Boulder, Denver, Front Range and Western Slope

On November 12, 2014 a Boulder jury returned verdicts of "Not Guilty" on each and every one of six charges against the firm's client arising out of a domestic violence incident. Not guilty verdicts were returned on charges of First Degree Burglary, Second Degree Burglary, First Degree Criminal Trespass, Third Degree Assault, Menacing, and Harassment. As a result the client will be able to seal her record and continue her professional career.

On September 8, 2014 a Boulder judge awarded a substantial victory to the firm's client in contested Permanent Protection Order proceedings. After domestic violence/assault charges had been dismissed against the client in earlier proceedings, both the client and the former alleged victim sought a permanent protection order against the other. The court awarded the firm's client, previously a defendant in the criminal case, a permanent protection order against the alleged victim in that case and denied the alleged victim's request for a reciprocal order.

In April of 2014, Jurdem, LLC, successfully represented a client under investigation for sexual assault and domestic violence related offenses by the Boulder Police Department and Boulder District Attorney's Office, resulting in the government's decision not to file charges against the client.

On January 21, 2014 charges of Third-Degree Assault/domestic violence that were brought the previous September, 2013, were dismissed by the Boulder District Attorney. The incident involved a situation in which, after the client terminated their relationship, a former domestic partner brought criminal charges based on allegations that were eventually shown to be false. The client has now been able to seal the record of this incident.

On August 21, 2013, a Boulder jury returned a verdict of "Not Guilty" against a firm client charged with sexual assault by the use of force and violence, a class three felony requiring registration and sentencing as a sex offender upon conviction. The case was fought hard by the Boulder DA, through various phases, including preliminary hearing, motions hearings and jury trial. Charges had been pending against the client for a terrifying nine months, which ended with his complete acquittal. All records of this case may now be sealed.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
