April is dedicated to working towards getting justice for you, whatever that looks like for your situation. We understand that what may feel like “justice” for one person is not the same for the next. April Murtha knows that sometimes negotiating the best outcome possible is all a client wants, while other times proceeding straight to trial is the only option.
April joined the great state of Colorado back in 1998 where she enrolled at Colorado State University. After graduation April worked at a couple of law offices in Colorado to determine if the legal field was a good fit and also to determine what areas of law were the right fit. Once she started working with a top firm on the Western Slope, April found her niche and the rest is history.
April graduated from Drake University Law School in 2011 with a specialization in Litigation (trial skills). In April’s final year of law school she focused on honing her trial skills and learning real world applications so that she could hit the ground running and be the best attorney she could be for her clients upon graduation. In doing that April completed two judicial internships which gave her insight into the inner workings of judicial decisions and taught her important lessons on how to best present herself and her clients to the Court. Additionally, that year April was the only law student in the Drake Law Criminal Defense Clinic to successfully request, argue for, and obtain a Court Order which required the state to pay for an expert at no expense to the defense. Following that April was also the only Drake Law Criminal Defense clinic student to represent a client at trial for the year 2010-2011. As a result of all of this April was honored with the Robert J. Kromminga award for her excellence and dedication in representing her clients.
