Outstanding Trial Lawyer
After I was wrongly charged with a very serious crime I hired David Jones. David did explain to me the risks and benefits of going to trial. I chose to go to trial and David was behind me the entire time making sure I received a fair trial. David meticulously prepared for trial. David did phenomenal at trial. David didn't miss an objection and he was quick. By the end of the trial, the truth was revealed, and David and I beat that vicious, fabricating, exaggerating DA and a jury found me NOT guilty of all charges. During that stressful time in my life, David was a pleasure to work with. David was worth every penny.

I worked with Attorney Dave Jones, of Decker and Jones Law. I cannot say enough about his outstanding representation and my experience with him and working with his firm. He made me feel confident about my case as we worked our way through it all. Along with several changes throughout our case, he was able to pivot and continue to keep my goals first and foremost and not allow for distractions. Dave is very focused and gets the job done. Thank you, Dave.

I am very disturbed with unethical manner in which my family was "represented " for lack of a better term. I would suggest not paying upfront because then the job is already done with nothing left to work for. Very disheartening for the amount of money and stress. If I would have stayed with this firm I would not be free right now. I had better luck and support from the public defender.

You will struggle to find a better law firm than Aviso in Colorado Springs. They are exceptionally prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable. They are the only law office that I will be using in the future, and the only one I will recommend to family and friends. Kyra is an absolute ace, and I am incredibly grateful for her approach. I wish I could give 10 stars.

She was in with the DA and didn't help my husband at all on his case, she would not fight for him why because the court was paying her. She no better then the public defender. She didn't even give him the right days credited. She should be an attorney an do her job right or not be an attorney at all !!! I would not recommend her as an attorney, she will fail you just like she did my husband.

I was wrongfully accused of a crime while other lawyers told me to take a plea I went to Leonard and he took the case to trial. Although the county had several witnesses against me , Leonard was able to get to the truth and I was found not guilty. Leonard's work on the case saved me and my family.

I hired this attourney to help me with a very trivial case. He was charming enough when it came to sorting out financial agreements. However in my opinion he seems chaotic and disorganized.He showed up late for court , so my hearing had to be re-arranged.He kept demanding the full flat fee when the work had only just begun,despite being paid $1,300 in advanced.He has every excuse in the book for tardinesd and I was always made to feel as if my case was not important enough as he has 'so many other case' and picked my case he said because it was interesting.A bad craftsmen always blaims their tools.I fired this attourney as he was tardy, chaotic and difficult to communicate with.If you challenge him he becomes threatening , talks about sueing. stay away from this attourney.

He does talk, alot.... Prices were on the high end for what he accomplishes. He wont build you up saying he can do this or that for you. He makes sure you are aware of the worst situation, and guarantees nothing. Doesnt seem very confident in what he can do in means of the case, if he does anything. Asked me to get copies of paperwork from the courthouse and then send him copies. Asked him how court went one day, four hours later he lets me know he missed it because he wrote the wrong date down. Pretty much the same when asked about a paper he was suppose to file, excuses, and more talking. All in all an acceptable outcome(no choice here) on my case but wish i would have went with someone else or no one and not wasted my money with him. I would not recommend but other people may have a better experience than i did

I was very pleased with the service I recieved. To start with, his prices are very reasonable, especially for someone with as much knowledge and overall experience. There was not a single question I had that he couldn't answer, and whenever I got confused, he took the time necessary to make sure I understood. Michael also never once BS'd me. He never sugarcoated things, and most importantly, never led me on and gave me unrealistic expectations. There were other attorneys who tried to sell me on idealistic promises that were ultimately untrue. Michael was a straight shooter from the beginning. Aside from all this, I would also consider him a friend. He was always there to talk about things, even if they weren't specific to my case. I truly felt like he cared about me, and not just the paycheck. If you are ever in a bind, I would highly recommend giving Michael a call. You will not regret it.

My son was indicted for intent to harm or kill ( assault with a deadly weapon) - Obviously a felony. It was at a side road hot spring. He’s a good kid. It went to a jury trail which scared me to death.
Mike was very clear to me on telephone. Unfortunately I had serious foot surgery and couldn’t go but my former spouse did go. Mike explained the situation clearly and precisely to me. He is very adept and states the situation very straightforwardly. I am very appreciative of his efforts on my son’s behalf.

The worst attorney I've dealt with. Made disparaging comments about my race. Seldom returned phone calls and messages. Completely unorganized and unprepared. Threatened to withdraw from my case if I did not accept a plea deal. Lied to a Judge during an evidentiary hearing in order to force his withdrawal. I suggest spending your money elsewhere. Lastly, refused to send me my case file after withdrawing despite the fact that I am legally entitled to it. I would not recommend this attorney.

My experience with Allen Vellone Wolf Helfrich & Factor has been beyond great. They dug into the issues of my case and discovered things in my favor that go far beyond what other defendants in the same case appear to have missed or not seriously considered. My opinions of Jim Helfrich and Kate Sender go beyond my ability to express. The best I can say is that I trust them to do their absolute best, which I believe they have done. No bullshit.
They haven’t always told me what I want to hear, but they have always considered my opinion and that has been reflected in the things they have produced on my behalf. My case is not over, but they believe in me and have taken my side with the best they have to offer. Their rates are fair, and I have never had the feeling they were fabricating hours as so many law firms do, especially the law firm that is attacking me. I suspect I will have more to add to this review in the future.

Michael Root failed to provide me with adequate representation in a Retaliation Against a Judge case. The witness (alleged victim Judge) had provably lied on the witness stand, and Mr. Root, more concerned about preserving his career than seeking justice, threw me under the bus: the official Court transcript vs. the actual evidence on the record of the Court proves this. Not recommended.

Andres did nothing in the case of my son. He took over the case from Ashely Whitham, who was doing a terrible job and Andres continued on with it. He scared my son so bad that he took a plea deal that he never should have taken just so Andres did not have to work to help my son with his case. Do not use Andres if you want to be treated fairly and have a positive outcome to your case. Do not use Andres if you do not have the money to pay him because money is his main motivation, if you do not have any, you lose. Do not use if you expect him not to work with the prosecuting attorney to throw the book at you. Does not keep your best interests to heart will only use you to further his career. Do not use unless you want to lose your case.

I was a client of Andres Guevara & I would like to take this opportunity to say what an outstanding job he did for me on my drug case. This was a very stressful time for me & my family & Andres guided us through the entire process, displaying nothing but great expertise, professionalism & support. Pricilla, his paralegal, is also a wonderful asset to the practice! I highly recommend this law firm!

This man is the best! He not only got me a win, but he always kept me informed, he was easy to talk to has a great sense of humor and is very knowledgeable! He is very professional and very well spoken in court, but he also has a real person feel to him. I trusted this man as he trusted me we went into my case as a team which made me feel confident and we accomplished what we both wanted. I would recommend him to anybody looking for a experienced lawyer. Andres I thank you for all you did for me and so does my family!

Thank you both to Attorney Conor Stewartson and Paralegal Diane Barrera at Colorado Legal Defense Group for representing our daughter in her criminal defense case.
My husband and I spoke to several Attorney firms to help us and after speaking with Diane and the Intake Attorney Cole Presnell, we decided to go with their firm. I can honestly say that Diane was key in helping us make the decision to use their firm. She was very understanding and genuinely cared, being a mother herself. She was available early on and even followed up to make sure we landed safely in CO that same evening to be there for our daughter.
Conor was assigned to our case and I was advised although he was new with the firm he had an extensive background as a Criminal defense Attorney. Initially, I was concerned w/him being new to the firm but after speaking with him, doing a background check and reading up on him, he put those concerns to rest.
There were times it was difficult to get a hold of Conor but my understanding was his contact phone was still being setup at the time, since he was new w/the firm. But he did return my call when I really needed him over the weekend on a late evening. Also, Diane was always available even on weekends (not normal or expected) and kept the communication going if Conor was not available due to being in court or working w/another client.
Ultimately, the outcome of our case was in our daughter's favor and it was completely dismissed all due to the hard work of both Conor and Diane. Their skill set and ability to do what they do, fighting on our daughter's behalf produced the best outcome possible and we are so thankful to them both!
The billing process early on was easy and in speaking w/Diane that was not even a concern at the time with what was going on. Which truly shows the caliber of the firm and their people as a whole of who they are and what they are about.
We are thankful to both Conor and Diane and are truly blessed to have been represented by them, but as I mentioned to Diane, we pray we never need their services again! But would definitely recommend them and the firm if we ever needed legal help.

I worked with Chloe and she handled my entire case, from start to finish, with complete confidence and attention to detail. She saved me hundreds if not thousands of dollars in a variety of different actions. I am grateful for her understanding and support. I do think it matters which attorney you get assigned to, but I will just leave it at that. Ask for Chloe if she’s available. She was exemplary and always left me feeling like my case was the number one priority.

We hired her to take over a two year old case that seemed to be hopeless from what we were being told. In just a few months she has completely turned things around. It's nowhere near over yet but I can promise you if the outcome is not a win it will not be from lack of work and dedication on her part. She went straight to work and has not let up.

What a Sex Crime Lawyer Can Do for You
A sex crime lawyer specializes in defending individuals accused of sexual offenses, which can include charges such as sexual assault, rape, indecent exposure, child pornography, solicitation, and other related crimes. Being charged with a sex crime carries severe legal and social consequences, including potential imprisonment, mandatory registration as a sex offender, fines, and long-term stigma. A sex crime lawyer has the expertise to navigate the complex legal system, protect your rights, and develop a strategic defense to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
When Should I Hire a Sex Crime Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a sex crime lawyer immediately if:
- You are under investigation: If law enforcement contacts you for questioning or you become aware that you are a suspect in a sex crime investigation, it's crucial to seek legal representation before speaking with authorities.
- You have been arrested or charged: Promptly hiring a lawyer upon arrest or formal charges allows for early intervention in your case, which can be critical for your defense.
- Searches and seizures have occurred: If your property, such as your home or electronic devices, has been searched or seized in connection with a sex crime investigation, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
- You are facing related legal issues: If you're dealing with restraining orders, custody disputes, or other legal matters stemming from the allegations, a lawyer can provide comprehensive legal support.
What Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Do?
A sex crime lawyer provides a range of legal services to defend and support you throughout the legal process:
- Legal consultation and advice: They will explain the charges against you, outline your rights, and advise you on the best course of action.
- Case investigation: The lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation, gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and identifying inconsistencies or weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
- Defense strategy development: They will develop a tailored defense strategy, which may include challenging the credibility of evidence, disputing the legality of how evidence was obtained, or presenting alternative explanations.
- Negotiating with prosecutors: Your lawyer can negotiate plea bargains or reduced charges when appropriate, aiming to minimize potential penalties.
- Court representation: They will represent you in all court proceedings, including hearings, trials, and sentencing, advocating on your behalf.
- Protecting your rights: The lawyer ensures that your constitutional rights are upheld throughout the legal process, including protection against unlawful searches, coerced confessions, or violations of due process.
- Post-trial assistance: If necessary, they can assist with appeals, sentence modifications, or matters related to sex offender registration.
How Are Sex Crime Lawyers Paid?
Sex crime lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:
- Hourly rate: Charging an hourly fee for the time spent working on your case. Rates can vary widely based on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fee: A set amount that covers specific services or the entirety of your case, which can provide cost predictability.
- Retainer fee: An upfront payment from which the lawyer deducts hourly fees and expenses as they work on your case. You may need to replenish the retainer if it is exhausted.
- Payment plans: Some lawyers offer payment arrangements to make their services more affordable over time.
It's important to discuss payment structures and fees during your initial consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.
How Much Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a sex crime lawyer depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, the severity of the charges, and the lawyer's experience. General cost estimates are:
- Hourly rates: Typically range from $200 to $500 or more per hour.
- Flat fees: For less complex cases, flat fees might range from $5,000 to $25,000.
- Total costs: Complex cases involving extensive investigation or a trial can cost $25,000 to $100,000 or more.
- Additional costs: May include expert witness fees, investigative expenses, and court fees.
Always request a detailed fee agreement and discuss potential additional costs to avoid unexpected expenses.
Top Questions to Ask a Sex Crime Lawyer
-
What experience do you have handling sex crime cases similar to mine?
Ensure the lawyer has a strong background in defending against the specific charges you are facing. -
How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
Understand the fee structure and get an estimate of the total cost involved. -
What potential outcomes can I expect for my case?
Ask for an honest assessment, including best-case and worst-case scenarios. -

Learn about the strategies they might employ and how they plan to handle your defense. -
How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
Establish expectations for updates and availability. -
What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
Understand the challenges you may face and how the lawyer plans to address them. -
How long do you expect the legal process to take?
Get an estimated timeline based on the specifics of your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Sex Crime Lawyer
- Verify their license: Ensure the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state's bar association.
- Experience and specialization: Look for a lawyer who specializes in criminal defense with a focus on sex crime cases.
- Client reviews and testimonials: Research online reviews or ask for references to learn about other clients' experiences.
- Professional memberships: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL) can indicate a commitment to the field.
- Disciplinary record: Check for any past disciplinary actions or complaints filed against the lawyer.
- Consultation feedback: Use the initial consultation to assess their communication style, professionalism, and confidence in handling your case.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your initial meeting with a sex crime lawyer, bring the following:
- Detailed account of events: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, locations, and any conversations.
-
Legal documents: Bring all documents related to your case, such as:
- Arrest records
- Charging documents
- Bail paperwork
- Search warrants
- Any correspondence from law enforcement or the court
- Witness information: Provide names and contact information of any potential witnesses who can support your defense.
- Evidence: Bring any physical evidence or records that may be relevant, such as emails, text messages, or social media interactions.
- List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer's experience.
- Honesty: Be prepared to discuss all details openly and honestly; attorney-client privilege ensures confidentiality.
- Goals and objectives: Be clear about what you hope to achieve, whether it's dismissing charges, reducing penalties, or addressing registration as a sex offender.
By being thoroughly prepared, you enable the lawyer to assess your situation effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your case.
