James Edward Merson

Jim is the man!!! I was charged with multiple felonies in 2023 and was incarcerated and working with a different attorney that was no help whatsoever. My family got in touch with Jim, and ended up retaining him. He took over and quickly got things rolling extremely quickly. I had never been in legal ...trouble before and had no idea what was going on. Jim was very patient, and helped me understand what was happening and what his plan was. All things considered he got a very good outcome for me in my case, and I fully believe he is the go-to guy in Northern Colorado. I hope to never need Jim's service's again, but should I need an attorney again Jim will be my first call!

James guided me through a difficult situation with ease and made me feel very comfortable over the 2 years that I used his services. He was always available to answer any and all questions, day or night, weekday or weekend. He always fought hard for me and we received the best possible outcome in the... end. Thank you again!

Jim Merson took my case after the public defender did nothing. Within two weeks, Jim Merson did more that the public defender did in 9 months. I highly recommend Mr. Merson. He is fair on his rates, he is direct and let's you know what is happening in your case. He is as good as they come. He ga...ve me back my life.

James Merson went above and beyond what I would have expected from a defense attorney. He impressed me through and through with true concern and respect for me and my case. He had fresh ideas on how to approach my case which showed me he was truly giving me the time and consideration that I deserved.... I had violated my current probation in California when I was arrested in Colorado for pretty much the same thing so I was a bit nervous, to say the least. I was so concerned about my case that I did a little shopping around and another respected local attorney said I was in good hands with Merson. After a motion to suppress the evidence filed by Merson was granted by the judge, I thought I was in the clear and was celebrating. I thought I won. About a month later Merson calls me to explain the DA appealed the judge's decision to the Colorado Supreme Court. WTF?!?! That can happen?. Well, it can and did. Could I really trust him with years of my life on the line? Is he going to give me the best defense I deserve? Christ this case is for marijuana in CO. My case continued to the state supreme court where Merson and I again felt total confidence that our motion to suppress the evidence would be recognized as correct and upheld at the state level because it was clearly an illegal search. Merson always responded to my calls and texts even though I'm sure I behaved like I was his only case. I still can't believe that only two of the seven State Supreme Court judges agreed with our position. No matter what Merson was ready and willing to continue the fight for me. God, I wanted to but I had to consider a lot, time, being the main thing. I chose to take a plea which continued to be a headache. Let's not forget during this whole proceeding, which took 2 years, I was technically a fugitive from my original probation in California. Merson even called my probation officer and lawyers in California and was able to arrange a deal to terminate my probation in California, unsuccessful of course, but terminated based on, I was going to be Colorado's problem. Colorado was gonna send me to prison, probation, a program or whatever. Making that happen was no joke since I was facing up to 8 years just in Colorado not including what California could have given me. I'm now one year into 5 years of probation and my 90-day jail sentence. James Merson used all of his knowledge and skills to provide the best representation I could possibly have. But truly the best lawyer I could have had. Now he's able to help you with his own practice and trust you want him working for you! I'm eternally grateful to him. Thanks buddy!
