Broomfield County is prosecuted by the 17th Judicial District Attorney (Adams & Broomfield Counties). The county's population is approximately 77,000, and its primary criminal courthouse is the Broomfield Combined Court located at 17 DesCombes Drive, Broomfield, CO 80020.
Broomfield is a combined city and county. All felony, misdemeanor, and traffic matters for Broomfield residents are heard at the Broomfield Combined Court on DesCombes Drive. The Broomfield Municipal Court handles city ordinance violations.
Bacharach Law handles criminal cases arising anywhere in Broomfield County, including City and County of Broomfield (consolidated). Cases are frequently filed based on enforcement along major corridors — US-36, Highway 287, and Highway 7 — and in areas with active nightlife and entertainment including Flatiron Crossing area and downtown Broomfield.
DUI is the single most common serious charge filed in Broomfield, driven by enforcement along US-36 between Denver and Boulder and around the Flatiron Crossing corridor. Because Broomfield is a consolidated city and county, a Broomfield DUI is heard at the Broomfield Combined Court on DesCombes Drive — not in Adams County — but it is prosecuted by the same 17th Judicial District DA's office that handles Adams County cases. Knowing how that office charges and negotiates DUI cases, and how the Broomfield courtrooms actually run, matters as much as knowing the statute.
A first-offense Colorado DUI carries 5 days to 1 year in jail (usually suspendable with alcohol education), a $600–$1,000 fine, 48–96 hours of community service, and a 9-month license revocation — and you have only seven days after arrest to request the DMV hearing that protects your license. Penalties escalate sharply with priors or a BAC of 0.15 or higher. Our complete guide covers every tier: Colorado DUI Penalties: First Offense, Jail Time & Your License.
William Bacharach defends Broomfield DUI and DWAI cases from the traffic stop forward: dash-cam and body-cam review, Intoxilyzer 9000 records, roadside-test administration, blood-draw procedure, and the DMV express-consent hearing — which he handles as part of the representation, not as an afterthought.
Every criminal case in Broomfield County starts the same way: scrutinize the stop, scrutinize the search, scrutinize the statement. William Bacharach examines whether police had reasonable articulable suspicion for any stop, whether any search was supported by warrant or exception, whether Miranda warnings were given and honored, and whether the evidence supports the charges actually filed.
For DUI cases, that means reviewing traffic-stop video, Intoxilyzer 9000 calibration logs, NHTSA-standardized field sobriety test administration, blood-draw chain of custody, and whether DMV express-consent deadlines were met. For drug cases, it means challenging the legality of the search under the Fourth Amendment and the reliability of the lab analysis. For assault and domestic violence, it means investigating the full context of the alleged incident, not just the one-sided police narrative.
