About Stephen
Biography
For more than three decades, Stephen Whitmore has served as the firm’s premier civil litigator, overseeing complex disputes from his Denver Metro office. A seasoned trial lawyer, Steve has tried hundreds of cases and counseled clients on commercial litigation, contract enforcement, landlord-tenant issues, debt collection, foreclosure defense, replevin, construction-related claims, and lien litigation. He adeptly represents both sides of a dispute—plaintiffs seeking redress and defendants defending their interests—and has worked with financial institutions, developers, contractors, automotive dealers, entrepreneurs, and private individuals. Representative successes include a six-figure jury award for a subcontractor, a multi-year reduction of a bank’s $200,000 claim to $15,000, a federal excessive-force settlement, mechanic’s lien recordings to secure payments, dismissal of a defamation suit arising from online comments, and drafting easement termination notices.
