History
Darin and Teresa Locke had been married for six years before they decided to go to law school. They sold all of their earthly possessions, moved into a tiny apartment, and began law school in 1992. They graduated in 1995, passed the bar and immediately jumped into their new legal careers.
Teresa spent the first 21 years of her legal career at the largest firm in Denver and ended her career at Holland & Hart as a partner with 21 years of litigation and appellate experience. She has handled cases involving large corporations, celebrities, complex litigation, multi-jurisdictional cases, divorces, adoptions, plaintiff's personal injury cases and other matters, including many legal matters that she successfully argued in Colorado's appellate courts.
Darin has spent the his time since law school as a sole practitioner with a wide variety of experiences in criminal, bankruptcy, estate, personal injury, wrongful death, and divorce law.
Since January 1, 2017, they have partnered together to operate The Locke Law Firm, PC.

Darin and Teresa are caring people, with friends and family members who experience the same hardships, bad-luck, and unfortunate circumstances that many of their clients face. With over 52 years of combined legal experience, they have never been shocked or surprised by the circumstances that people find themselves in - they understand that sometimes life doesn't happen like we wanted. Darin and Teresa bring a level of compassion, enthusiasm, dedication, tenacity, and perspective that few law firms ever achieve.
