Policies
Litigant Pro Se - Attempt to
Prepare Defense of Own Traffic or Criminal Case |
|
1.
Adequate Time. If sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your case 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. |
|
2.
Insufficient Time. If you've waited until the eleventh hour and there is not
sufficient time to adequately prepare your case or defense before a contested
court proceeding, please do not call. I decline. |
|
|
|
3.

Attorney
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.
After
other counsel's withdrawal it may take significant effort for the the new attorney to "catch up."
Please be aware fees and costs will be associated with procuring the court
file and coming up to speed in the case. |
|
2.
Adequate Time.
If prospective client terminates employment of the
former attorney, if sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your
traffic or criminal case, and if prospective client approves this
attorney's fees and costs structure, attorney will
likely accept 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 adequately prepare your case or
defense before a contested court proceeding, please do
not call. I decline. |
|
|
|
4.
Second Opinion.
I will not arm chair quarterback another
attorney's case preparation, trial tactics or theory of
the case. Please do not call for a second
opinion or an opinion regarding the competence
of preparation or defense in your current
traffic or criminal case. I decline. |
|
|
|
| |
|

POST
SENTENCING MATTERS
PROBATION
REVOCATION * PAROLE VIOLATION
DEFERRED SENTENCE
REVOCATION * APPEALS |
|
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, meritorious issues
& rulings. 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 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.

CASES
OUTSIDE EL PASO COUNTY
ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS
Geographic Distance - Travel
Time, Mileage and Expense
Colorado is a big
state. Ease of internet access, email and toll free phone doesn't change
that fact. |
Attorney
is very willing to travel outside the Colorado Springs area to present
or defend a case,
but please be aware
travel
time, mileage and expense would apply. If you are out of state or unfamiliar with Colorado
geography, refer to the map to determine where
Colorado Springs is
located in relation to the county of your court case or hearing.
|
|
If
travel is necessary, a
trust
deposit
would be required to cover anticipated travel time, mileage & expenses. If it is not economically justifiable to retain my
services with travel,
please contact counsel in the locale of your case. |
