PROTECTING THE RIGHTS OF ADDICTS
Medical professionals know that drug and alcohol addicts suffer from a very serious condition. For many addicts, treatment and professional assistance is required before they can recover. I am an experienced criminal defense attorney dedicated to helping people who face addiction challenges. In addition to providing strategic defense in court, I will help them explore appropriate resources for recovery.

I have experience involving:

∙ DUI /DWI Offenses
∙ Drug Related Offenses

Sentencing Options in Larimer County

Drug Court: Larimer County is unique in that there are two courts that focus on rehabilitation. For people who are addicted to drugs and alcohol and who WANT to seek help, there may be alternative sentencing options. In Drug Court, the judge will get to know you, assess how you are doing in counseling and work with a team to facilitate a successful completion of the program. The purpose of Drug Court is to provide structure, encouragement and immediate consequences for defendants. By staying actively involved, the Drug Court program prevents people from slipping through the cracks of the system and holds them accountable to change.

DUI Court: Larimer County also has a DUI Court. The program is designed to help problem drinkers with multiple DUI convictions successfully address their addiction to alcohol. Through a program similar to the drug court described above, the judge and other personnel personally monitor defendants as they work through the system.

My Commitment To You

I know that my clients can get very anxious at the time of sentencing. I will take the time to answer your questions and remain available throughout the duration of your case. I will take the time to review all relevant evidence, review police reports, consult with witnesses and experts and explore every option and alternative to help you on the road to recovery. If a problem arises, you can trust that I will communicate with you directly and remain open and honest about the prospects of your case.

TESTIMONIALS

What Do Our Clients Say?

Omar Rodriguez

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.

Tamra Engle- NREMT

Dave & Lisa kindly & patiently assisted me through the legal process, and directed me to pretrial education which made a terrifying experience manageable- I would recommend him without reservation-

Kyle Black

Probably the best I could have expected of DUI to go. Mr. Johnson was very attentive and therefore me through every step of the process. Would definitely recommend!

Chad Bryant

David and Lisa displayed attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine care throughout my case and helped me through each step of the process. I’d recommend this office to anyone feeling concerned or worried about the legal process and is looking for professional representation.

yeah

Respectful, invested, through. Speedy resolution in my case. Exactly what I wanted and needed from an attorney.

Asa Gomez

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.

Virgil Steward

David was great. On time and very polite

Raj Kumar

Great experience with David Johnson! 5/5 would recommend to a friend! His assistant was wonderful, and David would always be quick to respond back to me/get ahold of!

John Newman

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.

Thank you for your legal services. At the height of our legal issue, you were calm and helped us feel calm. You helped us through a difficult time in our life. God bless you.

Jane Doe,

Thank you so much for going out of your way to help me with my ticket. I really appreciate it. Thanks again.

Jane Doe,

Jon’s a good friend of mine. I hired him to handle my personal injury case. When I told him the insurance company hadn’t offered anything (including to pay my hospital bills), he was taken aback. He handled the case from beginning to end and we settled with the insurance company for $50,000.

Jane Doe,

I appreciate your help to finish a fight that I certainly didn’t ask for. Your kindness and professional help got me through it all. Thanks Again.

Jane Doe,

We just wanted to thank you and your office for everything you have done for our family! You really helped save our year! Thanks a million.
