I do not recommend Jim Farrenholtz to anyone!!! This man needs to retire. He is an extremely poor…read morecommunicator and cannot seem to respond to a text email or phone call. He seems to have way too much on his plate to give someone the true representation that they deserve. Didn't have any problems picking up the phone when he knew he was going to make some money though. Please look for someone else for legal advice.

James FAHRENHOLTZ, is a SHYSTER!!! He represented me disgracefully thirty -two years ago[1990], in…read moreFederal District Court in Denver. He was lead counsel and Terrence O'Connor, ESQ in Vail, Colorado was co-counsel. FAHRENHOLTZ, had never tried a Federal case before so as it's called in the legal profession they both were in uncharted waters as they literally had never stepped in a Federal Courtroom before and I am trusting them with my LIFE!!! I paid them $ 45,000.00 and they got me convicted and I was sentenced to 21 months incarceration. My Appellate attorney was a Federal Public Defender Jill Wichlens, was much better than these men!! I myself a jailhouse lawyer found a case that was analogous with one of my two counts and gave it to her and the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed it for duplicity. She plugged me for that! Thanks Jill!! FAHRENHOLTZ, allowed the Court to make so many egregious errors and didn't win any argument!! Lastly, I would never recommend James FAHRENHOLTZ or Terrence O'Connor!!! James, was bragging to me about his two personal injury cases he won and his house worth 1.4 million!!

I want to thank Taggart Howard of Causey & Howard for his help and representation of our daughter…read more As a result of a traffic stop and confusion over an antibiotic she was taking she was charged with DUI and other related charges. While we knew that the blood test would come back negative it was an extremely uncertain and emotional time. Taggart worked on her case and helped us to provide an honest and detailed response to the charges. He did an excellent job of navigating the legal system and working with the authorities to generate a very fair and favorable outcome. From my first call to him late on a Saturday night to the final agreement we were kept informed and felt confident in his ability to help resolve this case. I would recommend Taggart Howard to anyone seeking legal help.

Jim Little was the opposing party's attorney on my case. We were married for 2 years, had one child…read moreand no assets to divide. Jim Little had a mental breakdown in 2017, was in and out of mental hospitals and still allowed to practice law. He cost me over $30, 000, as a single mother. I made a complaint to the Supreme Court Office of Attorney Regulation, and in the best interests of the public, Mr. Jim Little was required to complete, 'three years ethics school, mental health treatment monitoring, and the appointment of a mentor.' If I could include an attachment I would add this letter. He is a ticking time-bomb. This should be public knowledge.

I'm 10 years into a custody battle; I've been through every situation in the Courts, CFI, Investigations, Support Orders, etc - This woman is the best Attorney I have ever spoken to. If you are anywhere in the Eagle/Vail area, go sit with her, it will be the best move you ever made. Most of all, she is a woman after my own heart which is: treat people more than fairly, undercharge them relative to everybody else yet give them superior service and knowledge, be smarter than most but never act like it - and most of all live your life with a clear conscious because you strive to serve others, be a great parent, and live peacefully.
