Crisis Intervention and Calm Presence

Will was integral to our daughter understanding and getting through a young adult life crisis involving two separate charges. He worked with our daughter and us, her parents, to see us through this difficult time. Her legal situation's resolution was the result of her own hard work, yet having Will a...s her attorney was integral to her positive outcome. His knowledge and advocacy for her was excellent. We will always be so appreciative of Will Breitigam, Esq.

DUI Case - Very Good Lawyer

Very glad I went this lawyer. Had an otherwise DUI charge dropped. Fees were reasonable. Highly responsive, both he and his assistant were efficient and professional. Would recommend.

Excellent Lawyer

Will has been in our corner on more than one occasion for our family over the years . He is caring, straight forward and always on top of things. He is always available to take questions, and is never judgmental of your circumstance. Solid guidance and representation, especially regarding DUI's. ...We will always choose Will whenever we are in need of an excellent lawyer. Highly recommend

Very caring!

I hired Will Breitigam when a bad night turned worse after the cops came to my home and arrested me with a DV charge. I had never been in trouble before, and was so lost. I could not get any answers about my charges and how to defend myself. I wasn’t able to get a public defender, so again I couldn’t... even ask questions at the office. When I met Will he was straight up with me. He gave me answers about my case, how to proceed RIGHT away. He kept me informed, answered questions when I was feeling scared through out the process. He fought for me and charges were dropped. He gave me a second chance!

Domestic Violence Case

Facing Domestic violence charges in Ft. Collins is not a good position to be in as I soon found out. After contacting Will and understanding the situation it was very clear to me that this was not something to face alone . Upon hiring will he took control of the situation and put my mind at ease . Th...is case was handled professionally and victorious in the end . I would certainly recommend William Breitigam if in this type of a situation.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have worked with William Breitigam as opposing counsel on a number of different criminal cases. He is a strong advocate for his clients and a professional, hard-working attorney. Mr. Breitigam is passionate about his work and is committed to getting the best outcome possible for his clients. Unlike a lot of defense attorneys, he has significant trial experience, knows when it is appropriate to take a case to trial and has the skills to do so. If I had a friend or family member in Northern Colorado who needed help with a criminal case I wouldn't hesitate to refer them to Mr. Breitigam."

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
