"John is one of the brightest DUI lawyers in Denver and he is a person that I go to for advice on many issues. His advice is always appreciated and I would recommend him to anyone facing a difficult criminal or DUI charge."

"I am very happy to endorse John Buckley as a true expert and attorney in DUI defense. Unfortunately, what many people facing a DUI don’t know is that there are literally hundreds of attorneys in any metro area who will handle their DUI.
However, maybe only a handful of these attorneys truly know how to defend these complex scientific cases. If you submitted to a blood test or breath test then you need an attorney who has years of formal training and experience defending these complex cases. And no one knows blood test cases better than John due to his years of experience as a certified phlebotomist and SWAT team paramedic.
Rest easy knowing that John has your case. He is one of the top DUI attorneys in Colorado.
