Biography
“Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done.” — Bryan Stevenson
Casey Krizman is the Founding Attorney at Krizman Law in Denver, Colorado, a firm built for one purpose: relentless, fearless criminal defense for those who need it most. Domestic violence defense is at the heart of what Krizman Law does. From the most serious felony charges to cases that others might call minor, every client who walks through our door receives the same relentless, fearless defense. Because while your case may not be a felony, it is the most important case in your world. And we treat it exactly that way.
In private practice, Mr. Krizman has compiled an extraordinary trial record of 35 Not Guilty verdicts out of 41 trials, including Not Guilty verdicts in Sex Assault on a Child, Sex Assault and Attempted Murder cases. When the stakes are highest, murder, sex assault and violent felonies, Krizman Law is the firm you call.
As a former public defender, Mr. Krizman brings rare insider knowledge of the criminal justice system. He knows how prosecutors think, how cases are built, and exactly where to attack. He previously served as a Deputy Public Defender at the Aurora Public Defender’s Office.
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. Prior to joining the Colorado Bar, Mr. Krizman clerked for renowned defense attorneys Michael S. Axt and Randy C. Canney.
Outside the courtroom, Mr. Krizman competes as an Ironman triathlete and has coached trial advocacy at Regis Jesuit High School, the University of Denver undergraduate program and DU Sturm College of Law. He has testified before the Colorado General Assembly House and Senate and the Aurora City Council in defense of public defenders’ rights. He is married and the father of one son, Atticus.
