Practice Areas

Defending every kind of criminal charge

Misdemeanor or felony, first offense or not — I build a defense around the facts of your case and the realities of the Gilpin County court system.

DUI, DWAI & Traffic Offenses

Mountain highways and casino traffic make DUI one of the most common charges in Gilpin County. I challenge the traffic stop, field sobriety tests, and breath or blood evidence, and represent you at your DMV express consent hearing. Act quickly — the deadline to request that hearing can be as short as 7 days.

Casino & Gaming Offenses

Cheating, theft of chips or credits, fraudulent IDs, underage gaming, and trespass after being barred. These cases often turn on surveillance footage and casino security reports — evidence that must be obtained and reviewed carefully.

Assault & Domestic Violence

Colorado's mandatory arrest law means a single 911 call can lead to charges and a protection order. I work to modify restrictive orders, uncover the full story, and protect your record.

Drug Charges

Possession, distribution, and paraphernalia charges, including cases involving improper searches of vehicles and hotel rooms. Diversion and treatment-based alternatives may be available.

Theft & Fraud

Shoplifting, theft by deception, check fraud, and identity theft. The value involved determines the charge level — I fight to keep misdemeanors from becoming felonies.

Felony Defense & Record Sealing

Serious felony charges in the First Judicial District, plus sealing of eligible past arrests and convictions so your record doesn't follow you forever.
