Mr. Harding began his legal career in 1991 after earning his law degree from University of Denver Sturm College of Law and his approval to practice law in the state of Colorado. Prior to founding his firm, he spent five years gaining valuable trial experience while working as an associate attorney at large litigation firms in the Denver area.

Since 1995, attorney Harding has earned a reputation as a formidable opponent in the courtroom. He has secured a number of settlements and verdicts for his clients, including many multimillion-dollar jury verdicts in wrongful death cases.
