Shahid Haque
Firm: Law Office
618 Highland St. , Helena , Montana 59601
Practice Areas: Immigration
Shahid Haque dedicates his practice to helping immigrants obtain legal status in the United States and pursue all that the country has to offer. Mr. Haque assists clients with a wide variety of immigration matters, including applications with the consulates abroad and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, representing clients arrested by the Department of Homeland Security, and defending immigrants in deportation proceedings in Immigration Court.. Mr. Haque has represented over a thousand immigrants and their families all across Montana. Mr. Haque helps clients with a wide variety of family and employment based visas. He has won asylum for over twenty refugees who fled from their home countries to escape torture, persecution, and death on account of their political or religious beliefs. He has also won cancellation of removal for numerous clients in contested deportation proceedings — one of the most difficult forms of relief to win due to its high burden of proof.. Mr. Haque has advocated for immigrants’ rights by bringing lawsuits in state and federal court to challenge unconstitutional laws and policies that discriminate against immigrants in Montana. He successfully challenged LR-121, an anti-immigrant voter-approved referendum, and thanks to his efforts the law was found unconstitutional.. In 2013, he filed a class action lawsuit against the Montana Highway Patrol to challenge its practice of detaining Latino drivers and passengers solely for the purpose of checking into their immigration status. In 2015, he prevailed with a judgment in his favor. Under a new policy, troopers cannot ask about immigration status based solely on a person’s race, ethnicity or language abilities. Nor can they demand drivers or passengers tell them their immigration status or detain people who choose not to answer. Montana is now one of the only states with a clear policy prohibiting this conduct.. In November 2016, Mr. Haque won a settlement of $125,000 against Jefferson County, Montana on behalf of a Mexican immigrant who was sexually assaulted while in immigration custody in that facility.. In the Fall of 2015, Mr. Haque taught immigration law at the University of Montana School of Law. Mr. Haque is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. He is also the founder and President of the Montana Immigrant Justice Alliance (“MIJA”), a statewide non-profit organization focused on immigrant justice issues. You can read about MIJA’s mission by clicking here.. In 2017, Mr. Haque was the recipient of the ACLU's Jeannette Rankin Civil Liberties Award, in acknowledgement of his service to immigrants in the State of Montana.. Mr. Haque lobbies for fair immigration policies in the Montana Legislature, and teaches training courses for immigrants and allies on immigration law, debunking myths about immigrants, knowing your rights when dealing with law enforcement, and the need for comprehensive immigration reform. In 2010, Mr. Haque trained at the Western States Center’s Community Strategic Training Initiative in Portland.. Mr. Haque earned his Juris Doctor from the Chicago-Kent College of Law, with High Honors, in 2005. During his first year in law school, he won the West Publishing Award for earning the highest GPA in his class. Mr. Haque served as Notes and Comments Editor of the Chicago-Kent Law Review, where he also published a scholarly article on labor and immigration policy. Upon graduation, he was inducted into the Order of the Coif and won the school’s Bar & Gavel Award for outstanding service to the immigrant community. During law school, Mr. Haque was an intern with the National Immigrant Justice Center. He received his bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Sociology from the University of Southern Indiana in 2001.. Mr. Haque is a member of the Illinois and Montana Bars, and is admitted to practice before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the U.S. District Courts for Montana and the Northern District of Illinois. Mr. Haque represents immigrants throughout the country, and has appeared before Immigration Courts in numerous states.. Mr. Haque resides in Helena, Montana with his wife, Sandra, and his family..

Mr. Peabody has tried jury trials ranging from Murder, sex crimes, Robbery, Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Extortion, to DUI (felonies and misdemeanors; drugs and/or alcohol), domestic violence, drug offenses and many others.Mr. Peabody has had great success defending DUI cases, having earned numerous Not Guilty verdicts for his clients. He has also obtained at least two hung juries in DUI cases in which the prosecution dismissed all charges after trial. He has earned Not Guilty verdicts or dismissals after a hung jury for cases involving only alcohol, cases involving only drugs, and a combination of alcohol and drugs. Mr. Peabody has also obtained many dismissals in DUI cases through motions to suppress evidence. These ranged from the police taking the blood of his client without a warrant and without an exception to the requirement that they obtain a warrant, to cases where they did not have the necessary reasonable suspicion to effectuate a traffic stop. He has even had multiple motions to suppress that were denied by the trial judge reversed by the appellate division of the Santa Barbara County Superior Court resulting in all charges being dismissed. He also defeated prosecution appeals of motions to suppress that were granted in favor of his client, also resulting in all charges being dismissed.In City of Kalispell v. Salsgiver, 2019 MT 126, Mr. Peabody brought about systemic change in the state of Montana when he went to the Montana Supreme Court to successfully challenge the unconstitutional practice, that was pervasive throughout the state, of stripping misdemeanor defendants of their Sixth Amendment right to trial by jury if they missed a court date. He did this after having lost in the trial court and then with the intermediate appellate court. The appellate division of the Montana Public Defender’s Office refused to argue the practice was unconstitutional believing it would be unsuccessful, so Mr. Peabody handled the appeal to the Supreme Court himself and prevailed with a 5 to 2 majority. In that same opinion, the Montana Supreme Court also reversed one of its prior decisions to the advantage of his client.Mr. Peabody taught law students Criminal Procedure as an Adjunct Professor at the Southern California Institute of Law from 2014 to 2015.

Ryan Dieken
, Glendive , Montana
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I drove heavy haul trucks for 14 years, A few years before i knew my back was going to go out I started keeping receipts of all the Law Study I did on my own time by recording and posting part of my studies to a podcast...which really took off.. Some Folx told me i could outwork the Law School entrance exam...I did, and scored in the 92.5%. (That's vs. people who already have at least three years of college). Not bad for a dude who was told he was "learning disabled.". Next, I applied to every school in a location that i thought i would enjoy riding my motorcycle (I drove in every state except Alaska, so i know where the best spots are). That ended up scoring me a Full Tuition Scholarship to Penn State Law, where I helped the Students AND professors understand how the real world works...in exchange for not paying $53,000/Yr. Having Started law school in 2020, the fact i had a radio broadcast voice quickly made me a class favorite. It probably helped that i had a tool kit and helped kids fix their vehicles, helped them find free suits.
Roland Durocher
Firm: Hartelius, Durocher & Winter
118 6th St S , Great Falls , Montana 59401
Practice Areas: Car Accidents
Car wrecks, medical errors, dogs attacks--life altering events happen in a heart beat. Innocent victims injured by others face not only the long road to recovery, and lost enjoyment of life, but also the economic pressure that comes from bills piling up and income being diminished or even gone after an injury. After growing up in Great Falls, I went to college in Missoula, getting a BA in economics in 1991, followed by a JD in law in 1994. After several years of a broader practice, including criminal defense, which allowed me to get trial experience, I eventually focused entirely on helping injured people. Other than pro bono matters, I handle exclusively plaintiff/claimant cases related to injuries and insurance claims. Most of my cases relate to injuries caused by car wrecks or medical malpractice, but I handle all manner of injury cases, including dog attacks, railroad crossing cases and motorcycle wrecks. I work in State, Federal, and Tribal courts throughout Montana. As a result of my litigation and trial practice, I have also handled directly or indirectly some of the most important insurance and injury law cases decided by the Montana Supreme Court in the last 20 years.
