also known as Sydney Dolan
I have been in private practice, based in Boulder, since 2012. During that time, my practice has focused on criminal defense. I discovered criminal defense as a student at the University of Colorado School of Law, where I represented people charged with crimes through the criminal defense clinic and as an intern at the Boulder public defender's office. After graduating from law school, I worked at the Adams County public defender's office representing people charged with crimes ranging from DUI to First Degree Murder. I have done over fifty jury trials and many more contested hearings. I take pride in my experience and reputation as an aggressive trial lawyer, but I take equal pride in my experience and reputation as a creative and sensitive negotiator.
It is my privilege to act as an advocate for people who are facing the difficult journey of being charged with a crime. My greatest satisfaction comes from helping my clients through that journey in an intelligent and empowering way.
