DeVoe Law is a Denver-based firm with over 25 years of experience representing businesses, municipalities, and investors across the Rocky Mountain West and beyond. The firm combines deep regulatory knowledge with practical business insight — delivering results on complex matters that demand both legal precision and strategic thinking.

Environmental Compliance & Litigation DeVoe Law advises manufacturers, mining operations, and industrial facilities on the full spectrum of environmental requirements — from air and water quality compliance to environmental remediation and permitting. The firm has successfully defended clients against EPA enforcement actions across Colorado, New Mexico, Montana, South Dakota, and Texas, consistently achieving outcomes well below anticipated liability. DeVoe Law also serves as strategic counsel for businesses planning ahead for Colorado’s evolving greenhouse gas reduction requirements, including long-term market-based compliance solutions.

Water Rights Water is among the most valuable and contested resources in the West, and DeVoe Law brings decades of experience navigating Colorado’s complex water law landscape. The firm has represented some of the state’s most significant water users — including major municipalities, ski area operators, and the nation’s largest hydropower producer — in water court proceedings, basin-wide adjudications, direct flow and storage rights acquisitions, and appeals before the Colorado Supreme Court.

Real Estate & Land Use DeVoe Law represents developers, lenders, and investors in real estate transactions involving environmental due diligence, CERCLA liability management, and Brownfields redevelopment. The firm regularly counsels clients on the acquisition and disposition of properties with complex environmental histories, helping them manage risk and move transactions forward with confidence.

Business Law & Transactions From multi-hundred-million-dollar acquisitions to everyday outside general counsel work, DeVoe Law serves as a trusted legal partner for manufacturing, mining, transportation, and private equity clients. The firm has led environmental due diligence and risk management on major platform acquisitions, represented publicly traded companies in asset transactions, and helped businesses of all sizes navigate government relations, operational risk, and strategic growth.

Non-Profit Governance DeVoe Law guides non-profit organizations through the legal complexities of formation, regulatory compliance, and governance transitions — providing the same level of strategic counsel the firm brings to its corporate clients.
