Derica Fullmer

Paralegal

Derica Fullmer began her career at Halligan LLC as the receptionist and has grown into an essential paralegal on our legal team. Her warmth and empathy in client interactions, combined with her legal expertise, make her an invaluable member of our firm.

Derica earned her degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology & Criminal Justice from CSU, where she gained practical experience as an intern at the Larimer County Wellness Court. She’s “always had interest in everything law related,” and this passion is evident in her daily work.

As a paralegal, Derica communicates frequently with clients and opposing counsel, prepares document drafts, and provides crucial support to our attorneys with complex legal matters. Her commitment to professional growth led her to earn her Paralegal Certificate, an achievement that came as no surprise to our team. With the LSATs potentially on the horizon, her future in law seems limitless, though one thing remains certain: her dedication to our clients at Halligan LLC.

Outside the office, Derica is a self-described “animal lover” who worked at animal hospitals during college. She and her husband share their home with Blue, their American Staffordshire Terrier-Husky mix. Together they trek across the foothills and enjoy all the beauty Colorado has to offer.

When she’s not hiking, Derica enjoys kayaking and travelling. She’s also a devoted fan of the Broncos, Nuggets, and CSU Rams, experiencing all the emotional highs and lows that come with Colorado sports fandom. Perhaps it’s this rollercoaster of sports-related emotions that has honed the empathy she brings to her work with our clients every day.

Client Testimonials

    I am so thankful to have had Gavin, Laura, and the rest of Halligan LLC in my corner during a very difficult process. At the end of the day, I can honestly say that I got almost everything I desired including a great parenting plan that will allow me to have as much time with my son as possible.

    I give them my highest possible recommendation. My divorce had some complicating factors including children, a variety of asset types, and partial ownership of a business which needed to be addressed. Gavin and her team were always knowledgeable and prepared for every step in the process.

    Simply put, Gavin made my ex-wife's lawyer look like a guy who got his degree from a mail order catalog! Though he supposedly had been in practice for 30 years, Gavin mopped the floor with him! She countered every demand that my ex and her lawyer made with law that backed my position and she gave me awesome advice on how to respond to their attempts at extortion. In the end, my ex ended up with less than she had before she got greedy.
