Put a Certified Denver DUI Defense Lawyer on Your Side

Every lawyer you speak with is going to tell you that their qualifications are more than acceptable for the defense of your DUI case in Jefferson County & Broomfield County, Colorado.

Most Denver criminal defense lawyers take DUI cases pretty regularly, being that they are one of the most common offenses prosecuted. That said, the vast majority of them spend very little time training each year and learning the subtle details of what it takes to consistently win at trial.

Our Practice is Exclusively Focused
On Protecting the Criminally Accused

Don't Plead Guilty to a Criminal Offense!

Most individuals believe they are automatically guilty at the point of arrest. They believe that fighting the charge is futile and a waste of money. In some cases, people will outright plead to the offense during the arrest process or confess to the police officer at the scene. Because of the amount of evidence that must be presented during a case, we can assure you that there is nothing open and shut about an arrest.

  • National College for DUI Defense
  • Colorado Criminal Defense Bar
  • Colorado Bar Association

They must not only knock down evidence, they must also prove that outside elements did not factor into your case, such as impairment in a DUI case. It is imperative that you remain silent during your arrest and retain skilled legal counsel. It is not your job to determine your innocence. It is the prosecution's job to prove their case.
