Top best R Lawyers in Denver | 6035 available

If you are looking for tenatious and determined lawyer to represent you in bankruptcy or other debt related matters, call me today. I pride myself on responding promptly to your phone calls and e-mails and making your problems my priority.  As an attorney at Skeen & Skeen, P.C., I handle all aspects of litigation arising in the course of bankruptcy. Our firm handles cases for debtors, creditors, and chapter 7 trustees from all over Colorado. I specialize in adversary proceedings and contested matters such as avoidance actions, relief from stay, recovery of property, and objections to discharge. You've got difficult, complicated money problems. You've found the right lawyer.

If you are charged with a DUI or DUID, or other criminal charges,I can help you. I limit my practice to defending people, just like you, charged with Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol and Drugs (marijuana). I defend people charged with drug charges, assaults, domestic violence, vehicular homicides and vehicular assaults, and all other criminal cases.. Over the years I have both defended clients and prosecuted defendants so I understand what the prosecuter in your case is thinking.  I first "work your case", which means I look at every angle and every piece of evidence in your case. I have been successful in trying cases to jury trials and also dealing with prosecutors in getting the very best plea for my client.  This includes dismissals, Reckless Driving, Deferred Judgement and Sentence (DJS), DWAI, and other outcomes.. There are many ways you can "win" with your DUI case.  Sometimes a person has a record of prior "DUI" convictions and if we cannot beat the evidence in your case, then getting very little jail and work release is what that client considers a "win" in his/her case.  Also, there are other ways to win.  You can go to trial and win and get acquitted; or you can get a "Non-Alcohol" result such as a plea to Careless Driving or Reckless Driving.  I have gotten many of these for my clients.  Also, there is a "Deferred Judgment and Sentence" in some jurisdictions which means that after you do the treatment and other requirements, the Court will DISMISS your case.. There is a lot of evidence to look at in a DUI case.  What makes your case different from a "criminal case" is that much of the evidence in your case is science based.  That is why I go to DUI science based trainings and am a member of the College of Drunk Driving Defense and a founding member of the DUI Defense Lawyers Association.  These provide specialized training to be able to defend YOU.. There is an important part of your defense that needs a good criminal lawyer.  I have been also practicing criminal law for years.  I will look at how the law enforcement officer "stopped" your car (4th Amendment violation), if the officer "interviewed you while in custody" (Miranda Rights), and determine if there really was "probable cause" to arrest you.. The invisible factor that I have is I am tenacious and determined to give you the very best DUI defense that I can.  Many times I have driven to court early in the morning just to add my client's case on the Court docket so I can address something in your case that needed immediate attention.  You don't know that because you are home asleep or at work.  It is going the extra mile that I do for my clients because you deserve that extra mile.. I earned my Masters in rehabilitation counseling and worked with substance abuse populations before going to law school.  This gives me an insightful perspective on alcohol and drug offenses that few lawyers possess.  I know this is a very stressful time for you and I do everything I can to help you through this and give you excellent legal direction.

I've focused on employment law since my second year in law school.  I work with people who need help with handling problems with their current or former employers.  I am happy to help if you've experienced difficulty obtaining family or medical leave, had problems receiving wages or employment benefits, or if you've experienced discrimination, harassment, or retaliation.

I've been representing construction professionals for over 20 years and am frequently called up on to help them navigate complex contract negotiations and assist with licensing requirements, mechanic's liens, risk management, insurance coverage, bond claims, and dispute resolution. I'm known for my pragmatic approach to problem-solving.

I'm originally from Tulsa, Oklahoma and live in the beautiful mountain west states, Colorado and Arizona.. I'm licensed in Colorado and Arizona and have over 23 years of experience helping companies, investors and entrepreneurs with commercial real estate deals, transactions, complex leasing matters and general business law.. When I am not practicing law, I spend as much time as possible enjoying the outdoors, museums and cultural activities and relaxing with my English bulldogs, Moe & Nugget.

I'm an attorney who loves protecting people's rights, challenging the government, resisting illegal police conduct, going to trial, and hearing jurors say the words "not guilty." I also use my years of legal experience and training to come up with creative legal arguments and theories to win cases.  While police and prosecutors look for the worst in people, my life is spent looking for, finding, and showing others the best in those people.  To me, few things are more fulfilling than getting to zealously advocate for my clients and their rights and interests.. My expertise, opinions, legal work, and cases have also received attention by many within the Colorado media.  An example from THE DENVER POST is here:

I'm a Denver based firm, practicing in the areas of: Social Security Disability, Mesothelioma and Asbestos claims, Wills and Estate Planning, Corporate Formation, Landlord Assistance and Property Management and Residential Real Estate Transactions.

I'd love to help you with your:. ~ Estate and Tax Planning (Wills, Trusts, Powers of Attorney, and Health Directives or Living Will). ~ Asset Protection, Wealth Preservation and Wealth Transfer Strategies. ~ Trust or Estate Administration. ~ Small Business Matters and Succession Planning. ~ Special Needs Planning and Advising for Disabilities. ~ Devising Strategies to Reduce Taxes or Protect Assets From the Cost of Long Term Care. ~ Charitable Planning.

I write motions, appellate briefs, amicus briefs, petitions for postconviction relief, and petititions for writ of certiorari to advocate for my clients on appeal and in postconviction proceedings.

I was raised in Colorado Springs, Colorado, received a B.A. in Political Science from Trinity University, and a J.D. from the University of practice focuses on real estate, partnerships and corporations, and business transactions, and he has extensive experience in: real estate title, due diligence, financing, acquisition, sale, annexation, zoning, subdivision, development, vertical construction, and leasing; the sale and acquisition of small businesses; and formation, structuring and general matters of partnerships and other entities

I was born in Port Arthur, Texas and raised in the Golden Triangle of Texas.  I completed my B.S. degree from Auburn University after only 2 1/2 years of study.  I began working as a police officer at 21 years old.  I was a college professor with two masters degrees at age 26.  By age 30, I was finishing law school.  I have since completed a third masters degree and defended over 2000 people who have been accused of crimes.  My experience as a defense lawyer includes over 100 jury trials.. Outside of my law practice, I am actively involved in fitness.  I have practiced Gracie Jiu Jitsu for 13 years.  I am very competitive and I fight for my clients in court the way I fight on the jiu jitsu mat.  I use my knowledge, creativity, and experience to get the best results for my clients.

I was admitted to the practice of Law in 1974. In the 44 years since then I have devotedmy career to representing folks who have been put upon by the powers of the State and Federal Government. My clients most often face the loss of their property, freedom as well as the Death Pemalty. I work tirelessly to protect them against the inexhaustible resourse of the government and get them home safe as quickly as possible.. I was a bad alcoholic and cocaine abuser for a number of years.  Through good luck and tremendoul outpouring of love and support from my family, friends and the profession I have been given reprieve from that hell for close to 15 years. Now in my life and work I am well suited to understand and advocate for those who are still suffering the consequences of their bad choices and addictions. I devote as much time and energy as it takes to be of assistance to suffering members of my profession.. I am an avid skier. I was a member of the National Ski Patrol when I was In College. I was a ski racer and a member of the USSA for many years.. I am an avid horseman. I have been a member of the Roundup Riders of the Rockies for a number of years.  I have played polo for 30 years and a member of the USPA .  I have been a mounted fox hunter for 30 years and member of the MFHA.  I also enjoy show jumping.. I am an avid hunter. My favorite is upland game. I also enjoy Mountain hiking and climbing.. I enjoy restoring old cars.. I owned and operated a working Navaho Churro sheep ranch in San Miguel county New Mexico for 20 years.

I want my clients to know from the first time we speak how much I care about them and their case. I practice criminal defense because no one's life should be defined by their worst day, and because everyone has value and an important story to tell. Turning those values and that compassion into a zealous defense is at the core of the service Power Law provides.. I practice holistic criminal defense. This means that I not only strategically defend a client in the case they hire me for, but I will address any underlying concerns while we work together and set my clients up for success. I have extensive experience with cases involving mental health and substance use issues.. In addition to criminal defense, I am passionate about criminal justice policy reform and access to mental health, and I am involved in a number of organizations and projects to further those goals.

I started my legal career nine years ago in the Dallas/Fort Worth area as a solo practitioner helping clients with a broad range of problems including employment law claims, personal injury, family law and consumer law. The focus of my practice was primarily plaintiff-side litigation where I had the opportunity to help individuals and families stand up against entities that had a lot more money, power and presence than my clients. We live in a society where there are very few resources to help fight for justice and fight for a fair stake and even fewer job opportunities where you can earn a living fighting the good fight. Plaintiff-side legal work is one of the rare opportunities to earn a living fighting for a more just society.. As time went on and I refined my skills as a litigator I also refined the focus of my practice to spend less time on family law and consumer law and more time on employment law and personal injury. You don't have to drive far or watch much television in Texas to know there are a lot of personal injury attorneys but there are far fewer employment lawyers practicing plantiff-side who seriously delve into this highly technical area of law as more than a side hustle. I decided to narrow my practice to these two areas to better utilize my expertise and skills.. After spending thirty-five years in Texas my wife and I decided it was time for a new adventure and packed our bags and headed to Denver, Colorado. Once settled and licensed in Colorado I sought out employment with a firm. While I enjoyed the freedom of solo practice, I missed the commraderie of a larger workplace. Working in a larger firm meant more resources to tackle larger problems and more complex claims that are sometimes difficult to do from a single desk. I've spent my time here practicing exclusively personal injury, continuing to fight for plaintiffs against insurance companies who work very hard to take advantage of injured Coloradans.

I serve as Managing Partner of Kilpatrick Townsend in China. My practice focuses on intellectual property litigation and counseling. I work with clients in such diverse fields as electronics, semiconductor manufacturing and development, software, telecommunications, transportation, entertainment, retail and consumer goods, and financial transactions. I have extensive experience in all aspects of federal district court litigation and International Trade Commission (ITC) investigations and trials.. As a registered patent attorney, I also specialize in post-grant proceedings before the United States Patent Office, having served as lead counsel in over 30 inter partes review (IPR) proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).. I was one of only eight foreign lawyers in China named as a top litigator in 2018 by IAM Patent 1000 – The World's Leading Patent Practitioners. I was recognized by The Best Lawyers in America® for Patent Litigation in 2017 and 2018 and for both Patent Litigation and Intellectual Property Litigation in 2019 and 2020. I was named a 2018 "Top Litigator" by Law Week Colorado. I was recognized as a Colorado “Super Lawyer” for Intellectual Property Litigation in 2019, having been previously named a Colorado “Rising Star” six times by Super Lawyers magazine.. I also represent foreign parents, often on a pro bono basis, in international child abduction cases under the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. I have served as lead counsel in multiple trials resulting in the successful return of illegally retained children to their home countries.. Before joining the firm, I completed a federal clerkship with the Honorable Robert C. Jones of the United States District Court for the District of Nevada.. Prior to joining the legal profession, I worked as a software engineer for one of the nation’s largest technology companies, developing cutting-edge design automation tools for VLSI microprocessor design. I also worked as a researcher for the National Institute of Science and Technology in Boulder, Colorado, conducting research into next-generation wireless standards and measurement techniques.

I represent injured clients who were hurt because of another’s negligence or intentional conduct. I have dedicated myself to understanding the unique needs of my clients following an injury including current and future medical and rehabilitation needs, financial needs resulting from work loss or diminished working capacity, and personal and emotional needs.. I understand that an injury affects not just you but your entire family, and I strive to tell your story and give you back your voice.

I really love my job. I am able to spend each day helping honest Coloradans gain freedom from crushing debt, and all the stress that comes with it, or guiding my clients through the maze of immigration laws and regulations to lawful immigration status or citizenship. It's a joy to find such meaning in your work.. As a practicing attorney since 2007, I've been fortunate to have helped my clients navigate through over 2,000 chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcies, and fought for settlements for many clients who were unlawfully harassed to pay a discharged debt after they filed for bankruptcy relief. I've also helped obtain employment- and family-based immigration and citizenship benefits for scores of clients. I'm also proud to have taught at legal education seminars on various issues, from chapter 13 practice, to immigration-related employer sanctions, to law firm management.. I’m not a Colorado native, but like they say I got here as fast as I could! I graduated from CU-Boulder with a Bachelor’s in Religious Studies and Anthropology, and received my J.D. from the University of Houston Law Center. After graduating law school, my family – Brooke, Soren and Amelia – and I moved back to the Denver area, where I practiced immigration law with Ann Allott and bankruptcy law with Sharon Grossenbach before opening my own firm.. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family (the 2- and 4-legged varieties), running, finding (and drinking) great Colorado beer, cheering on the Nuggets & Rockies, playing poker, and reading history and science books.

I primarily represent people who are injured because of the negligence of others.. Most of our cases are for cleints who were hurt in as a result of another's careless while walking, riding a bicycle, riding a motorcycle or driving a car.. In addition, I ride bicycles and advocate for the interests of injured cyclists.  Here are links for a website for bicycle lawyers that I am proud to be a part of.. and

I practice law as a member of Askman Law LLC. My litigation practice includes representing clients in the firm’s environmental, tribal and natural resource practice areas, as well as litigating general civil matters such as breach of contract and other business claims, health and employment law matters, and regulatory issues. I am also committed to representing pro bono clients. Before joining Askman Law LLC, I was a commercial litigation associate in an international law firm’s New York office and a national law firm’s Denver office. I am authorized to practice law in Colorado and New York.

I operate under the principle that clients always come first. Whether helping an accident victim recover compensation in a car accident case, truck accident case or injuries from nursing home neglect, I am wholeheartedly dedicated to exhausting every available resource to help my clients get the money they deserve. At the firm, I focus my practice on auto accidents, truck accidents, personal injury cases and workers’ compensation law. My trial results speak for themselves with verdicts ranging from 3.7 million in a nursing home negligence case to a $770,000 verdict against a trucking compnay. Both case were featured on the news.. I have been selected by my peers as having an "AV" rating and as a Super Lawyer. I have also been recognized as one of the top 100 trial lawyers in Colorado.. I have served as a guest lecturer in a variety of seminars and has served on the Board of the American Trial Lawyers Association in the past. My other professional affiliations include the Workers’ Compensation Education Association and The American Association of Justice. I provide regular instruction for other lawyers regarding car accident cases and workers’’ compensation.. I invite you to call me to discuss your situation at no cost.

I love practicing law because I love people and because, to me, the highest calling of an attorney is to make sure that our system of justice works for everyone in our society.  As a plaintiff's attorney I represent individuals, often against powerful and wealthy corporations and insurance companies.  That this is possible, thanks to the American jury system, is part of the American dream.

I love helping entreprenuers.  My focus areas are in the protection of intellectual property and business assets. EmergeCounsel's clients are worldwide. Our TotalTM® and Amazon Sellers services provide trademark guidance, search, appeals of office actions and denials, and trademark monitoring and enforcement at flat, affordable rates. EmergeCounsel also has an extensive network of professionals who provide co-counsel and services in taxation, patents, accounting, bookkeeping, marketing, copywriting and editing, financing, and more.

I left the Public Defender’s office almost 5 years ago to enter private practice because there were things I couldn’t do for my clients as a Public Defender – either due to a lack of time or resources. I wanted to be able to commit more time and energy to my individual clients’ cases, while utilizing all the tools I learned as a public defender.. If you want a legal bulldog on your side, please call me at. I can’t wait to meet with you so we can fight the system together.

I learned from an early age what the power of the state can do to a family. I know from personal experience that the justice system is not always just. I never lived in an ivory tower, and I do not want to live in one. I know that innocent people are accused of crimes every day. I apologize to no one for the work I have done for the wrongly accused. It is my job to fight for you. I will not sleep until I get justice for you. I truly love our justice system, but the people I have known in my personal and professional life and the people I have represented as a defense attorney have proven to me that while our system is broken, my skills as a defense attorney can truly make a difference. I am passionate about defending the accused because I know that I can even the odds. I can create justice where it did not exist before. There is no case too small. There is no person accused by the state I won’t use my gift to help. I am dedicated to defending each of my clients as if they were a member of my family, and I chose to partner with Daniel Mossinghoff because I know he will do the same.. I had the opportunity to take advantage of my athletic abilities coming out of high school, but I was single minded in my desire to have the opportunity to fight for the accused. I graduated from Occidental College and quickly passed up professional athletic opportunities at home and abroad to pursue my passion in the law. While I was a student at the University of Denver School of Law, I worked long into the night to be successful in my classes while working full time as an intern for the district attorneys office and balancing raising a daughter with my second on the way. I maintained a high GPA and accomplished my goals. I know what work means. I do not know what life is without hard work. I will never give you less than my best.. When I passed the bar exam, I was immediately offered a job in prosecution. I applied my work ethic and quickly moved through the ranks of the DA’s office. I tried cases on a weekly basis and honed my trial skills throughout my five year prosecution career. I learned the politics that all DA’s have to deal with. I learned what juries think about real cases, and I learned the skills that are truly needed to bring justice to each case. I worked my way from an intern, to a line deputy, to a county court supervisor in both Douglas and Arapahoe counties. I worked diligently in juvenile prosecution, and I learned the every day politics and pitfalls that every family in that system should know. I prosecuted felonies and saw how perilous it is for a defendant to face a felony without the help of an attorney. I learned how the system will fail you. I spent a long time training DA’s, training the police, and training myself on how to properly administer justice. I have successfully tried countless cases. I understand the system you that has accused you and how to deal with the politics that stand in the way of a truly just result. I believe that the only thing that stands between the government an justice is a truly great defense attorney. I am that attorney, and I am in the prime of my career.. When I was a prosecutor, I learned from the best of the best. I honed my skills and learned their weaknesses. They are not weak, and they have a lot of power; my experience can protect you. When I left prosecution, I did so to become an expert criminal defense attorney. I have spent the last seven years making myself the best defense attorney I can be. My life experience, my real world training and my last seven years as a defense attorney help me to know that I am the best attorney for your case; the DA’s know it, the Courts know it when you take the time to talk to me. Call me so I can prove it to you for free.. I decided to leave prosecution when I realized that the politics of that position would interfere with my obligation to do justice. I saw that I could do much more to help people by using my skills to help the accused. It was the best decision I have ever made. I have lost count of the cases I have won; I stopped counting because my ego is not what drives my desire to fight. The authentic appreciation that my clients have is what drives me. I must do the best that I can for everyone that entrusts me with their life changing experience. My drive to do my best is what keeps me up at night. Your case is what I live for. I promise to give you all that I have; nothing else is acceptable to me.. I met Daniel Mossinghoff while we were young prosecutors. His trial skills are the best I have ever seen. His dedication to protecting the constitution is unparallelled, and his passion to seek justice for our clients is awe inspiring. I fought to have him bring his skills to our former firm of Fife, Mangnall and Mossinghoff. His dedication to the law, to justice and most importantly to our clients makes me feel honored to work with him.
