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.

We started our journey with another attorney with little effort. We made a bold decision to change firms. Jeremy was able to get an agreement in place which helped us not going to court. Not only did this save time and money, but it also took off all the stress from our situation. I highly recommend Shufflebarger Law Office. We know where to turn in the future.

Leah Wolf & Stephanie McMullen are awesome to work with and very responsive. I never felt alone throughout the process and they truly care about their clients.

Leah Wolf and her team are some of the most amazing people I know. They are kind and empathetic to your situation while also tough and ruthless in the court setting. If you are a woman who feels as though they are in despair with the entire divorce process, Leah will help to pull you out of the trenches and help you win your case. I cannot say enough good things about this firm

I cannot express how thankful I was for Wolf and Associates during my divorce. Leah and team were there for me from day 1 like family. Divorce is so hard and they took care of me from the beginning, found me support where I needed it, and felt personally invested in what was best for me and my kids until it was over. When you hire this team, you become part of their “Wolfpack”

On behalf of Spiro Palmer; I was in a car accident in 2023, and my car was totaled and I was severely injured. I called the VanMevern Law Firm, and my attorney Catharine Fullerton and her assistant Amy Selcke were professional, personal, and reassuring throughout the process. They were truly understanding and supportive of my circumstances, and ensured I received the compensation I deserved. They did an outstanding job representing me, and kept me up to date with weekly communications. In the end, I was very pleased with my results. I would highly recommend them. - Spiro Palmer

Scurlock Family Law, LLC is the only reason I sleep at night. Calls are returned same day..sometimes same hour(most times) . They will return calls/emails on weekends if needed..The way they take care of you at Scurlock Family Law is second to none! Knowing I have such a knowledgeable and hardworkingcounsel at my reach makes me feel like anything is possible, and that I can relax knowing my every option has been taken into consideration and the best choice for my situation has been made. This practice has gone above and beyond more times than I can count. They treat my daughter and I like we are family and truly care.. Scurlock Family Law, LLC. is ALL you need. They will fight tooth and nail for you to get you the justice you deserve-all you have to do is make a simple phone call and they will handle the rest.

I had an excellent experience with Fort Collins Family Law. They were incredibly responsive and professional throughout my case. Ms. Lamborne took the time to thoroughly understand my situation and what was important to me. She offered several approaches and developed a plan of action that resulted in a very positive mutual outcome.
Ms. Dandeneu was also very responsive and organized, ensuring seamless communication. Invoices and expenses were clear and agreeable, with no unexpected charges or surprises. Their legal advice was knowledgeable, and they clearly defined the positive and negative implications of our strategy.
I was very happy working with the team and would strongly recommend them to a friend. I will continue to have them represent me without hesitation going forward.

Brooke is very straight forward and will be honest yet compassionate! She is strong and forthright. Sean is the easiest most empathetic person I have met in a lawyers office. They both understand the law and will be honest with you. When you feel integrity is missing look no further than this office.I was disappointed with Harvey Skees. He did absolutely nothing to help my daughter and grand daughters. However, I am told he no longer works there.
In the future, I will seek to hire Brooke Alexander again! Sean, a special thanks for your kindness, understanding and authentic manner!
Sincerely,
Emilia

I hired Brooke after having two other attorneys. Brooke is extremely knowledgeable about family law and absolutely tenacious in pursuit of the best interest of the children and me. She is incredibly insightful as to the reality of what is going on in my case. She reads between the lines and is right on the money. She is quick, smart and incredibly talented.
Brooke is one part of a team. The office of Alexander and Ewert is an amazing duo. These two offset each other perfectly. Might possibly be the best team in town.
Hire Brooke and get her what she needs then sit back and let her do what she does, because she is amazing at it. She will hold the OP feet to the fire, diligently reads everything and follows up with the OP. A+ attorney
PS I would not want my ex to have Brooke as her lawyer.

I was with Brooke for a child custody case that lasted for far to long and in the end she sat down with me, my sons father and his lawyer and we got it all hashed out. It was amazing to me that she took the time to set it up and work it out with me. She also is accepting payments instead of asking for every thing now. I honestly cant give this woman enough praise.

I hired Mr. Ridgely to help with a bankruptcy and a divorce. He helped me navigate through the both cases and figure out which to do first. He was very knowledgeable and helpful in both cases. He was always professional and available to answer any questions I had. He was kind and compassionate during a very difficult time in my life. I would recommend Mr. Ridgely and if I had to, use his services again.

I first contacted Thomas Ridgely in 2018 as I was going through a very uncomfortable divorce. My ex-wife's family had a lot of money and power behind and it was just me I felt defeated already. So at my mother's insistence I lookup up an attorney to consult with I was lucky enough to get Thomas Ridgely, it completely changed my outlook. It was very honest my first consultation didn't cost me a cent he told me what my options were after I hired him he got to work immediately he was easily accessible always return my phone calls. I'm disabled and he often made arrangements to be able to meet me at my convenience it was a long drawn-out process a division of property. Long story short is he checked them at every turn and soon my ex was willing to settle without even having to go to court anymore. I can honestly say that he made a very big difference in my life I would not be where I am now if not for Thomas Ridgely

I hired Mr. Ridgely to handle an insurance claim for me after a car accident. He took care of it quickly and got more for me than the insurance company initially offered.
He has also done some child custody work for me in the past following a separation. I've been very pleased with his attention to my legal matters.

Mr. Shufflebarger was most helpful during my divorce that spanned two continents. Even though there was a big time difference, he was reliable and diligent in his work and communication. Knowing that he had my back and fought for me made all the difference. Should I ever need more legal help, he will be my first choice.

Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
- Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
