At Wolf Law, we know that being charged with a crime in Colorado can turn your world upside down. Whether it’s a DUI in Denver, a domestic violence allegation in Arapahoe County, or a felony charge in Jefferson County, one thing is certain: you need help—and fast.

Our mission is simple. We defend the people of Colorado. And we do it with heart, grit, and a deep understanding of the Colorado criminal justice system.

Charged With a Crime in Colorado? You’re Not Alone.

From the moment you’re arrested, you’re up against prosecutors, police, and a system that’s not built to give you the benefit of the doubt. At Wolf Law, we believe every person deserves a strong defense—and a second chance.

Led by seasoned attorneys Jeff Wolf and Colleen Kelley, our team handles a wide range of criminal charges across Colorado, including:

We’ve seen the fear in our clients’ eyes—and we’ve stood with them in court, helping them find their footing again. You don’t have to face this alone.

Understanding Colorado’s Criminal System

Colorado’s laws are constantly evolving. At Wolf Law, we stay up to date on every nuance because those details can change the outcome of your case.

For example:

  • Colorado no longer uses the death penalty. That means even the most serious cases have life-centered sentencing outcomes.
  • Misdemeanors have been overhauled—now split into just two classes instead of three, plus a unique structure for traffic offenses.
  • Drug charges are classified separately, with distinct penalty ranges for felony and misdemeanor drug offenses.

Jeff Wolf is not just any attorney—he’s a trusted legal analyst who’s been featured on Court TV, Law & Crime, and numerous media outlets for his insight on complex criminal cases. When you hire Wolf Law, you’re getting a voice that Colorado and the national legal community trusts as part of the team.

What Happens After You’re Charged in Colorado?

Whether you were arrested for a DUI or accused of a violent crime, here’s a general idea of what happens next:

  1. Arrest and Booking
  2. Bond Hearing (in Colorado, everyone but first-degree murder defendants is guaranteed a bond—it’s about whether you can afford it, not whether you’re eligible)
  3. First Appearance / Arraignment
  4. Discovery and Motions
  5. Negotiation or Trial

Each step matters. The sooner we get involved, the more options we have to protect your rights, challenge the evidence, and negotiate the best possible outcome.

What Sets Wolf Law Apart

  • Local Expertise: We know the judges, DAs, and courts throughout Colorado—including Denver, Jefferson, Adams, Douglas, Boulder, Broomfield and Arapahoe Counties (more commonly referred to as the Denver Metro Area).
  • Personal Attention: You won’t be passed off to other attorneys. The lawyer you hire will be the lawyer that works your case with a full team at their disposal behind the scenes.
  • Trusted Reputation: From TV legal commentary to courtroom results, Wolf Law is known for fighting hard and fighting smart.

— Charlie G.

The best in Colorado!

Mr. Jeff Wolf was a pleasure to work with. He did an excellent job representing my case. He walked me through the whole process answered all of my questions and concerns. I am very pleased as his client with his professionalism, attention to detail, communication, and most importantly the result he was able to achieve for my DUI case to be dropped. Definitely will be recommending Jeff Wolf Law to family and friends.

The Wolf

I’m incredibly grateful for everything Jeff has done for me. He treated me with respect, took the time to truly listen, and made a stressful situation feel manageable. I always felt supported and confident knowing he was in my corner. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone who wants an attorney who genuinely cares and delivers results.

— Dorean G.

Cares about clients

I’ve had a few attorneys and as most know attorneys mostly care about the money and the payday your case brings them rather than their clients and thats my experience with attorneys.

When I first called Wolf Law they instantly showed their interest in my case and not money. After my initial call to Wolf Law, Jeff Wolf called me back as soon as he had the chance to discuss options and what it would look like if I hired him. He gave great advice and no pressure to use him. That goes along way when looking for an attorney. Jeff and his firm care about their clients and that’s why he will be my attorney moving forward.

— Dylan

Sensitive Criminal Matter

At first I was unsure, working with attorneys can be so stressful and difficult to gauge if they can help you effectively. I used this firm for two different cases and I was glad that they were reasonable and didn’t tell me falsehoods. Straight to the point and don’t promise you rainbows and butterflies. That is what you want: a straight up lawyer who doesn’t give you nonsense. Be patient, they will help you and you can feel like they forgot; but that’s just how this stuff goes. Court cases take time and they have many clients, its nothing personal. When we went to court everything was laid out for me to understand and I think they prepared for each task. Each case was handled professionally and they answered all my questions. Thank you, Cassandra and Colleen

A Great Help in a Time of Turbulence

After being convicted of a DUI for marijuana, I quickly searched for an attorney. I chose to contact Wolf Law first because of the certifications and positive reviews that I saw. I am very glad that I made this choice. This was my first time in trouble with the law, so I didn’t quite know how to handle the situation, but with just a few meetings, phone calls, and emails I felt confident towards the resolution of my issues. Jeff explained everything thoroughly and made sure I knew everything I needed to know and more. I personally needed only a few meetings and talks, but I know that Jeff would be glad to meet or talk as much as necessary. He is clearly very passionate about his work and is a well of legal knowledge. I began with several charges and seeing an overwhelmingly bad outcome in my future, but as Jeff and Wolf Law fought for me, the charges faded away until only one remained and even it was reduced. I left with what I view as the best possible outcome for my given situation. Wolf Law not only helped mitigate the consequences of my mistake, but also granted me great comfort and guidance through the whole experience.

— Bryan C.

First Rate Legal Representation

If one were to Google all the attributes that you want in legal representation, Wolf Law would check off each box. His entire staff is helpful and professional. As for Mr. Wolf himself, his expertise and straight-talk are exactly what you want and need in an attorney. The outcome of my case matched my most optimistic goal. I thoroughly endorse Wolf Law.

Jeffrey Wolf is an Exceptional Defense Attorney

From my very first conversation, I knew that I was in good hands being represented by Jeffrey Wolf. He was extremely honest about my situation and gave me clarity about possible and likely outcomes, never sugarcoating anything. Mr. Wolf has excellent communication skills as he explained all the aspects of my case to me in great detail. He skillfully navigated me through the most difficult and stressful event of my entire life while always exhibiting concern for my personal wellbeing throughout the process.

I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney to represent me. Mr. Wolf was great during negotiations with the DA, great in the court room (which was always done via WebEx), always very calm and confident, but firm and never let himself get pushed around by anyone. As a result, Mr. Wolf negotiated a much lower sentence with the DA which allowed me to avoid prison time enabling me to be home with my wife and continue watching out for my 91 years old father.
Thank you, Mr. Wolf!

— Mike Forstner

Amazing law firm

I am so glad I came across this law firm. I was fighting a domestic violence case and needed some assistance immediately. I picked up the phone and called Wolf Law and was treated like family from that moment on. Cole took my call and got me right to Jeff Wolf during that call so I can attain his services asap. Mr. Wolf went above and beyond and got me on his busy schedule to discuss the case and explain the legal process to me. Mr. Wolf stayed in constant contact throughout the case, providing updates as he received them so I knew how the case was going to proceed. I’m happy to say with all his effects and knowledge of the law we beat the case, I’m forever grateful of his services. I couldn’t have found a better firm to represent me.

Colleen Kelley and Wolf Law

In the past few years I have had the unfortunate circumstance of needing a criminal defense attorney. I cannot overstate how fortunate I was to have chosen Colleen Kelley. I can honestly say that without Colleen on my side that I would have been sentenced to significantly more time and more serious charges than were warranted in my situation.

Colleen is undoubtedly a major reason as to why I am free today and able to move on with rebuilding my life. I would without hesitation recommend Colleen to anyone who needs a criminal defense attorney.
