International Child Custody Dispute
I hired Nicole Vette again in 2021 for a complex paternity case involving an international custody dispute with a young child. Nicole and her team of experienced attorneys (Melanie Kalmin and Erica Rubin) are always there to represent you and protect your legal rights. They are a pleasure to work with, get the job done and are professional. There are many lawyers out there to choose from and family law matters are often very difficult to go through. Fortunately, the right lawyer can make all the difference. I cannot stress enough the importance of doing your due diligence when selecting your legal team for these often life changing / transitional matters. Most family law attorneys don't have extensive trial experience. Unfortunately, in the event your case doesn't settle at mediation, you definitely don't want to end up with an attorney who cannot prepare for trial effectively or even properly question witnesses. Thankfully, Nicole has tremendous trial experience which is an invaluable asset. She is also a seasoned mediator. She attempts to help her clients resolve their disputes in a non-acrimonious fashion. Nicole is truly a superstar lawyer who is smart, thorough and creative. Her boundless expertise, wealth of knowledge, and ability to clearly communicate with all parties involved make her your best advocate. She worked tirelessly with her team on my case. If you want the best chances to be satisfied with the end result and go home knowing that no one could have fought harder, longer, or more passionately for you, then Nicole Vette and her team are the lawyers you most certainly want on your side. I sincerely urge anyone needing any, but especially sensitive family law services to contact Nicole Vette and the team at Vette Law. They will without a doubt keep your best interests and wishes a priority while delivering exceptional and compassionate representation. Thank you again for everything Nicole, Melanie, Erica and the other members of her staff.

A Truly Great Lawyer
I once read, “Good lawyers are thought of as "capable," and are expected to do a good job. Great lawyers own the client's problem, and engender a belief that they will do everything possible to help the client succeed. Nicole is indeed a great lawyer. I was so impressed with her knowledge of the law, compassion and strength. In my opinion, she is the future of law and the standard to which all lawyers are measured.

Nicole is the BEST!
I was so blessed to have Nicole Vette represent me during my divorce a couple years ago. She is an outstanding attorney who was so knowledgeable about family law and who fought diligently for me and my family. Nicole was not only an outstanding attorney, she also showed a level of care and concern that made me feel so supported when I needed support the most. Over the years Nicole has checked in with me to see how life is going and is always available for a conversation regarding current issues I may be experiencing. I would recommend Nicole Vette a thousand times over, she is the absolute best!

outstanding in every aspect
I have known nicole for several years who has represented me in a very complex and delicate family law matter. Nicole is by far one of the most distinguished, competent and well regarded attorneys in the local family law community. In addition to being an extremely zealous advocate for her clients, as a mother she also takes a personal vested interest approach in the outcome of her client's cases to a level that is second to none.

Custody Dispute
Nicole represented me in a custody dispute. I truly believe that if I would have went with another attorney, my case wouldn't have went as smoothly! Nicole is not only very knowledgeable in law, but she is also very honest, caring, and personal. During my child custody dispute, I not only had someone fighting for what was in my childs best interests, but I also had a person who truly cared about the outcome and what was best for my family. I can not thank Nicole enough for everything she has done!

Helpful, knowledgeable and honest
In a time that could have been the worst (and it was close), it was great to have Nicole on my side and there to help guide me through everything. She is very sharp and knows the law and what she's doing! If she hadn't left Colorado, I'd still be working with her on some issues. Happy to have had her in my court!
