Helping Arapahoe County Clients Navigate Highly Personal Family Matters
No matter the family matter you are dealing with, our family law lawyers can guide you through the process, making the well-being of your family a priority.
Our practice areas include:
- Child custody: Child custody, recently renamed “parenting responsibilities,” calls coparents to consider the individual roles they will play in their child’s life. Our lawyers will help you review your options and fight for a joint or sole custody decision based on your case, your wishes, and your child’s needs.
- Child support: We are dedicated to helping custodial parents receive the financial assistance they need to properly care for their child. Whether you need help establishing, modifying, or enforcing payments, our lawyers are available to serve as your responsive advocate.
- Common law marriage: Even if you and your partner forewent the formal wedding ceremony and instead opted for a common law union, you may still face the same legal challenges as standard marriage if you pursue a divorce. Our attorneys can help you regardless.
- Conservatorship and Guardianship: When an adult becomes incapacitated due to injury or illness and that person can longer make decisions for themselves, the Colorado probate court may appoint a guardian or conservator to make decisions on that person’s behalf.
- Divorce: Our attorneys provide comprehensive assistance throughout your entire divorce process. We will help you overcome whatever you encounter as you transition back into single life.
- Domestic violence: Domestic violence is a serious conviction that our firm is ready to handle tactfully and with discretion. The Law Office of Alexandra White, PC has the experience and skill necessary to effectively work your case whether you are a victim of abuse or have been accused of assault.
- Marital agreements: Prenuptial agreements, and the less-acknowledged postnuptial agreements, outline how a married couple will settle assets and finances should they experience a divorce or death. We will help you draft a protective document that accounts for all of your property. Additionally, our lawyers will provide counsel to understand the matters these agreements cannot address, such as child custody or child support, and help you take other steps to protect those aspects of your life through other avenues.
- Paternity: Establishing paternity is important to recognize and preserve a father’s rights, make a mother eligible for necessary assistance, and bring a father-figure into a child’s life. Protect your child and your rights as a parent by working with our paternity attorneys.
- Post-decree divorce modifications: Life happens. Our lawyers can help you address any substantial changes in circumstance, such as job loss, diagnosis of a medical condition, and more, and change your divorce decisions accordingly. We can help you adjust your child support, visitation or custody agreement, and alimony when your previous agreement is unmaintainable.
- Prenuptial and Postnuptial: Whether you are already married or plan to get married, creating a marital agreement can benefit you and your spouse. Although people tend to think of them as romance killers, the fact is that working on this important document with your partner can help you develop a better understanding of what matters most to both of you.
- Property division: When the time comes to deconstruct the life you and your spouse have built together, the division of property can be a point of contention. Luckily, our team can help you approach this separation process outside of the court to reach an agreement on the designation of assets and debts.
- Spousal support: Spousal support, spousal maintenance, and alimony are synonymous terms describing routine payments to or from your ex. These payments, either agreed upon by the couple or decided by the court ruling on the divorce, offer a spouse with less access to wealth and earning potential the ability to maintain a similar quality of life as they had become accustomed to in the marriage.
- Stepparent and second-parent adoption: The Law Office of Alexandra White, PC offers a range of services to protect your family and even expand it. If your partner already has custody of a child, we can help you formally adopt them so you too may have legal rights to remain in their life. Our lawyers offer advice and guidance throughout the entire process.
- Visitation: Parenting time is imperative in the quest to build and preserve a strong bond with one’s child. Trust our attorneys to help you establish visitation agreements that protect your place in your child’s life.

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
