Colorado Legal Defense Group - Colorado Springs, CO

The Power of a Team Defense

Colorado Legal Defense Group is a powerhouse criminal defense firm located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. As part of the renowned Shouse Law Group, this local office brings a level of resources and expertise that is rare in the region. The firm is built on a ”team approach” model, where cases are not just handled by a single lawyer but are often round-tabled by a group of experienced attorneys, including former prosecutors and police officers. This collaborative strategy allows them to attack the prosecution's case from every angle, anticipating moves before they happen and identifying weaknesses that others might miss.

Led by Managing Partner Michael Becker, the Colorado Springs team is known for its aggressive proactive investigation. Unlike firms that wait for police reports, Colorado Legal Defense Group employs an in-house investigator to immediately gather evidence, interview witnesses, and secure surveillance footage. This speed is critical in criminal cases, often leading to charges being dropped before they are even filed. The firm handles everything from first-time DUI offenses to serious felonies, always with the goal of keeping their clients out of jail and keeping their records clean.
