Criminal Defense, Western Colorado
Areas of Practice
At The Law Office of Don Nottingham, we provide the following legal services.
DUI and DWAI
Alcohol-related driving cases are one of the most common accusations in Colorado. Defending against them requires technical and legal expertise to be prepared to challenge the traffic stop and the evidence that will be presented.
Domestic Violence
Allegations of crimes against an intimate partner profoundly affect lives - both the accused, and the alleged victim. Don will get your life back on track, in a way that will improve your situation, and will do it quickly.
Theft/Burglary/Trespassing
Even though they are "only" property crimes, theft, burglary, trespassing, and similar allegations can have significant consequences on your life. Don will help to minimize or eliminate those consequences.
Assaults and Sexual Assaults
When an allegation of assault or sexual assault is made, the life of the accused turns upside down, and often without good reason. The penalties for these crimes can last for a lifetime. Don's experience in dealing with hundreds of these types of cases makes him the best lawyer to help someone charged with any of these types of crimes.
Drugs
Drug laws in Colorado continue to evolve and finally recognize drug addiction as a medical problem rather than a criminal one. Nonetheless, police and prosecutors often see drug users as the bad guy, and have the power to seek prison and other serious penalties. Let Don fight to keep you out of jail and out of the system for good.
Traffic Violations
Though they may seem unimportant compared with other crimes, Don knows that traffic charges can affect your license and your insurance rates. Don will analyze your case to make sure the charges are appropriate and to ensure the best outcome for you.
Juvenile
Juvenile cases require a particular set of skills. Don takes particular pride in acknowledging the mistakes that young people - all young people - make, and finding a way forward without compromising their future.
Civil Protection Orders
When someone - often a former partner - puts you in danger, the law allows a court to order that person to stay away. Don can handle this process for you, ensuring that you can live your life without fear.
Victim Representation
Colorado law is designed to protect victims, but often those in charge of that protection need to be reminded of their duties and obligations. Don has navigated the system hundreds of times for victims, and knows exactly what a victim is entitled to. He'll make sure you are protected.
