Jeffrey. J. Timlin
MELISSA J. RYE
I have always been drawn to the law
With each and every day I become a better attorney and cherish the great responsibility of helping individuals with their problems. It is important for me that people feel there is someone who cares about them and who will work hard to provide a favorable outcome in their situation.
I attended Michigan State University, where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in 1979. I went on to continue my studies at Thomas M. Cooley Law School and graduated in September, 1982. Completing law school, I took a position in the Detroit Prosecutors Office, where I found my passion for litigation. In 1984, I moved to Colorado and took a position as a law clerk for Phillip Lowery, P.C. and later that year opened my own law practice specializing in criminal litigation, Dependency and Neglect Cases and all aspects of family law.
