John is an excellent attorney who defended me in 2 cases. He is very thorough and most importantly, knows Colorado law. We were very satisfied with the outcome of my case. I highly recommend him and would seek him out again should the need arise.

John did an excellent job looking at the details under which our 18 year old was arrested. Given the circumstances, he was able to request a motion for dismissal of evidence. The case was dismissed and sealed.
