A felony is the most serious type of charge a person can face and having the right representation is crucial. Moorhead and Griffin have represented clients charged with felonies some of which include, but are not limited to: robbery, grand theft, drug possession and/or sales, sexual assault, burglary, aggravated assault, and murder. Penalties for felonies range from one year to life in prison to the death penalty. In Colorado felonies are divided into six different classifications, depending upon the nature of the crime.

The court may deviate from the presumptive penalty range if extraordinary aggravating or mitigating circumstances are found.
