Education & credentials
Andrew graduated Magna Cum Laude from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School, but his academic foundation started earlier, with a B.S. in Interdisciplinary Engineering from Purdue University. That background shapes how he approaches every case. Where other attorneys argue, Andrew analyzes. He spots the details others miss — in blood test methodology, field sobriety scoring, forensic reports, and witness accounts — and then uses science and math to show a jury exactly why a piece of evidence does or doesn’t hold up.
He’s also completed the same Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) course that law enforcement officers take, giving him an inside understanding of how these tests are supposed to be administered — and how often they aren’t.
Track record in Colorado courts
Before founding Pav Law, Andrew spent six years practicing criminal defense at firms across Colorado Springs, building working relationships with prosecutors throughout the state and developing a deep familiarity with how local courts operate. He handled 1 in every 71 DUI cases in the entire state of Colorado in 2023 — a caseload that speaks to both his reputation and his work ethic.
Why criminal defense
His path to criminal defense wasn’t purely academic. After being falsely accused himself, Andrew understood firsthand what it feels like to face a charge you didn’t commit — the fear, the uncertainty, and the desperate need for someone in your corner who actually gives a damn. That experience didn’t just inform his career. It defined it.
About Pav Law
In June 2024, Andrew left to build something of his own. Pav Law was founded on a simple belief: that compassion, respect, and a dedication to the truth are not just values — they’re a strategy.
“Most other firms won’t deal with that kinda stuff. Casey and I certainly aren’t the most experienced attorneys. We won’t always be the smartest ones in the room. But whether we care more about what we do and who we do it for is a choice.”
— Andrew Brown, Founding Attorney, Pav Law
Outside the office
Outside the office, Andrew practices mixed martial arts and acrobatics and travels the world — having visited every state in the U.S. before the age of 25. If you’ve ever wondered what kind of person becomes a criminal defense attorney after earning an engineering degree, spending years inside the system, and coming out the other side with more conviction than before — now you know.
