Konrad Ratzmann

Attorney

As a first-generation American, Konrad Ratzmann’s life is defined by a love for diversity. Beyond his own experiences growing up in a household led by a Chinese mother and German father, he was born and raised in northern New Jersey. Ethnically, socially, and economically, those within Konrad’s community came from all walks of life, and he loved listening to their stories and building genuine connections upon their common ground. These connections instilled Konrad with the belief that all people deserve respect, dignity, and the opportunity to live the fullest lives possible. Building upon this fascination with the human experience, Konrad studied anthropology at Rutgers University, where he graduated summa cum laude from the Honors College.

After graduating, Konrad spent several years living and working in Brooklyn, New York, where he discovered that he did not just want to hear people’s stories – he wanted to be a part of them. Looking to work with and for people at critical moments in their lives, Konrad decided to pursue a career in law and enrolled in the CUNY School of Law. Throughout law school, he actively sought positions where he could serve others in need, interning with nonprofit organizations that provide pro bono legal services to marginalized communities and practicing as a student attorney in the school’s Human Rights and Gender Justice clinic. Recognizing that all persons, regardless of their background or experiences, may find themselves injured and in need of a caring and committed practitioner, Konrad shifted his professional focus toward personal injury, giving him an opportunity to once again meet, connect with, and work for people from all walks of life.

As a longtime cyclist, recent runner, and general lover of the outdoors, Konrad has long been drawn to Colorado’s natural beauty. Upon receiving his Juris Doctor degree in 2021, he, his partner Olivia, and their dog Piper embarked on a cross-country road trip before settling down in Boulder. Today, Konrad is proud to call Colorado his home and he is proud to be in a position where he can ensure that all people have access to personal, quality representation in their own time of need.
