Beth has 26 years of courtroom experience, having acted as lead trial counsel on more than thirty jury trials and lead counsel on hundreds of appellate cases brought before Colorado appellate courts and the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.  In connection with her appellate work Beth has presented oral arguments in the Colorado Court of Appeals or Colorado Supreme Court on more than fifty occasions.  

After a career in television news, Beth attended the University of Colorado School of Law and upon graduation accepted a position with the Colorado Public Defender System where she worked in both the Denver Trial office and in the state Appellate Division.  By virtue of her work as both a trial and an appellate lawyer Beth has extensive experience and expertise as both a trial lawyer, having acted as lead attorney on hundreds of felony prosecutions ranging from fraud to first degree murder and as an appellate lawyer, having briefed and/or argued hundreds of cases in Colorado appellate courts.  

In 1998 Beth took her trial and appellate skills to the civil arena with the law firm of Leventhal & Brown, one of Colorado’s premiere medical malpractice law firms, handling the appellate and motions practice for the firm.  

In 2000, Beth accepted a position with the newly created law firm of Hoffman, Reilly, Pozner and Williamson, where she worked for five years working on a number of complex commercial cases, including representation of Pat Bowlen, the owner of the Denver Broncos Football Club.

  In 2005, Beth created her own law firm, concentrating her practice on criminal defense, personal injury litigation and appellate advocacy.  

In 2007, Beth relocated her practice to the Roaring Fork Valley partnering with Richard Cummins and forming the law firm of Cummins & Krulewitch.  Continuing to focus on criminal defense, civil litigation and appeals, Beth has expanded her practice to include family law issues.  

Beth’s advocacy skills have earned her national recognition.  In 1998 she was the recipient of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyer’s “Champion of Justice Award”, for her work in freeing two men who were serving life sentences for crimes that they did not commit.  As the recipient of this prestigious award Beth joins the ranks of such notables as Justice William J. Brennan Jr., Professor Julian Bond and Sister Helen Prejean.
