Just the best !

Jacob was so fast and effective solving my DUI. I will be for ever in his debt.

Jacob is a real Star Attorney

Jacob did a great job in handling my DUI case. He went above and beyond to get my case resolved in just one court appearance. I was moving out of state and he got the judge to agree to let me complete all my court requirements out of state . i would definitely recommend Jacob and if I ever have th...e need for an attorney I will call on Jacob to represent me.

Outstanding Job!

Mr. Starkovich did more than represent me, he helped get my family back together. Although he was hired specifically for a dui case it was headed for a custody dispute quickly, He stuck his neck out and fought hard against a D.A. who was determined to impose excessive punishment agianst me. He wa...s aslo determined to fight for my rights as a Father and will forever be thankful for his EXPERTISE and is highly recommended by me, and all my family. Tha

Thank you Tomas. I was happy to help. You still have a battle on your hands, but I know you will keep up the fight!

Best Attorney Available......hands down.

I hired Mr. Starkovich for a DUI case along with a charge for driving without a license. Not only was he extremely friendly and easy to talk to, he also was very knowledgeable. He knows many judges and DAs which helped a lot in reducing my sentence. I have used other attorneys in the past and none ha...ve come close to stacking up to Mr. Starkovich. He is also much more affordable than many other attorneys, and knows more than most. He was always available to speak with me regarding my case and kept me informed the entire time.

GREAT FIRM! WOULD USE AGAIN!

I hired this firm for two issues two months ago. Jacob was great. Passionate and very informative about my case. I don't want to disclose both my cases, however Jacob did better than I even expected... When I went to hire him I read the negative review here and ACTUALLY asked him about it... he e...xplained who this person was and how she had a great plea bargain and accepted it and then got cold feet and wanted all her money back... she ended up hiring another attorney who set for trial (as she claims) and now she is actually set to plead guilty to the same crime (DUI) and plea bargain that Jacob got her)... She filed a complaint and lost because she had no grounds... Jacob said he was never late... So, I felt compelled to rebut and tell you what a good choice he is... I will use him again (hopefully not needed), but I would... Thank you Jacob.

"I have known Attorney Starkovich professionally for over thirteen years. His professionalism and polished presentation in the courtroom is absolutely outstanding. He is a uniquely persuasive litigator with fellow attorneys, judges, and juries alike. When my loved ones have needed an attorney licensed in Colorado over the last several years (I have moved to Illinois), I have referred them, each and every time, to Jacob and, each and every time, he produces fantastic results. It is my privilege to endorse Jacob."

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jacob for several years. He was a prosecutor at the time and I was, and still am, a defense attorney. Even as a prosecutor, he cared about people. Unlike a lot of prosecutors, his focus was not just to get a conviction. He brings that same level of caring and compassion to his clients. I strongly endorse Jacob."

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
