As former prosecutor in Denver, Colorado, he handled dozens of high-level criminal trials from 1986 to 1994. Since that time he has practiced both civil and criminal law. In his criminal practice, he has defended all levels of charges, with an emphasis on serious felonies. These have included murder, attempted murder, first and second degree assault, and sex assault cases. Many clients have depended on him where consequences to the charges against them threaten them with long term incarceration.
Often, where a client is under investigation, early involvement has resulted in a significant change in the approach of the investigating officer or district attorney. Having a case rejected for filing can be the result – and this is the best result for anyone under investigation.
Mr. Podboy is admitted to practice in the state courts of Colorado, the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, and the United States Supreme Court. For client with cases in other federal jurisdictions, he has practiced in the federal courts in New York, Texas, and Wyoming.
