Legal Defense Review

Neil was very helpful in defining and explaining the legal ramifications of the case. He was very patient answering my questions. He was prompt returning my calls and stayed in touch with me. He knew the the Arapahoe County DA's office well and was very professional at developing a plan that was lega...lly fair and equitable

Advocate for those who can’t fight for themselves

My parents hires Neil to represent my brother in two cases. My brother is brain injured and often understand the consequences of his actions. Neil quickly established a rapport with him as well as with the authorities. As a result of Neil’s efforts my brother avoided a stint in prison and is receiv...ing the mental health assistance he so desperately needs. Neil is a great lawyer and a wonderful human being. We recommend him without reservation.

Knowledgeable, Personable, and Respectful Attorney

Mr. Silver is very knowledgeable of State, Federal, and Municipality laws. I came to him with what should’ve been simple cases but instead were complex and very frustrating. He took the time to discuss the nature of the cases and different outcomes. He went above and beyond for my daughter and I an...d both of our cases were dismissed. Unfortunately this is not possible for everyone, but if you are looking for an attorney who knows the legal system, I recommend Mr. Silver.

Great Mind, Provides Great Options

Neil was a great help for me at a time that was difficult for me to see the end in mind. His depth in the legal world proved very useful while assisting me in my case. Any criminal work is not beyond him, and if he doesn't know, he finds an expert to assist. A true professional! He saved me jail time... and allowed me to live my life again! Have and will continue to send him referral overtime I can...

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
