Blessed to have her on my side

Janene has been a blessing in my life for the legal situation I encountered. She was with me and my family 100% of the way and worked diligently to see my case to the end. I am amazed at her professionalism, knowledge and perseverance she shows. Janene has a commanding presence in the court room. I w...ould recommend Janene McCabe for any criminal defense case.

Strong Recommendation

I am an attorney on the East Coast, so when a family member needed a criminal attorney in Boulder County, I put a lot of effort into finding the right attorney for his case. The effort was worth it. Janene McCabe is an outstanding lawyer. She knows the law, the process, and the people (judges and ...prosecutors). She was able to explain everything to us thoroughly and clearly outline our options for me as well as for the defendant, while respecting the trepidations and nervousness arising from criminal procedures. Janene helped us reach an acceptable result and we appreciate her help.
