Best Attorney in Colorado

After consulting with 4-5 law firms around the area, I was starting to lose hope that I would find the kind of legal counsel I was looking for. Luckily, I stumbled upon Justin Blow's website and sent him a desperate email describing my situation. Less than an hour after my email, I got a call from ...Justin. He immediately calmed my nerves. From the get-go, he was talking to me not as a potential client, but as a friend. I quickly knew that I wanted this man to represent me. The very next day after our conversation, he drove way out to Golden to meet me and view the area and situation where I was arrested. Justin went above and beyond my expectations. He gave me his number and encouraged me to text and/or call him whenever I had a question (I had many!). Whether it was by email, text, or calling, he promptly got back to me on every occasion. One night, my friends and I were at a social outing and Justin needed me to sign a few documents before going to my hearing. Rather than ask me to come meet him, he drove clear out of his way to meet me with my friends. My friends were so impressed that one of them wanted to fire his current attorney and hire Justin! I was charged with a DUI. Justin and I went to court 5-6 times throughout the whole process. He candidly spoke with the DA and you could tell immediately that the DA respected him greatly. The standard plea bargain for DUI is DWAI. Justin was determined that we could get something better than that considering the details of my case. His insistence on communicating with the DA made him drop the plea bargain down to reckless driving. Even after the plea offer, Justin was still very confident about our chances going into trial. Justin gave me plenty of time to think it over and gave me a very detailed explanation about the pros and cons of going to trial. Ultimately, after some serious soul-searching, I decided not to go to trial and take the plea. This decision was in no way based on my confidence in Justin's ability to get me acquitted - I believe Justin could accomplish just about anything in court. Even after all of the court proceedings, Justin helped me get enrolled in classes and he personally wanted to send my letter of completion to court. I procrastinated a little bit getting the classes taken, but Justin kept in touch with me to make sure I was meeting the court-ordered deadline. Mr. Blow is hands down the best attorney I could've asked for. He easily navigated me through one of the most difficult experiences in my life. In hindsight, I can't imagine how things would've turned out if he wasn't representing me. I whole-heartedly endorse Mr. Blow and I can't thank him enough for his help! If you get in legal troubles and feel like you don't know what to do, do yourself a favor and call Justin Blow - it's the best call you'll ever make.

very nice and knowledgeable

Justin was very helpful with answering questions about a federal conspiracy drug charge. He is a very nice guy and was quick at getting back to me with information I was wanting. I would hire him if the charges were in Colorado.

"I personally come to Mr. Blow to ask for a second opinion on many legal matters. Mr. Blow is well informed on the Sentencing Guidelines as well as the Rules of Evidence. Mr. Blow is always personable and easy to talk to concerning legal matters. If fact, he can take a complicated legal issue and provide you with an easy to understand answer (we all know that most lawyers can't do that!) Great guy and excellent attorney."

"Justin is an excellent attorney; his knowledge of the law and his persistent advocacy has resulted in highly-favorable outcomes for his clients over and over again. In addition to this first-rate representation, Justin brings many other things to his law practice. His professional ethics are unimpeachable. His honesty and candor may sometimes approach the point of being blunt, because Justin genuinely cares about his clients and it shows, whether by meeting a client in custody at 11:00 at night or by giving clients his cell number to make himself more available. If you or someone you know is facing a possible criminal conviction, do yourself a favor and call Justin Blow."
