An Advocate For You

I realize we all make bad choices from time to time. At times it may feel that life is not fair. Maybe you did something without contemplating the long-term consequences. Or maybe drugs or alcohol impaired your choice.

Now facing criminal charges, you feel overwhelmed. What’s going to happen to you and your family. Your mind imagines worst case scenarios. Will you lose your job? Will you go to jail? Will you be able to support your family? Will you lose the security you’ve created for yourself?

I will help you maneuver these obstacles as well as represent you in the courtroom. I take a holistic approach in working with clients. It is important to look at the whole as we address the legal charges you face. With sound legal advice we will get things moving in the right direction for you.

My Philosophy

Every case is unique and needs thorough investigation. From the moment I’m hired, I’ll be an advocate for you and will build the strongest case I can with the evidence available.

I regularly work with investigators and experts in the fields of medicine, accident reconstruction and forensics. It is through this process we can determine the best approach for your case.

Most cases do not go to trial. Through negotiation, often a favorable plea agreement can be achieved. However, for those times when an appropriate resolution cannot be reached, I will zealously represent you in court.

Counsel That Respects You

My clients come from all walks of life. From CSU students, to professors, parents, business owners, employees, and repeat offenders in northern Colorado, I’ve represented them all. You’re worried, scared, and disappointed. Understandable. I’m here to help. You will be treated with the respect you deserve. I’ll help you find a solution that protects your rights and gives you the opportunity to move forward. I encourage you not to beat yourself up over this. You’re a good person that made a bad choice. Don’t let this case label you.

To find more information or to schedule your free consultation at the Fort Collins Justice office, call (970) 484-0300. We’d love to hear from you.

If it wasn’t for David I’d probably in a way worse of a situation that I am now. Worked hard to get my case where I needed it and fought hard to give me the best possible outcome. In my opinion he’s in of the best attorneys in the northern Colorado area. Would definitely recommend him! Thank you Mr. Johnson.

David Johnson has represented me for this past year, and throughout my legal proceedings he has been dedicated and motivated to provide me with the best council. Renowned in Larimer county, his reputation carries weight in the courthouse and and it was reassuring to hear from others how hard he works for his clients.

I received a DUI charge while visiting Colorado from Tennessee, but was set to move to Arizona 4 months later, making my case quite complicated. David and his team helped me navigate the ins and outs of what was required of me at each step and negotiated a shorter probationary period than what is typical for the circumstances of my case. Additionally, I was told my the probation department that how my case was resolved was much cleaner and advantageous than they had seen for similar cases in the past. I would recommend David to anyone in the Loveland-Fort Collins area.
