Recent Victories
The following are examples of just a few recent victories the Firm’s attorneys have achieved on serious felony cases filed in the Colorado courts. Please see our separate DUI pages to read more about our specialized DUI knowledge and our recent successes in DUI cases:
May 2008: The Firm successfully negotiated a misdemeanor plea bargain for a client charged with three felony offenses, including the sale of drugs to an undercover police officer. The client’s original charges implicated a possible prison sentence. The plea bargain dismissed all felony counts and provided for a sentence to probation.
April 2008: Our attorneys secured a community-based sentence for a client who had four prior felony convictions and three active felony cases at the time we began representation. Because of this prior history, the client faced habitual offender charges and a very lengthy prison sentence. The Firm was able to persuade the prosecutor that this client could be successful with a drug treatment program and a community-based sentence.
August 2006: Our attorneys won the dismissal of a theft case involving tens of thousands of dollars in stolen property. Through investigation, we were able to convince the prosecution that our client did not know the property was stolen and save the client from a lengthy prison sentence.
May 2005: The firm’s attorneys earned a dismissal of all charges in a domestic violence case. By convincing the prosecutor that our client’s partner was the wrongdoer in the relationship, we were able to persuade the government that our client’s actions were justified and that she ought to be treated as a victim rather than a defendant.
July 2004: Attorneys from the firm successfully negotiated a community-based sentence for a client whose original charges included attempted murder. Through rigorous investigation, the our attorneys were able to demonstrate numerous weaknesses in the government’s case and save the client forty-eight years in prison.
April 2004: Our attorneys won a dismissal of all charges in a drug possession case by successfully arguing that the police had unlawfully stopped and searched our client.
December 2003: The firm’s
attorneys won a jury verdict of NOT GUILTY on all charges in a
felony embezzlement trial. The case received extensive
media attention in the community. The firm was later able to
successfully seal all public records of the charges in order to save
further damage to the client’s
reputation.
November 2003: Our
attorneys earned the complete dismissal of a case involving menacing
with a deadly weapon. As in other cases, the firm was able to
convince the prosecution that insufficient evidence existed to
support the charge.
December 2002: The firm’s attorneys won suppression of crucial identification evidence after convincing a judge that police actions violated our client's civil rights. The success at this hearing led to a dismissal of all charges in a felony theft case.
September 2002: The firm obtained a complete dismissal of all charges in an aggravated sexual assault case by convincing the prosecutor that insufficient evidence existed to support the alleged victim’s allegations. In several other recent sexual assault cases, the firm has successfully negotiated reductions of charges from felony to misdemeanor offenses, and secured plea offers to non-sexual charges for several clients.
