What We Do – Protecting Colorado Families

We focus exclusively on family law matters throughout Colorado Springs and the surrounding areas. Our practice handles the full spectrum of domestic relations cases with careful attention to each family’s unique circumstances.

Divorce and Legal Separation

Colorado’s no-fault divorce laws allow couples to dissolve marriages without proving wrongdoing. However, property division, spousal maintenance, and parenting arrangements require strategic planning.

• Asset protection and equitable property division

• Spousal support calculations and modifications

• Retirement account and pension distributions

• Business valuation and ownership transfers

We help clients understand their rights under Colorado’s marital property laws. Every financial decision made during divorce proceedings affects your long-term security.

Child Custody and Parenting Time

Colorado courts prioritize children’s best interests when determining custody arrangements. Judges consider multiple factors, including each parent’s relationship with the child, living situations, and ability to cooperate.

• Primary custody and shared parenting plans

• Relocation requests and interstate moves

• Modification of existing custody orders

• Enforcement of court-ordered parenting time

Effective parenting plans protect your relationship with your children while providing the stability they need. We draft comprehensive agreements that address education, healthcare, holidays, and communication.

Child Support and Financial Obligations

Colorado uses specific formulas to calculate child support based on both parents’ incomes, parenting time, and children’s needs. Understanding these calculations helps parents plan financially.

• Initial support determinations and worksheet preparation

• Income imputation for unemployed or underemployed parents

• Medical support and childcare expense allocation

• Support modifications due to changed circumstances

Domestic Violence Protection

Colorado provides legal remedies for domestic violence victims through civil protection orders. These court orders can provide immediate safety while longer-term solutions develop.

• Emergency and temporary protection order applications

• Permanent protection order hearings

• Violation enforcement and contempt proceedings

• Safety planning and resource connections

Your safety and your children’s safety come first. Colorado courts take domestic violence allegations seriously and can issue orders quickly when danger exists.

Real Results for Colorado Families

One client facing a complex property division involving multiple businesses and retirement accounts achieved a settlement that protected her financial future without years of litigation. She retained primary custody and received fair spousal support.

Another father successfully modified a custody order after his ex-wife attempted to relocate their children to another state. The court recognized his strong relationship with his children and denied the relocation request.

A mother obtained a permanent protection order against her abusive ex-husband, ensuring her safety and her children’s safety. The order included provisions for supervised visitation until he completed the required counseling programs.

These outcomes required thorough preparation, understanding of Colorado law, and persistent advocacy. Every family situation involves unique circumstances, but a proper legal strategy can make a significant difference in outcomes.

Colorado family courts handle thousands of cases annually. Judges appreciate attorneys who come prepared with organized evidence, clear arguments, and realistic proposals for resolution.

Why Traditional Family Law Approaches Often Fall Short

Many attorneys treat family law cases like business transactions. They prioritize winning at all costs over finding long-term solutions that work for families. This approach often increases conflict and costs while damaging relationships.

Some firms handle family law as a small part of broader practices. They lack a deep understanding of Colorado’s specific statutes and local court procedures. Family law requires focused knowledge and regular court experience.

Other attorneys promise unrealistic outcomes or encourage unnecessary litigation. They benefit financially from extended court battles while families suffer emotionally and financially.

Family law should focus on resolution whenever possible. Litigation becomes necessary sometimes, but many disputes can be resolved through negotiation or mediation with better long-term results.

Colorado encourages alternative dispute resolution in family cases. Mediation and collaborative divorce can save time, money, and emotional stress while giving families more control over outcomes.

However, some cases require aggressive litigation. When your spouse hides assets, threatens your children’s safety, or refuses reasonable settlement discussions, court intervention becomes necessary.

We start every case by understanding your goals and concerns. What matters most to you? What outcomes would you consider successful? What are you most worried about?
