I started my career as a lawyer working for the insurance companies.  I left that job to represent injured folks because I wanted to represent people and not an industry.  After spending many years and many hundreds of cases working with a partner, I am now on my own.  Because I am now able to make the decisions, I choose to keep my client load low so that I can give every case every bit of attention and energy that it deserves.  It took me eleven years to finally get to where I am now, representing real people with real needs.  I could not be prouder and would be honored to talk to you about your case.

I specialize in complex litigation for those people who have been accused of crimes.  I handle all criminal matters from traffic tickets to homicides and everything in between.  I believe in listening to my clients and trying to get the results that they are looking for.

I live in Boulder and have practiced law here and along the front range since graduating from CU law school. I  am experienced in trials, negotiations and mediation, and have completed the training as a Child and Family Investigator, and am also a mediator.  For 15 years I was an adjunct professor at the University of Colorado School of Law.

I have retired. For assistance, please contact Battan Alpert Hutchings LLP

I have reprsented hundreds of people accused of crimes and traffic violations in Colorado. I pride myself on giving every client the individual time and attention they deserve. Every case is different and every resolution should be tailored to meet the needs of the client.

I have been in private practice, based in Boulder, since 2012. During that time, my practice has focused on criminal defense. I discovered criminal defense as a student at the University of Colorado School of Law, where I represented people charged with crimes through the criminal defense clinic and as an intern at the Boulder public defender's office. After graduating from law school, I worked at the Adams County public defender's office representing people charged with crimes ranging from DUI to First Degree Murder. I have done over fifty jury trials and many more contested hearings. I take pride in my experience and reputation as an aggressive trial lawyer, but I take equal pride in my experience and reputation as a creative and sensitive negotiator.. It is my privilege to act as an advocate for people who are facing the difficult journey of being charged with a crime. My greatest satisfaction comes from helping my clients through that journey in an intelligent and empowering way.

I grew up in a middle class, hard-working family in Anchorage, Alaska, where I learned to camp, fish, ski, and enjoy the outdoors.  I was raised to tell the truth, work hard and do your best - always.  These character traits guide me to this day.  I graduated in the top 10% of my class at East Anchorage High School in 1983, was a member of the National Honor Society, and was a multi year letterman in baseball, track, football, and speech and debate.. Seeking a warmer climate and a top notch education, I traveled south to Southern California to attend the Univerity of California, San Diego.  In 1988, I graduated from UCSD with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and a minor in Economics.  I earned Departmental Honors in Political Science.  I was a member and officer of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity, played intercollegiate baseball and track, and participated in a variety of intramural sports.  As a debate team champion in high school, I was disappointed when I learned there was no speech and debate club at UCSD.  So, along with others, I started one.  I was the sole student representative for the design and buildout of the UCSD Student Center, which remains a central building and student gathering place on the campus today.. After undergraduate, I attended the University of San Diego Law School and graduated in 1991 with a Juris Doctorate.  I earned an American Jurisprudence Award in Trial Advocacy.  I worked my way through law school as a law clerk with litigation firms in San Diego specializing in personal injury.  After passing the California Bar exam in 1991, I joined a small, boutique business and litigation firm in La Jolla, California, where the senior partner selected me as the lead litigator after 6 months.. I moved to Boulder, Colorado in 1992 and started my own law firm, which is now the Tenge Law Firm, LLC.  We have been in business for 18 years.  I have always focused on personal injury, business and civil litigation and insurance.  However, since 2006, we have limited our practice to litigation, with an emphasis on personal injury and insurance matters.  We have earned a reputation as one of the premier personal injury and insurance law firms in Boulder County.  Countless medical providers refer their patients to our Firm because they know they will be provided expert representation in a personal, individualized manner.  Frankly, when a law firm does a great job for an injury client, it ensures that the medical providers get paid.. The Tenge Law Firm is a boutique injury litigation firm specializing in personal injury and insurance cases.  It is all we do.  Period.  We provide aggressive, diligent and extremely thorough representation for injury victims and their families.  Your case will be handled by me personally.  TLF paralegals are highly qualified, experienced, thorough, and personable (otherwise, they would not be with the Tenge Law Firm).. We maintain a reasonable number of selective cases so we can provide the utmost attention to the details of every case, and take care of our clients personally.  We don't advertise on television and we aren't running a personal injury "mill".  Each case matters. We don't have the pressure to accept "low ball" setttlement offers in order to feed our ad budget.  Most of our clients seek our help as a result of a personal referral.. The Tenge Law Firm uses innovation, knowlege and advanced technology to take on the insurance companies and obtain the just and fair compensation our clients deserve.  We communicate effectively and regularly with our clients, and return emails and phone calls promptly.  We enjoy helping injured folks.. When I'm not fighting the insurance companies and their "Evil Empire", I enjoy spending time with my lovely wife and 2 beautiful daughters, fly fishing, working out, cycling and playing guitar.

I graduated from Arizona State University in 2006 with my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Spanish Language. In 2011, I received my Juris Doctor degree from the Phoenix School of Law. After graduation, I moved to Boulder and am admitted to practice law in both Colorado and Arizona.. After moving to Colorado I gained experience in criminal law working as an associate criminal defense attorney. I appeared in court across the state on a daily basis. Being bi-lingual was a tremendous asset as my clients were primarily Spanish speaking. In 2013, I began an apprenticeship at Willoughby and Associates, a premier family law firm in downtown Denver.. I have experience not only in complex dissolution cases but also in same sex adoption, gender and name changes and grandparent rights.. I joined the Burnhaw Law Firm, P.C. in August, 2014 as an associate practicing Domestic Relations.. I handle dissolutions and post-decree matters and enjoy being a source of comfort and guidance to families going through difficult times. I am sensitive to client’s needs while still firmly managing their expectations.. When I am not busy helping Colorado families, I may be found hiking, learning my Husband’s native language, Farsi, and baking one-of-a-kind birthday cakes for family and friends.. I give back to the community by volunteering annually as a judge for Colorado Mock Trial competitions.

I enjoy living in Colorado with my family and helping clients throughout the state. Enjoying the beautiful outdoors with my family and dog, volunteering on my homeowner's association, volunteering on the Board of a local real estate professional group and teaching fill up my free time. Having a journalism and English literature degree, I also enjoy reading.

I became an attorney in order to protect the rights of ordinary citizens accused of crimes.  My practice has always been limited to criminal defense because I believe that a criminal accusation is a life-changing event, and that unwavering defense against criminal charges is best accomplished by an attorney whose legal career has been dedicated to criminal defense.  I know that criminal charges can affect everything from your family life, to your permanent record, to your professional security.  I believe that good legal representation includes more than just knowledge of the law.  A good lawyer must be a good listener, willing to work cooperatively with clients to help define their goals and create a roadmap to reach them.

I am passionnate about fighting for the rights of my clients. I deeply care about each client I represent and work tirelessly for justice. I represent people who have been seriously injured by the negligence of others. I fight insurance companies who refuse to take responsibility and own up the their promises to take care of our clients. I have three other law partners who are all dedicated to the profession of law. Together, we are a force to be reckoned! Yet, we are still a small boutique lawfirm who give each client hands on representation.

I am a personal injury attorney practicing in Boulder, Colorado. I handle all aspects of cases from intake through appeal and concentrate in auto accidents, bicycling accidents, premise liability, and trucking accidents.My clients are important to me. Once I meet them, I want them to feel as though their burden is now my burden. I take care of their legal case so that they can focus on themselves and their health.
