Professional, Knowledgeable and Informative

I called Molly to get some advice in regards to filing a petition to seal a case that occurred over 10 years ago. She spent time with me on the phone explaining what was needed to be done in order for it to be handled quickly and accurately. Since I am from out of town and would not be able to appe...ar for a court date I decided to hire Molly to handle the entire process for me. She was very through, detail oriented, honest and fair. She informed me of all the steps involved and kept me up to date on the completion of the process and once the petition was granted. She is a pleasure to deal with and I would certainly use her again.

Mrs. Jansen is the BEST

Mrs Jansen is by far the most professional, knowledgable, and outstanding attorney that I have ever met or heard of. She is always attentive to your needs and will fight as hard as she can for you. I was accused of a DUI because I was found in a parking lot passed out in my car. We went into tria...l with a no drive defense, that she spent many of nights figuring out the best way to win. After all was said in done, because of her professionalism and trial experience, we came out victorious. I'm convinced it's all because of the work that Mrs. Jansen did prior to the trial and then her "bulldog" attidtude to not accept failure during the trial that we won. I would STRONGLY recommend Mrs. Jansen for not only DUI'S but for any trouble you might have found yourself in. She will give it her best shot, which you won't find better, and you have the best chance of winning with her than any other attorney that might say they are the best. If you don't consider her as an option then you better like the sight of a 9x9 cell!

Smart aggressive

Molly was a very smart and aggressive lawer that helped my case. Without her I would have lost my license for five years. Molly will do anything she can to help your case. She knows the law very well and she also does not put up with any b.s. . So if your looking for a lawer that has your best intere...st in mind she is the one for you.

The hardest working lawyer in denver!!!

Molly and her team are in my opinion and Experiance the best criminal defense lawyers you can ask for!! Molly worked on my case for about 3 yrs, she was determined to see justice prevail and with her by my side it did. I would HIGHLY recommend Molly and her team to represent you in your case. Molly ...always kept me informed on what was going on in my case, discussed different options with me but ultimately left the decision up to my family and myself and not matter what I decided I have never seen anyone work so hard to make sure the out come was in my favor. It was a long and sometimes dark and seemingly never ending road but with Molly there was always a light that it would all be ok. The thing that seperates Molly from other lawyers that I have delt with is she treated me like a person and not just a case and I am forever greatful for that!!! You may see people on here upset with there out come of there case but remember we are looking for a lawyer for a reason you can't expect magic if you have made a mistake !! I love Molly for what she has done for my family and i and forever greatful for her dedication to her clients and YOU would be a FOOL to not hire her for your case!!!

Winning the case!

When I received my second DUI, although the first was in another state, the courts would eventually find it. I knew I needed good counsel. Molly was sharp right off the bat. She laid out her promises to me, and fullfilled everything she said. After reviewing my case, she found an aspect that would wo...rk to my benefit and exploited it. Starting from the DMV hearing down to using it to win my case. She set up the case for the district attorney to fail. Being very thorough on achieving what she needed to win my case. Even when I was at the point I just wanted to negotiate, and get the best deal I could, she encouraged me that she felt we had a great chance to win. At the motions hearing she had her plan laid out, with all the ammunition she needed. She took advantage of the police report, the transcript from the hearing and good legal precedents that put the DA on his heels. The DA did everything he could but was found lacking. Nothing quite like winning a case that could have had so many disasterous results for me personally. At the end, the cop walked up to me, shook my hand and said "well played". All I could say was "it wasn't me, it was having a great lawyer".
