Karen helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. I found her very easy to talk to and felt she really listened to my concerns. She represented my wishes to the court and I'm completely satisfied with the outcome.

H.K. | Denver

Karen was prompt, approachable, knowledgeable, and professional. She guided us through the adoption process and made the daunting task of creating wills for our family easy and seamless.

C.D. | Wheat Ridge

I have worked with attorneys in the past, but none have shown the level of caring and compassion towards me as a client as Karen. During my recent separation, Karen offered much more than legal advice. She made it a point to listen to my hardships and provided reassurance when I was feeling down about my situation. She even helped me find a realtor to sell my home quickly. I would not have been able to land on my feet as well as I have without Karen’s guidance and support.

Karen has been a friend and ally during this difficult period and I can’t thank her enough!

S.L. | Golden

I hired Karen to handle my case to adopt my stepson in 2015. When I needed an attorney to handle my custody case, she was the first person I called. She listened to what I wanted and needed and advised me of what we could do. Because of her I was able to get 50/50 custody of my kids. I highly recommend Karen to anyone that needs a family law attorney.

23 Sep: You Know You Need a Lawyer if: Your Child Support Order is Five Years Old

Child support in Colorado is determined by a formula. It uses the parties’ incomes to calculate a base amount of support required for each parent and includes adjustments for health insurance, day care, and other agreed-upon expenses. The goal is for the parents to share the costs of raising the children in an equitable way.
