John Joyner

 Finding yourself on the wrong side of the law in Colorado Springs is not something most people are used to. The experience can be frightening, confusing, surreal. You might feel angry and frustrated, but helpless to stop what’s happening because no one wants to listen to your point of view.

At The Joyner Law Firm, PLLC, we have heard stories like this again and again from our clients, and we always tell them that they did the right thing by not giving in to those feelings and giving up. In the moment, it can seem easier to simply accept what police and prosecutors are telling you and take whatever punishment is coming, but this is a huge mistake.

Why? Because law enforcement officials have one job when dealing with someone who has been arrested or charged: secure a conviction. As a former district attorney, John Joyner knows this first hand – because he did it for his job.

Specifically, Mr. Joyner handled DUI, misdemeanor, and traffic cases with the 4th Judicial District Attorney's Office in El Paso County as a Deputy District Attorney. His time there taught him a lot about how the system works and the way prosecutors are trained to think and behave.

Quite simply, police and others are not required to be honest with you to get you to admit your guilt. Moreover, that “great deal” they offer may not be even close to what you can get with the help of an experienced Colorado criminal attorney.

In his current role as a defense lawyer serving Colorado Springs and surrounding areas, John Joyner now uses this knowledge to give his clients an edge in their cases. Since he understands how prosecutors build their arguments, he can better anticipate them and help you craft a defense strategy specifically designed to raise doubts and poke holes so that a judge or jury will have trouble convicting you.

Beyond his unique experience as a former DA, people say they choose John Joyner because he truly cares and treats them like individuals – not just cases. He has been praised for his reliability, responsiveness, and willingness to listen, and you can be sure that he will always treat your case like it is the most important one he had. Because for you, it is.

Mr. Joyner also understands that this is a trying time for many people not just emotionally, but also financially, and strives to keep costs down as much as he can while still providing you with the best possible service.

Ultimately, it’s about respect. The criminal process can be incredibly dehumanizing, and John Joyner works hard to combat that with his clients. With him at your side, you can be sure that at least one person is listening and fighting for your interests.
