Criminal Defense is a very broad term and can cover everything from petty offenses in municipal court all the way to serious felony matters in District Court. The good news is we handle all of it. We work to ensure clients have effective and efficient criminal defense no matter what level of offense they are charged with. Because although it may not be a life or death case for us, it’s still our client’s lives and we care about their well-being!

I have extensive experience in matters involving Domestic Violence, or “DV.” I have taught courses on strangulation and different types of family violence and was even a member of the DV Fatality Review Committee in Denver when I was a prosecutor.

Colorado law treats your dog or cat like property, but we know they’re family. Whether you’re facing criminal charges over an animal incident or someone won’t return your pet, you need an attorney who knows this area inside and out. We don’t just dabble in animal law. We teach it, including training prosecutors and police on these cases.
- Animal cruelty and neglect charges (misdemeanor and felony)
- Animal hoarding, large-scale seizures, and search warrant cases
- Dog bite and dangerous dog cases
- Replevin: getting your pet back from an ex, roommate, family member, or rescue
Please note: We do not handle housing discrimination, service animal, or emotional support animal (ESA) issues, or landlord-tenant and housing disputes of any kind.
