Great Lawyer

I hired Sean for a personal injury case. Our case finally went to trial after ten years, three appeals and oral arguments in front of the Colorado Supreme Court. Sean was outstanding during the two week trial. His court presence was mainly responsible for the large settlement we received. If yo...u want a lawyer that will go the distance for you, be there every step of the way, no matter how long it takes, a call to Sean first, will be the best decision you can make.

The best attorney in Denver!

You cannot go wrong in hiring the Olson Law Firm. Sean Olson is one of the brightest and most talented advocates I have ever had the privilege of meeting and working with. He worked so hard and compassionately on our case and truly cared about the cause and the outcome. Above all else, he honored our... wishes and always supported us throughout the process. He was excellent in communication, meeting with us, and keeping us apprised every step of the way. If you want an attorney who will work so hard for you, care about you, and get you the outcome you want, hire Sean. There are not enough good things to say!

Medical Malpractice

Sean Olson represented me for a medical malpractice law suit and secured a settlement that was as large as could reasonably be expected. Before choosing Olson, I interviewed four other attorneys; Olson was clearly the best fit for me. I suppose that there is nothing joyful or satisfying in the purs...uit of any case that requires litigation but Sean's bright attitude and cheerful demeanor made the process much more tolerable. I felt relieved and confident from the first day that I retained him. His consultative approach made me feel that I maintained sensible control of my own case with the security of being able to rely on his judgment, experience, and resources. As a career teacher I've learned that the teacher's own character is the most potent idea in the classroom; I believe the same is true for a lawyer. Sean's good and pleasant character help make him an effective negotiator and a potent force in the legal arena. I would not hesitate to use him again and I sincerely recommend him. The only thing preferable to retaining Olson would be simply to not need a lawyer in the first place.

Life changer

I am happy to recommend Sean, he worked very hard for a year to get my Case resolved he really put in the work and Care to help us win our case. He used loving Care when we were at our most fragile time of our life. Sean really helped the jury to see what difficulties we had to live through and how u...nfair this situation was for our family. I wish Sean the very best and most success.

Appreciative of Sean's hard work and dedication

I hired Sean to represent me regarding a work related appeal. He is professional and thorough. Because of his hard work and dedication, we won the appeal and it was wiped off my record. I have now transferred within the City of Denver and I don't think I would have had this opportunity without S...ean's representation. If you need representation with an appeal please do not hesitate to contact Sean Olson.
