What Clients are Saying

A great experience from the beginning, Ike focused only on what was needed to make a successful case, very responsive and ensured we understood each step of the process. His negotiation skills are excellent, we never imagined such a reduction in the charge brought against our son considering the circumstances. Incredibly happy with the outcome, and all at the most reasonable price we could find. Thanks so much Ike!

From the start Ike was understanding of my situation and answered all of my questions, and then some. He took on my case at a very fair price, and kept me updated every step of the way. In the end, my case was resolved fairly and painlessly. I would recommend Ike to anyone requesting a traffic lawyer, and he will be the first person I call if I get into another legal situation.

I was a bit overwhelmed with my traffic ticket situation. Ike put me at ease got my tickets dropped and kept me on the road without issue.

Corey

Professional and knowledgeable attorney!  I received an out of state speeding ticket leading to a misdemeanor charge. Attorney Lucero represented me in court and kept me informed during the process. He was honest and his one time fee was reasonable,  compared to other attorneys I spoke to. My misdemeanor was dropped to a traffic infraction. Happy with results,  and sure learned my lesson.

STEWART

 Professional and knowledgeable are the two characteristics you want most from an attorney and Ike is very much both.

He made the whole process as painless as possible, letting me know what would happen at each stage of the process and answering my emailed questions very quickly, often within minutes. His very reasonable rates were an added bonus.

I highly recommend Mr. Lucero if you are in need of his services.

William

I have never received a ticket until I moved to Denver. I got caught in one of Denver’s speed traps. It was a Sunday afternoon when I got caught and emailed Ike Lucero. For my surprise he emailed me back within an hour.  He was very professional and knowledgable. I hope I don’t need to use him ever again but if I have to I wouldn’t hesitate to contact him

ALINE

I had an excellent experience with Ike Lucero. He handled a speeding ticket that I received while visiting Colorado, and negotiated a very favorable plea bargain for me. I couldn’t be happier with the results.

Throughout the whole process, Ike was responsive and willing to answer all of my questions regarding my options and the steps I needed to take. I would recommend him to anyone and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.

Michael

I am  from Arizona and received a traffic ticket in Colorado and reached out to a couple of lawyers for help. Ike was the only one to return my call — and returned it on a weekend! He then helped me to understand the traffic laws of Colorado. I appreciated his prompt response and thorough knowledge of the law for traffic tickets. I would use him in the future.
