My family hired Mr. Shipp for a DWI case. I agree with what others wrote that he talked about himself and told us all about him and he was so impressed with himself. Because we were in a crunch we had to hire him. We did go through the entire process with him and received probation, and lost the dri...

I worked with Dan on a DWI case and possession case. While we were happy with the results, the billing was huge - a lot more than we anticipated. He also had an assistant talk to us a few times, then when we talked to him we had to explain everything over again and had to pay twice. He also left at l...

Dan Shipp helped me out five years ago I received a DWAI amongst other charges while living in Colorado. Through that process, he was very open and honest about what was to be expected and what he could do. He was able to get the "other charges" reduced if not removed all together, and made the DWAI ...

He charged me a lot of money for a possession charge, way more than some other local attorneys. Every time I called him to check on the case or check on the date, he charged me for the time at like $450/hour - every single call even if I spoke to his secretary.

I would HIGHLY recommend Dan Shipp to represent anyone who is facing a DUI or drug related charges. He and his staff treated me like family the entire time, and went above and beyond the call of duty to help me. Dan personally picked me up and drove me to my court case because I couldn't get a ride...
"Dan is one hell of an attorney who really does do a great job. If I had legal trouble I would want Dan in my corner. He is a hunter, fisherman, sportsman, and a friend. I respect him personally and professionally and will refer cases to him because of results."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Dan for over 17 years and I regularly call on him for advice and ideas on complex DUI cases. I would trust a family member's defense to his office without hesitation. There are precious few DUI lawyers in Colorado that are Dan's equal and he simply has no superiors in this specialty of the law."
"Mr. Shipp is always on the forefront of breaking DUI law and technique. He is nationally recognized as one of the leading DUI practictioners in the courntry, and this is reflected accurately in his speaking engagements. I wholeheartedly endorse Mr. Shipp's work and would recommend anyone charged with DUI in Colorado to seek his service."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Dan Shipp for several years through several professional DUI defense organizations. He spends a significant amount of time keeping up on cutting edge DUI defense tactics. He is always prepared for his cases and he is one of the few attorneys who other DUI attorneys seek out for advice. I would send a family member to him. A true professional."
