About the Firm

Your Rights Deserve
a Fierce Advocate

It doesn't matter whether you committed the crime or not — the legal system provides the same protections to everyone. The problem is, most people don't know what those protections are until it's too late. At Bruno Lilly LeClere, PLLC, we believe every person deserves a skilled, fearless advocate who will speak up on their behalf.

Our founding attorney, Havilah Louise Bruno Lilly, brings a perspective few defense attorneys can offer: firsthand experience working inside the Adams County and Weld County District Attorney's offices. She knows how prosecutors think, how cases are built, and exactly where to look for the gaps in the state's case against you.

Joined by partner Andrew C.R. LeClere, associate attorney Aaron Schmidt, and of counsel Keith C. Coleman, our team brings more than 20 years of combined experience to every client we represent throughout Northern Colorado.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions

Yes. We understand that those facing charges are often overwhelmed and don't know where to turn. We regularly accept calls and contact form submissions from family members and friends acting on behalf of loved ones facing charges in Weld, Boulder, and Larimer Counties. We offer free initial case consultations to help everyone understand the available legal options.
You should be cooperative enough to avoid additional charges, but if police want to interview you about an incident, request to speak with an attorney before that meeting — and know that you have the right to have an attorney present during questioning. Even a seemingly routine interview can be used against you. Having a defense attorney present protects you from being misled or treated unfairly.
Discovery is the process by which your attorney obtains the evidence the prosecution has gathered — including witness statements, police reports, and other case-related materials. Reviewing discovery thoroughly is one of the most critical steps in building your defense, and our attorneys will work with you to understand every piece of evidence in your case.
Absolutely. Proving innocence without professional legal support is far more difficult than most people expect. Law enforcement and prosecutors have significant resources — and they will use them. Our attorneys will protect your rights, challenge the evidence, and make sure your innocence is clearly established. We offer free initial case consultations so you can understand your situation with no obligation.
Failure to read Miranda Rights does not automatically result in case dismissal, but it can have significant consequences. If an officer failed to inform you of your rights and then questioned you, any statements obtained may be deemed unlawful by the court. Our attorneys can evaluate exactly what happened and determine how this affects your defense.
Many offenses are ineligible for sealing, including Class 1 and 2 felonies, level 1 drug felonies, violent crimes, unlawful sexual behavior offenses, DUIs and DWAIs, and crimes with extraordinary aggravating circumstances. However, Colorado's Clean Slate Act — signed by Governor Polis — now allows certain arrest records and older criminal records that did not result in conviction to be automatically sealed. Contact our firm to learn how this law may apply to your situation.
From our offices in Greeley and Fort Collins, we represent clients throughout Northern Colorado — including Weld County, Larimer County, Boulder County, and Adams County. Cities we serve include Greeley, Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor, Boulder, Brighton, Evans, Eaton, Fort Lupton, Fort Morgan, Berthoud, Erie, Firestone, Estes Park, Lafayette, Northglenn, and many more.
