About Kenneth
Biography
Ken Eichner is a prominent attorney known for his courtroom skills and his ability to effectively
tell his clients unique stories. He specializes in defending individuals and companies in high-
stakes, nationally profiled state and federal prosecutions, as well as government investigations.
With a background as a former prosecutor, Ken has a wide range of experience defending
individuals and companies in often high-stakes, nationally profiled state and federal
prosecutions and government investigations. Ken, a former prosecutor, is best known for his
courtroom skills and ability to tell each client’s unique story. His practice runs the gamut from a
robust county court jury trial docket to defending enforcement actions brought by local
prosecutors as well as the Colorado Office of the Attorney General and the U.S. Department of
Justice (DOJ).
Ken mounted a formidable defense and successfully blocked indictments relating to the Clinton
email investigation, and represented the former Secretary of State’s Denver-based server
company at the subsequent congressional hearing in Washington, D.C. That same year, he also
obtained dismissals of sexual assault charges against four individuals. In 2018 he represented a
witness in the congressional hearing related to allegations against United States Supreme Court
Justice Brett Kavanaugh. In 2019, the firm won $2.7 million, the largest verdict in Colorado
history in a defamation jury trial stemming from a person of color’s wrongful imprisonment for
one night in jail. In 2022 Ken helped facilitate dozens of dismissals in county, state, and federal
court – including cases involving IRS grand jury investigations, domestic violence, gun
violations, PPP fraud allegations, and a national security allegation. Having tried over 500 bench
trials and 150 jury trials, Ken lends his expertise and sits on the advisory board of LYRIC (Learn
Your Rights in the Community), a social justice platform that teaches teens their constitutional
rights. LYRIC’s transformative vision: that raising awareness about individual rights will reduce
the number of unnecessary arrests and subsequent traumas that often occur.
Former prosecutor, Kenneth F. Eichner, is one of Colorado’s premier criminal defense lawyers. Ken has practiced in the county, state, and federal courts for more than 25 years and has tried hundreds of cases to verdict. Regardless of the severity of the charge – Ken and his team provide the expertise his clients need to make the best choice in deciding whether to go to trial or make a deal. For Ken and his team of relentless investigators, determined legal researchers, and accomplished experts, no case is too tough and no case is treated as routine. Their success of the firm hinges on an extraordinarily thorough review of the evidence, and deep expertise and skill in trial litigation. Eichner Law dedicates its full concentration and resources to achieving the best possible outcomes.

Felony Dismissed. Ken is one of the best!
I was falsely accused and charged with a felony. I don’t want to get into the details but all I can say is Ken and his team, especially Kate Hennessy, were determined to get the felony dismissed – and they did. Kate and the team’s investigator left no stone unturned. If you need good representation f...

Great Criminal Defense Team
I had a very serious issue that exposed me to both jail and regulatory consequences that would have ended my career. Eichner Law’s team protected me from both of those situations. Their responsiveness throughout the legal process was incredibly reassuring. I highly recommend them.
