I highly recommend this lawyer

Mr Silverman"s law firm is built around an incredible team of highly dedicated professionals. Everyone showed care and honest concern for my case. Pam was great at making sure my questions were answered and directing me along each step. Cassie did an amazing job of making sure all my paperwork was ...in order and making sure I understood each step of the process. My confidence in Matt and Tom to represent me never faltered. When my court date arrived, having Tom Silverman at my side was truly the best choice I could have made. Pam,Cassie, Matt and Tom, I thank you so very much.

Domestic Violence 911 call from Wife

First off I was very distraught when I came into his office because of the night in jail and what my life had turned to at this point. As I explained my situation, he explained the reality of it and assured me that he could work things out for me. I left his office feeling very positive about my c...ase and also calm. He believed me about what i told him and assured me that I was going to be taken care of. I was told by his secretary (Pam) to be patient and Tom knows what he is doing. I have also heard how good Tom is from everyone in the valley that I talked to about my situation. They also said that I couldn't do better than Tom. He was recommended by all others I talked to before hiring him. If you like someone who can put a twist on your situation and explain it to you, then Tom should be your lawyer. By the way, he got the Domestic violence Charge dropped. I really didn't do what i was accused of doing. He and I worked together and within 3 months I won, or Tom won the case for me. I was prepared to go to court with a trial, because Tom was confident he could obtain justice. He saved me a fortune because we didn't have to go to court. He saved my reputation also. He really cares for you personally and will get the job done. Always tell the truth.

WOW what a fantastic Lawyer

Tom Silverman represented me on a criminal matter recently. I have to say he did a stupendous job! He had quite a bit of baggage to deal with as I was on probation at the time I got new criminal charges. Tom Silverman has to be one of the most caring attorneys I have ever met. He not only represe...nted me, he looked at me as a whole person, not just another criminal with a paper trail. As a matter of fact my paper trail has been over the past 10 years. He is a great attorney and his office staff, Pam and Cassie are such good people, they treat you like you are a family member. He did such a good job for me that I can say you need look no further, he is your man no matter what capacity you need him for legally! He is caring and displayed that for the court! He painted me to be the person I am not just the criminal acts I have done, which gave a picture of the real me to the judge! He did a fantastic job!!!

Could'nt ask for more!!

I was pulled over and faced 6 charges, some felonious. Tom worked his magic with the DA and I am a free working man with not one day behind bars, Tom asked me to prioritize what I wanted or didn't want with my case and he followed through with everything from start to finish. He even appeared on b...ehalf for a different case that I had not retained him for just to make sure things went smoothly. Tom cares about his clients and always keeps their best interest in hand.

BAR NONE THE BEST LAWYER IN THE ENTIRE ROARING FORK VALLEY, IF NOT THE STATE OF COLORADO

I hired a high priced Aspen lawyer who claimed to be the best in the business when it came to dui/dwai case that my case would be no problem. well needless to say in cost me several thousand dollars and I never even appeared in court on my case. he would not continue unless I gave him several thous...and more! So I did what any level headed person would do and fired him. I heard about Thomas Silverman through friends and figured I would give him a try not only was Mr. Silverman cheaper but his experience got my case thrown out of court completely! Mr. Silverman is second to none and he is a rare breed he actually cares about his clients and their welfare he isn't in it for the money alone! I personally would recommend him to anybody looking for a well seasoned lawyer whose honesty, loyalty and integrity sets him apart from the rest in his field of work. Mr. Silverman is very professional and so is his in entire staff they are a reflection of him. hopefully I will never need Mr. Silverman legal assistance again but if I do he is the ONLY LAWYER I will ever use.
