  3. Personal injury
    20%
    Assisting people who have been seriously injured by another's negligence in obtaining fair compensation for their injuries. I work tirelessly to obtain top dollar from the insurance companies for your injuries and to ensure your medical needs are met

ACCUSED OF A CRIME? AS A FORMER PROSECUTOR IN BOULDER AND ARAPAHOE COUNTIES, I KNOW HOW TO GET THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME IN YOUR CRIMINAL, DV, OR DUI CASE. I WILL WORK TIRELESSLY ON YOUR BEHALF TO OBTAIN A DISMISSAL OR FAVORABLE PLEA AGREEMENT, AND WILL ALSO FIGHT FOR YOU AT TRIAL IF NECESSARY.

What makes me different than other lawyers is that I care. When you hire me to represent you in a criminal defense or personal injury matter, I take my responsibility to help you during a trying period of your life seriously. I am the attorney who will visit you in jail just to make sure you are doing okay. I am the attorney who will spend his nights and weekends working on your case. I am the attorney who will go observe the judge in your case in action so that I know how his or her court operates before I appear in your case. I am the attorney who will visit the scene of the crime, or the scene of the accident, and will personally speak to witnesses to assess their ability to testify at trial. I am the attorney who will find every technical and constitutional violation with the prosecution's case. I am the attorney who prosecutors give the best deal to, because they know I will be a force to be reckoned with at trial.

When you hire me, you are getting more than a lawyer. You are hiring a counselor, and an attorney who will listen to and take action upon your questions and concerns. You are hiring an attorney who will search every statute and case that supports your position. You are hiring a tenacious and fearless advocate whose sole mission and focus is to obtain a successful outcome for you.
If you are facing criminal charges or have been injured in an accident, don't hire an attorney who is just "going through the motions." Hire an attorney who will actively and aggressively advocate for you. Hire attorney Mike Ferrell, Esq.

Kind, Warm, and Competent
I’ve hired attorneys on various occasions over the years. When it comes to choosing one, I look for representation that gives me a honest read of the situation. I find that to be the true measure of competence. Michael Ferrell assisted me recently and the end result was very close to how he called it, but above all my interactions with him were warm and calming. Please don’t hesitate to hire Ferrell if you have a need.

He’s the new go to guy for me
I called 28 different lawyers over three days to find the best one. What I liked about Mr. Ferrell is he explained the process to me from start to finish including the best case and worst case scenarios. Most importantly Mr. Ferrell used to work for the other side which was my number one reason for wanting to hire him, because he understands the ins and outs of how prosecutors think. He also offered to take the case for a great price. I had one concern… he didn’t have many reviews and for this reason I called him and told him my concerns and he told me it’s because he had just opened his practice but he has many years of experience. Throughout this process he was very involved, and returned every phone call and email in a reasonable time frame. He was there every step of the way and today Mr. Ferrell won by dismissal of the case which was the best outcome. I’m so happy and will always call Mr. Ferrell should his representation be needed again (although I hope it won’t be :))! I definitely highly recommend him!

Very kind And knowledgeable
Michael was very reassuring and is very good at what he does i had talked to several lawyers before choosing him. And all others did not make me feel confident in them just felt dismissed because of My age. But Michael is very nice and understanding. Really wants to help people and definitely helped me out. Would always recommend him for criminal cases.

Review for Michael Ferrell
I called the office phone on a Saturday. A receptionist answered (ad indicated 24 / 7 hours, and it is true), spoke with me about my concerns. Mike called me later that day and we had a phone consultation. He agreed to take my case. Mike keeps me well informed via phone calls and emails about the status of my case. We have not finished the case yet but great strides have been made in just little over a week. I am satisfied and would hire Mike again.

Personable, knowledgeable, and determined
Working with Mike was a great experience. From the first time I talked to him, he helped to assure me that he would fight to have the charges I was facing dismissed or plead down to lesser charges. He is very personable and his presence at my court date helped me to stay calm and be satisfied with the eventual outcome of my case. Would definitely recommend working with Mike for any type of charges!
