Forever Grateful for Mr. Cessna
“Mr. Cessna was absolutely professional and knows everything to know about the law. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is going through a DUI or DUR charge. I’m grateful he was my lawyer and advised me all the way through to the end. Chris can help you tremendously through your difficult time and work hard to give you excellent service. I will be forever grateful for him.”

I recommend Cessna Law Firm
“I would like to extend an immense 'thank you' to Chris Cessna and his law firm associates for their professionalism, due diligence, and representation of my DUI case. Before my first court date, I was a nervous wreck and had no idea what to expect. Chris was able to explain all proceedings with great detail, and always responded quickly or within a timely window if I had any further questions upon us last speaking. I always felt that Chris and his associates were putting forth the time and effort toward achieving the best possible outcome for my case. Thank you for all of your hard work, and best yet, winning my case. Thank you, again!”

The best out there is Chris Cessna
“I was arrested in April 2018 for DUI suspicion; blood results a month later came back at three times the legal limit. Because of Mr. Cessna’s absolute knowledge of law, the DUI charges (both administrative and court) were dismissed. If you are facing a DUI, for any DUI suspicion, you need professional representation -- the best out there is Chris Cessna.”

You are an angel. Thank you.
“Hire Mr. Cessna. He paved the path to my freedom in countless ways. My story…I was arrested in my driveway. I was having the most horrific day in one of the most horrific times of my life and needed to get out of the house. I had consumed a few glasses of wine over a two hour period. It was snowing so didn’t go for a walk…got in my car instead and parked about six houses away from my own to call a friend. As my friend and I were chatting, my neighbors called the police on a “suspicious vehicle” parked in the neighborhood. The police showed up just as I was pulling away to return home. (I did not see them.) The police activated their lights, which scared me immeasurably as it was incredibly dark. I jerked into my cul-de-sac, parked in my driveway, and then…the absolute hell began. And my three children got to witness all of it. Within three minutes my license was taken and I was in handcuffs. I begged to use my own restroom (seven times on the police cam) so that I could complete the roadside test but the JeffCo police would not release me. I agreed to go to the station to do a blood draw…hoping maybe they would let me use the restroom at the station once we got there. I was wrong. I waited 45 minutes before the EMT was available to take the blood draw. I was then able to use the restroom in the booking area. Then, the mug shot and other paperwork were done. The day after I was arrested I contacted a few lawyers who, gut feel, made me feel like I was already a criminal for just getting arrested. (I don’t have a previous DUI.) Somehow I was lucky enough to land on Mr. Cessna’s webpage …. Mr. Cessna is a former policer officer. As a lawyer, he cut his teeth in the DA’s office. He has been a successful and specialized DUI lawyer for almost two decades. He is the real deal. And that real deal Mr. Cessna texted me as soon as he got my web inquiry and called me when we both could talk. I knew from the instant I talked to him that he was going to help me and would not sugar-coat or BS me. The DUI process is not quick. I waited a month to get the BAC results and there were absolutely terrifying (almost three times the legal limit). Here is what I was looking at with my BAC: • Mandatory jail time • Three years probation • Driver’s license loss; breathalyzer for nine months after re-instatement • SR-22 insurance for three years • Loss of my pilot’s license (luckily, not used for work) • The forever record of a DUI when employers do a background search Mr Cessna has incredible knowledge of all aspects of DUI and because of this, these were my outcomes: • DMV Hearing: My license my re-instated after Mr. Cessna presented case law that the arrest was not legitimate, the DMV/ administrative hearing officer found in my favor. I got my license back. I did not have to pay for a breathalyzer or extra SR22 insurance for three years. HUGE! IN addition, Mr. Cessna discovered that the blood draw may have not been done accurately which could be used in court down the road. • JeffCo Criminal Hearing: It took two motions hearings to present my entire case and get all the judges questions answered. My Cessna fought to suppress all facts found after the police activated their lights in my first motions hearing; after thinking it over the Judge wanted a bit more details about the driveway arrest so a second motions hearing was scheduled. As that hearing drew to a close even the DA agreed and recommended a case dismissal . The Judge agreed. Case Dismissed. This absolutely would not have happened without Mr. Cessna’s expertise, patience, willingness to seek advice of his peers (in my case) and fight for my rights. Mr. Cessna supported me through every single step of a very, very terrifying legal situation. I honestly think he is an angel who gave me back many years… and that is immeasurable. I will forever be in gratitude.”

Thank you for a job well done!
“I would like to thank Mr. Cessna for representing my son in a case that could have had severe repercussions otherwise. We were always made to feel as comfortable as possible about the proceedings at hand to which we greatly appreciated. Through his skill and knowledge of all applicable laws, Chris was able to retain my sons driving privileges and plead the alcohol charge to a non-alcohol related traffic ticket. Chris never guaranteed us anything but assured he would fight for my sons rights and that is what he did. Thank you Mr. Cessna, you come highly recommend by myself and my family.”

You always had our total confidence.
“Chris - My wife and i wanted to tell you how much we appreciate the assistance and guidance you gave our son. You always had our total confidence. We won’t forget you. Please pass our thanks on to Holly.”

We will forever be thankful for all your hard work.
“We just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how grateful we are for everything you have done for us. We will forever be thankful for all your hard work and that of Hayley's also. You are truly an intelligent and remarkable man, as well as generous. I will truly be indebted to you for helping me overcome this travesty of justice. Thanks also for listening so thoughtfully while I whined and moaned over the frustration of the entire situation. Your time and effort is so appreciated. God Bless you Chris and Hayley, God Bless you both.”

Mr. Cessna was amazing.
“I would like to thank Mr. Cessna for representing me in an extremely difficult case. I was facing severe consequences from what would have been a third DUI in under five years. To complicate the situation, I was also looking at a probation violation in another court. The evidence against me was compelling. My only knowledge of courtroom procedure was what I have seen on TV. Mr. Cessna was amazing. I can honestly say it was his courtroom demeanor and knowledge of DUI laws that brought a not guilty from the jury. I highly recommend Cessna Law Office for representing you.”
-
I can’t thank you enough!
“Thank you so much for everything. If I know anyone who needs legal help, you will be the first person they call. I can’t thank you enough! Best wishes to you both!”
-
It is inspiring to see someone so clearly put the needs of the client above personal gain.
“For whatever my opinion is worth, I think it says a lot about your character that you would recognize the need to get someone like (named expert) on this case. It is inspiring to see someone so clearly put the needs of the client above personal gain. (In an email from a fellow attorney when she learned that Mr. Cessna had given away thousands of dollars of his own attorney’s fees in order to bring on a highly specialized expert who ended up winning this very serious felony case and kept this client from spending many years in prison).”
-
His extensive and lengthy background coupled with his compassion are why he's the best.
“Chris worked with me during a difficult time. He was so knowledgeable, helpful, patient with explaining how the whole process works, and well networked throughout the CO legal system which turned out to be very beneficial. I highly recommend working with him, he will do everything he can to make sure you have the most positive experience in a really challenging situation. His extensive and lengthy background coupled with his compassion and commitment to helping people are why he's the best.”

No legal repercussions on my DUI case, I am indebted to your for that.
“I wanted to thank you for the gift of minimal to no legal repercussions on my DUI case. I was so thankful for your enthusiasm towards my case, and am indebted to your for that and your dedications achieved in court. It was a pleasure working with you, and I will gladly recommend you to anyone needing similar help.”

You answered every question we asked of you.
“Hello Chris & Shelly, Hope you are both doing well. Circumstances have certainly gotten better since the dismissal of the charges. It was a surreal moment when the case was dismissed and I know that nothing short of a miracle took place. I really want to thank you both for your support throughout this case. Initially, we consulted with three other lawyers before meeting with you and making our final decision. Chris, I have to say that during our initial meeting, I felt a sense of ease as you listened to our case and explained to us in detail the legal aspects of Josh's case, the steps involved with a DUI and the ramifications specific to Colorado law. You answered every question we asked of you and broke down the legal terminology in examples that we could better understand how it related to the charges. You kept us up to date with the process, and Shelley called (my son) before every event as a reminder. You patiently allayed my concerns and episodes of panic as a mother, answering questions, sometime more than once. You never promised us anything, but instead, gave us realistic options. There were moments where (the father) and I were thinking of just the here and now, but with your experience in these situations coupled with wanting to do what was best for (our son), we prevailed. If we ever hear of anyone in need of a DUI attorney we can genuinely say we know of an experienced and caring lawyer. Thank you both again for your guidance through this ordeal.”

He fought for me in front of a jury.
“I had a very complicated and difficult case, and a situation where the DUI looked like an ugly case I would never win. I had hired a different lawyer before changing to Chris, and was told there would be no way I could win this in a Jury Trial. When I hired Chris, I told him I wanted to fight this case until the very end, to make sure my life was not put in more jeopardy than it already was. When it came to trial by jury date, I watched two confident police officers fall apart under the pressure of Chris' questioning. He fought for me in front of a jury. The Jury came out with a decision so quickly that I was I not guilty, and I never had such a huge relief of a burden I have been stressing over a year when the DUI incident had happened. My DUI was dropped, and considered not guilty, all thanks to Chris!”

New driver's license just arrived!
“Hi Chris. My new driver's license just arrived, thanks to you! Thanks again for your awesome work!”

He stuck to his word every step of the way.
“Chris, Words cannot express how grateful I am for placing my case in your hands. When I began looking for lawyers to defend me on my DUI charge I really felt like any light at the end of the tunnel was beginning to disappear until my family and I met with Chris. Even though the initial meeting with him was supposed to be about the process and not focused on how to fight the charge my family and I left with much more knowledge and answers to questions we didn't even know we had, making it apparent to us we had found the right lawyer. Chris said he would do everything he could to defend me against the charge and stuck to his word every step of the way while keeping us informed of every action he was taking and every decision being made. I had never felt so much relief in my life until the day the case was dismissed. I can't imagine how things would have impacted my life if I had not placed my future in Chris' hands, and for that I have an infinite amount of gratitude towards him.”

I will always be indebted to Chris for his hard work
“On the day of my motions hearing, I watched two respected, competent, and very self-assured police officers all but crumble under the pressure of Chris' line of questioning and defense strategy. The district attorneys only witnesses' testimonies were reduced to stuttering and stammering incompetence on the stand in the wake of Chris' calculated uncovering of their lack of DUI law knowledge and their unethical practices in the field. The judge suppressed all relevant evidence gathered by these officers. Subsequently, the D.A.'s office was left with no choice but to volunteer an unconventional and highly desirable offer. Without Chris, the testimony would have been admitted as evidence and seen at trial as my word against that of two well established officers of the law. As a young professional, this win weighs heavily for my ability to move forward with my life, career, and goals. For this reason I will always be indebted to Chris for his hard work.”

Professional and made me feel at ease.
“I was very stressed and was not sure what to do. I called Cessna Law Office and spoke with Kimberly. She was very professional and made me feel at ease. She said she would have Chris call me to discuss my case. I was in good hands with Cessna Law. Attorney Chris called me and we discussed my case. I was charged with DUI and other charges. He was very professional and got all the details of my charges.The best decision I made was to hire Chris Cessna to represent me in court. He is an attorney I would hire again. Chris got the DUI and other charges dismissed, was only charged with a couple traffic violations. Thank you so much!”
-
I can never repay you for what you did.
“Chris, I cannot thank you enough, you saved my ability to have my kids that are into the outdoors and most importantly good citizens. You pointed out I am a good person to the court and it was with your good kind heart and outstanding demeanor that the courts agreed. I can never repay you for what you did.”

It was very clear his years of experience makes him one of the best criminal defense lawyers in the Denver metro.
“My experience with Mr. Cessna made a difficult time much smoother. He was always available to answer my barrage of questions. It was very clear his years of experience makes him one of the best criminal defense lawyers in the Denver metro. I would recommend Mr. Cessna to anyone that wants an involved lawyer that is always available to answer questions. As for the reviews that claim Mr. Cessna is not responsive are simply not true. Within hours of calling, we had many of questions answered and it relieved a lot of worry.”

Helping me to get the best result we could
“I was arrested for a DUI July 2014, I sought out Chris after I had had several unpleasant discussions with other attorneys. Chris was kind and was eager to help me. During the whole pre-arraignment period, Chris and his team were helpful and attentive to my needs and my situation. Due to extenuating circumstances I wasn't able to take my case to trial, but Chris was able to convince the DA and the Judge to give me the most minimal of judicial sentencing. I am very thankful for Chris and his team for helping me to get the best result we could.”
-
Chris Cessna is a life saver!
“Late in 2015 I was charged with a DUI, I decided to hire Chris Cessna and it turned out to be the best decision I made all year. I contacted his law office and was greeted by a friendly paralegal, she was extremely helpful, answered all of my questions and a short time later I was contacted by Chris himself. He was present at every court proceeding (even ones he could have easily sent a representative for) and handled my case personally, and he ended up getting the case against me dropped! I highly recommend Chris Cessna for any and all DUI and other criminal defense needs! You will be in excellent hands!!”

Expert DUI attorney
“Chris Cessna is a great cross-examiner and expert DUI attorney!”
-
I highly recommend Mr. Cessna.
“Chris was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the Colorado laws from his previous experiences and current field training in my particular case. He took the time to make sure each decision was well informed, and letting me know of each side of potential outcomes within each stage of the process. I was fortunate enough to win my case as Chris took the time to pick apart the prosecution and their errors. I highly recommend Chris for your case if you are ever in the situation.”
-
He kept me positive, and helped me fight my case.
“Let's just say I had a double case of incredible doubt that my case would ever win! But when I came to Chris, I just let my previous lawyer go, and I told him I know my case looks like I would have no fighting chance, but with all odds against me - I told him I wanted to fight, and he fought for me. I ended up winning my trial by jury case and my second case without having to go to court. I would highly recommend Chris. He kept me positive, and helped me fight my case. Outstanding lawyer and individual.”
-
Thank you so much!
“Thank you so much! I can't believe this year plus is finally finished. It almost feels surreal like I have more court. I can write you an add for your website and if there's a lawyer rating site I should go to let me know. I almost cried signing those documents really happy and you've been so helpful I'd recommend to anyone for how impossible my case seemed and it's over- such a blessing to have (her former attorney) quit and find you as stressed as I was! Thank you soo much!”

I was impressed with Chris.
“After researching Denver area DUI attorneys, I selected Chris Cessna to represent me in a very complex case. I was impressed with Chris due in large part to his background in law enforcement and prosecution of alcohol related driving offenses. As I came to more fully appreciate, Chris’ understanding of the legal system and ability to adapt to very fluid situations presented by that same legal system were even more impressive. First, through his representation in a license revocation hearing with DMV, Chris was successful in my retaining my driver privileges. More importantly, the legal defense strategy employed by Chris, and his recognition of when to “seize the moment” in court, resulted in a plea bargain to a non-alcohol related traffic offense. Chris has surrounded himself with a truly outstanding support staff. Haley Summers deserves special mention here. During the year and a half I was associated with Haley, I found her to be extremely client-focused, professional, positive, and thoroughly polished in her dealings with me. To Chris, Haley, and the rest of the Cessna Law Firm support staff I want to express my sincerest and deepest appreciation and thanks.”
-
I made the best possible choice when I came to you.
“Dear Chris, It is without a doubt that I made the best possible choice when I came to you to represent me for a third DUI I was faced with. Without your knowledge and expertise I dread to think what could have happened to me. It is because of you that my third DUI was reduced to a reckless driving ticket. Both you and Hayley were reliable, efficient, extremely competent, and provided some much needed support through a difficult time. I would recommend you to anyone who is in need of a DUI attorney. I would like to express my sincerest gratitude for everything you have done. My family and I cannot thank you enough for all your hard work.”
-
Hiring Chris Cessna was the best decision I could have made.
“After being hesitant regarding the cost and necessity of retaining an attorney for my case, I can now say that hiring Chris Cessna was the best decision I could have made. He and his staff handled the logistics and technicalities that are involved with the process that I could have never taken care of on my own. I took comfort in that a knowledgeable professional was handling my case and I could trust what needed to be done would be. I’m 100% satisfied with the outcome of my case and I have the Cessna Law Office to thank for it.”
-
I never had any doubts or concerns trusting you.
“Thanks for all of your help. Your professional attitude mixed with compassion for my anxiety made a difficult time easier. I never had any doubts or concerns trusting you with my case and I feel the outcome was reasonable and fair. I would recommend your services to anyone. Thanks Chris!”
-
Thanks for all the help and honest thoughts on my case.
“Thanks for all the help and honest thoughts on my case. Your honest opinions helped me to make correct decisions.”

I was so relieved with the outcome.
“I was so relieved with the outcome. This is what I asked of you from the initial consultation. I felt very good about how you put my legal defense and it showed up aggressively in court. Thanks.”

This note comes to express my gratitude.
“This note comes to express my gratitude to you for your kindness. Thank you for taking care of the matter for (my grandson). Considering what you saved him from, he seems to be looking at life a lot differently now. Thanks for everything.”

I would like to thank you for a job well done.
“I would like to thank you for a job well done. Good job. I'm so happy. Excellent job.”

Everything you did was of the highest quality.
“I want to thank you for the fine service that you provided for my son. Everything you did was of the highest quality, and we are deeply appreciative that you were able to help us in a time of need. I would and will recommend your services to anyone and will certainly call upon you again if the need arises.”
-
I am so glad that I met you.
“Thank you very much for all your help. I don't know how I can express my feelings and appreciation to you. It has been a long year for us - we went into depression and anger. Mr. Cessna, without you, we could have not done anything. YOU ARE THE BEST DUI ATTORNEY. You are not only a great attorney but also a great person. I am so glad that I met you. We hope to see you again. Once again, thank you very much, Mr. Cessna.”

Chris got me a deal that I never thought possible.
“Chris Cessna worked diligently and explored every avenue of defense pertaining to my case. Through his perseverance, Chris got me a deal that I never thought possible. Chris Cessna is not just an attorney; he is your friend and counselor in trying times.”
-
I just wanted to express my thanks to Chris Cessna.
“I just wanted to express my thanks to Chris Cessna for his help in a case in Aspen yesterday. He came in at the last moment when our planned expert bailed on us. We qualified Chris as an expert in SFSTs (standardized field sobriety tests), and he did a great job. Thanks again Chris.”
-
With your hard work, my charges were dismissed.
“This being my first experience dealing with a legal issue, I was very fearful and nervous to be facing DUI charges. I felt much better after speaking with you. Your background and experience with the law helped to put my mind at ease and focus on the details of the case. You gave me sound advice throughout the process. Without your diligence and willingness to comb through the details, I know the outcome would have not been favorable. Thank you so much for all the time and effort you put into defending me. With your hard work my charges were dismissed and I could not be happier. Even the DA’s Office of Weld County knows how “good” you are. I could not help but smile when I heard the DA tell the peace officer that Mr. Cessna “is on the ball and knows his stuff”. The DA could not have been more correct! You are hands down the best DUI lawyer and you truly care about the clients you serve. I will recommend you to anyone I know that needs legal assistance. Thank you again for all you have done on my behalf.”
-
I heard that you shined in court.
“I would like to send you a sincere note of appreciation for all you did for my son! After a year and a half of waiting, I heard that you shined in court. A friend of mine's son, who is an, attorney in Salida, CO, informed us you were the best, as long as the incident did not occur in Weld County! You did it anyway! Bless you Chris!”
-
We were very impressed with your professionalism.
“Thank you again so much for all of the hard work and time that you put into my case and trial. We obviously couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome and we were very impressed with your professionalism and presence in the courtroom. Thanks for everything, we will definitely pass your name along and we look forward to seeing you at the (restaurant) with your family!”
-
You are, without a doubt, the top-of-the-line defense attorney.
“Dear Chris, I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate everything you have done for us. Without you and your knowledge of the DUI laws we would never have been able to fight the injustices of our so-called "justice" system. You are, without a doubt, the top-of-the-line defense attorney for DUI charges. I hope and pray that we will never again need your services, but if we ever do I will call you first. Your kindness, compassion, and concern for my son meant so much to me. I will be forever grateful for all you have done. Please tell Haley we are also thankful to her and all of her help in this matter. The Cessna Law Firm is absolutely the best.”

Chris was up-front, honest & immensely knowledgeable.
“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Chris Cessna for his excellent representation in my son's DUI case. From the initial consultation through the successful culmination of the jury trial, Chris was up-front, honest and immensely knowledgeable. As a mother whose instinct is to protect her child, I felt confident that my son was in the best possible hands. During the trial process, I was amazed at this ability to "think on his feet" in response to each motion, ruling and testimony. From his attention to detail, both in his legal research and during the jury trial (he knew each potential juror's name and personal information with no written notes) to his thoroughness in "leaving no stone unturned", Chris was awesome! And with Chris Cessna as your attorney, not only will you get excellent legal representation, you will get someone who genuinely cares about the person, not just the case. Thanks, Chris.”
-
I really could not have asked for better legal counsel.
“I just wanted to let you know that Chris did a wonderful job in representing my interests over the past 10 months. I really could not have asked for better legal counsel and am very happy with his services and the outcome. He is a very skilled attorney in his chosen area of focus and I will recommend him to anyone who faces the same disposition as myself. Please pass on my gratitude to Chris (I would thank him via email but don't really have his email) and my best regards to his continued success. I thanked him in person, but feel it is necessary to thank him one last time. Also, if Chris is ever interested in trying to get individuals together for some type of action against the Colorado DMV, I would be more than happy to contribute both financially and personally. The "unprotected" class in this state needs to have a voice and the DMV is not playing fair at the moment. I don't imagine that will end until someone finds a way to get them into a real court of law.”
-
I have never worked with a more professional attorney.
“Chris was a blessing to me. I found myself in a tight spot and through his professionalism and knowledge of the law, as well as the best credentials in the state to serve me in the type of trouble I was facing; he was able to get me through the trials and tribulations associated with the legal system without a scratch. I have never worked with a more professional attorney. He served as an advocate and as a counsel. At no time was I concerned regarding the outcome of my case as Chris was confident and assuring and I knew that as long as I had him on my side, we would prevail. He has a wonderful personality and demonstrated excellent skills that I associate with a professional of his caliber, a good listener, excellent reasoning skills and creativity. If you are looking for an attorney that will serve you to the best of his ability that looks at you as a person and not a case, that is truly empathic, then I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Cessna. All my thanks to you sir as well as to Hayley. She was a dream with whom to work.”

No other attorney would have been able to do what you did.
“Dear Chris, I want to thank you again for everything that you did for me representing me in my DUI court case. As I told you when we were leaving the court house, I truly believe that your expertise in all facets of DUI law is the reason I was able to get such a great Plea Bargain, and that no other attorney would have been able to do what you did to get the DUI dismissed. My situation was dire, arrested for three things; 1. DUI (with an accident) 2. Leaving the Scene of an Accident 3. Careless Driving. All this with a new baby, an incredible job that supplies a company car, travel and tremendous benefits. To get convicted of a DUI would most likely cost me my job and affect my entire family since I am the sole provider. Bottom line, I could lose everything. I immediately researched DUI attorneys and called an interviewed with the top three. It was a tough decision because I knew I was placing my future in someone else's hands. After talking with Chris on the phone a couple times I made my choice and have never looked back. What I appreciated from the beginning was his honesty, not promising me anything but the assurance that he will do everything in his power to fight for me. His honesty, integrity and DUI expertise won me over. My case took a little over a year to get resolved and at the Motions Hearing when Chris put the arresting officer on the stand it was a thing of beauty. I mean straight out of a "Hollywood" movie. Chris dissected the facts and police reports, referred to other court case judgments. The DA looked lost, the Judge ruled in our favor, so the blood tests (1.61) and other DUI statements were not going to be admissible in court. So, the DA would not have a DUI case. I still remember after the Motions Hearing getting in the elevator and the arresting police officer congratulating Chris on doing an excellent job! Again, they could still get me with "Leaving the Scene of an Accident" and "Careless Driving", both would be enough points (16 pts) to have me lose my license. About two weeks later Chris came back with a Plea Bargain from the DA, they dropped everything, except I would need to plead to an 8 point Reckless Driving ticket. If you are reading this then I truly know what you're going through and I can only offer you my referral and for your sake I hope you hire the best: Chris Cessna.”

Goes above and beyond the normal call of duty.
“Chris is a wonderful lawyer who goes above and beyond the normal call of duty. He was able to get a DWAI charge fully dismissed in my case and made it very painless to accomplish that. I spent a total of 2 hours in court through a 3 month period, which in my opinion is unheard of in DUI cases in the state of Colorado. Chris worked diligently and had more patience than most people I have met in my lifetime. I would refer Chris to everyone I know in a DUI situation that wanted correct and valuable representation.”

I was completely satisfied with the representation.

Please accept my thanks for the way you treated me.

You fought my case with my future as your top priority.
“I wanted to take a moment to show my appreciation for what you have done for me. Joining the Coast Guard wasn't even part of my case. You found that out on your own when you took the time to get to know a little about me. Not as a client, but because you wanted to. Then you went out of your way and didn't just fight my case; you fought it with my future as your top priority. My son and I did not have six months to wait for our lives to get on track. You made it possible so that we did not have to wait, and my goal of joining the Coast Guard could begin right away. I can't begin to thank you enough for all that you have done for me.”

I would definitely use him again.

He traveled to Kansas from Denver to assist us in this case.
“Chris was very professional and helpful in traveling to Kansas from Denver to assist us in this case. Great job.”

You took my case more seriously than I did.
“I do appreciate everything you did for me. You took my case more seriously than I did. Thank you for all of your help.”
-
I will definitely retain you again.
“Chris, I have been very impressed with you. I feel that you are an excellent attorney and if I am in need of legal advice in the future, I will definitely retain you again.”

He was worth every penny.
“When I first met Chris, he was so busy that we could only talk by phone not in person. I must admit I was a little concerned about hiring an attorney that I had never met in person. It turned out it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. If you are looking for an attorney that will mercilessly fight for you through the courts on a DUI charge Chris is that attorney. He specializes in DUI law and with the courts being as politicized as they are today you need an attorney like Chris to balance the odds that are so very against you. In my case Chris was to get my multi-offense DUI reduced to a reckless driving which I might add was above and beyond what I expected. You may find Chris to be a little more money than some of the others but in my opinion and he was worth every penny.”

I am very grateful and would recommend.
“I don't have enough words to properly express my extreme gratitude regarding my unique case and your applied skill – training – experience and knowledge of the law. I am in debt to you as my career would have been nothing short of "over" upon conviction. I made a huge mistake, but your persistence – focus and listening to my concerns was nothing short of brilliant. I have never been afraid of spending money on quality and in this case I absolutely got what I paid for. You were always very clear – straightforward with your plans regarding my case and never over committed to anything. I am very grateful and would recommend your services at any time this type of discussion was brought up. Thank you again.”

Trial attorney whose reputation spans decades.
“What a client deserves in exchange for the cost of good representation is a trial attorney whose reputation spans decades and across hundreds of miles of distance. In my experience Chris Cessna's presence in two separate cases, taking place in two counties, in different areas and cultures here in Colorado, was the difference between inevitable jail time and an end result of wiping my record clean. There is no better service of instilling confidence for a defendant than when a judge and team of district attorneys knows your lawyer's name and scope of expertise before you ever step foot in the courtroom.”

I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Cessna.
“First, to thank you for your skillful representation. Your artful cross examination proved to be the keystone for dismissal of charges against me. I cannot thank you enough for removing the anguish of having several charges looming over me. I feel very fortunate to have found you when I did. The second reason is to offer a testimonial to the expert legal services that you provide to your clients. My first reaction was to hire one of the heavily marketed firms that specialize in DUI charges. After two meetings and several thousand dollars I came to the conclusion that their heart wasn't in it, and a friend referred me to Mr. Cessna. Without making this too long, Chris has passion, he calmly and boldly cross-examined the arresting officer into a corner and my charges were dismissed at the motions hearing. I don't believe there are many attorneys out there that could of handled it as well. I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Cessna to anyone who needs an experienced and adept attorney.”

Chris displayed a genuine concern for my personal comfort.
“I am extremely thankful to Chris Cessna and his legal team for their professionalism, expertise, and overall dedication to my DUI case. Chris displayed a genuine concern for my personal comfort with his counsel as well as my understanding of the charges against me. Throughout the two year long process he constantly reminded me of my rights and offered his expert advice regarding the next steps in the legal proceedings. During my trial Chris was prepared and exhibited such a strong understanding of the law that jury reached a NOT GUILTY verdict in less then one hour. As an corporate executive it was imperative that I have a clean driving record, so I am very thankful that I had Chris Cessna in my corner. I highly recommend the Law office of Christopher H. Cessna to anyone facing any drinking and driving legal matters.”

Completely honest attorney.
“After researching several lawyers, many conference calls, and reading of other client testimonials I decided that Chris Cessna was my best option. He was the one lawyer who told you how it was, no fluff, no empty promises; unlike the others who rambled on about themselves and how many years they have been in practice, how many cases they won etc. Not Chris, he took the time and had a sensitive ear to my story, to my circumstances and wanted to see what he could do to help me get through this. He didn't treat my case like it was a "cookie cutter" just like all the rest. Because when it comes down to it, they are all different. Your case may be similar to mine, but depending on who upset the DA that morning or who made the judge mad that day can mean all the difference in the world, so having a lawyer on your side who understands your case and what it means to you to have a good outcome gives a sense of comfort as you go through this horrible ordeal in your life. I'm not going to say it was easy or not stressful, but Chris helped make it better. His vast knowledge of the court systems, current DUI laws and his ability to think outside of the box helped me to get my DUI charge dismissed. It was the best news I could have hoped for as it meant I could keep my job and still provide for my family. I am forever grateful for his help in getting me a great outcome to my case.”

Chris Cessna is an expert at what he does.
“My father, who is an attorney, had a co-worker suggest Chris Cessna to my DUI case. When we first met with Chris, we knew he was the perfect fit. He was intelligent, knew the justice system, and was willing to lay down all my options on how the case could unfold. From the start, he was very understanding and built a personal relationship with me. He wanted the court to see that I had accomplished things in my life and was not entitled to the DUI that I had been charged with in 2012. During, the entire year of working on my case, Chris was professional, always emailed me back, even on his free time to answer a question! He would always respond and gave me information about my case when he was updated by the DA. Further, Chris did an outstanding performance in the court room. He knew how to professionally present the facts and represent the client. Chris not only always kept me in the loop about my case, but he got my DUI dropped. He was able to prove by suggesting re-testing blood work, getting DRE experts, and medical doctors to write documentation about my condition. Chris got me the justice I deserved. I am very happy and thanked him many times for helping me through such a difficult time and helping me get justice. Furthermore, Shelly, his receptionist was always polite, responded to voicemails on a timely fashion, and always sent me notifications about my case weeks ahead of time. She always kept track of billing in a very professional way because she always made sure if I made a payment I had a receipt. She was organized and extremely friendly. If I ever need legal help again, I would without a doubt go back to Chris. I suggest him and will continue to because he is an outstanding lawyer that actually cares about you and your case. Chris Cessna is an expert at what he does and I highly suggest hiring him for legal help.”

I have Mr. Cessna on speed dial.
“I'd like to take a few minutes and tell you about how wonderful Mr. Cessna was to work with... My situation with the law happened the weekend before I had to fly out of town for a week. While out of town on business, I received countless phone calls from the cops stating that there was a warrant out for my arrest. Of course, I totally freaked out, I did not have a lawyer on retainer and did not know what to do next. I've always been told NEVER speak to the cops without a lawyer on your side! My girl friend back in Denver immediately started researching law firms online and she had conversations with several lawyers before getting to Mr. Cessna's practice. Out of the other 5-6 lawyers she spoke with, Mr. Cessna made her feel at ease as he spent time on the phone answering questions and giving her the re-assurance that everything was going to be fine. After a day full of meetings on my part, Mr. Cessna scheduled a phone call with me, spending over 30 minutes (AT NO CHARGE), explaining the next course of action that I should take. He never once pressured me into hiring him for my case, he only explained the facts and answered about 1,000 worried questions that I had at the time. I DID decide to retain Mr. Cessna for my case and I have to say that it was the best money I have ever spent. Not only did my charges get thrown out, Chris made it happen on my very first court date. I certainly hope that I never run into trouble again in the future, but if I do...for anything, I have Mr. Cessna on speed dial. If you need a great lawyer that knows BOTH sides of the law, I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Cessna and his practice! Thank you, Mr. Cessna for ALL of your help!!!”
