    About Laramie County

    What you should know about criminal defense in Cheyenne

    Cheyenne is Wyoming’s capital and largest city, and its criminal courts reflect that status. Laramie County has the most active prosecution office in the state — cases are charged aggressively, prosecutors are experienced, and the court docket is busy. I-25 and I-80 both run through Cheyenne, making it a high-traffic corridor for DUI, drug, and weapons stops. The presence of F.E. Warren Air Force Base brings military personnel into the local court system, occasionally creating federal-state jurisdictional questions. Cases in Laramie County courts move faster and are litigated more thoroughly than in smaller Wyoming jurisdictions — which means your defense needs to be equally prepared from day one.
