Though it is possible to represent yourself in a criminal case, many dangers outweigh the benefits of being a pro se litigant (the official title of self-representation). The internet can provide some good, high-level information to help you better understand aspects of your criminal case, but sole reliance on it to prepare you to defend your own case comes with serious risks.

The reality is that any ‌criminal matter will not only involve the application of the law but also a deep understanding of the facts of the case and a strategic approach to presenting those facts in a defense proceeding. An even greater risk of relying solely on the web for legal research is that published information can become outdated. Laws change, both through legislation and case law, and not all websites will update their content to reflect all such changes.

When it comes to showing up in court and arguing your case, you must also face the rules of criminal procedure, the judge, and the opposing counsel. Unless you’ve actually got experience appearing in court, filing documents with the court, etc., the stress alone of figuring this part out could derail an otherwise decent defense. You stand to lose a lot of credibility with a jury when it’s clear you don’t have your act together in the courtroom.

So, how does representation from our Arapahoe and/or Denver criminal defense lawyers differ from self-representation?
Well, for starters, we’re experienced. Our attorneys have been practicing for years, and in doing so, we have dedicated our careers to being fluent in the areas of law in which we practice. Our attorneys take updated informational courses (CE or Continuing Education) to remain constantly aware of the issues we cover.

Aside from being experienced criminal defense attorneys, we’re also devoted and diligent lawyers. We don’t treat our clients like they’re just another case number. When you hire us to defend you, we understand that you’re trusting us with your livelihood. You can rely on us not only as attorneys but also as human beings who understand the difficulty and complexity of your case. With this in mind, we work hard to provide the best defense possible.

The Cost of Criminal Defense in Denver, Colorado

A question you may have for us at the Colorado Lawyer Team is: why do we charge what we do?

Although this can become a complex answer, here are five basic points:

Our fee structure can vary from flat rate to hourly, with or without a retainer. We assess a case to determine how much legal research is involved, how much drafting is involved, and how much active negotiation with the opposing party is involved.

Our fees may increase when we go to court. Going to court to represent you involves making representations to the judge, the court staff, the other lawyers, the witnesses, and even the jury. This is our credibility; this is our livelihood. We have to prepare legal arguments and analyze the facts of your case extensively before going to court.

Our fees reflect our experience as attorneys. All of our attorneys have been practicing for a long time. We charge more (but not above average) because we have spent years becoming experts in the areas of law in which we practice.

Our fees are lower than other prestigious lawyers. We are also a smaller firm, unlike the big law firms employing over 50 legal professionals. We also run a virtual law office, meaning you have access to us nearly 100% of the time via email, phone, and text.

Our fees ensure we can tell a client we’ll be there every step of the way. We will tell you what we should worry about and what we shouldn’t.
