Understanding Colorado's Family Law Environment
In Colorado, family law encompasses a wide range of issues influenced by state-specific regulations and statutes. Being knowledgeable about local laws is crucial for anyone pursuing family-related legal actions. For instance, Colorado is a "no-fault" divorce state, meaning that spouses need not prove wrongdoing to obtain a divorce. This can significantly affect the strategy and outcomes of legal proceedings. Additionally, Colorado courts focus on the equitable distribution of assets and consider factors such as each party’s contributions and economic circumstances when dividing property. Understanding these local nuances can greatly influence the course of legal proceedings.

Frequently Asked Questions About Family Law Services
How Does Colorado Handle Child Custody Arrangements?
In Colorado, child custody is referred to as "parental responsibilities," which encompasses both parenting time and decision-making authority regarding the child. The courts prioritize the best interests of the child when determining parental responsibilities. Factors include the wishes of the parents and child, the child’s adjustment to their home and community, and the ability of each parent to foster a positive relationship with the child. Joint custody is commonly favored to ensure the child maintains meaningful contact with both parents.
What Is the Process for Modifying Child Support in Denver?
To modify child support in Denver, a parent must demonstrate a significant and ongoing change in circumstances since the original order was issued. This can include substantial changes in income, employment status, or the needs of the child. The process begins with filing a motion in court, accompanied by evidence supporting the change. It’s recommended to work with a knowledgeable family law attorney to navigate these modifications smoothly and ensure compliance with state guidelines.

Kevin D Murphy was my lawyer for my divorce which was very very complicated and multifaceted more so than your average divorce. He is very professional and is able to break down complicated legal jargon into a single comprehensible format. Mr. Murphy always showed up on time and professionally dressed. He always kept me updated me as soon as he got new information in the divorce. A divorce is a very long and stressful ordeal. Mr. Murphy took the stress out of the entire situation and had my back at every point in the divorce. I was able to call and or email him 24-7 365 with any questions comments or concerns always promptly replied to the phone call or email with all the information I needed and then some. Mr. Murphy was an advocate for me and my children and facilitated the best possible outcome of the divorce. Mr. Murphy sent me a well documented monthly invoice with all of the fees associated which always checked out. He was worth every penny, and also is a pleasure to be around he's very charismatic and very experienced. To list a few of the items that Mr Murphy did are as follows.
1. He sat down with me and took the time to establish my sworn financial statement that a corporate accountant could go through with a fine-tooth comb.
2. He set up a private investigator.
3. He helped triangulate between child support payments and the payment registry as well as triangulate with the child support enforcement office technician.
4. He recommended and gave excellent tax advice for the fiscal year of which we got divorced which was very complicated.
5. He triangulated with CPS caseworker and local sheriff's involved.
6. Here ran background checks on Associated individuals involved.
7. He was able to pull from all of the information I had given him and extract what he needed to write very professional legal documents.
These are just some of the skills that mr. Murph has. His attention to detail is amazing he caught things that I totally missed. If you are going through a divorce I would personally and only recommend Kevin D Murphy he is a multi-tasker extraordinaire and truly a subject matter expert at what he does. He has improved me and my children's quality of life significantly and alleviated the stress out of the whole entire situation.- Anonymous -

I had the most difficult task of filing for divorce this year. To say that divorce is devastating is an understatement. Kevin was so kind, and really took the time to listen to me, my needs and my wants. The meetings were conveniently scheduled, and he kept them as short as possible.
Kevin was also very communicative regarding the process and what needed to be done. He would simply ask me for the information needed, and fill out all of the long and complicated paperwork for me. He also did an amazing job explaining the paperwork, what it meant and what my rights were.
On top of this, I also moved out of state. Even from 1500 miles away, the communication was amazing, and I never felt uninformed.
Thanks to Kevin, this experience was far from the nightmare I expected. Working with him was a pleasantry, even though the circumstances were less than ideal.- Katie -
Krista, Thank you so much for your help and getting me through this difficult situation.

Megan is an excellent attorney! I highly suggest you hire her for your case. She is assertive, yet very professional. I always felt very cared for knowing that I was in her hands. Throughout my year long legal battle, and all the difficulties from the “other” side, I still felt confident, and had peace knowing that Megan, and her paralegal Christian were working in the background getting me everything that I deserved and than some. You usually don’t plan on needing an attorney in life, I certainly didn’t think I ever would. I closed my eyes and picked one from all the hundreds advertised online. I am writing this to say that your search can be over. Megan, and Christian are all you will need. I am very pleased with how my case turned out, and I know that if I had chosen another attorney, the end result would have been much different then it was. I have zero regrets!!!- Michelle R.

Michael Cheroutes, Jr. negotiated a “Miracle ” settlement for me with exceptional skill and instinct. I am beyond thrilled with the outcome of my divorce and I highly recommend Michael to negotiate your divorce.
Michael was willing to really listen to me:
I had spoken to dozens of attorneys and had even hired a divorce firm, before I was referred to Michael, but they all failed to put in the initial time and energy into fully understanding and comprehending what I was saying about my case. Great lawyers know the value of listening and Michael put in the energy and passion up front, at our initial consultation, that allowed him to extract and analyze the relevant facts he needed to recommend a plan.
Michael knows the Law and is a stellar communicator:
Great lawyers don’t allow their clients to go down expensive rabbit holes. Michael explained clearly what will work and what I needed to focus on. His guidance allowed me to identify what documents and evidence I needed to collect to assist him with my case while saving me money. Michael’s communication with the opposing counsel was genius; he ignored the counsel’s reputation and my dire warnings about him and developed his own professional, strategic and healthy skeptical relationship with him that paid off handsomely for me in the end.
Michael is smart and creative:
Great Lawyers use their knowledge and creativity to craft solutions that I never even realized were possible. Michael approached my case and new information with an open mind and tailored creative solutions to any and all obstacles despite me telling him that my prior attorney said this or that couldn’t be done. We hit one big, tall, unbreakable brick wall and I was in despair what to do. Michael used perfect judgement in determining that the Wall was not worth climbing but instead used it as a negotiating tool where it mattered most and served me best.
Michael is a Great negotiator:
When it came time for mediation Michael helped me prepare and talked with me at length about what to expect which calmed me. Michael summed up my case to the mediator with stunning accuracy and compassion. He had developed a legal and moral argument of why my offer was truly the only fair and equitable outcome. It was remarkable to witness and moved me to tears to realize not only had Michael been listening to me all along but that he really believed in my case and that it mattered to him enough to be well prepared and organized when it was crunch time. The mediator agreed with his argument and I assume she helped opposing counsel agree as well because I received more then I dreamed was possible on the first offer. I was elated with the results and the papers were signed that day!
Great lawyers know how how to prepare effective, clear and well-reasoned legal documents:
As awesome as mediation went I had no idea how important the “boiler plate” legal document, memorializing our agreement was going to be. The first draft written by opposing counsel depressed me and I truly didn’t feel comfortable signing it - there were way too many “what if’s” left out. I expressed my concerns to Michael who told me not to worry and that he still had to review it. The next version, which Michael edited, was effective, clear and well reasoned and addressed every one of my concerns eliminating all my “what if’s”.
A Great Lawyer assembles a great team around him:
Michael and his para-legal Laura, were proactive and in constant communications keeping me updated and informed. I was so grateful to have such a caring and knowledgeable team assisting me during one of the most difficult and dark times in my life. Their passion for serving others was contagious and refreshing. Michael and Laura’s commitment to making things a “little bit better for me” have and will make a dramatic and positive impact on the rest of my life.- Cassandra
