Our approach combines legal strategy with scientific understanding to minimize penalties like license suspension and jail time.

Questions
What are Colorado's DUI penalties?
First-time DUI in Colorado carries license suspension, $500-$1,000 fines, jail time, and community service. Repeat offenses escalate penalties significantly.
How is DUID different from DUI?
DUID requires proving drug impairment rather than BAC levels. Colorado lacks a per se drug limit except for THC's 5ng threshold.
Can THC test results be challenged?
Yes. Our firm analyzes blood tests to distinguish impairing active THC from non-impairing metabolites that may lead to unfair prosecution.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, checks, credit/debit cards, Venmo, and Zelle for DUI defense services.
What happens after a DUI arrest?
Contact our firm immediately. We'll review your case, explain charges, and develop defense strategies tailored to your situation.
