Beyond my expectations.

Over the last few years through some very regrettable behavior on my part, I not once, but twice was facing the unfortunate, stressful, and downright terrifying prospect of being sent to the Department of Corrections for several years. It was only through Tom’s and his capable staffs dedication and i...mpressive legal knowledge and skill while navigating the local judicial system that I have been fortunate enough to retain my freedom and current living situation close to my family. I can not express how grateful and fortunate I am for all Tom, Pam, and the rest of the staff has done for me. Even when the situation looked hopeless to me, Tom remained dedicated and compassionate to securing the best possible outcome. I am proud to have Tom not only as my attorney, but also now a close and dear friend. I would highly recommend The Silverman Law Office to anyone in need of an attorney who will not just treat you as a client, but as someone who genuinely cares about your situation.

Professionalism and Integrity

I reached out to Tom with a very complicated case. As many of these reviews, I was in a desperate situation. Tom listened and represented me with the utmost professionalism and integrity. The negotiations with the DA and the Judge were always on point and awarded me the best outcome possible. Pam..., his office manager, was also crucial for the success in my case. I am grateful I hired Tom to represent me, allowing me to get my life back on track.

The Silverman Lining of DEFERRED DUI Cases

Tom Silverman is truly the “Silverman Lining” of all cases and courtrooms. And in my case, a deferred DUI sentence! That’s how good he is. His experience and expertise in law, compassion and understanding towards his clients, and attention to every little detail makes him one of a kind. With what cou...ld have been a devastating outcome for me and my future (a nursing student with a whole future ahead of her), Tom presented my case in court in a way that made me feel that I was seen for more than a case number or conviction. He made me feel like a human being and took the time to understand me and my background. He fought for my best possible outcome and it paid off! He was committed to my case from beginning to end, informed me, and prepared me every step of the way. I could not be more thankful for confiding in Tom for helping with my with my case. He should get more than 5 stars! Along with Pam, his warm hearted, educated, and welcoming assistant!

My Miracle Maker

I 100% guarantee that Tom Silverman is the best attorney there is out there. I was being investigated and charged with Bank Theft. This was a serious case, I was facing 9 charges most of them felonies. After thousands of dollars and no luck with my first attorney I decided to visit miracle maker Tom... Silverman. From the first visit I could see the difference and professionalism compared to my previous attorney. Pam always so sweet and caring was always there with a smile on her face. She always kept me up to date with my court dates and if for any reason could not reach me by phone she would always find a way to keep me updated. She always found a way to keep me informed. Mat Pearson, always so supportive in my court hearings. He always made me laugh while we were there and although it was tough to be at a courtroom his great attitude and funny comments always made it go smoother. When I met Tom his words and confidence brought me peace of mind. This man invested all his time in my case. Never did I feel lost, like I did with my previous lawyer. Everything they did for my case they explained with such detail. They never did anything that was not in the best of my interest. Tom took time out of his personal life to meet me on Saturdays so we could discuss my case we were there for hours and hours. He never seemed upset and was always motivating me to feel like everything would turn out okay. Tom’s professionalism and patience made me feel like I could count on him and that putting my life in his hands and his team was the best thing for me and my family. I knew Tom would not let me down and he would fight for me because as his client i was important to him. He wasn’t just fighting for the best deal he could get me, this man was not giving up on me, he was fighting for my life, my children and my family. Tom, my miracle maker and I walked out of that courtroom with 2 misdemeanor charges, no Jail, no probation, no nothing all this on a bank theft case. There are no words to describe my happiness and gratitude towards this man. I want to let you know that you can put your life in his hands because this man makes miracles. If you are looking for a miracle with your case go to Tom Silverman you will not regret it. He saved my life I’m 100% sure he will save yours.

Knowledgable and methodical! The best attorney in the Roaring Fork Valley!

For the first time in my life I had a run in with the law and it was not pretty. I was facing an uphill battle and needed a real pro! I hired Tom and I must admit he is superb. His knowledge of law coupled with his strong methodical mind made my case have a stellar outcome! Tom and his assistant Pam... really care about your situation, offering forward thinking, sensibility, and compassion to those of us in a legal bind. When everything was said and done I knew that Tom would fight any battle to the fullest extent for me! Tom is an Ace!
