DUI and Criminal Client Testimonials

I retained Jay T. to represent me regarding a DUI over .20, involving an accident that was my fault, regular DUI and careless driving. From the initial contact with Jay I was confident that he knew the system and processes inside and out. He evaluated my situation and made recommendations to me in order to assist in my defense and eventual sentencing. I followed his recommendations and in the end received a sentence that was the minimum the law would allow the Judge.

I firmly believe, in speaking with numerous other people that had similar infractions, that as a result of his knowledge and experience, the sentence that Jay T. got for me was considerably lower than all the others received. I give Jay T. all the credit for this. I do not believe I would have received as light of sentence without his knowledge of the law, the process, the courts and the court personnel. Jay T. also responded to an email of mine while he was on his honeymoon which demonstrates his professionalism and commitment to his clients. I will be forever grateful to Jay T. and recommend him to anyone who needs representation in a criminal matter.

-Mr. J., Aurora, CO

I was arrested on suspicion of driving while intoxicated when exiting as light rail station after a Broncos game. I submitted to a blood test which later determined my BAC was slightly over .2. While I am myself a lawyer, I found the DWI laws and the DMV regulations very complicated and convoluted. Jay answered all of my questions and instilled confidence. As a former district attorney, he was not only knowledgeable about the applicable laws, but also understood the system as a whole; the judges, district attorneys and DMV hearing officers. Jay was able to quickly secure a plea agreement with the DA resulting in the mandatory minimum penalties available by law. He was also able to get me a probationary license after the mandatory one month suspension, which enabled me to drive to work and satisfy family commitments. If you are in need of a criminal defense lawyer, I highly recommend Jay.

-Mr. W., Centennial, CO

I was charged with speeding and with a DWAI while visiting Colorado.  Because I am an attorney, I was considering trying to work a deal with the local district attorney.  I thought, though, that I would research some of the local Colorado law firms to see if I learned anything that might be helpful.  While performing the research, I decided to contact and then hire Jay T. because I expected that he would be very knowledgeable and competent.  I also had the sense that he was conscientious and ethical from various comments in the testimonials (and from things Jay himself said) on the website.  In working with Jay to get the results I had hoped for, I very strongly concluded that he is an attorney you can expect to be on your side to and to make a strong effort to get the best result possible.  I totally trust his judgment, his ethics, and his integrity.   All of this coupled with the experience and competence he brings to the table makes him a candidate that everyone should seriously considering for their representation.  I was very happy with his representation and with my results.   I only wish I hadn't been in the situation I found myself in.

-CC, Texas

Jay appreciated that my domestic violence case absolutely had to be resolved with a very specific outcome. He listened and reassured me and kept open lines of communication with the D.A. It all worked out as desired. Thank you, Jay.

-Mr. C., Brighton, CO

I was charged with Reckless Endangerment and a Weapons charge in Arapahoe County, Colorado.  Jay was able to do resolve my case with a deferred judgement, a shortened probationary period and successfully modified the conditions of my probation to allow me to pursue a new opportunity at my work.  This was my first interaction with the Criminal Justice system and I was very anxious.  Jay’s straight forward manner allowed me to have realistic expectations of the process.  Moreover, Jay was very responsive to all my questions and returned emails and phone calls often during non-business hours.  I felt very fortunate to have Jay represent me.

Mr. S., Denver, CO

When you get charged with a DUI, i don’t think many people realize how much they are looked down upon and are treated like common criminals, with just about everyone who is involved in the process, that comes thereafter the charge. Even down to people with whom you are doing community service. I went to court a few times by myself before calling Jay and it wasn't until I had hired Jay that any court official would even begin a conversation with me. In these times it was really nice to know that Jay was in your corner. He brings all of the logistics and hassles of the court system down to a level that you can understand all of your options. A lot of stress was relieved by knowing that he was going to do everything that he could to help you. In my case a DUI was reduced to a DWAI and i was able to keep my license. The money that was invested in Jay made up for all of the additional costs that were saved by dodging the DUI and then some. I was very lucky to find him.

-Mr. R., Denver, CO

I was arrested on suspicion of a DWAI and failure to stay in lane in September of 2008. I had many recommendations on which trial lawyer to chose and I finally settled on Jay due to his knowledge of the law and his ability to be frank, open and honest while still instilling a positive outlook.
Jay took care of all the little and big things that needed to be done in the 9 months that passed between infraction and trial. We decided to go to trial based on the desired outcome (I would have lost my license due to points if I took the plea) and I received a not guilty verdict on both counts. I firmly believe that Jay was the driving force in this decision and I am grateful for his help. I would recommend Jay to anyone.

-Mr. K., Denver, CO

Throughout the process of dealing with the repercussions of a DUI arrest there are opportunities for the offender to be belittled, looked down upon and treated as a criminal.  The amount of respect that Jay displayed throughout our time working together was one of the most important benefits of having him as my representative.  He kept me well informed of what to expect.  He helped me manage the consequences of my actions in a way that my life could keep moving forward in the wake of a very bad decision.  That was more than I could ask for.

-Mr. G., Castle Rock, CO

Jay Tiftickjian represented me through a DUI I received in Denver in 2006. I am a business owner and family man and I consider myself to be an upstanding member of society so this unfortunate situation really rocked my world. Jay was very understanding of my dilemma as well as of my anxiety in having to deal with the consequences. He helped me through the unpleasant legal action from the start to the finish in a very professional and personal manner. Jay took care of everything from getting my blood alcohol level re-tested, meeting with the department of motor vehicles to get my license reinstated to getting my probation released over a year early. Jay made himself accessible always and went the extra mile including answering questions while on his honeymoon.

Since getting me through my first problem, Jay has assisted me in getting 2 speeding tickets reduced in points after I tried and failed to do so on my own. I personally recommend Jay Tiftickjian with high regard to anyone facing difficult DUI or traffic violations. If anyone can help you Jay can.

- Mr. H., Denver, CO

I was on parole with my second DUI when I tried to outrun the police.  Jay Tiftickjian not only kept me from getting my parole revoked, but got me 70 days house arrest. I strongly recommend The Tiftickjian law Firm. J.T. you are the man!

-Mr. G., Pueblo, CO

I was accused of a domestic violence case in Jefferson County. By mistake, I plead guilty to that charge. Jay was able to reopen the case and finally got it dismissed. He also got my apartment back and sealed my criminal record. I noticed Jay is very professional, reasonable and honest. His way of defense is efficient and he overcame the DA, especially in front of the judge. If anyone in the future asks me about a criminal lawyer, I definitely would refer him to Jay.

-Mr. A., Golden, CO

I was charged with domestic violence out of Denver County with one prior while at the halfway house from DOC and Escape from the halfway house out of Adams County. I had four felony convictions and seven total felonies on my record at the time that I received these charges, so any other convictions would’ve been devastating. If convicted, I was looking at doing another four to twelve years consecutive to the sentence that I was already serving while in the halfway house which was a four year sentence with two and a half years served.  I would’ve lost everything. But thanks to Jay, I got both of those new charges dismissed and paroled back home within six months. He even went the extra mile and called to DOC headquarters to speak with the director of the parole board on my behalf.  I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney, nor will I retain or recommend any other attorney ever again.  Jay was honest with me from day one, and he fought hard to get the results that I needed. Thank you Jay, because of you I have the opportunity to make my mother proud and do something with my life.

-Mr. C., Thornton, CO

I was booked in the Denver City Jail on charges of Felony Robbery and subsequent to my release the charges were reduced to Misdemeanor Assault and Destruction of Personal Property. Jay was able to work a deferred judgment with the District Attorney to drop the Assault and Destruction charges pending I pay a $100 fine and complete 1 year of unsupervised probation. After completion of the probation the original charge of Felony Robbery was still in the Colorado Bureau of Investigation's database and Jay successfully sealed that record. I was extremely satisfied with Jay's level of professionalism and his understanding that, as a college student, the outcome would directly affect my future.

- Mr. B., Denver, CO

Thank you so much Jay. Words will never express how appreciated you are for everything you've done for my brother and my family. We are forever grateful!

-Ms. L., Denver, CO

I was charged with hitting city property, failure to report an accident, and careless driving. Jay was able to drop the 28 points against me to 8 and saved my license. Jay, I can't thank you enough for all you have done for my family and I over the years. Hopefully I won't have to use you in the future but if I do I know I will be in good hands.

-Mr. G., Bennett, CO

I was charged with a DUI. My brother was able to find Jay. He was very nice and pleasant to talk to. He explained everything specific and thorough… Excellent work as a defense attorney.

-Mr. D., Aurora, CO

Thank you so much Jay for everything you've done for D____ and all of us. I know everything happens for a reason and I thank God he sent you to do the great work you did. You will be blessed.

-Mr. L., Denver, CO

I retained the service of Mr. Tiftickjian while he was working at another firm. Because of his expert knowledge in DUI law, he was assigned my case. My charge of DUI was not my first and my BAC was above .200. I knew that my sentence would not be pleasant regardless of counsel, but Jay walked me through the entire process and I felt comfortable with the ultimate sentence I was given as a result of his efforts. Two and a half years later, just prior to complete resolution of my DUI sentence, I was cited for driving under a suspended license, a result of the DUI. I was devastated and extremely concerned of the sentence, almost more so than the DUI. I was facing jail time and continued suspension of my license. Because of Mr Tifickjian's success in my prior case, I retained his services again with confidence. He was able to reach a settlement with the DA to allow me to keep my license with no jail time. A complete win for me.

-Mr. B, Highlands Ranch, CO

I was recently charged with a illegal weapons charge and it was going to ruin my future if it stayed on my record. I am a college student and could not afford for all of my hard work to go down the drain already. Hiring Jay was probably the smartest thing I have done in my life. He helped me through court and got me some of the best news I could of heard. I have to take one class and have Unsupervised probation for one year and then this charge will be dismissed. I was so relieved when I heard this news and am forever thankful for finding Jay's law firm. I hope I never have to see him again under those kind of circumstances but I will definantly recommend him to anyone in need of an amazing lawyer. I can not thank him enough and am forever grateful.

-C., Denver

In August of 2008 I was charged with a DUI.  Jay went to my DMV hearing and won due to a technically and then represented me in Adams County Court.  This was a second offense for me...  I credit Jay for getting my charges reduced to a DWAI and keeping me out of jail.  I realize drinking and driving was a huge mistake and it only compounded the stress I was already dealing with...  All in all I feel Jay did a wonderful job with my case and would refer him to anyone in need...

-Ms. E., Commerce City, CO

Jay is one of the best Denver DUI and criminal attorneys I have ever dealt with. He is professional, knows his law and will give you the best representation. When in need of legal counsel, he is the first person I turn to and the first person that I tell people to call.
