Representative matters
Protecting a century-old family farm. We defended a Northern Colorado farm, owned by the same family for nearly 100 years, against oil and gas operations that threatened its irrigation rights.
Taking on national insurers. We have represented policyholders against State Farm, Allstate, Nationwide, Farmers, and CSAA in state and federal court.
Holding a local government accountable. When a neglected main sewer line sent sewage into our clients’ Boulder County homes, we helped them recover for the damage to their homes and belongings.
Turning a lawsuit around. When a Western Slope property seller was sued over an undisclosed defect, we helped her pursue professional negligence claims against the brokerage that advised her.
Defending a church’s property. We represented a church in a dispute with its commercial neighbor over the covenants governing their shared property.
Water across Colorado and beyond. We have represented water conservancy districts, farms, and landowners in four of Colorado’s seven water courts, and we have litigated Colorado River issues in federal court.
