Grateful to you Mr. OHolleran
I can not begin to explain how grateful I am to have Mr. O'Holleran represent me in my situation at hand. My situation is complex, it is huge, it is over whelming, it is bigger then me and beyond my knowledge as a citizen trying to live with in our community. It has consumed me and it has taken over my life. I have been dealing with my situation for 1 year and 4 months now. The day I asked Mr. O'Holleran if he could and would help me is the very day I learned that I still am worthy of having someone in my life who cares about what I am going through. For me caring about ones situation no matter what it is that your up against is of one of the most important tools to have in life. I have found this in Mr. O'Holleran. His knowledge of law and how the process of defending someone is unexplainable for me. He is caring, professional and he is quick, and he gets results to your comfort level and to his own. We are not yet finished with my situation at hand, so this is to be continued for I would like to share again with anyone who reads this my final out come. I am confident it will end up with a graceful walk for me in my future because Mr. OHolleran chose to walk with me, not behind me, not in front of me but along my side. Mr. OHholleran Thank you for representing... To be continued For Ever Grateful Barbara

Best of the best.
I have relied upon Jeff O’Holleran on several occasions. His knowledge of the law is first rate. He advised me when I represented myself in traffic court. I defeated the city attorney and got the case dismissed. He later prevented me from having a felony on my record. In both cases, he took the time to explain my options and to outline what each course of action would entail. I have found that his prudent thinking and good decision-making are his greatest strengths. I always feel fully informed of the possible outcomes of each decision that I make along the way, and Mr. O’Holleran always works to get the best possible outcome in each situation. I am also impressed by his previous experience. He is able to use elements from previous and similar experiences to great effect. And, when the case is over he has always explained what is expected of me going forward. He is always available when I call and his staff is so friendly, I know that I can count on Mr. Oholleran to give my case the defense I deserve.

Criminal defense Attorney | Apr 29
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"Jeffrey is an excellent attorney. When he speaks in court, people listen. I worked alongside Jeffrey as a public defender, and I was invariably amazed by his profound ability to immediately earn the trust of his clients, his effectiveness in persuading the judge, and his sound credibility in speaking to members of a jury. Jeffrey is a unique type of litigator in that he is an "outside-of-the-box" thinker, which is a powerful approach in defending an individual accused of a crime."

"As my next-door neighbor at the Denver Trial Office of the Public Defender, Jeff and I spent a lot of time talking about cases and brainstorming how to best help our clients. There were many nights when most everyone else had gone home that Jeff was still at work figuring out how to best help his clients. He is passionate and clearly cares about getting the best outcome for those he represents."
