About Jennifer Lynn
Jennifer Lynn Peters earned her law degree from the University of Colorado Law School in 1999 after graduating from Metropolitan State College of Denver in 1996. She began legal work while still in law school, including an internship at Media One in 1998, and moved into a judicial clerkship at the 19th Judicial District (Weld County Courts) in 2000. Those early roles gave her courtroom experience and a grounding in court procedures that would shape her practice.
She entered private practice as a trial lawyer in 2002 at Otis, Coan & Peters, LLC. She remained in trial work through the firm’s subsequent iterations. Records show managing member roles as the firm evolved: at Otis & Peters, LLC in 2013, at Otis Peters & Bedingifield LLC in 2015, and later at Peters Schulte Odil & Wallshein LLC in 2019. Over the years she has handled contested matters and courtroom work, retaining the trial lawyer role as a constant thread in her career.
Peters is admitted to practice before Colorado courts, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, and the U.S. Supreme Court. That federal admissions profile complements her state court practice and underlines regular appellate and circuit-level work as part of the mix. She has balanced litigation duties with administrative and civic roles throughout her career.
Her community involvement has been steady and multifaceted. She served as Municipal Court Judge for the Town of Kersey from 2004 to 2011 and sat on the City of Greeley Civil Service Commission from 2006 to 2011. Within the bar, she served as President of the Weld County Bar Association from 2010 to 2011 and as a Colorado Bar Association District Vice President from 2008 to 2009. Since 2013 she has been a director and board of governors representative for the Weld County Bar Association and has held a board position with CREW Northern Colorado.
Peters also maintains memberships in several local organizations, including the Weld, Larimer and Colorado bar associations as well as the Greeley, Loveland and Fort Collins chambers of commerce. Those ties reflect a practice rooted in the communities where she works.
She currently practices at Peters Schulte Odil & Wallshein LLC, where she continues to handle trial litigation and related civil matters.
