I have been practicing law in Northern Colorado since 2007. I have spent countless hours in the courtroom negotiation cases, litigating complex motions issues and going to trial. I have tried cases from all levels of traffic offenses to first-degree murder to complex property crimes. My clients have been found not guilty of charges at all levels in the criminal defense system. While a capable litigator I also try to focus on the individual needs of my clients, to negotiate vigorously on their behalf and work hard to achieve the best possible outcome.. I believe in consistent and open communication between attorney and client. I work hard for my clients to communicate with them regularly and openly in order to build a foundation of trust so we may reach the most successful resolution to each case.. I earned my law degree in 2007 from the University of Kansas. I was a member of the Legal Aid Clinic and Trail Advocacy Group. Prior to attending the University of Kansas, I attended Kansas State University earning my Bachelors degree.. Once I graduated from law school I moved to Greeley, Colorado and began working for the Colorado State Public Defenders System.. For as long as I can remember I have sought to learn the skills and develop the compassion necessary to help people in need.

Being charged with a crime puts your life in the hands of a judicial system that all too often does not care about the truth - the truth of who you are, the truth of what happened, the truth of what a conviction would mean for you and your loved ones. It is an experience that is terrifying and leaves you feeling lost, powerless, and unheard.. I've dedicated my life to being a voice for the accused, because the truth is no matter the situation, you also have a story to tell and deserve to be heard. Whether that means fighting at trial to show your innocence, litigating to protect your constitutional rights, or finding a way to present you and your life to a prosecutor to obtain a favorable plea deal, I have the skills and experience necessary to guide you through the system and make sure your truth is heard.. During my years as a public defender and in private practice, I have represented thousands of clients, on cases ranging from minor traffic offenses and DUI's to homicides and sexual assaults. I have won difficult cases with not guilty verdicts at jury trials, by winning hard-fought motions issues that force a dismissal, by convincing prosecutors to drop charges through investigation and mitigating, by challenging probable cause at preliminary hearings, and by successfully litigating for post-conviction relief.. There is nowhere I am more comfortable than in a courtroom arguing to a jury. I have extensive experience as a trial lawyer, starting with winning my first jury trial at the age of 23 in the CU Law criminal defense clinic and representing my law school at nationals for mock trial -- a team that I now proudly coach at competitions across the country. As a public defender, I completed the Colorado "boot camp" and was trained on the acclaimed "Colorado Method" for jury selection that was developed from death penalty defense work. Over my career I have handled the full spectrum of misdemeanor and felony jury trials. Being blessed with the opportunity to teach trial skills to law students and new lawyers always reminds me that great things come when you never stop learning and strive for excellence.. For real-life examples of how I and the attorneys I work with have helped people when they needed it most, please read my bio at the Eichner Law website..
