Based in Fort Collins, the Colorado Lawyer Team law firm is deftly equipped to handle a wide range of legal matters efficaciously. We aim to provide clients with the relief they require to gain peace of mind and a semblance of normalcy in their lives. Our talented legal team primarily focuses on criminal defense issues such as assault, domestic violence, arson, DUI/DWAI, traffic offenses, gun crimes and juvenile offenses, as well as family law matters, including divorce, child custody and support, modification of parenting time, paternity and mediation. Additionally, we also handle contentious employment law issues and civil litigation.

We understand the uncertainty our clients face when they explain their situation to us. When it comes to criminal allegations or tearful events that changes the dynamics of a family, we know the emotional and financial strain can become a burden. Our CEO, Justie Nicol, is committed to keeping our clients comfortable from the beginning to the end of their case and beyond.

Ms. Nicol is a premier attorney who continually progresses the legal community of Colorado to better serve clients of the future. Since receiving her Juris Doctor from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, she has gained immense exposure in both public and private practice. She served as a deputy district attorney for the 18th Judicial District for nearly four years, where she tackled everything from animal cruelty and juvenile cases to domestic violence and high-profile media cases.

From day one of founding the Colorado Lawyer Team, she has spearheaded us to magnanimous heights and has garnered the adulation of her peers and her clients, as is evident with her Avvo rating of “Superb.”

We are not afraid to fight tooth and nail to get you out of your legal troubles. We understand the uncertainty of placing your issues in hands that aren’t your own, which is why we offer free initial consultations – so you can get to know us and what we can do for you. We serve Coloradans from additional offices in Greenwood Village and Loveland, and if you are unable to make it in-person, we provide virtual consultations as well. We happily accept credit cards as payment for our services.
