Why You Need a Longmont Divorce Lawyer
Experienced divorce attorneys handle issues related to custody, spousal maintenance, and property daily and have seen their share of post-divorce disputes arise.

They can help prevent an issue before it even occurs and assist you during mediation to negotiate an agreement that fulfills everyone’s needs.
Conflicts We Can Help You Solve
- Allocation of parental responsibilities/child custody: The term “child custody” is no longer used in the Colorado statutes, and in its place is “allocation of parental responsibilities.” There are two main components to parental responsibilities; one is the division of parenting time, and the other is the sharing of decision-making. We will ensure the courts consider the best needs of your child when determining how parental responsibilities will be allocated.
- Child support: We will review proposed child support orders and confirm the calculations are based on all relevant income, as well as Colorado’s Child Support Guidelines.
- Spousal maintenance or alimony: Depending on the circumstances of each party, one spouse may be ordered to pay spousal maintenance. We will help you determine if you or your ex-spouse qualifies for spousal maintenance and, if so, how much should be paid and for how long.
- Asset division. Colorado is an “equitable distribution” state, meaning that in a divorce, the court will allocate property between the two spouses equitably and fairly. However, that does not imply a 50/50 split. This can lead to complexities based on the unique set of circumstances of each case.
- Post-divorce enforcement and modifications: We can help you take legal action if your ex-spouse is not following the terms of your divorce decree or judgment. Alternatively, if your family’s circumstances have unforeseeably changed, we can help you address modifications of your divorce decree.
