Best lawyer!

Charlie Fife cleared me out of a DUI conviction. He fought and fought until he got ALL my alcohol charges dropped! The guy did wonders in court. It showed he really knows what he is doing. Friendly staff and easy to reach out to him. Best lawyer in Denver! Would definitely recommend!

Satisfied client

I hired Mr. Fife as part of an ongoing criminal investigation. The outcome was successful. Mr. Fife will fight for you and takes time to listen and answer questions. I appreciated his candor and expertise in the criminal justice arena and would use him again if the need ever arose.

Excellent

Excellent service from start to finish. These are very serious charges you’re facing, and you need advice from people who know what they're doing. Charlie and his associates will give you frank, honest advice and they have the experience to resolve your case in the best possible manner. In my case Mr.... Fife was able to take the points charged against my case from 28 points to 8. an outcome that allowed me to keep my driving liecense after only 1 month

Hands down the best DUI attorney in Colorado

Charles Fife is a fighter. Hands down the best DUI lawyer in Denver. He was able to get my DUI charges dropped down to reckless driving. Charles Fife is a fighter. He fights for his clients all the way and he does not give up until he wins the case. I want to thank this law firm for fighting for me a...nd winning my case. I will highly recommend Fife and Luneau P.C. to anyone facing DUI charges. They are going to go to battle for you and will do everything to win your case.

Awesome Lawyer

I came to Charlie for legal advice on my case before making a decision taking him on as my lawyer. He was very professional, straight forward and didn't make me feel discouraged about my situation. He gave me insight on my case, and that day took him on as my lawyer. So far he has won my DMV case, wh...ich I was very grateful for and did not have high expectations about the DMV dismissing my case. Charlie is very responsive, and worked with a payment plan. I will definitely refer him to anyone that is In need of a PROFESSIONAL LAWYER.

"I endorse this lawyer's work. Charlie is a criminal defense legend in Denver, and leads one if the most respected firms for DUI defense. When I was a prosecutor, Charlie was the guy that made many of the DA's sweat. His rating on AVVO is completely inaccurate as he should be at the top."
