About Richard
Biography
I grew up in Denver with my family who remain in the Denver area. My interests are mainly arts related; I am a fan of the local opera company, High Desert Opera, and the local music.
I graduated from Regis University in 2004, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree, with honors, in Finance and a minor in Business Administration. During my undergraduate period, I maintained full time employment with a large food distribution company based in the Denver area.
In December 2007, I graduated early from the University of Tulsa College of Law, receiving my Juris Doctorate degree. I explored the legal field widely while in law school, working as a research assistant to one of my professors regarding cultural property, studying abroad in both Ireland and Argentina, and interning with private employers and the Tulsa County Public Defender's Office. I was also the social chair for the local chapter of Phi Alpha Delta Legal Fraternity.
I moved to Grand Junction in 2008 after a period of interning for the Colorado State Public Defender's Office. Prior to joining Younge & Hockensmith as an associate, I maintained a small practice with a friend from law school in Grand Junction focusing mainly on family law issues.

Excellent experience with Rich!
We contacted Rich regarding a quitclaim deed we were having trouble with. He was professional, knowledgeable and so warm. Really has a heart of gold to match his experience and expertise.

My opinion
Did not listen to hear why I was there. Had my situation resolved without knowing facts. Frustrating.

Impressed
Richard was very professional, and put my mind at ease. After 32 years of marriage, now faced with divorce. Needless to say many concerns, and emotions. I have just started this journey with Richard, but all the faith in the world that he will see the best outcome for me. Thank you Richard.

Helped me beyond expectations
I was put in a bind due to an auto accident, and some very finicky laws leading to the offending party deciding I was at fault. Mr. Lane helped a young, mostly law ignorant guy like me figure out a way to not only protect myself and my license from two big named insurance companies coming after me, b...

Wow
My mother passed away suddenly and we were at a loss as to how to proceed to close her small estate. We (luckily) chose Richard for some legal advice. He very kindly squeezed us into his schedule for a Q & A, since we had all come from out of state and needed to take care of the necessities before re...
