Denver Senior Counsel John F. Hilkin and Associate William G. Dewey were recently elected to the board of directors of the Colorado Judicial Institute (CJI).
CJI is a nonprofit that promotes excellence, equity, impartiality, and public trust in Colorado’s courts. CJI was formed in 1979 to support Colorado’s judiciary and merit-based judicial selection system, adopted when voters rejected partisan judicial elections. CJI annually recognizes outstanding state court judicial officers and supports judicial education.
Hilkin is a litigator focused primarily on insurance defense. He has obtained defense verdicts in first- and third-party insurance litigation. He has also obtained favorable verdicts in cases involving automobile accidents, premises liability, ski collisions, product liability, real estate disputes, and construction litigation.
Dewey focuses his practice on professional liability and attorney disciplinary matters. Before beginning his legal career, he worked for nonprofits and state government in affordable housing and homeless services.
