About Derek
Biography
I went to law school at the University of Colorado. While there, I was on the International Law Moot Court team, and served as an associate editor of Colorado Law Review. Fun times, fun times.
I started practicing law as an intern at the DA's office. After a while, I went to the other side of the aisle to criminal defense. At the same time, I got my feet wet in bankruptcy, contracts, family law, and debt collection defense. I spent two years representing people in disability cases before I decided to start my own firm in 2014.
I now specialize in representing people who find themselves in unfortunate circumstances. People who are overburdened with debt or have been harassed by debt collectors need legal help, and I'm here to help them. People who can no longer work because of health issues need their disability benefits, and I'm here to help them. I've dedicated my entire practice to helping people in need, at very reasonable rates.

Very Supportive
I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Freeman when I was going through some very hard financial times. Mr. Freeman always reassured me and kept me up to date on what was going on with my case. I feel that it looked at me as a person and not someone that was an idiot for the situation that I was in! ...
