Outstanding Lawyer

I have nothing but positive things to say about Trent. He is an extremely knowledgable, patient, hard working, ethical person. I was very satisfied with my settlement and his support through the entire process. Trent entire office is outstanding, highly recommend.

Pleasure to work with!

I've been working with Trent for the past couple of years and he has made the process about as smooth and easy as possible. He was always very patient with me to explain things that I did not understand. I highly recommend hiring Trent as your attorney.

"Although Trent's primary practice is focused on representing plaintiffs in personal injury matters, Trent's vast knowledge of many different areas of the law has proven to be a great asset to our firm. Trent truly cares about each of his clients' cases, and he tenaciously advocates for their interests. Trent has argued before the Colorado Court of Appeals and the Colorado Supreme Court, and his confidence and experience have made him an exceptional attorney. I absolutely endorse Trent."

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.
