Criminal Defense Services in Highlands Ranch
Wolf Law handles a full range of criminal charges. Here are some of the most common cases we defend in Highlands Ranch and surrounding Douglas County communities:
DUI and DWAI Defense
A DUI charge in Colorado can lead to steep fines, license suspension, mandatory alcohol education, and even jail time. If you’re facing a first-time offense, the penalties are serious. If it’s a second or third DUI, the consequences escalate quickly.
Wolf Law thoroughly examines every aspect of your arrest: Was the traffic stop legal? Were sobriety tests administered properly? Was the breath or blood test reliable? These details can mean the difference between a conviction and a dismissal.

Domestic Violence Defense
Colorado treats domestic violence allegations with zero tolerance. If you’re accused, you could face mandatory arrest, restraining orders, and the loss of your right to possess firearms—even before a trial. We understand that not all allegations reflect the full truth, and we work to ensure your voice is heard.
Wolf Law approaches domestic violence cases with nuance, protecting your legal rights while helping you navigate the complex family, social, and legal consequences.
More information is available on our Domestic Violence Attorney page.
Drug Crimes
From simple possession to distribution charges, Colorado’s drug laws carry harsh penalties depending on the type and quantity of substance involved. Drug-related offenses can also impact student loans, employment, and housing.
We defend clients charged with:
- Possession of controlled substances
- Possession with intent to distribute
- Prescription drug fraud
- Marijuana violations (despite legalization, some uses remain illegal)

Assault and Violent Crimes
Being accused of assault, battery, or another violent crime can put your freedom at serious risk. Colorado law distinguishes between different degrees of assault, each with escalating consequences.
We investigate all aspects of the alleged altercation—including self-defense claims, mutual combat, and unreliable witnesses. Our legal team pushes back against overcharged cases and ensures the prosecution proves every element of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.

Juvenile Criminal Defense
If your son, daughter, or other loved one is facing criminal charges in Highlands Ranch, the consequences could impact their future education and employment. Our firm works with families to address juvenile delinquency, underage drinking, drug possession, and vandalism charges with sensitivity and discretion.
We aim to keep young people out of the adult system and preserve their record wherever possible. Learn more at Juvenile Crime Defense.
Record Sealing and Expungement
Many people don’t realize they may be eligible to have their criminal record sealed, meaning it won’t show up on most background checks. If you were arrested but not convicted, or if you’ve completed a deferred sentence, you could qualify. In some cases, even some cases that resulted in a conviction could qualify to be sealed.
We can help you determine if you’re eligible and guide you through the process. Visit Record Sealing for details.
