I suffered a spine injury as the result of a T-bone car crash, the other driver at fault. We got nothing but gutter-ball offers from her insurance company. What you hear on the radio is true – the insurance companies simply will not take your case seriously until you file a suit. This is where I was glad to have Ken and his team on my side. The burden to convince a jury of my losses lies with me the plaintiff, which then requires conducting extensive research, gathering and organizing supporting documents. After Ken submitted all of this material during the pre-trial discovery the insurance company decided to make a reasonable settlement offer.

Clyde ensured I understood every detail, offering trustworthy guidance throughout the process by making calls, sending emails, and offering overall guidance/support. Kudos to April and Kenah for their prompt responses to my emails and phone calls no matter what the issue was, making me feel like Family Law Group was more than just a name—they treated me like family.

Jake and his team were incredibly helpful after I was in a serious car accident caused by another driver. I had no idea what to expect and Jake walked me through everything with clear expectations. Jake and his team provided support, were very knowledgeable, and made it clear they care about their clients. His paralegal, Nicol, provided resources for medical care and transport services when I had trouble getting to appointments and I always had a quick email reply to any questions. I went from being completely despondent after the accident to feeling hopeful for a good outcome. Ultimately, I got a really great settlement and I have Jake and his team to thank for that.

I hired Katie for my child custody case and she was nothing short of amazing throughout the entire process. She kept me informed and in the loop through each step from opposing counsel emails to letting me know when our work was filed. She listened to my concerns and did her very best to vouch for me. Katie went the extra mile in assuring I was prepared for trial by reviewing questions I would be asked in court and even took time outside of office hours to do so. She was honest and open about her rates, there was never a surprise in charges, and also tried to help me save money when she could. When you have an attorney it’s easy to say I want this and that and expect things to go your way, but Katie made sure I was informed if something was unlikely and gave me recommendations on what I could do differently. With Katie by my side, I felt confident during this difficult journey and I highly recommend her services for anyone in search of an attorney!

I have worked with Jeremy since filing for divorce in 2015. Jeremy listened to my concerns and then gave me practical advice on how to proceed based on his experience with Larimer County, divorce and child support laws, and what is best for children and the coparents involved in these cases. If you are willing to listen to someone who has seen a lot, put aside your pride, and do whats going to be best for your family then you want an advisor like Jeremy. He didn't tell me what I wanted to hear he told me what I needed to hear about the reality of the various situations I faced. Thanks to Jeremy I have made it to the emancipation of my youngest child without losing my mind, dignity, or children.

Annie and her team led us through our case with personal care from the initial intake to final hearing. Her attention to case details is impeccable and fact recollection in critical situations always on point. Opposing counsel was formidable but still could not permeate her expertise and wisdom, she is a master at her craft. Annie’s composure and sustained diligence throughout the case was an inspiration. Annie is more than an exceptional attorney; she provided a pillar of confidence needed at our darkest hour.

I recently went through a company called Marble Law. They assigned Tammy and her team as my representation. At first, they seemed very helpful and interested in helping with my case. After providing them all the information within minutes of their requests and receiving no notice of the information being received, I noticed they were not taking my case seriously. I would call for updates regularly. I would be given updates and timelines that never were met. Maybe it was just poor communication in her firm or maybe it was her team really had no idea what to tell me, so stories were made up to keep me hoping something was going to move forward. When I did call to confront them about what was going on and that the level of communication and unprofessionalism was unacceptable, she immediately sent me an email stating "I understand that you are not pleased with the services you have received from this office. I apologize for the delay and believe it may be best to set you up with another counsel from Marble. You should hear from them soon to arrange for a different counsel to assist you." No explanation on why there was a month-long delay for a simple motion for Contempt of Court to be drawn up and sent for my review, just a sorry and basically I'll pawn you off to Marble and let them deal with it. I strongly do not recommend this attorney or team if you are looking for a responsive and motivated group in any case.

This immigration service is 5-stars. Erin Williams runs this business. She and her staff are great. The location (near Orchard and Quebec) is easy to access but it can be a little difficult to find. It's part of a larger complex that has several different offices (hers is building 4) so give yourself a few extra minutes to find it the first time. I had a lot of questions about the U.S. immigration process especially how to best maximize the probability of getting a visa for my friend who lives in China. I went with an initial 1-hr consult and got good solid answers for all of my questions. Erin really know the business. Afterwards, when talking with my friend, a few other questions came up and I arranged a follow-up "phone" consult with her that pretty much finished up every question I have. When the time comes, and my friend and I hopefully marry, I will obviously contact Erin again for all the details regarding spousal and/or fiancee visas. Finally, you won't find a friendlier person or staff to work with.

Elizabeth Howard's firm was our guiding light when our brother became terminally ill in a hospital in Colorado. Since my sister and I were both living in two different states, we had limited time to spend with him in CO. My brother did not have a will of any kind and we sadly had to return to our home states without his getting one completed. From Ohio, I blindly chose an attorney in the Denver area from a long list and called Elizabeth for help. She went to see my brother in the hospital that day and found him willing and able in completing a will the very next day! After our brother passed away, she worked with us throughout the probate process and her patience, kindness and efficiency proved to be outstanding.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Jason, his assistant Lonie, and Inaki from the call center. From start to finish, they made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Jason is an outstanding lawyer. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication are truly unmatched. He took the time to explain every step of the process, ensuring I fully understood my options and felt confident in the decisions we made together. His ability to handle my case with such precision and care was incredibly reassuring. Lonie, Jason’s assistant, was equally amazing. She was always available to answer my questions and kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes. Her organizational skills and friendly demeanor made working with her a pleasure. Inaki, the call center representative, deserves a special mention for being so helpful and courteous. He ensured my initial queries were addressed promptly and directed me to the right resources, setting the tone for an excellent client experience. This team goes above and beyond to provide top-notch service. If you’re looking for a lawyer who genuinely cares about your case and has a supportive team to back them up, Jason, Lonie, and Inaki are the ones to trust. I couldn’t have asked for a better legal experience. Highly recommended! Talal H

I have been a client of Brighter Day Law for over 3 years now. I am extremely happy with the team I was assigned. Sydney Bierwirth has helped me with all the trials and tribulations that comes with a divorce and the constant fight for custody. I cannot thank her enough for the outstanding support and guidance she has provided during such a challenging time in my life. Navigating divorce and custody battles is never easy, but her expertise, compassion, and professionalism made all the difference. From the very beginning when she took over my case, she took the time to truly understand my situation, ensuring I felt heard and supported. Her knowledge of family law is exceptional, and she was always prepared, detail-oriented, and strategic in her approach. What stood out most was her ability to balance assertiveness with empathy. She fought for the best outcome for me and my children while being incredibly compassionate and patient throughout the process. Due to my team's hard work and dedication to their craft, I was able to achieve a resolution that felt fair and just. I'm truly grateful for everything they've done for my family and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of a family attorney. The battle is never over, but I am confident moving forward with Brighter Day Law at my side.

Everything went as Danny L. said it would. I received the minimum possible punishment. Other moving violations were dropped, and Danny stayed with me the entire way, recommending actions I could take that would have a positive impact on my ultimate decision. He clearly knows the system and is well respected.

The Right Law Group was very helpful from the day I contacted them for assistance. My legal team, Nick and Jimmy were always available when I needed an answer for the entire DUI process. They were extremely positive and always had an answer or would find what I needed. Their attention to my case helped with receiving a deferred sentence and the minimum for probation requirements.

I can't express enough gratitude for the care and support I received from Arra at Right Law Group. Although I was unable to afford representation at the time, Arra went above and beyond to ensure I explored every possible resource to secure legal assistance. Her genuine compassion and persistence in checking on me truly stood out. It’s rare to encounter someone so dedicated to helping others, even without a direct benefit to them. Thank you, Arra, for being such a kind and caring individual. You made a challenging time a little easier to navigate, and I truly appreciate you!

Edra was recommended to me by a friend when I was going through a tough divorce. I can not say enough amazing words to recommend this attorney. She was professional and trustworthy during a time when I needed guidance and strength. Edra has years of experience and it shows. She is organized, sticks to the facts, and believes strongly in a fair trial. I have recommended her often through the past few years and will continue to do so.

Heather is very excellent in what she does! In my previous case she got me alimony, child support and the parenting plan that I had purposed. She is very organized and just knows exactly what to say and do at the right times. There were a lot of things that I would have never thought of looking into like my ex-husbands income and she was on top of it and she ended up finding out that he was not disclosing all of his income. She made sure that I submitted everything timely and was great at communicating with me at all times. She ensured that in regards to a house that he was living in that he was ordered to refinance in his own name or short sale it and the vehicle he had that he was to refinance in his own name. I was also awarded half of his 401k, stocks and retirement that he had. Heather is an excellent lawyer and I would recommend her to anyone going through this.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Michael Juba on a landlord-tenant issue, and I am thoroughly impressed with his expertise and professionalism. Michael expertly navigated interactions with opposing counsel, skillfully reading the nuances of their approach and firmly refusing to take the bait. His strategic and composed handling of the situation led to a complete resolution, and I am 100% satisfied with the outcome. Michael’s dedication and adeptness make him an outstanding real estate attorney. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of legal assistance in this field!

We selected Michael Juba from among other lawyers because on our first phone call, he listened thoughtfully and carefully to our situation and concerns. His response was extremely kind and patient—exactly what we needed in our distress. From that first contact all the way to the end of the trial, he gave us confidence that he knew what he was doing, and he patiently taught us what we needed to know every step of the way. As we came to know him—and later, his partner Daniel McGarvey—we found both to be compassionate, patient, hard-working, thorough, wise, and very smart. As our case unfolded, and it became evident that we were confronted with a cruel, incompetent, and stubborn prosecutor, Mr. Juba and Mr. McGarvey doubled down and took every step possible to bring the case to a close before ending up in a trial. During the trial, we learned the extent to which Mr. Juba and Mr. McGarvey had prepared the case. They studied every angle, obtained every possible form of evidence, brought important legal precedence to the judge, and shaped their arguments clearly and professionally. We kept reminding each other how grateful we were that we had the best lawyers possible. The year-long preparation and trial was a painful experience, but Mr. Juba and Mr. McGarvey were constantly comforting us as well as preparing for their arguments. We won the case decisively, and we hope no other family will have to endure what we faced, but if they do, we know that Mr. Juba and Mr. McGarvey will offer comfort, wisdom, and the highest legal skill.

Greg was very understanding of my situation and saw the case through to the end. I was very pleased with the ruling. He later also represented me in a court hearing for contempt and one for modification of child support and maintenance and I was also pleased with the outcome. His rates are very fair and he is very trustworthy as an attorney. I highly recommend Mr Ortiz and feel like the work he did for my case was the deciding factor in getting a fair ruling from the court.

I was in a very difficult divorce where I had just lost jurisdiction. Thus, the case was going to be handled in Colorado, rather than Virginia, where I live. My attorney in Virginia was incredibly bad, and I wasted a lot of money on that short case alone (I shouldn't have lost). I was referred to Greg by a colleague of my father's from another state. I am incredibly grateful that I found Greg. One would assume that having a divorce attorney located literally across the country would be frustrating. It was not, in any way. The distance could have been a mile, and it would not have been any different. He not only kept me constantly informed, but he was also incredibly accessible. While most attorneys are available during business hours, or by phone and email, Greg was even accessible via text. Who does that?! Thus, if I had an emergency, or quick advice, he was swift to answer. And it's not like he was charging me for every little bit of communication. He was honest, and he was good. Greg listened to my concerns and reviewed the case honestly. He didn't pull punches, and he was always candid with me about the likelihood of winning. He kept me even keeled, gave me excellent advice, and above all, he was wise in everything he did. Wisdom is an extremely rare trait to have. He has it in abundance. It's not knowledge. It's not smarts. It's different. In the end, I won! It's difficult enough being a male in a divorce/custody case. It's even more difficult when you're in the military and live in Virginia. But I won. And while some things dropped in our laps, I owe my win to Greg. I am forever grateful to him.

He never leaves you guessing and openly shares information he receives from the other attorney's involved. One thing that I really liked about Bill is that throughout my entire case I always understood what the worst case scenario could be. He never once mislead me to believe we would win the case or any given dispute would be in my favor. I valued his transparency. He knows what he is doing when it comes to family law. I would certainly recommend him to any of my friends or family that are going through a difficult divorce.

Meggin Rutherford and her paralegal, Sarah Duff, are compassionate professionals who supported me through one of the most difficult times of my life. They successfully represented me in my divorce from an abusive narcissist who thought he was a lawyer despite being kicked out of law school and losing all of his frivolous lawsuits against perceived enemies. Needless to say, he was a nightmare to work with, but Meggin and Sarah did not put up with any of his nonsense. Eventually, he realized he was up against experienced professionals who would not be bullied by him, so he hired an attorney, which made the process easier for us. I came out of the divorce with what I wanted and ready to move forward with my life thanks to the excellent work of Meggin and her team!

She was always available when I reached out and response time was quick for each inquiry I had. She made the awful process so much easier for me by being informative, available, and knowledgeable. She also followed up with me post-final hearing and I would recommend her to anyone finding themselves in this unfortunate life event.

What a Child Custody Lawyer Can Do for You

A child custody lawyer specializes in helping parents navigate legal matters related to the custody and care of their children, particularly in the context of divorce, separation, or other family disputes. These lawyers assist with determining custody arrangements, drafting parenting plans, and advocating for your rights in court. They also help resolve disputes over physical custody (where the child lives), legal custody (who makes decisions for the child), visitation rights, and modifications to existing custody orders.

Whether you're going through a divorce or need to change an existing custody arrangement, a child custody lawyer can help you understand your rights and protect your child's best interests throughout the legal process.

When Should I Hire a Child Custody Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a child custody lawyer in several situations, especially when disputes arise or complex legal issues affect your parental rights. Some common reasons to hire a child custody lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: If you're going through a divorce or separation and need to establish custody and visitation arrangements, a lawyer can help ensure the custody order reflects your child's best interests.
  • Disputed custody cases: If you and the other parent cannot agree on custody or visitation terms, a lawyer can advocate for your rights in court and help you develop a strong case.
  • Modification of custody orders: If you need to change an existing custody arrangement due to changes in circumstances (e.g., relocation, changes in the child’s needs), a lawyer can help file a modification request.
  • Parental alienation: If the other parent is interfering with your relationship with your child, a lawyer can help address these issues through legal action.
  • Domestic violence or abuse: If there is a history of domestic violence or abuse, a lawyer can help protect you and your child by requesting restraining orders and advocating for appropriate custody arrangements.
  • Grandparent or third-party custody: If you are a grandparent or another relative seeking custody or visitation rights, a lawyer can guide you through the legal process.
  • Paternity disputes: In cases where paternity is in question, a lawyer can assist with establishing or challenging paternity, which may affect custody and visitation rights.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help protect your parental rights and ensure that the custody arrangement is in your child's best interests.

What Does a Child Custody Lawyer Do?

A child custody lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents resolve custody disputes and secure favorable custody arrangements for their children. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Filing custody petitions: Helping you file the necessary paperwork to request custody or visitation rights and ensuring all legal procedures are followed.
  • Negotiating custody agreements: Assisting in negotiating custody and visitation arrangements, often working toward a mutually beneficial parenting plan without going to court.
  • Representing you in court: If you and the other parent cannot agree on custody terms, representing you in court by presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
  • Drafting parenting plans: Helping you draft a comprehensive parenting plan that outlines the schedule for physical custody, decision-making responsibilities, and visitation.
  • Handling child support issues: Assisting with related issues such as child support, ensuring that financial obligations are properly calculated and enforced.
  • Modifying custody orders: Helping you request a modification from the court if you need to change an existing custody arrangement due to significant life changes.
  • Mediating custody disputes: Acting as a mediator to help both parents reach an agreement on custody and visitation without the need for litigation.

How Are Child Custody Lawyers Paid?

Child custody lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case, the time involved, and the nature of the legal work. Common payment methods include:

  • Hourly rate: Most child custody lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer's experience and location. The total cost depends on the time spent preparing documents, negotiating, and representing you in court.
  • Flat fee: For simple custody matters or uncontested custody agreements, some lawyers may offer a flat fee for specific services, such as drafting a parenting plan or filing a custody petition.
  • Retainer: Many lawyers require an upfront retainer fee, which is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount varies based on the expected complexity and duration of the case.
  • Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers may offer reduced fees or pro bono (free) services for clients with limited financial means, particularly in cases involving domestic violence or other serious issues.

It’s important to discuss fees and payment arrangements with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are included.

How Much Does a Child Custody Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a child custody lawyer depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, whether it’s contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:

  • Uncontested custody cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and any negotiations.
  • Contested custody cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $40,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the issues, the need for expert testimony, and the time spent in litigation.
  • Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or complex custody disputes.
  • Mediation services: If both parents agree to work through mediation, costs typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 or more for the mediation process.

Always ask for a clear cost estimate during your consultation to ensure that you understand the total legal fees and payment structure.

Top Questions to Ask a Child Custody Lawyer

Before hiring a child custody lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Some key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with child custody cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your case involves complex issues like domestic violence, relocation, or paternity disputes.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees for certain services, or requires a retainer, and ask for an estimate of the total cost.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including potential challenges and expected outcomes.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Inquire about the expected timeline from filing the petition to reaching an agreement or going to trial.
  5. Will you personally handle my case?
    Ensure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court.
  6. Can we pursue mediation or alternative dispute resolution?
    Ask whether the lawyer recommends mediation or other forms of dispute resolution to avoid a lengthy court battle.

How to Check the Credibility of a Child Custody Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable child custody lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and experience:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and child custody cases.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge the lawyer’s professionalism and success in child custody matters.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on custody cases.
  • Check for certifications: Look for lawyers who are board-certified in family law or have memberships in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML) or local family law sections.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a child custody lawyer, come prepared with relevant documents and information:

  • Court orders or existing custody agreements: Bring copies of any existing custody or visitation orders for the lawyer to review.
  • Communication with the other parent: Provide copies of emails, texts, or letters regarding custody, visitation, or disputes.
  • List of your child’s needs: Prepare a list of your child’s specific needs, such as medical care, education, and extracurricular activities.
  • Timeline of the case: Outline key events related to your custody case, including changes in living situations or parental involvement.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the custody process, legal fees, and the lawyer’s strategy for your case.

By being well-prepared, you can help the lawyer assess your situation effectively and receive the best possible advice for protecting your rights and your child’s well-being.
