Zachary D Warren's Lawyer Endorsements
"Zach is one of the most competent, intelligent, and good-hearted attorneys I have met. He is an asset to the Colorado legal community and is dedicated to his clients."
"Zach and I worked together at Smith, Hulsey & Busey in Jacksonville, FL. Zach has always been an extremely intelligent and talented attorney, but it is his strong desire to always provide the absolute best possible service for his clients that sets him apart. I would recommend Zach without hesitation to anyone looking for legal representation."
"I had the pleasure of consulting with Zach on a matter he was preparing for Supreme Court review. I quickly learned that Zach is extremely bright, intellectually curious, and sharp. In addition to his impressive aptitude for the law and legal practice, Zach is a humble, grounded, and truly engaging person who really seems to care about effectuating positive reform in the law and bettering his clients' lives. I would wholeheartedly recommend Zach to anyone looking for legal representation in the Denver area. They don't come much better than this!"
"Zach and I began our legal careers together at the same firm. Zach was exceptionally bright and talented then, and has since become a great attorney. He is trustworthy, highly capable, and committed to advancing social justice."
"Zach is one of the most ethical and intelligent people I know -- attorney or otherwise. He has a clear commitment to representing individuals whose civil rights have been violated, and the judgment, drive, compassion, and attention to detail to provide consistently high-quality legal services to his clients. Zach also has a quite unique capacity to think creatively, and the courage to challenge the way things have been done for a while if they do not make sense, even though following convention may be easier and more comfortable. These attributes are important for any attorney, but especially important for attorneys who practice in the challenging, complex, and often cutting-edge field of civil rights. I endorse Zach's legal skills and acumen without hesitation."
