The Western Slope of Colorado

The Western Slope of Colorado comprises a vast area of more than 44,000 square miles, 20 counties and 8 different judicial districts.  From the high mountains of the Colorado Rockies to the red rock desert of the Colorado National Monument, from the oil fields of the northwest to the four corners region, all of this area is within the Western Slope.

Mr. Gallagher has spent almost 20 years getting to know the judges, prosecutors, and people of the Western Slope.  This is extremely important to your case and how it should be handled.  The Western Slope contains one of the most liberal jurisdictions in Colorado (Aspen) and some of the more conservative (Grand Junction and Meeker).  The judges, prosecutors and potential jurors in these disparate areas will look at and treat your case and charges differently.  You need an attorney who knows how your particular case will be dealt with depending on which court it is assigned to and who your prosecutor is.  Mr. Gallagher has that knowledge and experience.  You cannot afford to hire a lawyer who doesn't.

Mr. Gallagher practices in the following Courts on the Western Slope:

The Fifth Judicial District:    Eagle, Leadville, Breckenridge, Georgetown, El Jebel
The Sixth Judicial District:    Durango, Pagosa Springs, Silverton
The Seventh Judicial District:    Delta, Montrose, Nucla, Gunnison, Ouray, Telluride
The Ninth Judicial District:    Aspen, Glenwood Springs, Rifle, Meeker, Rangely
The Fourteenth Judicial District:    Craig, Steamboat Springs, Hot Sulphur Springs
