Best Attorney in Colorado

I have had the chance to work with Molly Jensen and her staff on a DUI issue of mine. I was unable to afford a lawyer and Molly still took on my case pro-bono and never once allowed my inabilities to pay affect her or the quality work she provided. She was amazing and got my case dismissed before tra...il. I am a disabled Veteran with no means to fight this case. Without her and her staff a innocent person would have been convicted. A DUI conviction can destroy your life and Molly understands what that means and how to listen to your concerns. I truly appreciate Ms. Jensen and her staff. Top notch work quality and care. I would recommend Molly Jansen to anyone looking for legal advice and assistance.

HIGHLY RECCOMENDED, GREAT LAWYER!

I hired Molly for a felony DUI case. I was in serious trouble, and after a lengthy phone consultation i decided to hire Molly to represent me. This was by far the best and smartest decision i could have made. Molly and her staff were both always very informative and always willing to talk to me an...d answer my questions whenever i called. I was never made to feel that i was bothering or being a nuisance, even when i felt that i was! Molly fought for me and was able to lock in the best possible outcome i could have ever asked for given my legal situation. I highly recommend Molly, no matter what your situation may be, she is definitely going to fight for you to achieve the best possible outcome for your situation

Amazing

I highly recommend Molly Jansen. First off I have only had one experience with lawyers was through my divorce and I wasn’t to pleased with their services and I have never had any legal issues. I was very skeptical about hiring an attorney and upon consulting with a few I was told I didn’t have a very... “strong case” mostly due to a very botched traffic stop and arrest and i didn’t want to get charged with a crime I didn’t commit. I am someone who will admit if I am in the wrong for something if that had been the case I wouldn’t have sought legal council. I had finally consulted with Molly and she took her time went through every detail with me from that night and advised me on my rights and even gave some legal advice and this all even before I hired her on as my attorney. She was very straight to the point nor did she blow smoke she assured me it wasn’t going to be an easy process but it was worth the fight. From day one I had felt like she had my best interest and was willing to fight for me and on top of that she is an extremely compassionate human being at the beginning of all of all of this I got extremely sick and ended up in the hospital and her first concern was how I was doing and continued to check on me. And like I had said before I didn’t have a “strong case” and there was no plea deal on the Table. I got my day in court she walked me through every step of the process not leaving out any details I let her do her thing and it was amazing to see how much she had studied the case and how much knowledge of the laws and law enforcement protocol she had. And when I say she is with you every step of the way I mean it she was with me in between every break making sure I was fine and and if I had any questions. I was found not guilty on Both a DUI and DWAI. I am extremely happy with my decision to go with Jansen Legal to defend me on this case.

Excellent experience with Molly Jansen

I had an excellent experience with Molly Jansen in the disposition of my case. Molly was very attentive and responsive, and she had a very fast grasp of my case complexities. Molly also assisted with related issues concerning out of state legal matters, and helped educate other attorneys on my case.... Molly is a great find!

Posted by Chris K | July 13, 2018 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

I hired Molly and Jansenlegal twice. I couldn't have made a better decision.

I had a DWAI, my second offense. Molly returned contact within 24 hours to hear my situation. I gave her every detail I could remember. No lies. She told me how things would go every step of the way. She even adjusted her schedule a few times within reason, to keep our meetings from affecting my job.... Not once did I feel unsure of the actions we took. In my event, the situation was against me due to a fill-in DA, a hard Judge, and not being offered any deal for over 4 months. We were about to take the case to trial and Molly had struck an unheard-of deal with the DA. Later, I ended up in the doghouse with probation. They were trying to revoke my deal. Molly and Jansenlegal was able to represent me and my actions to the court and squash the revocation before it started. I can't thank Molly and Jansenlegal enough for the time and efforts they put in for my case. I highly recommend Molly and her firm for DUI and DWAI cases in and around the Denver area. Her expertise is beyond that of another lawyer I hired in the past. Her knowledge and confidence exceeded my expectations. When I needed to contact Molly or Jansenlegal there was never a big-time delay. I could reach someone to get answers about my case within a few hours given their current situation or schedule. I think it should be said if you get a different person in lieu of the lawyer you were to have in court. That lawyer has given you the best fill-in for them with confidence. I had a fill-in or two and they did great. When Molly was present I knew there was a reason she was there and everything she did was worth the efforts. Also, if you're not honest with your lawyer it comes back on you. Anything left in the air will end up becoming a problem and not having a plan for that will take the life out of your defensive plan. When your case is being rescheduled for another date, it’s because that time gives your defense more time to get the best possible plan of action. Or you asked for more time and they tried to get that for you. You hire a lawyer to represent you, to be honest with you and to guide you through the legal system. Molly and her team does this to the T and will not sugar coat what needs to be said. If you need to hear it, you will. Straightforward, blunt if need be, no Bull$eit. I hope I will not need to, but if I ever do need a lawyer again, my first choice will be Molly Jansen and her firm. I highly recommend you contact her about your case and see what she can do to help you.
