At the Law Office of Lauryn Tully, we defend youth and adults charged with crimes across Colorado. Whether we are standing beside a teenager in juvenile court or an adult facing serious charges, our goal is the same: protect our client's rights, their future, and their dignity.
That commitment takes ongoing work. Earlier this week, our team spent two days at a statewide training In Breckenridge, Colorado that was dedicated to representing children and youth, building on skills we use every day. It was a good reminder of one simple idea we bring to every case: our clients are people first, not case numbers.
When families meet the system
A criminal charge rarely affects just one person. When a young person is charged, parents and caregivers are pulled in too, sometimes alongside guardians ad litem (GALs), caseworkers, probation officers, or school officials.
That can mean new faces, unfamiliar terms, and decisions that feel out of your hands. We help families understand who is involved, what each person's role is, and what to expect next, so you can make informed decisions instead of guessing.
How we represent every client
Whether our client is 14 or 44, we build every defense on the same foundation:
- Listening first. Every client has their own story and goals. Good defense starts by hearing them out, in plain language.
- Seeing the whole person. School, work, family, mental health, and community all shape a case. We look beyond the charge.
- Clear communication. Court is stressful. We keep clients and families informed about what is happening and what comes next.
- Protecting your future. We fight to protect education, employment, relationships, and records wherever the law allows.
You are not a case number
Court systems run on files, dockets, and deadlines. It is easy for a child or parent to feel like just another name on a list. We want every family we meet to know this: your story matters, and your voice deserves to be heard.
If your child is involved with a GAL, a caseworker, probation, or the juvenile court, you have the right to ask questions. You have the right to understand what is happening. And you have the right to an advocate who treats you with dignity and respect.
That is the standard we hold ourselves to, for every young person and every adult we represent.
