Relationship: Worked together on matter

I strongly endorse this attorney. I have worked with Ms. Grimes as co-counsel on a fairly complex issue and found her knowledge and insight to be second to none. Jessica has a deep knowledge of the interplay between state and federal laws, which she no doubt gained from her background in the federal system and her extensive experience with Colorado law. I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Grimes to anyone in need of competent counsel.
