Best Family Lawyer in Boulder County

After my wife and I agreed to divorce, I was severely stressed and had trouble sleeping. I spent the next few days searching online for a family law attorney, and interviewed the three most promising candidates. I knew upon speaking with Gary Pulitzer of Pulitzer Family Law that I had found the rig...ht attorney to represent me, and I retained him on the spot. It was the best decision I could have made, and my stress levels dropped immediately. From our first conversation, it was obvious that Gary is an expert in family law, with an affinity for my type of case, which focused on financial issues. Gary quickly, clearly, and accurately outlined the issues in my case, and how I could expect the process to unfold. He took care to listen and thoroughly understand my situation. Throughout the process he communicated clearly, kept me informed, and was proactive in moving the case forward on a timely basis. Gary is personable, reassuring, hardworking, well-prepared, and exceptionally effective. As a result, our settlement fully protected my interests and exceeded my expectations, while also being fair to my former spouse. Gary is a pleasure to work with and extremely competent. I could not have selected a better attorney, and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone going through a divorce.

Excellent

I would recommend Gary to anyone going through a divorce. He is professional, his experience shows, and he has always looked out for my best interests. He fights for what is fair and just. He was my third lawyer in my divorce (who I hired after reading someone else's 5-star review) and I'm so grat...eful to have him on my side.

Excellent law firm

Gary and Tracie at Pulitzer Family Law were a pleasure to work with. Gary is highly knowledgeable regarding family and divorce law. As opposed to unscrupulous attorneys that use underhanded tactics to try to win their cases, Gary and his team operate by the book with a high level of integrity, expert...ise, and strategic planning. In my case, Gary was able to successfully overcome a number of issues and we were able to reach a fair and peaceful settlement.

Review

April 17, 2021 Gary Pulitzer Letter of Recommendation Dear Mr. Gary Pulitzer, I engaged the services of Pulitzer Family Law in 2017 with a very difficult divorce case. I highly recommend Pulitzer family law and attorney Gary Pulitzer for your divorce action. I brought a very difficult and chall...enging divorce case to Pulitzer family Law that required extensive legal knowledge regarding divorce actions involving elderly persons and difficult issues regarding marital property. Mr. Gary Pulitzer demonstrated is extensive knowledge, excellent case preparation and an outstanding presentation at the court hearing that resulted in my winning the settlement and saving me thousands of dollars in frivolous marital property claims. Mr. Gary Pulitzer is highly recommended by me for any divorce actions that may lead to a court hearing, where Mr. Pulitzer demonstrates his superior legal abilities. Warm regards, Fred Kahl Pulitzer Family Law Client

Solid Legal Representation

Attorney Pulitzer is an experienced family law attorney, practicing in Colorado for over 20 years. Mr. Pulitzer represented me as the respondent in my divorce case back in August, 2009. At that time, Mr. Pulitzer suggested and I agreed to a mediator, and we were able to quickly finalize the divor...ce settlement. My impression at that time was that Mr. Pulitzer was fair, straight-forward, and realistic in his approach to divorce settlement. He is thoughtful, carefully choosing his words and being terse, and straight to the point both in his oral and written communications. His costs are average and not onerous. I am pleased to write this review, because in my divorce settlement, Mr. Pulitzer included a "cohabitation clause" stipulation, exactly specifying the conditions needed to be met in order to terminate alimony. In May of 2012, I once again contacted Mr. Pulitzer for I thought those conditions now existed. We met, and he then proceeded to call an experienced private investigator for the necessary surveillance work to build our case. Over the next few months we gathered enough evidence to show that my ex-wife was cohabitating. With that, Mr. Pulitzer carefully advised me to stop alimony payments in September 2012. There was of course, marked resistance on part of my ex - wife and her legal counsel, but Mr. Pulitzer was calm and professional through it all. From September to December 2012, Mr. Pulitzer was able to successfully defend our position that the cohabitation clause was met, and alimony should be terminated. He successfully prevented my ex-wife from garnishing my wages at my work-place. He successfully defended me against a contempt of court motion on part of my ex-wife. Finally, in December of 2012, he successfully defended me in court. Mr. Pulitzer was absolutely phenomenal in court, winning the case, and having the alimony permanently terminated. Even through all of that, he attempted to make a settlement agreement with my ex-wife, giving her multiple chances to agree to an out of court settlement, but when that was finally exhausted, he admirably defended my position in court, and alimony was terminated. I have seen Mr. Pulitzer in his role as being my legal counsel in a divorce mediation, in his role as defending me in court, and in winning my case. Now, I see him as a good friend, a wonderful husband and good father as well. He is a genuinely good person, trustworthy, able, competent, fair, and as honest as you can get, and that is hard to find these days. I have no reservations whatsoever that Mr. Pulitzer, Gary, is the one to turn to in matters of Family Law, and he is highly recommended, from one professional to another, he is simply the best legal counsel out there today.
