When i went to court for weed

Never met the guy till my last court day but we didnt need to met, he keep me updated with text messages so it felt like i was work right there next to him and he worked hard to get me a deal the brought my fines down for a 1300 down to 400, and personally seems like a stand-up guy. Highly recommende...d

long distance legal help

Colin was recommended to us when our daughter faced criminal charges relating to her alcohol addiction. We were in a very difficult position because our daughter faced serious charges and we live in New England. Because of our distance, communication was particularly important to us. Colin ret...urned every call promptly and he patiently walked us through Montana legal system. We would recommend him strongly.

Really really good

Mr.delli bovi went above and beyond with all the work he did on my case and some he is more than an attorney . But a really good man who what I would consider one of the top five attorneys in the Helena area.

Proffessional Defense rcomended by "Aleged" Proffessional Criminals

I have had Colin as my attorney on several occassions. He has saved me from potential years in confinement and a small fortune in fines and restitution. Once in court The Judge looked at me with disdain and said that, I was a proffessional criminal. "Aleged," I remarked. There was a stuffled laugh so...mewhere behind me. The judge did not looked impressed with my new found legal terminology. The prosecuter glared at me like a wolf hardly able to contain herself from devouring me. I felt like a lamb led to slaughter. I looked over at Colin. He then nodded at me reassuringly that I was correct. We decided to take the case to trial and I once again was able to prove my innocence with him by myside as my attorney. Not that the prosecuter appreciates me anymore. Also on seperate occassions, Colin has proven my innocence and resolved in or out of court I believe in total 14 misdeamenor charges and atleast three potential felonie charges that I was innocent of. He is hands down the best attorney I have ever heard of. Visiting me in jail during holidays and off hours. Accepting expensive phone call charges from jail at odd hours, ( even when I at the time had a different attorney and he knew that) in order to pass on messeges for me to family and bail bond companies with out charge with no questions asked. He goes above and beyond the call of duty more than any Defense attorney I know or have heard of. He cares about his clients and takes the defense of them very seriously. I have come to feel confident in court with him as my Defense Attorney standing between me and the wolvves who would rather eat me.

A Great Lawyer

I needed a lawyer to represent me in a criminal case and I called Colin. He personally met with me within an hour and was very knowledgeable and helpful. He answered any questions I had and some questions I should have had and didn’t ask. He managed to get me a very good judgment in a very short p...eriod of time for which I am very grateful. He was always available and was very professional as well as giving me peace of mind. I was completely satisfied with his services and I highly recommend him. If I needed a lawyer ever again, I would not hesitate to hire him again.
