welcomes representation
inquiries however the purpose is
not to provide free legal advice to the general public. Unless
seeking to retain counsel, please do not email or call. Attorney
does not provide legal opinions, answers or information in response to
questions submitted from non-clients, and attorney is not the phone
company 411 center for telephone number information. Given the scope
of internet accessibility, I can not be the free "Colorado answer man" and
will politely decline requests of this nature. |

Attorney offers one free visit on every case. There is no obligation of any nature, and
you will not be billed for the first visit. The purpose of
a
first
consultation is
to identify your legal problems, discuss possible remedies or action which may
be available, and discuss attorney's fees and costs. After gaining an
understanding of your case, attorney will quote fees and anticipated costs.
Attorney generally
declines further discussion of the case after the first visit unless retained. As
attorney maintains a small practice and manage his caseload, attorney reserves the right to
decline any first consultation or to decline representation in any case.
If you feel the need to contact a trial attorney quickly, please pick up your
telephone. Attorney has made that easy with the addition of a toll free phone
number which is available throughout the entire United States and Canada.
You will reach either the attorney or voicemail - attorney has no secretarial screen.
When you call please bear in mind the attorney may or may not have time to visit at that
instant if you've not made a previous appointment. If you reach voicemail, please leave your name, date and time called, return phone number(s)
and a brief message regarding the purpose of your call. Attorney periodically
retrieves messages while away from the office and ask that you leave a number as
he may not have access to your file at the time. Attorney does not memorize client
phone numbers. In criminal cases, attorney may only permit a client to discuss
case facts while we are each on a land line - not cell or wireless.
Confidential or time sensitive matters or information should be limited to
direct phone conversation with counsel.
Attorney
is most willing to visit with
prospective clients regarding representation
by phone or in-person appointment without
cost or obligation. However, attorney will not
provide information, legal opinions or legal advice in response to questions submitted from
non-clients - email, fax or phone. Please refer to the terms of
first
consultation.
If a prospective client leaves an email message or contact phone, attorney will
attempt to call once at each number provided, however once only. Unless
otherwise designated, if you
are not available attorney would leave my
name, number and date called on your answering machine or voicemail.
Counsel does
not identify himself as an attorney. Whether you
have an answering service or not, attorney only attempt one call regardless of
importance you assign to the matter. Attorney will re spond
to your contact at the earliest opportunity,
however attorney accepts no responsibility to make multiple return calls attempting to
reach non-clients who are unavailable nor does attorney accept representation
simply based upon an inquiry call or email. You are most welcome and encouraged to
call again.
If leaving a message by email
or voicemail, you may wish to consider some of the following
Full name
Primary and secondary
contact phones
including
best number and best time to call
whether you prefer
I not leave a message
Email address
Brief explanation of
legal problem
Court case number and county in which litigation is
pending
Date of birth and social
security number
Driver's license number
and state of issuance
Naturally the amount of
information you provide is totally in your discretion. The more
information you leave, the better prepared attorney can be when your call is
returned. Conversely, please don't fill attorney's voicemail.
In
addition to your legal problem, openly discuss fees and costs with the attorney
in the first visit. When retained attorney generally provides a written fee agreement to avoid
misunderstandings. Timeslips computer accounting produces billings which are
easy to read & understand. Attorney accepts charge cards - MasterCard, VISA,
American Express and Discover Card, but not installment payments. Fee and trust deposit quotes will be honored
for a period of seven (7) days from the day of the quote. After that time, fees
or requested trust deposit are subject to change without notice if you have not
retained this office.
Attorney has located his office in his home. It is comfortable, plus it permits
attorney to manage his caseload and provide personal attention to each client and case.
Attorney's home office is physically located
near North Union and Dublin. A map is included in this website. Access is easy
from I-25 via Woodmen or from North Academy Blvd via Union -
driving directions
and
maps.
Attorney schedules about 30
minutes for a first consultation to answer your questions and provide a fee
quote; this can frequently be done by phone. Children should never be in a position to hear
or listen to your legal matters, particularly in the areas of my practice.

I set DUI defense factual interview
appointments as follows.
1. In person interview appointment
during business hours 8:30 am - 3:30 pm Monday - Friday or
2. Telephone interview appointment commencing 8:30 pm Monday - Thursday.
Evening factual interviews by phone are limited to DUI defense and are not

NOTE TO CLIENTS:
a. Completion of the linked
fact sheet and return with sufficient time for me to review before our physical
or phone appointment can reduce the time required during a factual interview.
b. If a client is not thorough
with informational responses on the fact sheet, I prefer to simply glean the
information during our interview and eliminate the fact sheet altogether.
I have found this to be the case with most clients, and honestly do prefer ¶c
below.
c. Simple review of the fact
sheet by the client prior to interview will refresh your recollection and make
us more efficient during our interview. This is probably the best
alternative - review, but don't bother completing the fact sheet.
d. To allow sufficient time
that we are not rushed, I prefer to set DUI defense factual interviews no later
than 3:30 pm or evening phone appointments as indicated above.

Policies
Representation
by Previous Attorney
|
|
1.
Current Attorney.
Until an order has entered withdrawing representation by an
attorney, an ethical rule violation exists if counsel
knowingly speaks to another attorney's client without current
attorney's consent. This ethical rule governs all
attorneys. Please do not call until after
you have terminated representation by a former attorney.
Please be aware, after
other counsel's withdrawal it may be
difficult for the the new attorney to "catch
up." |
|
2.
Adequate Time.
If prospective client terminates employment of the
former attorney, if sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your
defense, and if prospective client approves this
attorney's fees and costs structure, attorney will
likely accept defense representation. This shall
not constitute an offer of representation; attorney and
prospective client retain discretion through
first
consultation. |
|
3.
Insufficient Time. If you've waited until the eleventh hour and there is not
sufficient time to prepare an adequate defense before a contested
court proceeding, please do not call. I decline. |
|
|
|
4.
Second Opinion.
I will not arm chair quarterback another
attorney's defense tactics or theory of
defense. Please do not call for a second
opinion or an opinion regarding the competence
of your current defense. I decline. |

Post
Sentencing. I do not accept post sentencing
matters in any criminal, DUI or traffic case unless I provided
representation during the case in chief at the trial court level
and am familiar with the facts,
testimony and exhibits received into evidence, rulings & meritorious issues. That's been my policy for years. Please do
not call or inquire regarding post sentencing matters if you are
not a former client. |
|
|
|
This
includes appeals or plea to
domestic violence
or other
criminal charge,
DUI,
DEAC
or
DWAI
charge or other
traffic charge
and probation,
deferred
sentence, parole or incarceration or
revocation proceedings based upon alleged failure to comply. |
| |
|
Exceptions.
If the underlying criminal case qualifies, refer to
sealing
criminal records. I accept meritorious sealing cases regardless of
whether or not you are a former client. NOTICE:
alcohol related traffic offenses, other traffic offenses or traffic
infractions are a specifically excluded in the
sealing
statute and can not be sealed. If relevant, I also accept
meritorious
collateral
attack cases.

All inquiries will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed to any third
person absent consent of the client or prospective client. However I accept no responsibility for
disclosure through unauthorized interception during email transit, access by
other persons sharing your email account password or interception of
conversations involving cordless, wireless or cell phone technology.
You have visited my website anonymously. The site is not encrypted or
otherwise secure, however no client information is retained in the
website. My websites do not surreptitiously glean information - my sites
do
not use "cookies" or otherwise gather personally identifiable
information except that which a visitor knowingly provides by email or phone
call. I'm an attorney - not a techie or a telemarketer. However, be aware cookies will be required at the
professional payment checkout site if you make an on-line
payment. For future
reference in communications with you, I print emails to scan or make brief
notations in a phone log regarding conversations. These are not shared
with any other person or business absent express consent of the client or
prospective client.
To keep client documents confidential attorney utilizes protections including burglar /
fire alarm, computer virus detection, firewall, spyware filter, web bug filter,
and email filters.

EMAIL
CONCERNS AND SECURITY |
|
|
|
|
CONFIDENTIALITY
Attorney usually checks email multiple times daily - it will likely get
attorney's attention as
fast as voicemail. Email is not encrypted and may be subject to
interception while in transit. Attorney transmits via encrypted attachment
documents containing sensitive or personal identification information such as
social security number, date of birth, driver license and the like.
Regardless of whether you are a client or prospective client, by
using unsecure email you may not be covered by the attorney-client communication
privilege. Unsecure medium may be considered a waiver of attorney-client
confidentiality privilege.
The attorney can not and will not warrant or
guarantee confidentiality in the internet medium. Confidential or time
sensitive maters or information should be limited to direct phone conversation with
counsel.
VIRUS, TROJAN or WORM
All incoming and outgoing email +
attachments are automatically scanned by an antivirus program and a spyware sweeper.
Attorney opens attachments received from clients or opposing counsel in a particular
litigation case. For clients or counsel, attorney can open or convert most word
processing, image or spreadsheet files. If you are not a client, please do
not attach any files or documents to an email you may send. Due to the
potential for virus, trojan or worm transmission, any email attachment received
from an unknown person is deleted without opening. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
CORDLESS,
WIRELESS & CELL PHONE CONCERNS |
|
|
|
|
Technology today is marvelous, however attorney can not warrant the privacy of conversations involving
cordless, wireless or cell phones. If the matter to be discussed is
sensitive, attorney asks that we touch base from land lines or perhaps an office visit may be in
order. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
DOCUMENTS
AND TRANSMITTAL |
|
|
|
|
Regarding documents, clients may mail, email, fax, FedX or bring to my office. A
secure document drop is accessible. No one else has access. The drop slot
is confidential and available to clients at any time day or night.
Dropping a check is acceptable as the canceled check provides an audit trail,
however NO CASH may be dropped. A receipt or printed billing
statement must be issued for cash payment. Due to lack of audit trail, I
accept no responsibility for cash placed in the document drop slot.
Except for potential evidentiary exhibits
retained in hard copy, attorney's files are maintained electronically by image scans.
Court cases may be argued from a notebook computer as it is efficient. To assure
confidentiality, documents are mailed to the client or shredded subsequent to
scanning. Attorney requests that clients retain copies of documents. A fee would be assessed to later
retrieve and print images of a client's file. If requested, a data CD of
all images in attorney's electronic file can be provided at the time of file
closure or subsequent thereto - fees and costs would apply. |

ATTORNEY ETHICAL OBLIGATIONS
PRIOR CONVICTIONS *
ARRESTS * BAD ACTS |
NOTICE
TO CLIENTS OR PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS
IMPORTANT
- READ THIS CAREFULLY |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Effective January 1, 1993 - under the Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct (C.R.C.P.)
if an attorney is aware of prior or subsequent arrest(s), criminal charge(s)
or conviction(s) or other litigation or bad acts, the
disciplinary rules place an affirmative duty on all attorneys to inform
the court of relevant facts not before the judge, regardless of whether a
litigant has given misinformation or not. Put simply, DEFENSE ATTORNEYS ARE NOW
REQUIRED TO INFORM THE SENTENCING JUDGE AND OPPOSING COUNSEL OF PRIOR OFFENSES,
ARRESTS OR BAD ACTS WITHIN THE ATTORNEY'S KNOWLEDGE. Attorneys'
obligation to deal fairly and with candor to the court supercedes the attorney -
client privilege regarding communications. In
short, if an attorney has knowledge that a client is
giving false information or relevant information is unknown to the court, these
disciplinary rules required counsel to correct the records or to withdraw representation.
Withdrawal may be the only viable option.
C.R.C.P. §1.2(d)&(e) (scope and
objectives of representation - fraud & prohibited conduct), §1.6
(confidentiality of information - attorney-client privilege), §3.1
(meritorious clams and contentions) and in particular, §3.3 (candor toward
the tribunal - disclosure requirements). I also reviewed statutes, editor’s
notes and annotations CRS 13-90-107(1)(b) (who may not testify without consent
- attorney-client privilege).
The
Colorado Supreme Court
disciplinary rules govern the conduct of all attorneys licensed in Colorado; this is not unique to
my office nor to criminal defense attorneys - the rules apply to all Colorado
attorneys. If the ethical and disciplinary rules are violated, proceedings are available to remove, suspend or censure every
attorney's license to practice law.
The most common circumstances
in which this conflict may arise would be:
1. Prior DUI or alcohol
related traffic conviction out of state and no felony convictions.
Absent a felony charge or conviction, the DUI may not show up on an NCIC
records search. If the out of state DMV has cleared you as eligible for
a license, there would be nothing to show up in the DMV national holds
registry. Given that there is no national DMV record except for a.)
adverse action holds and b.) commercial driver's license (CDL), the prior
offense may be unknown to Colorado courts, prosecutors and probation officers.
2. Subsequent DUI or alcohol
related traffic charges arising after entry of plea and alcohol evaluation,
but before sentencing hearing. All counties are linked into the Colorado
Judiciary system - all types of cases including felony, misdemeanor and
traffic cases. Courts, prosecutors and probation officers have on-line
access to judicial records. However, if the new charges arose after plea
and evaluation, the last opportunity to run a computer records check would be
by the judge immediately before or at sentencing. The judge may or may
not search records.
As a defense attorney, when a
client has remained silent and has not perpetrated fraud on the court, I do not
agree that confidentiality under the attorney-client relation is subordinate to the
duty as an officer of the court to affirmatively inform the judge of prior
criminal offenses. Nor do I believe defense attorneys should be obligated to
disclose history information received in a confidential setting. My opinion,
though, is not important. I am an ethical attorney. The rules exist and I will not
violate. In fulfillment of my ethical obligations, even without specific knowledge, I recommend disclosure of
prior or subsequent conviction(s), arrest(s) or bad act(s).
Shortly after being retained, but generally not thereafter due to cost, attorney
runs a
client
background search under the exact name provided by client. I have no knowledge or reason
to know if such matters are not disclosed by client, are not found in a records
search and are not found in discovery provided by the prosecution or opposing
counsel.
Therefore, IF YOU HAVE A PRIOR
OFFENSE WHICH YOU DO NOT WISH DISCLOSED TO PROSECUTORS, TO OPPOSING COUNSEL OR TO THE COURT, DO NOT
INFORM THE ATTORNEY OR ANY STAFF IN THIS OFFICE. You will be asked relevant
questions by the attorney or his staff. SIMPLY STATE YOU DO NOT WISH TO DISCUSS
THOSE MATTERS AND NO FURTHER INQUIRY WILL BE MADE. No conclusion will be drawn
from your request that inquiry be avoided. We will simply not discuss the
subject.
IMPORTANT. It is very dangerous for your
defense attorney to have limited knowledge of relevant facts. The last place
defense counsel should be educated is in the courtroom or by a prosecutor. You
may needlessly have a probation or deferred sentence revoked or consecutive jail
sentences imposed. However, given the ethical and disciplinary rules which now
govern Colorado attorneys, you may not wish to tell counsel all relevant facts,
such as a prior conviction. This attorney recommends disclosure of prior
offenses or other bad acts. If you give false information to the court, probation department or
prosecutors and are caught, sanctions will be extreme. Whether or not to
disclose is the client's decision. If you exercise your right to remain silent,
no false information is given.
The above information has been
provided to place you on notice that the attorney-client privilege no longer
makes a lawyer's office "safe haven" for your statements pertaining to
prior offenses which you do not want disclosed. This is similar to the
criminal case "Miranda warning."
At every first interview, all prospective clients are asked to sign a copy
of a similar notice indicating the prospective client received a copy and had adequate time to read it
before seeing the attorney or discussing the facts of the person's case.

Individual pages are contained in the primary website discussing specific types of
cases. Within each specific topic you will find a statement which
identifies which fee structure is offered for particular type of case.
Some pages identify a common fee or trust deposit for that type of matter -
actual fee quotes may vary. In other legal matters, it is not practical to
estimate fees without an opportunity to learn the facts and circumstances of the
legal problem. I offer an
initial consultation for that very purpose. |

|
|
UNSUPERVISED PARALEGALS
STREET
CORNER LEGAL ADVICE
the knowledgeable neighborhood backyard

|
|
|
| |
|
Each case is different; law can be complicated.
In criminal, DUI and traffic cases favorable plea bargains are obtained
based upon
a number of reasons; the prosecution's concern for possible loss at trial can
be a major factor. Sentencing is based upon the specifics of your particular
case and applicable law.
I have previously been retained
to assist clients with criminal and traffic problems who had followed advice of
"street corner lawyers."
Various clients had
lost driving privileges or had bench warrants issued for their arrest. It
is unlawful for non-lawyers to give legal advice, however that advice is
bountiful. Be careful.
Regarding sealing criminal justice records. I have dismissed a lawsuit
previously filed by other counsel in the wrong court and re-filed in the proper
court. Although municipal court did not have jurisdiction due to
pre-emption under state law, res judicata (one chance to litigate) could have
been a problem had dismissal not been sought prior to entry of orders in the
municipal court.
In all types of cases I've listened to
prospective clients adamantly inform me of his or her rights or planned case
strategy and tactics
based upon advice received over the back yard fence from a neighbor who'd heard about
a friend of a friend. A lawyer just can't compete with that level of competence and
expertise. I'll listen attentively and assess the merits, but if the
prospective client doesn't or won't recognize realities I do not attempt an
attorney-client relation.
I have
seen numerous errors in pleadings and settlement agreements which would
constitute malpractice if committed by an attorney. Just as significant rights can
be affected in DUI and criminal cases, sealing criminal justice records cases can be lost and /
or perhaps judgment & fees + costs awarded to the state if
inappropriately commenced or litigated. Significant right may be
involved. Do not judge what will or should happen to you on
the basis of what happened a friend or "someone in the know." Do not
rely upon the "street corner lawyers" or unsupervised paralegals.
Seek professional advice from competent counsel licensed in Colorado to commence
or defend your case properly from the outset. If
private counsel fees are not feasible, refer to
alternatives.
