One of the toughest times in my life was when I found myself needing a civil rights attorney. I was lucky enough to meet attorney Michael Fairhurst with Killmer Lane. If you believe you have been wronged and need someone to be your advocate, Michael is the one to contact at the Western Slope Office. He always made me feel very comfortable with his reassuring and confident demeanor. And more importantly, he is extremely knowledgeable and worked very hard to learn every detail pertaining to my situation. He fought hard, and we won! I would highly recommend his services to anyone!
