Darin Schanker

When Darin L. Schanker started his career as a trial attorney three decades ago, he had a very specific vision in mind. As a Colorado native, he knew that his knowledge and abilities had a purpose; to protect the community from those with profit-driven motives and vast resources. Now a nationally respected trial attorney, Darin has dedicated his professional life to growing Bachus & Schanker, LLC, with that vision in mind. Professionally, Mr. Schanker is first and foremost a trial lawyer. His practice is nationwide, and he has tried as lead counsel many different types of injury cases in both federal and state courts all over the country. He has litigated and tried cases from Alaska to Florida; New York to California; and dozens of states in between, with a focus in his home state of Colorado. Such trials have included defective medical devices, pharma cases, medical malpractice, civil sex assault, negligent security, as well as injuries from car crashes. Darin has had the good fortune to achieve some nice results for worthy clients as lead trial counsel; these include the largest medical malpractice jury verdict ever in Colorado history, and the largest compensatory defective hip jury verdict ever in the country. In addition to traditional personal injury litigation, Mr. Schanker also specializes in collective action and mass tort litigation. He has participated in nationally recognized complex litigation involving dangerous drugs and products.
