Overview

Content is provided by the firm.

Ogborn Mihm LLP is a boutique trial firm based in Denver, Colorado, founded by three former presidents of the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association. Each of our founding partners is a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates, and each has substantial experience trying complex, high-stakes cases.

We guide our clients through the litigation process by relentlessly preparing their cases for trial, but always with a goal of controlling costs and, if possible, resolving cases to clients' satisfaction before trial.

We focus on plaintiff-side litigation in the following areas: i) commercial and business tort disputes, ii) legal malpractice, iii) construction defect, iv) employment and wrongful discharge, v) insurance bad faith, vi) personal injury and wrongful death litigation, and vii) whistleblower and False Claim Act (Qui Tam) litigation.

We are one of the few law firms in the United States that focuses on representing plaintiffs in legal malpractice lawsuits. We have obtained some of the largest legal malpractice jury verdicts and settlements in the United States. We are listed as a Metropolitan Tier 1 Firm in the field of Legal alpractice Law - Plaintiffs, and founding partner Michael Mihm has been named by Best Lawyers as the "2015 Lawyer of the Year" in the field of Legal Malpractice Law - Plaintiffs.

Our commercial and business tort cases often involve contract disputes, corporate control disputes among owners of closely-held companies, oil & gas litigation, probate and estate litigation, real estate litigation, non-compete agreements, or issues of breach of fiduciary duty, self-dealing, theft of intellectual property, fraud, equity stripping, and other misdeeds.

Our trial attorneys represent clients in both state and federal courts throughout the Southwest and Midwest. We are 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 we represent many clients on a traditional hourly fee basis, we also represent a significant number of our business and individual clients on a contingent fee or hybrid contingent-hourly fee basis.
