About Ogborn Mihm LLP

Ogborn Mihm LLP is a firm of seasoned trial lawyers based in Denver, Colorado. Founded by three former presidents of the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association, the firm focuses on high-stakes business and professional liability litigation likely to go to trial. Ogborn Mihm is one of the few law firms in the United States that specializes in representing plaintiffs in legal malpractice lawsuits. The firm has obtained some of the largest jury verdicts and settlements in legal malpractice cases in the United States. It is rated by U.S. News and World Report and The Best Lawyers in America as a Metropolitan Tier 1 firm in the field of plaintiff legal malpractice litigation.

When undertaking a client's cause, the firm's trial teams focus on working up the case to best prepare it for trial, but always with a goal of controlling costs and resolving the case to the client's satisfaction before trial if possible. To that end, the firm includes the client in the case planning at every step of the process. The firm's goal is to quickly respond to clients' questions and concerns and address their practical business needs. On significant cases, the firm uses trial consultants, jury focus groups and other cutting-edge trial techniques and technology to prepare the case for trial. Members of the firm serve as trial consultants and conduct jury research for other law firms.

The firm's clients are mostly entrepreneurs and closely-held businesses, however, its clients range from individuals to Fortune100 companies. Most of the firm's referrals come from other lawyers, with a significant portion of those referrals coming from clients' in-house counsel or outside general counsel. The firm serves clients in state and federal courts throughout the United States, with a significant portion of its cases in the Rocky Mountain west and Midwest.

Ogborn Mihm LLP is a member of the International Society of Primerus Law Firms, a highly-selective alliance of more than 190 top-rated, independent law firms located in more than 135 cities around the world.

While the firm represents many clients on a traditional hourly fee basis, the firm also represent a significant number of its business and individual clients on a contingent fee or hybrid contingent-hourly fee basis.

  • Representative Clients

    Legal Malpractice – Breach of Fiduciary Duty / Corporate Control – $2.5 Million Jury Verdict. Ogborn Mihm represented the owners of one of Colorado's most prominent retail businesses in a legal malpractice lawsuit against the owners' former lawyer. The lawyer had secretly worked with disgruntled family members in an attempt to seize control of the company, resulting in expensive litigation. In April 2014, after 9-day trial, a Denver jury awarded $2.5 million to the firm's clients. Deborah Shpall, et al. v. Jay Chapman, Esq., et al., Case No. 2013CV32307, District Court, City and County of Denver, State of Colorado.

    Legal Malpractice – Land Use Application – $12.8 Million Jury Verdict. After a national law firm mishandled a client's subdivision application for an 8,600-acre ranch near Park City, Utah, causing the client to lose 40% of its density rights, the client retained Ogborn Mihm to pursue a legal malpractice claim. After a 14-day trial, a Salt Lake City jury awarded all of the $21.36 million requested at trial, but assessed 40% comparative fault to the client, thus reducing the award to $12.8 million. The trial court later awarded the client an additional $1.46 million for prejudgment interest, for a total judgment of more than $14.2 million. 910 Cattle Company v. Stoel Rives, LLP, Case No. Civil No. 100907407, Third District Court, Salt Lake County, Utah.

    Utility Overcharges - $12.5 Million Jury Verdict. When a client steel company discovered that a utility had overcharged for electricity by many millions of dollars, Murray Ogborn recovered a $12.5 million jury verdict after a six-week trial in the U.S. District Court in Nebraska. Nucor Steel v. Nebraska Public Power District.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions
