Felonies and Serious Crimes in Aspen, Colorado

Facing a felony or serious criminal charge can be overwhelming. When you’re up against the possibility of significant prison sentences, large fines, or lengthy probation, it’s natural to fear for your future. These charges can affect virtually every aspect of your life—your career, personal relationships, and reputation in the community. With so much on the line, it’s crucial to have a defense that examines all the facts, explores every legal avenue, and pushes back against assumptions made by law enforcement and prosecutors.

I believe in a thorough, step-by-step approach that starts the moment you reach out. From reviewing police reports and forensic evidence to challenging procedural errors, my goal is to ensure your constitutional rights remain safeguarded. If there’s potential for a favorable plea deal, we’ll consider it thoughtfully; if a trial is unavoidable, I’ll be ready to advocate forcefully on your behalf. In all cases, I focus on keeping you informed, ensuring you’re part of each critical decision, and working diligently to protect your long-term interests.

No matter how dire your situation appears, you deserve a voice in the criminal process—and a fair chance to move forward once the dust settles. If you’re confronting felony or other serious charges in the Roaring Fork Valley, please reach out. A compassionate, committed defense can make a profound difference, allowing you to reclaim control over your life and your future.

For many people, the shock of being labeled a “felon” feels just as harsh as the legal penalties themselves. Friends and colleagues may withdraw, and even routine interactions can turn awkward or confrontational. I take into account both the legal and the personal fallout of this type of charge. By digging deep into the evidence and highlighting the unique details of your case, I aim to build a defense strategy that addresses the legal issues while also helping to mitigate collateral consequences.

While no attorney can promise a perfect outcome, a solid defense often spells the difference between a harsh sentence and a second chance. My responsibility is to treat your case as a priority, research every angle, and advocate assertively with prosecutors, judges, or a jury if needed. If you find yourself in this difficult position, please reach out. Together, we can protect your rights, preserve your dignity, and give you the best chance to move forward.

I understand the anxiety, frustration, and confusion that accompany criminal charges. Fines, potential jail time, and the stain of a permanent record can all seem overwhelming—especially in a town where everyone seems to know everyone else’s business. My priority is straightforward: protect your rights, respect your story, and guide you toward the best possible outcome.
