A Denver, Colorado, Law Firm Assisting Clients Nationwide

Since 1983, Downey & Associates, PC has served individuals and businesses in the Denver area and across the United States who need experienced and trusted representation in a wide range of legal issues including property tax, real estate, business law, litigation, and employment law matters.

Have You Done This Before? Oh, Yes.

Whether spoken or unspoken, any individual or business that is looking for a lawyer has the same pressing question: Have you done this before?

With more than 30 years of experience, we can generally answer with an emphatic "yes." In those years, we have handled an enormous volume of cases and transactions. While each matter is unique, chances are good that we have worked on something similar to the issues you are facing.

That means that not only can you hire us with confidence, but we will also save you both time and money as we help you achieve the outcome you are seeking. What might take a junior associate in a large firm two days to research, we can often answer off the top of our heads.

When we analyze a business transaction, we have the benefit of having seen thousands of similar exchange before — we understand how those transactions unfold, know which issues to be looking for, and are often able to anticipate potential snags. We see things others may not, simply because we have been down the road before.

Cost-Effective, Attentive Service

We are dedicated to providing the highest level of personal service in a timely and cost-effective manner. When you work with us, an experienced attorney will handle your case from start to finish. We do not hand you off to a junior associate or paralegal after your initial conversation. You will have a direct line of communication with us; you can pick up the phone and speak to an attorney who knows you by name and knows the details of your case.

We make communication a priority. We keep you updated on any developments in your case. In many circumstances, we will encourage you to meet with us in person to learn about and discuss those updates. We appreciate technology, but feel too many details and nuances can get lost in rapid-fire, spontaneous e-mails and attachments. Information that is important to your business and your livelihood deserves more attention and is more effectively delivered eye-to-eye whenever possible.

A Reputation for Integrity and Experience

Our attorneys have earned a reputation for integrity and experience in the legal and business community. We represent our clients' interest and solve problems by developing fair and cost-efficient strategies to manage risk and avoid litigation. When litigation is the correct option for our clients, we provide ethical, aggressive experienced advocacy in state and federal courts and administrative agencies.
