Doug Cohen was extremely helpful in helping me with a citation I (Colorado resident) got in Wyoming. I was found to have a very small amount of marijuana in my car, and Doug helped me navigate the Wyoming court and got me a great deal that ended up being a small fine and some community service hours ...in exchange for a deferred and eventually dropped sentence. He also ensured so I didn’t have to commute from Denver to Wyoming to fulfill my community service hours or any drug testing. Doug is super communicative and, responds quickly to all texts and calls and explains everything really clearly, while also being a really nice person.

I was referred to Doug in July 2022 due to a DUI charge in Cheyenne, WY (Laramie County). Never having any previous charges in my life, and therefore not really knowing the best course of action, I pled guilty to the DUI in my initial hearing. I contacted multiple attorneys in my home town, none of w...hom returned my calls once they learned I pled guilty. So I was in a panic as I had no idea how to navigate the "system" I was dealing with (WY DOT, my mandated ETG tests, my court ordered Substance Abuse Evaluation, etc.). I was finally referred to Doug, and after the experience I had with the previous attorneys, I wasn't expecting much. I told him at the beginning of the call that I had pled guilty, and not only did he spend 30 minutes advising me on that initial call, he advised me that he didn't want to take any money because as I had pled guilty he wasn't sure what he could do! Not something I was expecting at all. However, his assistance didn't stop there. Over the course of the next three weeks, we traded emails (which he always promptly responded to) where he advised me on matters such as: 1) Since it was my first offense, he informed me of WY Statute 7-13-301 The Deferred Conviction First Offender Statute that allows the court to place the defendant on probation, and if/when those probationary requirements are met, the initial charge is dismissed. I made this request and it was granted! I wouldn't have even known to request this were it not for Doug. This likely saved my career as otherwise, I would have had a DUI conviction on my record for 10 years. 2) He suggested I write a letter to the presiding judge, as well as the DA, in advance of my sentencing hearing letting them know it was first offense and why I think I qualified for the Deferred Conviction, which I did. 3) he navigated me through dealing with the Wyoming Dept of Transportation to make the request for a Probationary License, which was granted. This also helped me avoid damage to my career as it allows me to continue to drive to and from work every day. 4) He helped me prepare for my SAT/ASI Evaluation. As a result, I the recommendation I received was for the minimum 8 hour DUI class. During our email correspondence, I again offered to pay a retainer to secure his help, but again, as he felt there wasn't much he could do due to my guilty plea, he wouldn't take it. I can't tell you how impressive this still is to me, especially after my initial attempt to secure counsel. Not only does Doug and his firm come highly regarded by others in he legal profession (the attorney who referred me to Doug is tops in his field in Colorado), I can attest, based on my experience, that he is an honest, ethical person who clearly wants to help.

I got in some trouble in WY for an allegation of sex assault of a minor for which there was a 5-year delay in the reporting of the case where the DA was extremely difficult to work with and was very intent on getting the maximum penalty which included a lengthy prison term. Doug did an excellent job ...of navigating all of the issues that came up. He went as far as to hire an attorney that was from the local jurisdiction in order to have a better idea of how the case would be handled since I live in Colorado and had to travel back and forth for all proceedings. Doug was very involved throughout the entire process and was always available if I had any questions. In the end, he was able to resolve the case by getting me probation of a reasonable length with no time in jail and was successful in getting a very unreasonable request for restitution denied even after the rest of the case had been completed. He was very professional and if you ever have any type of sex case, I would highly recommend that you give Doug a call because he will do whatever it takes to ensure the best possible outcome and will always be honest with you as far as where your case is headed and what he thinks the next step should be.

Mr. Douglas Cohen is an excellent Attorney and frankly "a good guy". He was persistent in making sure the out come of my case was fair. He truly cared and understood the aftermath of my case could of had serious consequences to my Professional career. Fortunately, my case had the best end-result and ...I am very appreciative. Douglas"s team was communicative and resposive as well. Thank you so much Doug !!!!! Andres Mejia.

In January 2021 my husband and I hired Doug Cohen to be our attorney in a very serious criminal case that my husband had been arrested for. We had never had any dealings with the legal system before so we were lost and did not know where to start. Mr. Cohen met with us the very day that we called ...and spent adequate time getting to know us and our case. Right away he filed paperwork with the local courts and started getting all of the information that he needed. One thing that Doug told us up front was that the court system and proceedings would take a long time. And they did! But Doug was always there to reassure us that it was normal and we would prevail. He came up with lots of ideas that ultimately helped my husband's case. Mr. Cohen spent many hours talking to our local DA to come up with a plea bargain. He also traveled 3+ hours to be at the sentencing and spoke at great length in my husband's defense. What could have been a lengthy prison sentence ended up being a deferred judgement and probation. We will be forever grateful to Mr. Cohen for helping us in our time of need. Please call Peak Legal Services if you are in need of a professional and genuinely caring attorney. We are so glad that we did!
