Defendant
Pro Se - Attempt to Defend Own Case
|
|
1.
Adequate Time. If sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your
driver's license defense and if prospective client approves this
attorney's fees and costs structure, attorney will
likely accept license defense representation. This shall
not constitute an offer of representation; attorney and
prospective client retain discretion through
first
consultation. |
|
2.
Insufficient Time. If you've waited until the eleventh hour and there is not
sufficient time to prepare an adequate defense before a DOR
license suspension or revocation hearing, please do not call. I decline. |
|
|
|
3.
Limited Assistance.
Please do not call requesting instruction, directions, legal theory,
forms completion or limited document drafting, partial representation, or an explanation of
applicable law to assist you in defense of your own license
hearing. I decline. |
|
|
|
|
Attorney
Policies
Representation
by Previous Attorney
|
1.
Current Attorney.
Until an order has entered withdrawing representation by an
attorney, an ethical rule violation exists if counsel
knowingly speaks to another attorney's client without current
attorney's consent. This ethical rule governs all
attorneys. Please do not call until after
you have terminated representation by a former attorney.
DOR hearings are set quickly. Please be aware, after
other counsel's withdrawal it may be
difficult for a new attorney to prepare your defense in time for
hearing. |
|
2.
Adequate Time.
If prospective client terminates employment of the
former attorney, if sufficient time exists to adequately prepare your
defense, and if prospective client approves this
attorney's fees and costs structure, attorney will
likely accept defense representation. This shall
not constitute an offer of representation; attorney and
prospective client retain discretion through
first
consultation. |
|
3.
Insufficient Time. If you've waited until the eleventh hour and there is not
sufficient time to prepare an adequate defense before a driver
license hearing, please do not call. I decline. |
|
|
|
4.
Second Opinion.
I will not arm chair quarterback another
attorney's defense tactics or theory of
defense. Please do not call for a second
opinion or an opinion regarding the competence
of your current defense. I decline. |

Attorney Trade Area and Travel
CASES OUTSIDE EL PASO COUNTY
GEOGRAPHIC
DISTANCE
ECONOMIC
CONSIDERATIONS |
|
Colorado is a big state. |
|
Ease of internet access, email and toll free
phone doesn't change that fact. Due to the limited nature of DMV hearing
defense, it is not economically justifiable for a client to pay DMV
hearing travel time or
expenses outside
El Paso
County. |
|
DMV hearing defense -
limited trade area |
|
|
|
|
|
Attorney
is very willing to travel outside the Colorado Springs area to present
or defend a case,
but please be aware travel time, mileage and expense would apply. If you are
from out of state or are unfamiliar with Colorado
geography, refer to the map to determine where
Colorado Springs is
located in relation to the county of your court case or hearing. |
|
|
|
If travel is
necessary, a
trust deposit
would be required to cover anticipated travel time, mileage &
expenses. If it is not economically justifiable to retain
my services with travel, please contact counsel in the locale of
your case. |
