Jason was referred to us by a friend in my son’s recovery group. I feel he provided us with great service due to his knowledge, compassion, and hard work. We would recommend him without any reservation.

I am extremely grateful to have had Jason as my attorney in handling my case. There are not enough words to describe how professional, knowledgeable, and outstanding Jason is both as an attorney and as a human being. I encountered Jason during a very difficult moment in my life when false accusations were made against me. I never imagined I would face such an experience. From the beginning, Jason offered care, professional advice, and unconditional support. Jason provided unwavering support and to help me navigate this extremely challenging situation. His commitment to using the truth to defend his clients is remarkable, and with his help, we won my case. Anyone experiencing false accusations under Title IX or dealing with any other concern within his expertise, I highly recommend Jason. He is not only experienced but also incredibly talented. I believe he is one of the best attorneys you can have, not only in the Colorado area but across the United States. Thank you so much, Jason.

I was facing a very serious felony DUI charge and had sat down with many criminal defense attorneys before being referred to Jason Savela. After speaking with him once, I knew he was the right lawyer for my case. I met with him and went over the details of the case and immediately felt relief once he was retained. Jason stayed in excellent communication with me throughout the whole process and reassured me that we had a very strong defense and that there were many "holes" in my case. I had fully anticipated this case to go to trial, but Jason didn't even allow it to go that far. He met with the DA during the preliminary hearing and came out and told me that my case was getting DISMISSED today. I cannot even begin to describe the relief I felt when he told me that. Jason truly did save my life and I could not have asked for a better result! I highly highly recommend Jason and The Savela Law firm to anyone facing criminal charges and I know that you will be happy with the results!

Hiring Mr. Savela was the best money I've ever spent. He was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and put together a defense that led to the DA agreeing with the evidence Mr. Savela uncovered which lead to my case being completely dismissed. I would recomend his services to my closest friends and family any day!

Working with Jason got my false case of Sexual Assault dismissed. He will fight for you like a lion and uses techniques that only high level lawyers that make 10X more use! You will be not disappointed.

Working with Jason was easy. He mentioned more than a couple times that he wanted to win and I could tell that he was genuine when he said that. He provided detailed information about spacific research he was doing to make sure he had everything covored before the actual hearing date. He also has a very sharp professional partner by his side at his firm, Ryan. Highly recommend working with him.

We first retained Jason in 2014 for a legal case in Boulder County. He was prompt and knowledgeable and resolved the matter to our satisfaction. Then, several years later, we needed court documents from that case, as well as a letter from Jason. He immediately produced both (the documents and his letter), even though the case had long since been completed. I highly recommend him.

I would recommend Jason to anyone. When I was searching for a lawyer I wanted the big man at the firm representing me. I called two separate firms and was instead handed off to underlings who quoted me ridiculous prices without even being able to tell me who would actually represent me. When I contacted Jason I was immediately put at ease, he runs the show at his firm and you deal with him directly. I was charged with assault - a possible felony charge facing 1-5 years in prison. The end result: A misdemeanor charge (deferred) that will be dismissed after one year of successful probation. Jason helped keep my stress low during this trying time. He treats you more like a friend than a client. Lastly, he is very honest. He sent detailed billing statements that showed the exact amount of time he spent on elements of my defense. If he spent ten minutes making a phone call to the DA, you get billed for ten minutes (not rounded up to a half hour/hour etc) You should call him if you are in need, I'm glad I did.

Jason was highly knowledgeable, experienced, professional and had an innovative approach to working on my case. He took the time to work with me on life choices and completely prepared me for my court date. The outcome of my case far exceeded the best case scenario I could have hoped for. I highly recommend contacting him for your legal needs.

Top notch. Savela took fine care of me from start to finish. I felt deeply valued and protected as a client and person. My advice: keep Jason on retainer.
