Jennifer C Watkins

Ms Watkins has been litigating criminal defense cases since 2001. She graduated from the University of Denver College of Law in 1999 and subsequently began her career in criminal defense at the Colorado State Public Defender’s Office where she effectively handled more than two hundred and fifty criminal cases at a time on a regular basis. For most of her career, Jennifer has been in private practice, where she is able to dedicate the necessary time, resources and attention to detail to give each client’s case the scrutiny, insight, analysis and zealous advocacy that is often crucial to understanding the uniqueness of each situation and case and litigating with a triumphant outcome. Jennifer has successfully handled a myriad of cases, with particular focus on misdemeanors and felonies involving allegations of assault, domestic abuse, weapons, theft, drug charges and DUI and DUID. Jennifer has an extraordinary ability to unravel cases from many perspectives, to unearth errors and omissions in the prosecution’s case, and to effectively convey the perspective of the accused to prosecutors, judges, and juries.
