DUI Conviction Avoided!

Great experience working on my DUI case. Ultimately, she was able to have it resolved with a wet reckless which avoided the need for me to go on probation. That saved me not only time, and hassle, but money. Worth every penny!

Excellent, professional and responsive!

Kimberly handled a challenging case for me where I was seeking to have a case from almost 35 years ago sealed. She immediately took on the challenge and got the case sealed. Finally, I can leave that behind! Thank you so much!

Posted by Grace | August 13, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Kimberly is a very professional lawyer

Kimberly handled my traffic violation case. She was very knowledgeable, capable and responsible and handled my case with the utmost professionalism. My case was dismissed - the best result that can be sought after. The whole process has been quite painless for me. I would definitely work with ...Kimberly again and would recommend her to anyone needing her advice/help.

Efficient and Quick Service

Hired lawyer for five record sealings. She filed the same day and they were all finished within a month. Couldnt believe it. Thank you.

Case dismissed

I hired Kimberly to defend my daughter who was charged with assault in Denver. Being out of state it was very hard to know who to hire having now want to ask for a referral. Kimberly worked very hard to secure at dismissal and my daughters case, having to negotiate with multiple prosecutors to achiev...e this outcome. We are forever grateful and can now move on from this terrible ordeal.

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.
