John Lee
His firm's page reads the statute rather than summarising it — the twelve-hour driving limit, the fitness and inspection requirements, the two separate insurance tiers with figures. It is the most legally specific page of the fourteen. His own biography attributes a Super Lawyers listing to the wrong publication.
The bar record
We read John Lee in the Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel attorney search — an independent office of the Colorado Supreme Court, and the state’s actual regulator. Every row below is OARC’s.
We were not given this record. We went and got it. The entry supplied to us for this listing came from licensedlawyer.org, which is not the regulator — and which returns 403 Forbidden to us, so we could not load it to check anything on it. So we searched the Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel ourselves and built this listing from what it holds. On three of our fourteen Denver listings the directory and the regulator name different employers; on one the directory publishes an entirely different person’s biography. Every Verified tag on this page is OARC’s. Nothing from the directory carries one.
Colorado is the only register that tells you where its own knowledge stops. Eleven other registers on this site answer the discipline question in some fashion — Texas prints a sentence, Washington refuses to, Pennsylvania does not ask. Colorado answers and then bounds the answer in the same breath: “…no public disciplinary history on file for this attorney within the state of Colorado.” Nine words that tell you exactly what the register does not know. It also publishes two fields nobody else does — whether the lawyer is in private practice, and whether they carry professional liability insurance — and two of our fourteen read NO to both. A register that asks a question can produce an answer you did not expect. Eleven others could not have produced it at all.
What the record shows
The page sets out what Colorado requires of transportation network companies: that drivers be at least twenty-one, mentally and physically fit, licensed, insured and registered; that no driver provide services for more than twelve consecutive hours; that companies run vehicle safety inspections and maintain a published zero-tolerance intoxication policy. Nothing else in this batch is that specific.Verified
It gives the two insurance tiers as $1,000,000 per accident while delivering a ride, and $50,000 / $100,000 / $30,000 while logged on but not delivering. That property-damage figure is $30,000 — where two other pages in this batch give $25,000 and another gives $15,000. We report the spread and resolve none of it.Verified
His biography says 5280 Magazine has recognized him as a “Super Lawyer” multiple times. 5280 publishes its own Top Lawyers list; Super Lawyers is a separate Thomson Reuters product. His own awards list, four lines above, correctly gives “SuperLawyer, 2019-2024” without attributing it to the magazine. One page, two accounts.Verified
