Colorado Family Law

Our Client-Focused Approach to Family Law

Among all of the legal concerns someone may face in their lives, family law cases are uniquely personal. A divorce or child custody dispute will impact family and relatives, and the decisions you make now will affect you and your children for years to come.

We, at the Law Office of Heather Mitchell, understand these issues, and we want to help. Our client-focused approach to family law means that we take the time to get to know you. We listen to you. We want to hear your concerns and goals, so that we can carefully examine the details of your case (special needs, finances, property, etc.). Then we work with you to resolve your family law issue in a way that protects the emotional, physical and financial well-being of you and your children.

Advocating for Children During and After Divorce

Child custody and parenting plans can often be the most trying aspect of a divorce; and if the divorce is contentious, kids can easily be caught in the middle of a situation they have very little choice in, or control over.

Colorado courts require that child custody decisions must be in the best interests of children. Both parents, fathers and mothers, in most cases, should be equally involved in their kids’ lives where possible.

At the Law Office of Heather Mitchell, we vigorously believe in advocating for children, in both the approaches we use and in our desired outcomes. We first strive for amicable negotiations whenever possible and while we are skilled in and prepared to pursue litigation if necessary, a negotiated custody agreement is almost always preferable.

If you feel the well-being of your children should be first and foremost in any negotiations during and after a divorce, then call the Law Office of Heather Mitchell. 719-494-7339
