DUI assistance

Mr. Olney represented me in a Driving While under the Influence.  I was able to receive no jail time, suspended sentence and mandatory classes.  I believe that Mr. Olney did an outstanding job and I am very grateful for his services.

Probate with attention to detail

Mr. Olney's office prepared all the necessary documents for the probate of my late husband's estate.  He was very thorough, and all documents were produced as promised in a timely basis. I would recommend him to my friends.

Setting up a corporation

Mr. Olney assisted me in preparing the set-up of my Colorado for-profit corporation.  He was very cordial, attentive and responded to all my particular requests.  I am of the opinion that he and his staff were very helpful and finished the job in a timely manner. 

Successful guardianship petition

I hired Mr. Olney to prepare and represent me in a Petition for Guardianship of a Minor Child. The time spent in preparation for testimony in his office paid handsomely in dividends as the contested hearing took approximately 2.5 hours.  We were successful in obtaining our guardianship and I am very satisfied with Mr. Olney's results.

Wills with a personal touch

My wife and I came to Mr. Olney's office for preparation of Wills.  We also went through the entire process of all of the other documents that are needed in the event that one of us becomes incapacitated.  We are extremely thankful for the extra time Mr. Olney and his staff took in walking us through this difficult matter.  We would recommend Mr. Olney in the future.

Exonerated of Sexual Abuse

A divorced father was accused of sexually abusing his son and daughter. The primary witness against our client was the ex-wife’s mother and the ex-wife herself. Lynn Olney engaged in extensive pre-trial preparation and secured expert testimony of a psychiatrist, who is an expert in child abuse. After 2 days of court hearings, the court exonerated the client of sexual abuse.

Children Returned to Mother

A young woman came to the office after 6 months in women’s prison.  She has two children in foster care. I shepherded her through many pre-trial hearings pertaining to fitness of the unmarried mother and her ability to keep her away from illegal drugs and previous dubious acquaintances. After 4 hearings, both children were returned to my client with unsupervised probation.

No Grandchild Abuse

I received telephone call from frantic grandparents – 10 week old grandson who is in their possession – first turns red then blue and quit breathing. Child was rushed to ER there

ER doctor misdiagnosed child as having subdural hematoma. This led to extensive police interrogation and two days of child be in IC at the hospital. I was called two days later. I met with parents and grandparents at the hospital. I contacted child’s peditriation and requested 2nd opinion. Hospital staff was very defensive and resistive. After several negations hospital staff the second doctor was granted access to the child. Guess what – NO subdural Hematoma. Police and DHS subquently dropped their case.

Thank You for Your Help

We, Craig and Connie, contacted Mr. Olney involving the adoption of a child from Equador when she was only three years old.  There was severe physical and mental abuse to this child before she was adopted that we were obviously not aware of.  Our child has been diagnosed with a detachment disorder; that is, she is unable to emotionally bond with either her adoptive mother or father and has been in a series of institutions since her ninth birthday.  Mr. Olney has represented us with the local El Paso County Department of Human Services and we are extremely satisfied with the negotiations he has conducted with the court system, the Halfway House and the Department of Human Services.

Thank You Mr. Olney

I reside in New Jersey and was involved with a lengthy divorce where there were allegations of physical and psychological abuse.  I am very pleased with Mr. Olney's services and I am still in the process of pursuing child support as there are minor children in the household.  Colleen.
