About James
Biography
Born and raised in Colorado, I've spent the better part of the last 20 years in Boulder. I received my undergraduate from the University of Colorado and after graduating from Gonzaga law school, I returned to Boulder as Chief Deputy District Attorney. During my tenure my focus was on criminal and juvenile crime.
After several years of public service, I moved into private practice as a criminal defense attorney at McCormick & Kennedy, P.C in Boulder. My experience as a former DA has been a significant benefit for my clients as I am well versed in the procedures and tactics of the prosecution. You can read more about me on my website at .
As a former DA in Boulder I know the prosecution tactics and can build a solid case in your defense.

You need an experienced DUI lawyer to minimize the impact this charge can have on your life.
I am experienced in defending offenses related to spousal abuse, child abuse and domestic violence.
