In some cases, Geoff typically charges a flat fee and offers flexible payment options to ensure that anyone can access experienced legal representation.

Will My Colorado Criminal Case Go To Trial?

Will I Lose My License After A DUI Arrest In Colorado?

Even a first offense in Colorado carries serious weight, including potential license suspension.

Geoff can advise you on how to request your hearing and represent you at the DMV action, bettering your chances of preserving your license.
