Experienced Colorado Criminal Defense Lawyer Aggressively Asserts Clients’ Rights

Denver lawyer passionately represents those accused of felony or misdemeanor crimes

When you are facing serious criminal charges, you need an aggressive advocate who is not afraid to back down. I founded my Denver law firm, Michael G. Root Attorney at Law in 1989 with the exclusive goal of protecting my clients’ constitutional rights and minimizing the adverse effects of a criminal investigation. For nearly 40 years, I have passionately represented clients throughout Colorado who have been accused of homicide, assault, drug crimes and other criminal offenses. No matter what you have been charged with, I will use my extensive experience to fight for your freedom.

Assertive lawyer committed to your case devises creative legal strategies

I focus exclusively on criminal defense law and represent people charged with allegedly committing:

• Homicide — I represent clients who have been charged with homicide, vehicular homicide or similar offenses. Having won multiple first-degree murder trials, I will use my previous experience to challenge the prosecution’s evidence against you and aim for an acquittal, reduction in charges or favorable plea deal.
• Violent crimes — If you are charged with assault and battery, domestic violence or another type of violent crime, I will work quickly to mount a defense to your case.
• Gun and weapons crimes — I am familiar with the laws surrounding the illegal use or sale of a weapon, and I will use my knowledge to defend you against gun and weapons crimes charges.
• DUI and drug crimes — I will seek to get your DUI/DWI or drug crimes charges dismissed at an early stage of the criminal justice process by searching the evidence for anything that may suggest improper police procedures were used during your arrest.
• Sex crimes — If you are facing accusations of sex crimes, I will examine the evidence and search for mitigating factors that may lead to a reduction or dismissal of your charges.
• White collar crimes — I represent clients charged with white collar crimes like fraud, which often involve extensive federal investigations. I will assert your rights every step of the way.

I will use every legal tactic at my disposal in order to reach the best possible outcome to your case.
