About Michael

Biography

I believe in treating my clients with respect, and in the way I would want to be treated if I were the client. I have over 31 years of experience in numerous and varied types of criminal defense cases, from speeding tickets and DUIs, to serious felony matters, in all Colorado State and municipal courts, including clients with multiple pending cases.

I also represent domestic violence, drug possession, sex offenses, violent crimes, mental health/competency issues, armed self-defense, security guard, and CCW related gun cases. I always advocate strongly to protect my clients' Second Amendment rights.
I've been "around the block," and travel to most courts all over the state (27 counties, so far).

I'm also "old-school," in that I believe in professionalism, courtesy and respect to my clients, judges and prosecutors. I also believe in "real" conversations by phone or in-person, rather than email or text legal discussions. I believe clients should always meet with the attorney, and have time to review a written fee agreement, before making a hiring decision.

Additionally, I believe that ratings for lawyers can be very misleading. Clients that don't get their way with the judge or jury, despite an excellent attorney's best preparation and advocacy on their behalf, will complain, give a 1-star review, and then blame the lawyer. Those clients who are completely satisfied with the results of their case, and how they were treated by the attorney don't post 5-star reviews nearly as often as the complainers will post their misplaced, vengeful, 1-star reviews.

Rather than just go by ratings, I suggest you give me a call and make your own decisions about my integrity, experience, thoroughness, and whether you think I care about you as a client. I strive to offer fair and reasonable rates on a case-by-case basis. Phone calls are returned promptly, and I will actually listen to what you are saying, and be helpful with some answers to your questions. Call to schedule a consultation at no cost to you. Thank you! -- Michael D. Wulfsohn

Inexpensive, Professional Representation

Michael represented me on a DUI case. Even during our initial meeting before I'd hired him, he spent hours going over details of the case with me, all the while taking notes. He always returned phone calls and emails promptly. He also did not sugar-coat the possible outcomes of my case. This wa...s the main reason I hired him, as other attorneys I contacted tended to make lofty, unsubstantiated claims or send mixed messages. I would wholeheartedly recommend this attorney.

Thank you very much, Eric, for the kind and thoughtful words. It was my pleasure to represent you, and I'm pleased that we achieved a satisfactory result in your matter. You also did a number of things on your own accord that greatly contributed to a positive outcome. You're a great client, and thanks again!

Posted by Dennis | July 17, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Highly professional

I can not begin to praise mr. Wulfsohn enough for his professionalisms, his ability to guide me through the legal process, and importantly get my case handled in the best outcome for me. His knowledge of the courts, his previous work with processors and judges, was invaluable in my case.
