Why Clients Trust the Lawrence Law Firm
Experienced Criminal Defense Attorney in Aurora
Getting arrested is very stressful. If you are facing criminal charges in Aurora or anywhere in Colorado, speaking with a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible can make a significant difference in how your case proceeds.
You might want to explain yourself or talk your way out of it. You may try to convince the officer that there has been a misunderstanding. But one of the most important things you can do for yourself after an arrest is to stay quiet.
Anything you say can—and will—serve as evidence against you in court. The prosecution can twist or take innocent comments out of context.
Police are trained to gather information during every interaction. Once you’re in custody, they may try to make small talk or ask casual questions that seem harmless. Don’t fall for it.
They’re not just trying to be friendly, they’re hoping you’ll say something that strengthens their case. Even if you’re completely innocent, talking without a lawyer present is risky.
Invoking your right to remain silent isn’t an admission of guilt, a smart legal move. When the authorities arrest you, you have the right to remain silent. You also have the right to talk to an attorney.
Use that right. Politely tell the officers you want to remain silent and that you’d like a lawyer. Then stop talking. It could make all the difference in how your case plays out.
Domestic Violence Defense Attorney
Domestic violence allegations in Colorado are treated differently than many other criminal cases. In many situations, an arrest is mandatory and a protection order may be issued immediately, even before the facts of the case are fully reviewed. These cases can affect your family relationships, housing, employment, and firearm rights.
Because of these consequences, it is important to speak with an attorney who understands how domestic violence cases are handled in Colorado courts. Our domestic violence attorney carefully reviews the evidence, examines the circumstances surrounding the arrest, and works to protect your rights throughout the process.
We understand that many domestic violence accusations arise during emotional or stressful situations. Our goal is to guide you through the legal process, protect your future, and work toward the best possible outcome in your case.
Domestic Violence-Related Charges We Defend

Experienced Personal Injury Attorney
No one expects to be involved in a serious car accident. When a crash happens, it can disrupt your life and affect your family in ways you never anticipated. You should not have to handle the aftermath of an accident on your own.
If another person’s negligence caused your injuries, you may be entitled to financial compensation. A personal injury attorney can help pursue recovery for your medical expenses, lost income, and the pain and suffering caused by the accident.
Our firm handles personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Our goal in every case is to secure fair compensation and help you move forward after a difficult experience.
It's NEVER Too Early to Call a Car Accident Lawyer
After an accident, it’s natural to want to give your side of the story. But when it comes to dealing with insurance companies, the best thing you can do is pause—and speak with a lawyer first.
After a serious crash, victims often face more than just vehicle damage. Medical bills, lost wages, and insurance disputes can quickly become overwhelming. Understanding your rights after an accident is essential to protecting your financial recovery.
Colorado law allows injured victims to pursue compensation when another driver’s negligence caused the crash. However, insurance companies often attempt to minimize payouts or shift blame onto the injured person. Having an attorney involved early can make a significant difference in the outcome of a claim.
If you were injured in a collision, speaking with an experienced car accident attorney can help you understand your options and avoid common mistakes when dealing with insurers. You can also learn more about your legal rights on our Car Accident Attorney resource page.
In some cases, crashes involve larger vehicles such as commercial trucks or rideshare vehicles. These accidents often involve multiple insurance policies and complex liability issues. Our firm provides representation for many types of motor vehicle cases, including
truck accident attorney claims and motorcycle accident attorney cases involving severe injuries.
Motor vehicle accidents are only one area of injury law. Our firm also assists victims harmed by negligent property owners or unsafe conditions. You can learn more about other injury claims on our
personal injury attorney page.
If you or a loved one was hurt in a crash, taking action early can help preserve evidence and strengthen your case. Speaking with an attorney can help ensure your rights are protected and that insurance companies treat your claim fairly.
Insurance adjusters may seem helpful, but their job is to protect the company’s profits—not your interests. They can use what you say to reduce or deny your claim.
It’s common for adjusters to contact you shortly after an accident, asking for a recorded statement or pressuring you to settle quickly. They may describe this as “standard procedure” or suggest that you do not need a lawyer.
Once you make a statement, it becomes part of the record. It can be used to downplay your injuries, challenge responsibility, or argue that your condition is less serious than it is.
Speaking with an experienced personal injury attorney before communicating with insurance representatives helps level the playing field. Legal guidance ensures your rights are protected and that you are not taken advantage of during a difficult time. Acting early can significantly improve your ability to recover full and fair compensation.
