Matthew J.

Business Owner

I have over a decade of criminal law trial experience that I use to serve the people of Colorado. Upon my graduation from law school with honors, I spent over five years as an attorney at the Kane County State’s Attorney’s Office where I handled thousands of criminal cases. In 2006, I joined the Air Force JAG Corps. I received high marks as a prosecuting attorney. The Judge Advocate General of the Air Force then chose me to become a military defense attorney. Despite glowing reviews and a promotion to Major, I decided to leave active-​duty to become a civilian defense lawyer.
