About this firm

If you have been arrested, or if you are under investigation for a crime, you need the advice and assistance of an attorney who is well-versed in the criminal justice system and the laws that will affect your case. At Samuelson Law, we provide experienced, effective advocacy and unwavering personal commitment to each client's case. No matter what charges you are facing, we will ensure that your legal rights are enforced and that your case is given the personalized attention it deserves.

Samuelson Law was founded on the belief that people facing criminal charges deserve a zealous, high-quality defense. Fort Collins criminal defense attorney Derek Samuelson is a former Colorado State Public Defender, who served in the Fort Collins, Greeley, and Denver regional offices for more than a decade. He has dedicated his career to fighting for people whose voices aren't always heard in the criminal justice system. He represents people charged with felonies and misdemeanors, including DUI, drug crimes, domestic assault, sexual assault, and countless other offenses. We represent people charged with criminal offenses in Adams County and throughout northern Colorado.

When you need a lawyer, it is important to find someone who you are comfortable with and who is committed to your case. In our Fort Collins law office, we can discuss your case in a discreet, confidential, and non-judgmental setting. We are committed to giving honest, straightforward advice and to providing clients with the highest caliber legal representation during difficult times. We are passionate about protecting the rights of the accused, and we are ready to help you through this difficult period in your life.
