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.

Helped Me Through a Rough Time!

I became quite the habitual traffic offender with two speeding tickets and one ticket with two charges totaling 12 points. Jeff brought the 12-pointer down to a 3-pointer and a small fine, and saved my license with the two other tickets at bay. I had a lot of trauma at the time of the tickets, and he not once judged me. He is quick to respond to a call or email or text and walks you through each process. I am so glad I listened to earlier reviews because he made this process so much easier. I would definitely recommend him to anyone dealing with similar infractions and problems!

Gets the job done!

I recently hired Mr. Wolf for a 23-year-old case and I am extremely satisfied with his service. Mr. Wolf was very knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate throughout the entire process. He kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I understood everything. The outcome of my case was better than I expected, as it was dismissed. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney. Mr. Wolf is efficient and effective, and he truly cares about his clients.

Professional. Attentive. Experienced. Successful.

I was referred to Jeff by one of my friends who was recently represented by Wolf Law in his DUI case; I will be forever grateful for that recommendation. Jeff made this extremely stressful process feel much more manageable from start to finish. He was always responsive and highly communicative, even throughout my barrage of anxiety driven questioning. He was a maestro in the courtroom and was able to get me the absolute minimum penalties. He even got certain areas of my very unique case dismissed – saving me thousands of dollars in the process. While I hope I never have to, I will surely be recommending Wolf Law as DUI representation to any of my friends and family in the future.

Great Lawyer

I am very pleased with the outcome of my court case. Colleen Kelley kept me informed on the various process and was successful in removing my name from sex offender registry. I highly recommend Colleen Kelley if you need a lawyer.

I Will Definitely Hire Mr. Wolf Again

I turned to Wolf Law for help after a small bumper ding in a Starbucks parking lot escalated once the Denver PD was involved. Jeff expertly stepped in to keep the matter from getting any more complex, including speaking with a Denver Police Officer who seemed intent on imposing the most severe charges possible. Jeff continued his zealous representation of my case in Traffic Court where he worked out a reduction in the ticket with the Denver City Attorney and also eloquently explained the situation and the facts at hand to the judge, resulting in a reduction in the fine. Wolf Law exceeded my expectations on this case and managed to keep me calm about the severity of the charges throughout the process. I would highly recommend Wolf Law to anyone and everyone, and if I ever have the need, I will definitely hire Mr. Wolf again.

Best in Colorado

I literally Googled who the best criminal defense attorney was in Colorado and Mr Wolf was in the top five but his name obviously stuck out to me. He ended up going above and beyond and really sticking up for my husband who was facing a lot of charges, and potentially a lot of time. All of his cases ended up getting dismissed because of the work that Jeff wolf put in and because of the way he was able to stick up for my husband at a time that he really did need somebody to do so. So from the bottom of my heart thank you so much to Jeff Wolf who, in my opinion, is indeed the best criminal defense attorney in Colorado.

Professional and Knowledgeable

I cannot be happier with Jeffrey Wolf’s representation in my court case. He was very direct, no time wasted. Very professional, and above all very knowledgeable and qualified as an attorney. I was facing felony charges that were unfounded and Mr. Wolf saw the truth immediately, believed in me despite the allegations and got all charges dismissed. He always kept me informed and current with his progress, and offered very sound advice. I also would consider him a friend as well. I highly recommend Mr. Wolf to anyone needing serious legal counsel.

— Bill F.

Professional and empathetic

I contacted Wolf Law for legal assistance with a case that had extenuating circumstances requiring someone experienced and understanding. When I first spoke with Jeff, he helped put me at ease and on the path to a resolution. Jeff promptly informed me of each new development in the case, while being sympathetic to my situation and advocating on my behalf. I’m incredibly satisfied with the result of the case and the speed at which Jeff achieved that outcome. Jeff was able to rectify a life changing event to just be a bump in the road.

— Mark Horgan

Working with Wolf Law

I strongly encourage anyone with legal needs to use Wolf Law LLC. Jeff was professional, efficient and got even better results than I originally anticipated. I hope to avoid legal issues in the future, but if anything were to come up, there is no where else I’d turn to.

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.
