Larry started his law career in 1983 as a deputy district attorney in the Boulder County (Colorado) District Attorney's Office. Larry's career as a deputy prosecutor included extensive work in the area of civil confiscation/forfeiture and assault, theft, robbery, burglary and other serious felony matters.

In 1990 Larry left the Boulder County District Attorney's Office to begin his own private law practice. Cases handled by Larry since 1990 have reflected on his desire to maintain a courtroom type practice focusing on the goal of obtaining civil and criminal justice.

Larry also serves as the Associate Municipal Judge for the City of Louisville, Colorado.

  The firm is proud of its association with Bob Simpson, a seasoned former elected District Attorney from Tioga County, New York with over 29 years of prosecution experience, a 90% conviction rate, and homicide trial experience.

In 1995 Bob successfully prosecuted Waneta Hoyt for the murder of her five infant children who were originally believed to have died from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), a prosecution, which was later memorialized in a book, titled The Death of Innocents. Bob has enjoyed his transition to both the Colorado lifestyle and the worthy and exciting effort involved in seeking justice from the criminal and civil justice systems.

  Trevor J. Willard, known to friends, family and our clients as "TJ" is a new addition to the staff at the firm.  TJ is a June, 2002, graduate of the University of Denver, College of Law, with a background in employment law and civil litigation.  TJ was admitted to the Colorado bar in 2002 and will practice in the areas of criminal defense, personal injury, litigation and employment law.
