Meet the “B” in BWM. Brent Behler, a partner at BWM, loves helping clients solve problems and navigate the seemingly complicated legal system in a more efficient way. Much of his work involves helping clients draft their estate plans, managing their probate cases, and assisting them with charged crimes. He also represents and provides advice to various businesses, all while teaming up with Niki W. and Erin M. to make his own firm run as well as possible.

Brent worked for six years as a Deputy District Attorney for the Larimer County District Attorney’s Office before opening The Law Offices of Behler, Weesner, & McElroy with Niki and Erin. He believes the work there helped him learn how to navigate complex cases, work with/as a team, and present cases to a judge or jury in a persuasive fashion.

In his free time, you can find Brent hanging out with his wife and daughter or fly fishing on one of our local rivers or alpine lakes. He also sits on the board of 911 for 911, a nonprofit assisting our first responders. Summing up why BWM is a special law office Brent says, “We have an incredible team with extensive litigation experience that works together to get great results for our clients.”

Don't you wish your Monday looked just like ours? BWM took a workday to join Chipping Fore Charities to raise money for one of our near and dear charities, The Center for Family Outreach. You can catch us back in the office tomorrow, but for now, we will be catching some fun and sun!
