Why Work with Morris & Watrous?

The decision of which law firm you choose to represent your business is extremely important. Businesses need a partner who both understands their goals and the law involved. At Morris & Watrous, we create long-lasting relationships with our clients, who rely on us to help reduce potential issues throughout the course of their business and their transactions.

We review your situation to determine how we can best achieve our client’s goals.
We work proactively to help our clients avoid legal problems whenever possible and position them in as strong a position as practicable in the event of disputes or litigation.
Our attorneys have a wealth of hands-on business, real estate, and financial experience.

We help clients of all sizes in a wide range of industries. Regardless of our clients’ size or industry, we take a personal interest in achieving their goals, engage with them on a personal level, and work together as part of a collaborative team.

We are proud to offer services including assistance with purchasing or selling businesses, due diligence, compliance matters, corporate formation and governance, re-organization, and other essential services. We also work with businesses and individuals on complex commercial, business and real estate transactions & disputes.

Our attorneys have a wealth of hands-on, real-world experience, with members of the firm having owned and operated businesses, including title companies, commercial lending firms, and commercial and development real estate ventures. We leverage this experience and understanding of how businesses operate and what their needs are for each and every client we work with.

While we work proactively to help our clients avoid legal problems whenever possible and position them in as strong a position as practicable in the event of disputes, sometimes litigation is necessary. We are ready, willing, and able to go to court on behalf of our clients. We have significant trial experience and have successfully represented clients in Colorado before the state district courts, appellate courts, the Colorado Supreme Court, the federal district court in Denver and the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals, 10th circuit.

stars What Our Clients Are Saying

Reed has been an integral part of setting up my real estate business by helping me set up the legal entity and creating the right policies, manuals, and contract to make it all work. Additionally, I can send clients to him with their legal and transactional needs if my license doesn't allow me to address it. The great work he does makes me look good in return. Highly recommend.

Craig helped me negotiate a business partnership split, it was somewhat complicated but he managed to work efficiently with the other party to reach common ground; avoiding unnecessary litigation or financial burden.

Construction Law

Morris & Watrous pledges has significant experience working with clients on a full spectrum of construction issues. We have helped construction clients with payment disputes, construction defects, building permit issues, and other compliance matters. We also act as outside counsel for construction firms for their day-to-day legal issues such as employment law and general corporate matters.

We can help advise our clients from the initial design, bidding, and drafting of the contracts. And we can help fight for and against any liens that may be applicable.

In addition, Morris & Watrous can help apply for any loans necessary for your business, as well as assist you in navigating the process of construction loan management, inspections, and requests for draws. We help our clients collect any payments that they are entitled to for work that they performed. This can be done via mechanic liens if the customer refuses to compensate a contractor for work performed.
