Car accident lawyer | Jun 25

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Great attorney who has been a leader among Colorado lawyers. Darin will zealously advocate for his clients. Many lawyers in Colorado seek out Darin and his law firm to co-counsel cases or simply for advice. Darin is well respected among attorneys, judges, and insurance adjusters. He has taught hundreds, if not thousands, of attorneys on both basic and complicated legal issues. I highly recommend Darin as your attorney."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
