Pueblo PD arrested me and hit me with a litany of firearms and burglary charges that I absolutely did not commit. All the charges added up to over 20 years in prison if convicted. I bonded out and called Rodemer and Kane immediately. With their help, 6 months later they dropped the charges and plead down to a criminal trespass. 6 months probation and a little community service. Hopefully I never need an attorney again, but if I did, I will be hiring them again

I had the pleasure of working with Mason Simpson. We are a local contractor and had issues with a customer paying. Mr Simpson handled the mediation to perfection. He knows his way around the legal arena and called everything just as it would happen. Legal matters are no joke but having a solid attorney is a must for your anxiety level.

I was in a situation of having to cold call attorneys 10 states away and I was very uncertain about any groups as I really didn't have a way to get referrals from any one about their experience, but I got lucky and obtained the services of the Business Law Group - with attorney Mason Simpson. Boy did I get lucky. Mason, while having experience with large corporations, mega wealthy, influential people come to find out later, he never made me feel as if my issue was small or that I wasn't worth his time. He limited attorney time/fees the best he could and continued to update me on developments and worked with other co-defendants even making great suggestions to the judge when we were in a situation that ended up in mediation. He's a brilliant guy but doesn't mind watering things down to the regular person. I also felt something that it not necessarily in the legal system - and that is he wasn't into gamesmanship but rather did what was "right". I highly recommend him to anyone without reservation and I know that Colorado Springs has no idea the gem that plopped back there after a long stint in New York City. Hopefully I won't be in need of an attorney again (especially 10 states away), but if I did, I would hire Mason Simpson again - his paralegal and folks at his firm were also professional, helpful and did their jobs with excellence.

Attorney (I feel embarrassed even calling him that) Rechard Tegtmeier frequently made excuses and exhibited a lack of diligence in handling my case. Throughout the duration of my interactions with Tegtmeier, I found his behavior to be extremely inappropriate and disrespectful. I had to tell him to withdraw and had a different attorney represent me. He consistently came across as rude and displayed a clear disdain towards individuals of color, including myself. Despite my attempts to maintain professionalism and cooperation, I could sense an underlying prejudice in his demeanor towards me.
It became evident to me, and subsequently to others in similar situations, that his representation was marred by discrimination against minority groups. I have since learned that I am not the only individual who has felt marginalized and mistreated by Tegtmeier's actions.

I was being extorted and blackmailed by my ex and a local attorney. I was wrongly arrested twice and lost my job and was looking at jail time.
Because of conflict issues this went on for months and felt absolutely hopeless.
I found Steve and Casey and knew immediately that they were my only hope. Steve and Casey listened to me and were able to compile all the evidence that would expose the truth about what had been going on.
They fought for me and went above and beyond for this case. They were able to get my charges dismissed and the bogus restraining order dropped. I will be eternally grateful to their entire team. They literally saved me.
Aaron and Amy did an amazing job listening, compiling information and relaying messages. They always responded immediately to my needs and were incredibly helpful every step of the way.
This is the absolute best firm around.

Had a great experience with Joshua. He helped me with all of my steps in my case. I didn’t have to worry about anything in the end & was the best relief I’ve gotten since the ticket. Suggest, him to friends & family of Colorado.

So recently, I had an unfortunate situation arise where I needed a lawyer regarding a family dispute involving young children. Unfortunately we couldn’t come to a resolution and I was forced to find a lawyer to represent me.
The team at Kohn law, specifically Erica Bertini and Debbie are beyond amazing and represented me with stellar results! On the initial consultation, I knew they were who I wanted representing me!
I was treated with the utmost respect and spoken with, not at or down to. When things were getting tight on time, they worked with me and helped me get through everything being stern but still considerate and respectful treating me as a person not just another client.
We won the initial part of our battle with ease because I retained an amazing law firm with stellar lawyers who have amazing knowledge, expertise and experience! The paralegal, Debbie, was always professional, staying on the phone with me sometimes late to make sure she had all the information, documentation and details that they needed to proceed with my case. She was instrumental in making sure we had all our ducks in a row and worked with me every step of the way.
Erica, my lawyer, worked feverishly ensuring a win for us. She made sure that I knew what was expected from me, always asking if I had any questions or concerns about anything. When I was frazzled and unsure what to do she helped calm me down and always reassured me. She was definitely a rock in my corner that always had an open ear and kind words of support.
I’m not sure what they offer for legal counsel, advice or defense other than what they helped me with but I’m telling you right now that you’d be doing yourself a serious disservice by not contacting them and getting a consultation.
They are knowledgeable, friendly and honest. You would not regret having the Kohn law firm in your corner representing you. Tell them I highly recommended them and good luck with your case. I couldn’t be happier knowing they represent me!
prayed that God would help me through all of this and my prayers were definitely answered and I believe that part of those prayers being answered was finding the Kohn law firm!
Give them a call, you’ll be glad you did!

My son had an issue where he needed a lawyer. he was fortunate enough to find the Kohn law firm. Erica, his lawyer, is absolutely amazing! She is very knowledgeable and worked very hard to help my son with his case.
Debbie, his paralegal, was great! She would sit on the phone with my son sometimes late into the evening making sure he had everything needed and understood everything being asked! I really hope I never need a lawyer but if I do, I'll be calling the Kohn law firm. We are so thankful for them. If you ever need an amazing lawyer that will care about you and work hard to resolve your issues, call them, you'll be happy you did.

Mike is top notch. Twice now over twenty years apart he has been able to get my case dismissed when I was facing bogus charges. When you work with Mike your money doesn’t go to an ad campaign while you get handed off to a junior attorney. Instead you get the very best representation possible. He is a pillar of the community and has the professional relationships as well as the experience to get the job done.

I cant stress enough the phenomenal work Mr. Lance Wood put into helping me with my case. I was accused of Domestic violence and strangulation. Mr wood thoroughly examined the half hearted attempt at an investigation on the military’s side, and one sided review of an allegation with no support. Mr. Wood was always available when i would call or text even with the dilemma of being hours apart in different time zones. As nerve racking as my administration separation board was, Mr. Woods confidence and knowledge of regulation shut down multiple attempts at a flawed attempt to bring detriment to my character. Mr. Woods hard work and commitment resulted in a unanimous decision among the board members for retention in the Army, and unfounded accusations. The efforts and work Mr. Wood put in to achieve this outcome has drastically affected my life, I can move on with my career and continue to lead soldiers and be in my career field Im passionate about. I will be forever grateful that he removed a heavy weight from my shoulders, this career means everything to me and Mr. Wood could see that. And i could clearly see that Mr. Wood was passionate about his career field and proving and ensuring the justice system was not just a check the block system. I would recommend this counsel under any circumstances.

I am writing this the day after being acquitted. I feel that I owe a thorough review to give the you the most transparent information.
1. Stages when charges were preferred: I spoke with many attorneys, but Lance stood out from the rest. He was easy to talk to, easy to get a hold of, I could text him directly and he would promptly respond, he was willing to offer useful insight without charging a dime. I did not immediately hire Lance because the preliminary hearing had went in my favor.
2. Preliminary hearing is NOT binding: because of the prelim going well I did not seek counsel and stayed with TDS. What I was not aware of was that the convening authority ignored the preliminary hearing officer’s determination and proceeded with a general court martial.
3. TDS: trial defense counsel absolutely care about you, however their abilities to create a strong case for you is extremely limited. They are often less experienced than the prosecution and can be intimated by the judge. They often have to request permission from the government to produce witnesses, experts, etc. which they almost always will deny unless it benefits their case against you.
4. Pre-motions hearing: because the government will deny everything, your TDS will likely have to compel the judge to make the government agree to your requests. This is where I got to watch my TDS awkwardly stumble through cross examination and convince the judge of literally nothing. I felt sorry for them and it was my case.
5. After the hearing it became extremely evident I was going to lose my trial and potentially face 3 years confinement, bad conduct discharge and affect my abilities to be a father. My TDS was sympathetic, but already felt defeated.
6. Why does any of this matter and how does this relate to Lance? After leaving the TDS office, I called military trial defenders and Lance got a hold of me later that day. He filed a motion of entry and from the moment he began representing me there was a significant shift from the government.
Suddenly they became cooperative, were willing to talk to Lance and agree on stipulations. No more games, no more dodging TDS calls.
7. At this stage I got to watch Lance slowly and methodically lock the government into a very tight arena.
8. Trial: we went with a panel (jury) over judge alone. Lance is extremely good at attention to detail during jury selection. This is often an underrated process that is crucial when deliberation comes. After jury selection opening statements, witnesses, exhibits and instructions for the panel. what I noticed was the the panel was very reciprocal of Lance, they were very engaged when he spoke and would often nod and passively agree with his arguments. The judge was also very positive to Lance. The judge agreed to all of Lance’s arguments of stipulation and instructions over the governments because he was better able to articulate it. Lastly, even the prosecutors would often try to get lance’s attention and try to joke with him. Lance was respectful and stayed focused. “We’re just going to object to everything, this is what we do” the prosecutor laughed. He knew he was losing. Bad.
9. Lance is willing to call you the stand if it makes sense. He will prepare you and produce a very limited scope to which the government can cross examine. You still have to be mindful, but Lance will absolutely set you up for success on the stand. The panel is EXTREMELY engaged When the accused takes the stand.
9. Closing arguments. This was the only time the prosecution put on a strong show. But even then, Lance is phenomenal at closing arguments. There are many other reviews to support this. I cannot stress enough how crucial a strong closing argument is. It is the last thing the panel gets before deliberation. It is the freshest content on their mind and is the final tip to your case.
10. Deliberation. From the very beginning to the end. Lance was always at a 100%. The panel made a determination within 10 minutes and the verdict was not guilty.
Thank you Lance. I owe my freedom to you.

Lance was very compassionate, thorough, and competent in my representation. He achieved the outcome he wanted and I am grateful. He advised me differently than other attorneys based on my circumstances and his years of experience, and because of this, all charges were dropped and dismissed. I highly recommend Lance and his team and if given an opportunity to do different, I would definitely retain him again.
