will try to convict you does that job every day. Your defense lawyer should too.
