  • About Barre

    Dedicated Criminal Defense Attorney

    Barre was born and raised in Morton Grove, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. After graduating from Maine East High School, he attended the University of Illinois, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Accounting with highest honors, followed by certification as a Certified Public Accountant (Barre is not presently licensed as a CPA.).

    After receiving his undergraduate's degree, Barre attended the University of Illinois, College of Law, and was awarded the Order of the Coif, an honor given only to the top 10% of the class. While attending law school, he taught undergraduate accounting classes at the university. He graduated in 1975.

    In 1976, Barre was hired by the reputable firm of Dawson, Nagel, Sherman & Howard, and was transferred to Denver. During this time, Barre was admitted to the Colorado Bar. He then moved to Boulder and clerked for the Honorable William Neighbors.

    His invaluable experience with Judge Neighbors led to an associate position in the Law Office of E. Gregory Martin, P.C. After a couple of years as an associate in the firm, Barre went into private practice. Shortly thereafter, he formed the firm Thorburn & Sakol, which later became Thorburn, Sakol & Throne. When that firm disbanded, he started Barre M. Sakol, P.C.

He dedicates himself to providing the highest quality legal representation to each client, both in and out of the courtroom.

  • Questions

  • What Is The Legal Definition Of Burglary?

    Answer

    Burglary is the act of breaking and entering into a structure with the intent of stealing property or committing another felony offense. You may be charged with a first-degree felony if the burglary offense occurred inside of someone’s’ home. If the offense occurred on commercial property, you will likely be charged with a second-degree felony.

  • What Is The Difference Between Burglary & Robbery?

    Answer

    Robbery is defined as the taking of property against an individuals will, by means of fear or force. Robbery offenses are also referred to as “muggings” or “stickups.” Unlike robbery offenses, a burglary offense does not require a confrontation between parties. In order to be convicted of burglary, the prosecutor is only required to prove that the defendant entered the structure with the intent of committing a felony.

  • What Is The Statute Of Limitations For Burglary?

    Answer

    The statute of limitations for police and prosecutors to file charges against you in court for a misdemeanor burglary offense is one year. The statute of limitations for a felony burglary offense is three years. However, dependent upon the specific circumstances of your case, there may be additional factors that can affect the statute of limitations.
