But, if the prosecutors decide not to play ball, we will aggressively protect your rights and fight for your freedom in court.
- Traffic Violations
At the Denver law firm of Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff, our experienced attorneys defend clients unfairly ticketed for speeding, reckless driving and a host of other traffic violations. If you received a citation or multiple citations following a motor vehicle accident or if you were charged with hit and run, you may be facing more than simply a fine and points on your license. There may be serious civil or criminal litigation pending against you.

We can also fight for your rights in civil and criminal litigation arising out of a serious traffic violation or auto accident. Our team of attorneys can advise you as to how best to proceed. We have and intimate understanding of the courts in cities, towns and small municipalities throughout Colorado. We know what can and cannot be done, courthouse by courthouse.
- Vehicular Assault or Homicide
Our team of attorneys can zealously defend your rights in vehicular homicide cases. The penalties associated with a conviction or guilty plea can be severe, including jail or prison time and substantial fines. It is vitally important to talk to an attorney who has experience and a proven track record of success in these cases before you give a statement or make any admissions to the police.
We understand that clients accused of careless or reckless driving, DUI or DUID resulting in injury or loss of life may feel responsible for the accident. They may feel like the right thing to do is to accept the blame. Taking responsibility for a mistake or error in judgment does not mean pleading guilty to serious criminal charges.
- Drug Crimes Defense
At the Denver criminal defense law firm of Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff, we offer proven experience and an aggressive approach to defending our clients against drug crime charges of all kinds. Whether you are being charged in state or federal court, we will fight for your rights and your freedom against charges such as:
Misdemeanor drug possession (involving small amounts of marijuana or other "recreational drugs")
Felony possession with intent to distribute (often involving large amounts of cocaine, heroin, Ecstasy, methamphetamines or other "hard drugs")
Drug sale and distribution
Drug trafficking and importation
Drug manufacture or cultivation (often referred to as marijuana grow house or meth lab cases)
Drug crime charges arising out of a DUID arrest (driving under the influence of drugs)
Any misdemeanor or felony drug crime charge involving a controlled illegal substance, including prescription drugs like Zanax, OxyContin, Ridalin and Adirol
Often drug crime cases involve the violation of important constitutional protections in the investigation or arrest. If the evidence against you was obtained as the result of an illegal search and seizure, that evidence can often not be used to convict you. We examine every aspect of police procedure and the prosecution's case to uncover mistakes and misconduct. The experienced attorneys at Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff will fight to protect your rights and hold the government accountable for any violations or procedural errors that may serve as a basis for having your charges reduced or thrown out altogether.
- Violent Crime Defense

Minors in possession of alcohol or tobacco (MIP)
We believe that every defendant deserves a fair trial and zealous representation.
- Assault & Battery
There's nothing more expensive than thinking you can handle a violent crimes charge without the help of an experienced attorney. Many people facing charges for assault or battery dont realize the seriousness of the situation. They feel that because the initial altercation was not that serious or was the other person's fault, the consequences can't be that severe. They are wrong. Assault and battery charges are serious. You need a lawyer with serious experience and a proven track record of success. That is what you will find at Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff.
- Rape & Sexual Assault
At the Denver law firm of Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff, our team of experienced attorneys can take rapid action to protect your rights. Many successful defenses begin with a thorough investigation into the allegation, searching for inconsistencies in evidence and witness statements that may form a basis for having charges reduced or dismissed, including:
Rape, date rape, statutory rape and acquaintance rape
1st and 2nd degree sexual assault
Child molestation and sexual assault on a child
Sexual assault on a child
Enticement, indecent exposure and other unlawful sexual conduct
Online solicitation of a minor
Possession or distribution of Internet child pornography
- Domestic Violence
The lawyers at our firm offer sound legal advice and dedicated representation to men and women charged with domestic violence. These are complex situations in which our ability to thoroughly examine the long-term effects can be of enormous benefit to our clients. We will fight to minimize the negative consequences of a domestic violence charge. If you are convicted, you may lose your right to own a gun. You may lose custody or visitation rights. You may have to face the serious restrictions imposed by a no-contact order, protective order or restraining order. We can get to work immediately to protect your rights on multiple fronts.
- Forgery & Embezzlement
At the Denver law firm of Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff, our team of accomplished attorneys offer the same level of dedicated representation to clients charged with check or credit card fraud as those facing federal charges relating to corporate embezzlement and other serious financial crimes. Some of our clients charged with forgery or fraud will admit to having made a mistake or an error in judgment. We do not believe that the appropriate consequence should be a lengthy term in jail or prison. In many cases, the consequences of conviction for forgery are far in excess of what many people would feel is reasonable.
The capable lawyers at Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff can step in immediately to protect your rights. We will aggressively challenge the prosecution's evidence and theory of the case. We fight hard so that our clients have a chance to clear up any mistakes or misunderstandings that may be the root cause of the criminal charge.
- Juvenile Offenses
Even a seemingly casual juvenile offense, such as minor in possession of alcohol (MIP) or juvenile marijuana possession, can lead to long-term consequences. If your child has three juvenile adjudications on his or her record, no matter how serious the offense, there is a risk that he or she could be placed in the Department of Youth Corrections (DYC) for an extended period.
Parents are often highly concerned about some of the underlying issues involved when a child is charged with a juvenile offense. Many may want their child to take responsibility for the juvenile offense. Taking responsibility does not mean pleading guilty or waiving Constitutional protections. We offer sound legal guidance to the entire family, so that the decisions made can be in the best interest of the child.
At the Denver law firm of Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff, our team of attorneys has substantial experience defending minor clients charged with juvenile offenses. We understand the juvenile courts, the process and the potential outcomes.
