About Caeb

Mr. Colravy grew up in Piper City, Illinois and Tampa, Florida. He has lived in the Washington, DC metropolitan area since 1999. Mr. Colravy received his undergraduate education at the University of South Florida in Tampa, FL, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science.

 

Mr. Colravy attended law school at the Washington College of Law at American University in Washington, DC. He graduated from law school with cum laude honors and was selected as the “Outstanding Graduate” by the law school faculty. He represented his first clients while still a student attorney in the criminal justice clinic and the human rights impact litigation clinic, and won his first jury trial before graduating law school. He was also the research assistant to Prof. Michael E. Tigar, former chair of the American Bar Association’s Section of Litigation. He worked with Prof. Tigar to plan a 10-day training program for Texas attorneys defending clients facing the death penalty.

 

Following law school he was selected to be a law clerk for a judge in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, Maryland. Following his judicial clerkship, he became a trial lawyer in the Maryland Office of the Public Defender in Montgomery County, where he aggressively represented thousands of clients. As a public defender, he received excellent professional training and gained extensive trial experience. Mr. Colravy has successfully tried hundreds of cases at both the District Court and Circuit Court levels.

 

After years of service in the public defender’s office, Mr. Colravy entered into private practice at a small Rockville law firm, where he continued to practice criminal defense, in addition to civil litigation (including personal injury, divorce, child custody, and general civil matters).

 

 

Mr. Colravy is a member of the Maryland State Bar Association; the Bar Association of Montgomery County, Maryland; the District of Columbia Bar; and the Maryland Criminal Defense Attorneys’ Association.

      Review Caeb Colravy

      Wonderful lawyer! Goes above and beyond the call of duty!!

      Posted by

      Caeb helped me on a last minute basis and worked until we ran out of options every day. He helped me get my children back when I was wrongly accused of a domestic incident.

      Great Defense Attorney

      Posted by

      Mr. Colravy kept me informed at every step of the case. He took time to explain the process to me. He is a very dedicated attorney and I was extremely happy with the outcome of my case. I have recommended Mr. Colravy to friends that have used him for criminal defense matters, family law cases and every person has been happy with his representation.

      Felony Representation

      Posted by

      Caeb was very helpful in limiting the impact of the charges. He worked aggressively with the State's Attorney and the plaintiff's lawyer to reduce the charges. I highly recommend Caeb and will continue to use his services.

      Did a great job

      Posted by

      I had a traffic case and Mr. Colravy was great. He explained what to expect when I went to court and kept me informed about what was going on with my case. He explained my charges in plain English so I could understand how it all worked. I will definitely use him again if I need to go to court.
