About Us

Seasoned Trial Attorneys Fighting For Our Clients

Our firm is a small, but exceptionally dedicated partnership of trial lawyers. Some law firms are “settlement” firms who have never been to trial. In contrast, our attorneys have tried over 100 jury trials with extraordinary results.

We are able to obtain remarkable settlements based on our history of success in the courtroom. If you are looking for a law firm with the experience to challenge and defeat large insurance companies and corporations—our firm is for you.

At Denver Trial Lawyers ®, we understand that filing a legal claim—even if it is a righteous claim—can be intimidating. Don’t let fears about the insurance industry or the legal system stop you from obtaining fair compensation for your injuries. Our lawyers in Denver will help you feel confident and comfortable pursuing a claim.

We are Denver's own Tom Martino Consumer Protection Team.
