"Each of us is more than the worst thing we've ever done." — Bryan Stevenson
Casey Krizman built Krizman Law for one purpose: to be the law firm you call when everything is on the line. When the charges are serious. When the stakes are life-altering. When you need someone who will fight harder than anyone else in the room.
Krizman Law handles the heaviest cases in Colorado criminal defense: murders, sex assaults, violent felonies, and serious drug offenses. This is not a firm for minor matters. This is a firm built for the cases that matter most.
As a former public defender, Mr. Krizman brings rare insider knowledge of the criminal justice system: how prosecutors think, how cases are built, and exactly where to attack. He has spent his entire career mastering the craft of criminal defense, and he brings that mastery to every single client.
A Colorado native, Mr. Krizman graduated from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, where he was a member of the prestigious National Trial Team. He holds a bachelor's degree in Government and World Affairs from the University of Tampa and completed the Program on Negotiation Mastery at Harvard Business School.
Outside the courtroom, Mr. Krizman competes as an Ironman triathlete and has coached trial advocacy at the high school, undergraduate, and law school levels. He is married and the father of one son, Atticus.
Prior to joining the Colorado Bar, Mr. Krizman clerked for renowned defense attorneys Michael S. Axt and Randy C. Canney.

Thank you for the second chance!
