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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
