If achieving the best possible outcome in your case means going to trial, we will not hesitate to be your advocate in court before a judge and jury.
Our criminal defense attorneys will hit the ground running. Oftentimes, it can be in your best interest to hire an attorney prior to arrest or directly after. That way, while the police are investigating, our lawyers can do our own investigation. This can head-off a criminal charge altogether or it can provide invaluable evidence we can use in preparing your criminal defense. Our clients often say, “Well, they never read me my rights!” Then our lawyers ask them if they made any statements and they say, “No.” These rights MUST be given ONLY IF you are under arrest and subject to an interrogation (make a statement) by a prosecutor or other party. If no statements were ever made, the fact that the warnings are not given is moot.
Under Colorado family law, alimony can be awarded to a lower-earning spouse if the marriage lasted at least three years. Alimony is not automatically awarded, and a variety of factors will be considered when determining whether spousal support is appropriate. Spousal support is usually a temporary arrangement. The duration of time during which alimony payments are required is calculated based on how long the marriage lasted. Lifelong alimony is only awarded in rare circumstances if the marriage lasted at least 20 years.

If you are facing a divorce, custody battle, or child support or alimony payments that need adjustment, you can count on us to help.
For good reason, courts in Colorado take child abuse cases very seriously. There is nothing more important than protecting children, and adults who harm children should face consequences. However, child abuse is not as black-and-white as you might think. Under Colorado law, the definition of child abuse is quite expansive, and behaviors or parenting styles that some parents consider normal may be considered abusive by others. Additionally, it is not uncommon for child abuse allegations to be made in bad faith. The Dadvocates exist because we know that men face unique challenges in family law and criminal cases. If you are a dad who has been accused of child abuse, we are the law firm that will listen to your story and work to make sure the truth is known. Just like you, we want what is best for your children.
Our domestic violence lawyers understand how criminal charges can affect your family and livelihood. We will handle your case with a high level of sensitivity, compassion, and confidentiality.

We will do everything we can to protect your rights, limit the consequences, and resolve your case in a favorable manner. The state of Colorado pushes domestic abuse cases through the court system as “fast-track” procedures. Because these cases move quickly, an accused father needs a lawyer that will advocate on his behalf and file timely responses to prevent technicalities from affecting the outcome of the case.
In Colorado, it is illegal for the court to consider a parent's sex when making a custody decision. Nevertheless, men can face an uphill battle when they try to secure sole or joint custody of their children.

The Dadvocates exist because we know that men need aggressive, knowledgeable representation in family court. If you are ready to fight for more time with your children, we encourage you to request a consultation with our lawyers.

Debt is considered either marital or separate debt. Marital debts are any debts acquired after marriage but before the date of separation. These may include mortgages, car loans, and credit card bills. Debts incurred before marriage or after separation are called separate debts, and these must typically be paid by the spouse that incurred the debt. Many of the same principles applied to marital assets also apply to marital debts during divorce proceedings. Both property and debt acquired during a marriage are generally assumed to be shared between both parties. While assets tend to be the primary focus during divorce proceedings, debt distribution is of equal importance in a fair resolution.
In Colorado, people are considered to be in "contempt of court" when they fail to comply with a court order (civil contempt) or when they disrupt a legal proceeding (criminal contempt). Contempt of court often comes into play in family law when a parent or ex-spouse fails to pay child support, fails to pay spousal support, or violates a court-ordered parenting agreement. If your co-parent or ex-spouse has violated a court order, filing a contempt of court motion may be your best legal recourse. It can be immensely frustrating when another party fails to comply with a court order. If you think it's time to hold your co-parent or ex-spouse accountable through a contempt of court proceeding, we invite you to request a consultation with the Dadvocates today.

Despite the protections that have been put in place for both parents, it can still be difficult to obtain a child custody and child support agreement that is fair for fathers. Antiquated gender stereotypes and false allegations can affect a dad's ability to obtain an agreement within his means that serves the best interests of the children. To prevent bias in the court system from affecting your case, it is important to hire a child support lawyer. Although the state has set guidelines for child support payments, there are many other factors that affect the monthly amount. Hiring an attorney with a clear understanding of the complexities of these cases is critical to obtaining a good outcome.

Should your child custody case in Colorado become bitterly contested by opposing parties, you may need to call upon a specialized family investigator or mental health professional to work on your behalf. They are trained to look for evidence in ways that judges, lawyers, or yourself may not be able to. The findings of a CFI, or child and family investigator, or PRE, or parental responsibility evaluator, could help protect your rights as a father when it comes to custody agreements, spousal support, keeping your finances safe, and disproving untrue allegations of abuse, negligence, or criminal activity that have been made against you.
