Peak Legal Services LLC - Denver, CO

At a time when a relative of ours faced a serious legal issue concerning sex offense allegations involving Colorado and Wyoming law, it was critical that we would need to act quickly to locate and retain an established law firm with extensive experience in criminal law. Based on previous client reviews and track record of Douglas T. Cohen of Peak Legal Services came to our rescue. Doug not only had to face multi-state issues, but Doug also had to deal with a difficult District Attorney, various notification delays and a potential lengthy prison term based on the original charge in Wyoming. Throughout the entire process, Doug and local co-counsel he recommended in Wyoming, helped our relative to get a relatively short probation with no incarceration. Working throughout the case until the very end, Doug was able to give us hope and the ability to move on with our life. Our family highly recommends Douglas T. Cohen at Peak Legal Services as the Best for the Best for any sex offense cases.

Douglas Cohen is an excellent and dedicated attorney. He is very knowledgeable about the laws and diligently sought to prove the innocence of my grandson, who was illegally arrested and incarcerated in Southwest Colorado on serious charges that he was innocent of. I believe this occurred because of his ethnicity. Mr. Cohen worked endlessly with his paralegal and investigator to obtain pertinent information and evidence to free my grandson. He stayed in contact with my grandson and our family at all times. In court, Attorney Cohen demonstrated a high level of skill and knowledge, showing respect and professionalism. He established a great rapport with the District Attorney and Judge which resulted favorably for our defense. Mr. Cohen fought hard to make sure my grandson received justice and freedom. He genuinely cared. A big heartfelt gratitude to the best attorney ever for a great outcome. He is "Ichiban" (#1 in Japanese). Attorney Cohen deserves superb recognition and rating for the quality of service he gives to his clients.

DHS in Denver, CO made a finding of child abuse against me, so I hired Doug Cohen of Peak Legal Services as my lawyer to represent me in the case. He is very honest and straight-forward. The case against me was weak, so DHS offered an immediate expungement. Mr. Cohen, being diligent to seek the best possible result for me, consulted me frequently and was extremely transparent and detailed in everything DHS was doing and saying as well as what his thoughts and guidance were. He said that we should seek to get a reversal in the case, should it not be dragged out for years, thus increasing costs and fees I would incur. We decided to seek a reversal in the ruling, and a date was set for a hearing two years from then. Sewing as how an immediate expungement was very favorable and much more cost effective, Mr. Cohen then advised that fighting for a reversal just did not make much sense from a financial perspective due to the hearing date being so far out. Also, the expungement is a great ruling that should be considered. In the end, I chose the immediate expungement and have no worries about the case any longer. I am very pleased with Mr. Cohen as my lawyer and would hire him again in an instant. He is hard-working, blunt, informative, knowledgeable, tactful, and has integrity to top it all off. I highly recommend Douglas Cohen for anyone seeking legal services. I could not say thank you enough. I would also add that the entire firm is excellent, highly professional, and timely. They are thorough and guide you through the legal process to achieve a favorable outcome.

First and foremost I would like to make it clear that Doug Cohen is a great lawyer not a magician. I say this as a total compliment. The legal representation he provides in and out of court you would think was magic. I’m a 25 year old black man who initially was stopped for speeding in southwest Colorado. I am from another state and was just a passenger. But I ended up detained and charged with multiple felonies. I was facing 30+ years in prison. I had no other felonies of any kind and thought my life was done. After hiring Doug, he challenged the entire police investigation. He proved that police falsely claimed that sucking candy package I had in my car was meth. He also argued that police improperly detained me and searched the car. He then got my bond reduced and got me out of jail. I ended up getting a misdemeanor with time served. I am now back home a free man. Douglas Cohen means business and can literally save your life. He was a straight shooter with me but always listened and treated my family like his own.

I hope this review captures the depth in which my gratitude for Attorney Douglas T. Cohen and his legal team reaches… For those who don’t like all the wordiness… all you need to know is that I hired Doug to represent my son. He is an honest and skilled attorney who will fight hard for you and your family. I will forever be grateful to Doug and his team for their diligent fight in ensuring that my son is a free man with a shot at establishing a great future and not a life spent behind bars. Here is the longer version, which I do encourage you to read if you are searching for a top notch criminal defense lawyer in Colorado… My 25-year old son was arrested in Southwest Colorado and was being held on 100K cash bond only. As a parent, I’m sure you can imagine the fear, panic, confusion, and stress receiving that phone call brought. As a woman who places her hope and trust in GOD, I prayed and asked for divine guidance in choosing the right representation. I was led to Doug. Keep in mind, I did my due diligence in researching and speaking with different criminal defense attorneys in Colorado. My family and I agreed that Doug was the man for this case. Even though Doug is based in Denver he travels all over Colorado to defend clients and went to Southwest Colorado for my son’s case, including visiting him in person in pre-trial custody. My son was facing multiple felony charges and looking at a mandatory prison sentence of 30-plus years. My son had no other felonies and had never been to prison. Doug was able to yield a very favorable outcome for my son without even having to go to trial. Doug got the bond reduced, got my son back home pending the outcome of the case. He also got all the felony charges dismissed. My son ended up with one misdemeanor charge, time served, and no more jail. If you are looking for great representation, I absolutely recommend you choose Doug. He is honest and will not sugar coat anything. He always took time to answer my questions. I never felt like he was inaccessible. In fact, almost every phone call, text, or email was answered immediately or within 24 hours.

I was facing a 20 year prison sentence and a lifetime sex offenders registry when Mr. Cohen took my case. Thanks to His diligent efforts and the high quality of His expert investigators I was cleared off all charges. I highly recommend Mr.Cohen’s legal team.

Can't say enough good things about Doug Cohen and Peak Legal Services. Doug was responsive, knowledgeable and compassionate. He had our best interests at heart and went the distance to help. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing help!

I could not recommend Attorney Cohen more. After discussing my case with him, he immediately recognized that the way the police handled my traffic stop was suspect. After spending time doing discovery for my case, Attorney Cohen felt that we would have a good chance at me maintaining my drivers license because of the mistakes made by the officers during my traffic stop. While DMV for DUI cases almost always end with loss of driving privileges, Attorney Cohen was able to successfully argue that I should maintain my driving privileges, and I was able to keep my driver's license without any disruption in my driving rights. Additionally, my two children were in the vehicle with me when I was pulled over for which I was charged with child endangerment. Mr. Cohen was able to get both of those charges dropped during negotiations with the District Attorney's office while also securing a one year deferred sentence for my offense. This means that, as long as I fulfill the requirements of my probation, the charge/conviction will be removed from my record. I could not have been happier with Mr. Cohen's communication, professionalism and willingness to answer questions and provide fantastic representation.

I hired Mr. Cohen and Peak Legal Services to represent me. I was facing multiple charges for an accident I was involved in during the summer of 2022, including a Class 4 felony for leaving the scene of an accident. I was extremely pleased with his support and guidance through out the process. We worked together to obtain all the supporting documentation required so he could work with the DA to get my charges lowered and avoid any jail time. The results were an 18 month deferred judgement on a reduced felony charge and a dismissal of the careless driving charge entirely. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing similar charges.

If you are searching for an amazing attorney, we highly recommend Douglas Cohen . Our son was facing serious felony charges in Larimer county with the possibility of life in prison. Douglas went above and beyond doing his due diligence, our son needed some evaluations and Douglas researched who would be the best fit for our sons needs because he has an intellectual developmental disability. His case ended with a misdemeanor and a deferred sentence.

Doug Cohen was extremely helpful in helping me with a citation I (Colorado resident) got in Wyoming. I was found to have a very small amount of marijuana in my car, and Doug helped me navigate the Wyoming court and got me a great deal that ended up being a small fine and some community service hours in exchange for a deferred and eventually dropped sentence. He also ensured so I didn’t have to commute from Denver to Wyoming to fulfill my community service hours or any drug testing. Doug is super communicative and, responds quickly to all texts and calls and explains everything really clearly, while also being a really nice person.

I was referred to Doug in July 2022 due to a DUI charge in Cheyenne, WY (Laramie County). Never having any previous charges in my life, and therefore not really knowing the best course of action, I pled guilty to the DUI in my initial hearing. I contacted multiple attorneys in my home town, none of whom returned my calls once they learned I pled guilty. So I was in a panic as I had no idea how to navigate the "system" I was dealing with (WY DOT, my mandated ETG tests, my court ordered Substance Abuse Evaluation, etc.). I was finally referred to Doug, and after the experience I had with the previous attorneys, I wasn't expecting much. I told him at the beginning of the call that I had pled guilty, and not only did he spend 30 minutes advising me on that initial call, he informed me that he didn't want to take any money because as I had pled guilty he wasn't sure what he could do! Not something I was expecting at all. However, his assistance didn't stop there. Over the course of the next three weeks, we traded emails (which he always promptly responded to) where he advised me on matters such as: 1) Since it was my first offense, he informed me of WY Statute 7-13-301 The Deferred Conviction First Offender Statute that allows the court to place the defendant on probation, and if/when those probationary requirements are met, the initial charge is dismissed. I made this request and it was granted! I wouldn't have even known to request this were it not for Doug. This likely saved my career as otherwise, I would have had a DUI conviction on my record for 10 years. 2) He suggested I write a letter to the presiding judge, as well as the DA, in advance of my sentencing hearing letting them know it was first offense and why I think I qualified for the Deferred Conviction, which I did. 3) he navigated me through dealing with the Wyoming Dept of Transportation to make the request for a Probationary License, which was granted. This also helped me avoid damage to my career as it allows me to continue to drive to and from work every day. 4) He helped me prepare for my SAT/ASI Evaluation. As a result, I the recommendation I received was for the minimum 8 hour DUI class. During our email correspondence, I again offered to pay a retainer to secure his help, but again, as he felt there wasn't much he could do due to my guilty plea, he wouldn't take it. I can't tell you how impressive this still is to me, especially after my initial attempt to secure counsel. Not only does Doug and his firm come highly regarded by others in he legal profession (the attorney who referred me to Doug is tops in his field in Colorado), I can attest, based on my experience, that he is an honest, ethical person who clearly wants to help.

After my DUI, I researched local attorneys who specialized in these types of cases. My BAC was very high, so I knew that I needed to ensure I was well represented through the process. I connected with Mr. Cohen and was extremely pleased with his support and guidance through out the process. He helped set me up on successful plan to keep my license, avoid a DUI conviction, and ensure no jail time was imposed. And no matter what my concerns or questions were, he was always kind, respectful and thorough in explaining the process. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing similar charges.

Cohen law office helped me in a case that lead to a deferred sentence by keeping me informed about what was happening,taking on all legal matters,keeping me behind the scrutiny of the court systemworking hard being prepared and just a great work ethic and being knowledgeable about the case. I would recommend Doug Cohen law office to friends and family.

We retained Douglas to represent us on a matter which had the protentional to drastically impact our entire family. From the first phone conversation, Douglas was professional, patient, and knowledgeable. During the process he kept us informed, answered all our questions, and was proactive in his approach. I strongly recommend Douglas for any issues within his areas of expertise.

I was facing a DUI conviction in Weld County, CO. As someone who had never even been arrested in their life, this was extremely stressful, even more so given the permanence of alcohol convictions in Colorado, and the fact that I rely on driving for my employment. Losing my DL would've turned my life upside down, and this is for a first offense with no injury or accident. CO does not mess around with this sort of charge, and if I had tried to go it alone I would've faced the full force of the court and DMV. Doug put together a strategy right away, got me started on all the mitigation while we awaited the court and DMV date. He reviewed all the facts (which admittedly did not look good for me, I did about everything wrong on the stop) and was very frank about my chances. This is something I really came to appreciate about his approach: he will give it to you straight and tell you exactly what you need to do to get the best possible outcome. He was able to get the blood test result tossed out due to the police misinforming me of the law, and we managed to not only win the DMV hearing, but got the charge reduced to a non-alcohol offense. This combined with the mitigation he had me do, resulted in me being able to keep my license (and my job!), and reduce my probation requirements. This is excellent result, given the facts of the case. I would say he worked a miracle, but really it was just an experienced and skilled attorney who knew what he was doing.

I got in some trouble in WY for an allegation of sex assault of a minor for which there was a 5-year delay in the reporting of the case where the DA was extremely difficult to work with and was very intent on getting the maximum penalty which included a lengthy prison term. Doug did an excellent job of navigating all of the issues that came up. He went as far as to hire an attorney that was from the local jurisdiction in order to have a better idea of how the case would be handled since I live in Colorado and had to travel back and forth for all proceedings. Doug was very involved throughout the entire process and was always available if I had any questions. In the end, he was able to resolve the case by getting me probation of a reasonable length with no time in jail and was successful in getting a very unreasonable request for restitution denied even after the rest of the case had been completed. He was very professional and if you ever have any type of sex case, I would highly recommend that you give Doug a call because he will do whatever it takes to ensure the best possible outcome and will always be honest with you as far as where your case is headed and what he thinks the next step should be.

I did found Douglas Cohen online based on past top reviews. He helped me with a child abuse charge in Denver. I could have faced jail and probation and CPS/Human Services issues but He helped me through all of it and I ended up with a plea where my case will be dismissed within a year. Douglas Cohen was available every time and he can be reached out by text messages, e-mails, and phone calls.

My son was charged with a crime of a sexual nature and needed expertise in this area of criminal defense. From the very first interview and review of the facts surrounding this case, Doug was depth in his discussion and with my son and demonstrated his knowledge of the law and client emotional experience. Doug called on expertise he knew in the juridiction the charges were filed; another trait that demonstrated his experience with how relationships in the judicial system can make a huge difference in the outcome of a case. Knowing the prosecutor, the judge and local environment enabled Doug (through the local expert) to work the law in a favorible manner for a favorible outcome. Case law is typically considered in matters brought before a judge and/or jury but Mr Cohen demonstrated knowledge and expertise of the law and subject matter far beyond what is taught in law school. I highly recommend Doug Cohen and Peak Legal services to anyone that is looking for representation and solid defense in criminal cases!

I called around all morning looking for answers to a child custody case that I was in dire need of immediate answers. Of the 25 places I called no one would answer any of my questions without an appointment and or fee, not to mention the appointments were all days to weeks later. I called Todd and within 15 minutes of speaking with him on the phone he was able to answer all of my questions and put my very stressed mind and heart at ease. Todd will be my attorney moving forward with any and all family matters. I highly recommend him!

During one of the toughest times in my life Doug fought tirelessly for my daughter to stay in Colorado with me. He is no games type of lawyer who is firm and persistent to get the job done. Throughout the several months I encountered other issues such a protection order. Doug was able to use facts to get it dismissed. Even though he has the skills of a determined lawyer he also showed my family and I empathy and compassion. He listened to what I had to say and what I wanted and made it happen. In court he used all the evidence provided that showed the courts I was a good father or a threat to the mother without putting anyone else down. My daughter is home with me where she belongs. I am happy I was able to find Doug and his team in such a traumatic time and he is was willing to take on my case and all of it's complexity. Money well spent! Hopefully I will never be in this situation again, but if I was I would definitely call Doug for all my legal needs!

My husband was involved in a situation where he was cut off at the gas station. He verbally yelled at the man. The man called the police and accused my husband of hitting him. The ambulance was also called. He was not transported (there was nothing wrong with him). The officers did issue a citation to my husband for assault. That made it necessary for us to seek legal counsel. Our experience with Doug Cohen was excellent! He listened to us, gave us the facts, and proceeded with obtaining the necessary evidence to have the case dropped. We were well informed each step of the way until the best possible result was obtained. I would strongly recommend Doug Cohen to anyone who was in need of legal services.

While working with Douglas I was very lucky to get to know such an amazing down to earth lawyer who truly cares about helping others and not just a paycheck. He help me with a sexual assault case in which I was facing prison time and got it reduced to a deferred sentence. For that I am very thankful.

Mr. Douglas Cohen is an excellent Attorney and frankly "a good guy". He was persistent in making sure the out come of my case was fair. He truly cared and understood the aftermath of my case could of had serious consequences to my Professional career. Fortunately, my case had the best end-result and I am very appreciative. Douglas"s team was communicative and resposive as well. Thank you so much Doug !!!!! Andres Mejia.

Doug and his team were fantastic, and did a very good job handling my case. Doug not only helped me get through the whole process, but took the extra steps to make sure that outcome was something I was comfortable with. I was facing up to life in jail, and life supervision. I ended up with very little jail, and a small portion of supervision with a deferred sentence. I would recommend hiring Doug for anybody that is dealing with sex crimes.

I recently needed legal representation and after researching attorneys in the Denver area decided on going with Doug Cohen. After initial consultation we retained his services and were extremely happy with his work ethic and patience in explaining a complex legal matter. I am grateful for his thoroughness and attention to the fact that we were not familiar with how the legal system would handle my case. He often went out of his way to make sure that myself and my family were aware of the options that would affect my case and even had me start taking steps to make my case even stronger as we went along. I would recommend Doug if you have a legal problem and need a ggo attorney in the Denver area (and he also serves Wyoming).

In January 2021 my husband and I hired Doug Cohen of Peak Legal Services to be our attorney in a very serious criminal case that my husband had been arrested for. We had never had any dealings with the legal system before so we were lost and did not know where to start. Mr. Cohen met with us the very day that we called and spent adequate time getting to know us and the case. Right away he filed paperwork with the local courts and started getting all of the information that he needed. One thing that Mr. Cohen told us up front was that the court system and proceedings would take a long time. And they did! But Mr. Cohen was always there to reassure us that this was normal and that we would prevail. He came up with a lot of ideas that ultimately helped my husbands case. Mr. Cohen spent many hours speaking with the local DA to come up with a plea bargain. He also traveled 3+ hours to be at the sentencing and spoke at great length in my husbands defense. What could have been a lengthy prison sentence ended up being a deferred sentence and probation. We will forever be grateful to Mr. Cohen for helping us in our hour of need. Please call Peak Legal Services if you are in need of a professional and caring attorney. We are so glad that we did!

I was arrested for a DUI. This was a first time DUI, but due to my BAC I was at risk of jail time and loss of license. Mr. Cohen was clear, kind and available every step of this long process. His dedication and deep knowledge of the law allowed me to not only reduce my sentence, but allowed me to keep my license and not face jail. Mr. Cohen is THE BEST in his field.

I retained Mr Cohen when I was falsely accused of a crime by my ex-spouse. It was further complicated when the police really didn't want to deal with the matter but turned it over to a county agency for further investigation and handling. Throughout the process, Mr. Cohen was great at guiding me and formulating logical next steps. At the same time as this was going on, I was also going through a divorce and Mr. Cohen consulted with my divorce attorney so as to not do anything that might harm either process. I found Mr. Cohen very easy to talk to and genuinely concerned about my predicament. He was finally able to get the case closed without any further actions from the agency or law enforcement. Mr. Cohen is EXTREMELY knowledgable about processes within the police and judicial system and uses his connections to help in plotting out a strategy. In working with various groups which consulted with me, they all had great things to say about Mr. Cohen and his ethics are of the highest standards. I would not hesitate to retain Mr. Cohen should I need him again!

I faced a DUI case this past October, and I am pleased to say the case is now officially over and in the past, all thanks to Attorney Cohen. Attorney Cohen has done wonders for my family and I. I had a tough case and I was really worried about the outcome of my case, and not only did Attorney Cohen exceed my expectations, but he did it with class too. Him and his staff did amazing and I could not be more pleased with him as an attorney.

Doug Cohen is the bomb dot com! I was charged with a DUI in the summer of 2020. It was my 2nd DUI with a pretty serious accident involved. Doug put together a plan of action in order to mitigate the damage that resulted from my reckless behavior and we were able to plea down my 2nd DUI to a 1st DUI with absolutely zero jail time. Doug is very knowledgeable and knows exactly what he is doing. In addition to being a great lawyer, he is very personable and easy to work with. It was a blessing to have a straight shooter, like Doug, by my side to help me navigate the ins and outs of the Denver court system and to provide guidance and reassurance. If you ever find yourself on the wrong side of the law, do yourself a favor and give Doug Cohen a call!

Our family is so grateful to Mr. Cohen and Peak Legal Services. We have great respect for Mr. Cohen's direct honesty and tactful way he treated our family. Our family truly appreciates all of Mr. Cohen's valuable time and dedication that he gave in our case. He provided superior service at a rapid pace. Whenever contacted he responded within a short period of time, never left us waiting for a call back. Mr. Cohen reviewed and researched our situation, discovered an error within the charges resulting in charges being dropped. We highly recommend Mr. Cohen and Peak Legal Services to anyone needing great and caring attorney's. We were so Blessed to have Mr. Cohen representing our situation.

I reached out to Mr. Cohen from New York to help a relative with a serious legal matter in Colorado. I found his law firm on the internet and was extremely fortunate he was a very competent lawyer. Mr. Cohen and his staff communicated with the client and me on a regular basis keeping us informed of what was going on and our options. He was also helpful in referring us to a New York lawyer to resolve the case in a favorable way avoiding the potential risks of going to trail. His staff was also compassionate during this stressful process.

I called Doug Cohen when Douglas County DHS opened a D&N and took my children out of a safe and loving home. Doug aggressively advocated for me and my children. He was blunt and direct in making sure that I took the right steps throughout the case. DHS returned custody and Doug swiftly handled an appeal with the state to get everything removed from my record, without ever having to go to trial. Doug continued to represent me in my divorce case, which we had to transfer from another state to CO, which could have been a nightmare, but Doug made it be a smooth and easy process for me. By the end of the divorce, not only did I have majority parenting time and full decision making, but I was approved to move out of Colorado with my children. My ex-spouse was ordered to pay a significant amount of monthly child support, and a six figure judgment was entered against them for the property they previously liquidated without my consent. So to recap: Doug entered my case when I had ZERO CUSTODY of my children and a brand new CPS case. He closed my divorce case as I moved OUT OF COLORADO with my children, with FULL CUSTODY, a six figure judgment against my ex-spouse, and a large monthly child support order. Most importantly, Doug helped end a four year battle, with my children and I coming out the other side in one piece. Doug was the 4th attorney I hired in 1.5 years, and the only attorney for the job! On occasion, Todd represented me in court to stand in for Doug. Todd was prepared, highly experienced, and had a calm demeanor, but don't let that fool you - he was assertive in court! Doug's paralegal Bonnie is meticulous, detail oriented, prompt, professional, and compassionate. She is an excellent communicator and continuously ensured that Doug and I were on the same page, and that we never missed a deadline - she is invaluable to this office! Doug can be a zealous warrior for your case when needed, but also knows when to dial back and tread lightly. In court, Doug was always sharp, knowing the facts of my case, which helped him to frequently reveal other parties dishonesty and ineffectiveness. Doug was open minded to new ideas whenever we needed to discuss case strategy, but would speak up and be a true leader on my case when needed for a successful outcome. Doug was innovative, attentive, passionate, and on the ball throughout my case. I plan to continue to utilize Doug for any future legal needs, and I will continue to recommend him to friends, family, and colleagues. I'm confident that he was the right choice for my case, and will be the right choice for your case too!

Doug is an amazing lawyer. I was falsely accused of sexual assault and he was able to get the case dropped through his hard work and great knowledge of the legal system. It was the worst and most terrifying thing I had ever gone through but Doug's professionalism and obvious competency gave me a lot of solace through it all. He is very personable and easy to talk to which was extremely helpful in that situation. I highly recommend Doug to anyone going through something like this.

I contacted Todd to represent me in a divorce from my wife where we have two young children. This was my first time filing for divorce and I had many questions. Todd took a very professional non judgmental approach and helped me through each step of the process. As a father it helped knowing Todd had vast experience in representing my rights with my children.

Doug was able to handle my case from beginning to end. He kept my family at ease and was able to answer all my questions. I highly recommend him. He is knowledgeable and reliable.

If you ever find yourself in the scenario of being contacted by law enforcement and needing to defend yourself against alleged sex crimes, do yourself an enormous favor and call Doug Cohen at Peak Legal. The sooner you call, the better, but with the level of competence I saw, I would never count Doug out. From the moment he and I first spoke, it was clear that Doug was the right guy to represent me in the face of these outrageous allegations. He took adequate time to understand the allegations and the status of the investigation; and he listened to my recounting of the facts. He gave thoughtful advice, was very thorough in working out how to move through to our intended objective, and was a welcome steady hand in what felt like an unpredictable situation. At the end of the day, my case resolved successfully. Doug brings years of experience prosecuting sex crimes and his time in the seat shows when you need such competence the most. The highest recommendations to Doug and his team.

Todd was very knowledgeable in divorce law and in all that was needed in my case. Immediately, I felt heard by him as he listened to my needs, and felt reassured by his calm demeanor. He would remind me what was important and what was worth pursuing, and what was not worth the time to argue about. He and his assistant were always on top of things, always informing me of the next steps, and explaining with patience what to do. I never felt rushed, and never felt that it was only about billing his time. He was very fair in his fees.

Peak Legal Services, and Doug Cohen in particular, offer outstanding legal services. Doug and his team assisted me with a serious speeding ticket that occurred during a time of stress and it could not have gone better. His approach to the matter was characterized by exceptional attention to detail, responsive and open communication, and personal attention. Doug calmly and clearly explained my options and identified ways to mitigate the consequences. His expertise and understanding of the legal system helped resolve this matter quickly and without complication. In the end, the penalty was drastically reduced to a minor traffic violation-an outcome that was even better than anticipated. Highly recommended.

When threats from a sex assault case dating back to the 90’s began to emerge and threatened to ruin my life and life of my family, we scoured the internet looking for a highly competent, highly rated attorney, with a stellar track record. We chose Doug Cohen and never looked back. Doug always made himself available to answer every question that came our way during this process. I initially faced a potentially lengthy prison and jail sentence and life-long sex offender registration but thanks to Doug’s fierce, and just, advocacy, legal expertise, and skilled negotiation with the DA, I served less than a month in jail and my charges will eventually be dropped to a misdemeanor without being maimed a lifetime sex offender. In addition to being an exceptional attorney, Doug went above and beyond and even helped me secure work after I had no choice but to resign from my previous position. So yes, he’s not only a first-rate attorney, but he cares about his clients. If you are looking for highly competent and committed attorney, I highly encourage you to retain Mr. Cohen.

I contacted many different lawyers in the Denver area and outside counties as my case was in Grand. Doug was the best choice and I'm very happy that I hired him as my attorney. He is very responsive to calls, texts, emails; even on weekends. From our first meeting (on a Sunday) he answered all of my questions and laid out a no BS plan to get my charges reduced. There was a lot of hours and prep work that I needed to do, but all of it 100% worth it. Doug negotiated with the DA behind the scenes and set me up for success when heading to court. The day of the summons, Doug was very professional and prepared. He handed over summary packet information to the judge and DA's. He eloquently summed up our position and hit all of the right notes in the court room. In the end he got my charges reduced from DUI + reckless driving + 2 counts of child endangerment to just a DWAI. I couldn't be happier with the outcome and owe it all to Doug and Peak Legal!

I can highly recommend Doug Cohen at Peak Legal Services. My son is a 3 times deployed combat veteran with PTSD and had an unfortunate triggering situation occur. He worked very hard for us and gave us an outcome much, much better than we expected. He was genuinely interested in our case and did a lot of research regarding our sons history. We were very happy with all he did for us. He was available to speak to us whenever we needed and was good about setting aside as much time as we needed to answer all of our questions. He is direct and very professional which is exactly what we needed. He is not a "hand holder" type, (which we didn't want) but he's also quite friendly and approachable. He was very realistic about our situation to us. It was obvious that he is very knowledgeable and experienced in working within the court system and with prosecutors. Everyone seemed to know and respect him. We hope to never require this service again, but wouldn't even consider another attorney. Thanks so much Doug, from the entire family.

I came to Doug after receiving my third DUI. While on pretrial for that dui I received a driving under restraint and a 4th dui. Doug not only stood by me but helped me to find a rehab facility to start my recovery. He got me out of the felony that comes with the forth and fought to get me into the MOP program which is a treatment program instead of hard jail time. Doug did a fantastic job with on the legal side and has helped me personally with my addiction problems.

Douglas Cohen helped me with my divorce that was very complicated when my original lawyer had made me lose all hope of a fair outcome. Mr Cohen did a great job easing my mind and was great at keeping me informed with my case. I never had to reach out to him, he always reached out to me first. That is rare in a lawyer in my experience.

My son hit rock botton last summer and he received a second and third DUI and was facing a mandatory jail sentence. Doug was able to get all of my son's convictions combined for sentencing in Douglas County even though they had occurred in 3 separate counties. Doug was not only able to get my son into a multi offender program where hs is receiving the help that he needs from a therapy program but Doug was also able to get him into a work release program while he was incarcerated for 60 days. Having my son receive the help that he needs rather than just sit in a jail cell while he serves his time has helped my son turn the corner and get his life back under control. For that I can never thank Doug and staff enough for the incredible job that they did for my son. Thanks again

Doug provided great representation for my son. Due to Doug’s hard work, instead of five years in jail for his DUI’s, my son received a 60 day sentence combined with placement in a program to help him overcome his drinking problem. Doug traveled throughout the state of Colorado to ensure the best possible outcome for my son. He stood by him through the worst, and I am truly thankful for the job he did for us. I would recommend him to anyone needing a top- notch DUI lawyer.

Doug was a very good lawyer and we got our case settled on the first court date. We even meet with him on a Saturday at our convenience and we would recommend him to all our family and friends if they should ever need a lawyer in the further.

Mr Cohen was extremely successful in sealing crimal convictions, including two felonies. One of those felonies was a long shot, but he performed a miracle ... request granted. Best words I ever heard.

I hired Doug to represent me in allegations of third degree assault. I found him online and chose him based on all the great reviews he has received. He helped get my charge deferred on it's way to being dismissed. Doug is responsive and has always answered my calls and texts quickly. From my experience with him he has always acted in a professional manner.

Very pleased with the representation I received from Douglas Cohen. I highly recommend this professional, thorough organization. All charges were dismissed. Couldn't be happier with the results!

I got a DUI in May 2018 and was referred to Doug by a physician friend who spoke very highly of him. From the beginning Doug was very transparent and forthcoming, explaining all the possibilities that could come from my case. He worked tirelessly finding inconsistencies that we could use to argue for a lesser charge. I was always able to text Doug never waiting more than a few minutes for a response. I found Doug to be very kind, compassionate, caring and extremely knowledgeable about the law. I never once worried about my case or the outcome once I hired Doug. I can't recommend Doug enough to anyone looking for a very competent attorney. If I'm ever unfortunate enough to find myself needing an attorney again Doug will be the only one I call.

Douglas Cohen came highly recommended to us. We hired Doug to represent my daughter through a serious and complicated DUI charge. Not only did he treat her with respect and dignity, but through his hard work, expertise and personal attention the results he was able to produce for her were outstanding. Doug’s extensive knowledge of the law and his guidance on actions needed from his client for proactive restitution following a DUI charge, allowed for a strong working relationship. The respect for Doug conveyed by the prosecutor and the judge further demonstrated his professionalism. In the end, the results Douglas Cohen was able to achieve on my daughter’s behalf were far better outcomes than I ever thought possible. I highly, highly recommend hiring Douglas Cohen if you are in need of a successful, respected and empathetic defense attorney. Best decision we ever made.

I was falsely charged with a serious sex offense. It was a he-said/she-said situation. I made the mistake of talking to the police without a lawyer thinking they wanted to get to the truth of the matter. Instead, they had already made up their mind that I was guilty and only wanted to make the “facts” fit their story. After being arrested, I hired a lawyer that had been recommended to me, but after six months he just wanted me to accept a terrible plea deal, saying that was the best I could expect. I fired that lawyer and hired Doug. Doug was very proactive. It was obvious that he knew what he was doing and that he was going to do everything he could to aid my defense. He even came up with a creative way to try and get some evidence admitted (that would have helped my defense), that the courts had deemed inadmissible on a technicality. Doug made sure I was ready to go to trial with the best defense possible. In the end, I accepted a much more favorable plea deal than the one my previous lawyer had recommended I take.

Mr Cohen was very professional and very honest. He was exceptional in knowing the law and how he could defend us. The outcome of our case was in our favor and he made sure he explained the steps so that we understood everything fully as we went along the legal journey. I highly recommend Doug Cohen.
