Attorney Joseph Fredenburg of Grand Junction, CO; convicted felon

The state of Colorado presented Joseph Lester Fredenburg with a law license in 2020 after she graduated the University of Colorado School of Law.

Disciplinary Counsel found Joey guilty of engaging in the following misconduct.

• Pled guilty to assault in the second degree—strangulation, a class 4 felony
• Pled guilty to harassment as an act of domestic violence, a class 3 misdemeanor
• The guilty pleas were based on the report of a man who told law enforcement that he believed he saw Joey choking his then-girlfriend
• When the man intervened and pulled Joeyfrom the woman, Joey pushed him against a wall
• Joey then wrapped his hands around the man’s neck for five seconds, strangling the man, who stated, “If I don’t get help, I’m going to pass out” 
• The man said that he could feel Joey’s thumbs press into his esophagus
• Committed a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer’s honesty, trustworthiness, or fitness as a lawyer in other respects

As a direct consequence of her misconduct, the cheerleaders for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Colorado Supreme Court punished Joey by gifting her with a complimentary 6-month suspension of his law license. 

As we speak (ca. June 2022), Joey practices his so-called brand of law with Killian Davis Richter Kraniak PC at 202 North 7^th Street in Grand Junction, Colorado.
