Keith Coleman earned his J.D. from the University of Denver, College of Law. Mr. Coleman began his legal career in 1994 with the Colorado State Public Defender’s Office as a trial attorney in Arapahoe, Douglas and Kiowa counties. In 1996 Mr. Coleman transferred to Adams County, where he had grown up. Mr. Coleman left the Public Defender’s Office in 2001 and began a sole practice, where he worked as a general practitioner handling all legal matters.

Soon after entering private practice he helped found the law firm Coleman, Liu and Lyons. At this time Mr. Coleman is in solo practice so he can focus all his energy on criminal defense law without the bother of managing a law firm.
