WHEN YOUR LIFE OR PROPERTY IS AT RISK YO NEED THE BEST DEFENSE
Colorado Criminal Defense Lawyer Venkatesh "Vee" Iyer
(Former Successful Prosecutor and CPA)

At a very young age I had very strong opinions and would defend the weaker persons in my society. I saw how my father was treated by lawyers. I did not like what I saw.

At that time I made a solemn promise that I would be candid and forthright with my clients when I practice law. I have and continue to keep that promise. Unlike other lawyers, I practice law the old fashioned way - by treating each and every client just as I would treat my own loved ones - love, kindness, and candidness. I earn your trust and business - one client at a time. Over the past several years I have built a successful law practice.

As a skilled Colorado Criminal Defense Lawyer, I am committed to providing each client with the best possible legal representation. I have established an impressive record representing clients in Denver, surrounding communities, Colorado Springs, and throughout the state.
Practice Areas:
Criminal Defense (State & Federal Courts)
Wills and Probate • Estate Planning
Small Business • Contracts & Negotiation • Formation
Taxes • Preparation (Individual & Business) • Tax Audit Representation • Tax Court Litigation

As a first generation immigrant and a naturalized U.S. Citizen, I fully understand the peculiar difficulties, concerns and anxieties of immigrants (legal or illegal). I do not judge you based on your immigration status; but do realize that you have different concerns and needs than U.S. citizens. I look into these concerns with great empathy and seek to obtain the best possible resolution of your case after considering any immigration impact the criminal charges or conviction may have on your immigration status. I understand that your immigration status is very important to you and have grave concerns of the possibility of being deported or your immigration status being canceled. In order to avoid unintentional or accidental possible negative immigration consequences to our clients, the Iyer Law Office adopts a strict policy to inquire into our client’s immigration status. In this way, we can help our client avoid certain, sometimes irreversible, negative immigration consequences including deportation or denial of U.S. Citizenship.
No case or matter is too small for my Firm. Call me immediately if you have been arrested or are under investigation for any of the following criminal offenses:
• Criminal Law (Colorado State and Federal)
• All Misdemeanors and Felonies
• All Traffic cases
• Crimes Against the Person
• Crimes Against Property
• Crimes Involving Fraud
• Juvenile Crimes
• Drug Crimes
My professional philosophy and credo has always been that the most important and only factor that really matters, in EVERY CASE, is the CLIENT'S BEST INTEREST. As a former Colorado State Deputy District Attorney, I understand and work with the prosecution (but always protecting your rights and interests) to secure the best possible resolution to your case. I will provide you with my best legal advice and judgment; but you are in ultimate control of your case. You decide whether to take the plea offer or to challenge the accusations at trial. Whichever course you choose, I provide knowledgeable, vigorous defense, working VERY HARD, at all times, to VINDICATE YOU OF ALL CHARGES.
Prior to establishing my own law office in January 2005, I was a Deputy District Attorney in Colorado for about three years. As a prosecutor, I successfully prosecuted thousands in County and District Courts. I have conducted 20 to 25 jury trials and 10 to 15 Bench (Judge) trials and hundreds of pre-trial motions hearings. Therefore, I have ACTUAL TRIAL EXPERIENCE. I understand how the criminal justice system works. As a skilled Denver Criminal Lawyer, I use this special knowledge and experience to walk and guide you through the labyrinth of the Criminal Justice System in a user-friendly, courteous and respectful manner.
My office understands that, like the vast majority of honest and hardworking Americans, you may not have all of the legal fees upfront. Therefore, we do not require you to pay upfront all of the legal costs. Rather, we work with you to tailor your investment in your defense to your ability to pay. In addition, we have very reasonable tiered fees. You only pay for the tier of service you actually use. Barring exceptional circumstances, there is no hourly rate, but rather a flat fee for each tier of service. You know the expected legal fees at the beginning of hiring us to represent you. Now that is a relief, and rarely is there a surprise.
Unlike some criminal defense attorneys, my Firm will always assist you during all stages of the criminal justice system including Bail Bonding, Bail Reduction, and the pre-arrest process. I will always move the Court to either release you on a PERSONAL RECOGNIZANCE BOND (you are out of jail on your signature) or to reduce any bond to an affordable and reasonable amount. Your freedom is always my FIRST PRIORITY. I will always work very hard and smart to protect your rights, promote your interests and to achieve the best possible outcome and resolution in a cost-effective and efficient manner.
If you have been accused of a crime, the decisions you make now can literally affect the rest of your life. The strength of your defense should be assessed by an attorney who fully understands the unique facts of your case and who knows how the law applies to your circumstances. Only then can you make the critical decisions that will protect your future. As a skilled Colorado Criminal Defense Attorney, I have extensive experience helping people make these important decisions.
My Firm also handles Juvenile Law cases, including Dependency & Neglect. In addition, my firm also provides legal representation and services in commercial (business) transactions, estates, wills, trusts, probate administration, and taxes.
The Iyer Law Office schedules appointments that are convenient to you because we care. You, the client, ALWAYS COME FIRST. For your convenience, we schedule appointments even on weekends and holidays, and we provide our clients with a cell phone number to reach us 24/7. We are ready to serve you whenever you are in need. It is our business and mission to serve your needs.
