Amanda was amazing and helped me through one of the worst experiences of my life. Thankful for her expertise!

I hired McKinney and Associates for a very long and hard divorce. I live out of state so all my contact was done over the phone of by email. But Brett was an amazing lawyer. He fought long and hard for me and we won everything I asked for. Now I can start my life as a single mother of 5 away from all the issues in Colorado. Brett was very easy to work with and explained everything to me in a way I could understand. I highly recommend Brett at McKinney and Associates.

They where a prayer answered! From day one the whole staff was supportive. They are one step above the rest. If you are looking for Family Law no need to look any further. Our family is now whole. We received full custody of our awesome grandson!

Amanda is an amazing person and attorney. She could very well be the best you can get. I've had a high conflict divorce/custody battle and she really went to bat for me. It's hard for me to describe the degree of positive impact she has had on me and my children's life.

Erin gordan is awesome

Brett has been amazing in helping us through a DHS issue with a mother who is an active drug user. Having to go to Canon City for proceedings made it difficult to retain an attorney. Brett really cares about the future of these children and has been so amazing in helping their father navigate at very difficult and situation. The end goal is keeping these kids safe and giving them a great future. McKinny & Associates (specifically Brett Chalmers) really understands this and has fought hard to keep these kids safe!!

Amanda is a great attorney and handle my case very professionally. I received respect and my case was closed fairly quickly due to her fast response.

Roughly 6 months ago I was looking around for a lawyer to assist me in a child custody case and was on a small budget when I came upon the Gasper Law Group in Colorado Springs. I had met with Amanda and decided that while it would hurt me financially to hire a lawyer, in the end, I may come out of this hearing on a positive note. My ex was doing everything she could to keep my kids from me as well as take as much money from me as possible so she wouldn't have to work, and after first meeting with Amanda, I thought she would be aggressive and helpful - at the very least, try to help me retain my basic rights as a father. Needless to say that Amanda and her staff did very little outside of filing some very basic forms with the court. Often it would take weeks for her or her staff to respond to my phone calls and emails, and much of the case progression such as dates and timelines I had to hear from either my ex or my ex's lawyer - NOT my own attorney. I felt like she didn't attempt to come to an agreement during required mediation at all. Also, in the two times we met face to face, much of the conversation we spoke of was regarding topics OTHER than my case (such as her personal life) - to which I was no doubt charged for. In any case, very little was done to represent me and after being $7000 in debt and nothing to show for it, I felt as though my attorney was doing what she could to avoid resolution and proceed to a hearing which would ultimately cost more money. I told her I didn't have the money to go to court and that we had to reach an amicable settlement out of court. Her response was that my ex was going to get everything she asked for and if I didn't have more money to make it to trial, there was no point in continuing. Out of money, options, and patience, I let her go and was forced to represent myself. Obviously this isn't a smart idea and I learned firsthand of the parental prejudices in the judicial system we hear so much about. I lost all rights to my kids - EVERYTHING - and was even forced to pay MORE money. My wife now gets nearly $3000 a month from me (a military member on a small budget) , and I feel that Amanda and her staff really let me down. I feel like I threw away so much money and received absolutely nothing in return. I wouldn't recommend this lawyer.
