Nathan Mckinley James Dowell

Life threw me a curveball and I needed help. With the first call to Hinds and Hinds, I knew I found the right firm to represent me. The calmness of the receptionist who genuinely wanted to help, to the paralegal who listened endlessly and provided kindness, love & support to the lawyer who represented me with such quiet firmness, perseverance and knowledge. Hinds and Hinds accepted my case but more importantly accepted and invested in me personally, emotionally and professionally. As my case wrapped up and I started a new chapter in my life, looking back, I know I could not have made it without my power team of Nathan Dowell and Karen Yurack. They went above and beyond taking care of all my needs. Thank you truly from the bottom of my heart for believing in me.

Nathan Dowell and his paralegal Karen Yurak are an amazing dream team. They are knowledgeable and honest. They help you see the light at the end of the tunnel in an otherwise dark situation. I felt secure knowing they were in my corner fighting on behalf of me and my daughter.

I cannot say enough positive things about Nathan Dowell. His expertise, skill, compassion, and focus on child-well being and on solutions have impressed me more than I can say. Even under difficult circumstances, it was always a pleasure to work with him.

Nathan assisted me with a very difficult, high-conflict custody case. Nathan is patient, professional, frank, honest, and caring, especially under pressure. There were many times my ex and his lawyer would not communicate or provide the courts with requested documentations. Nathan remained calm and professional throughout, working with me and the court to obtain the required documents to help move my case forward. Nathan helped me create a schedule that was 100% in my child's best interest. And for that I am beyond grateful. He is an amazing, caring lawyer who listens, guides you, and helps to get to the heart of the matter. What is in your child's best interest. He doesn't get entangled in dirty, cruel games, and will stay honest with you through-out your case. This was one of the hardest struggles I have every gone through in my life, and I am grateful that Nathan was there to help assist and support me through my child custody. I highly recommend Nathan. Please take the time to speak with him and see if he is right for you.

I hired Nathan Dowell at Hinds and Hinds Family Law, P.C. and had an incredibly positive experience, even given the unfortunate circumstances that brought me there. Nathan's depth and breadth of experience made the process of my civil case smoother and easier to cope with. He maintained professionalism and tact in response to opposing counsel's ridiculousness and frustrating communication. After a lengthy case, we were able to come to a reasonable resolution, that he worked tirelessly to achieve. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal services for a civil proceeding.

This may not be what you are looking for but as a surgeon, I hate all lawyers and I owe them nothing. In my long experience I am hostile toward any lawyer and believe lawyers' reputations are very well deserved. Especially the divorce and custody lawyers that I've experienced in three states over the last 25 years. In spite of that I have been asked to provide my realistic criticism of this law firm. I told them they may not know what they are asking for. However, on further thought I had to admit that 10 years ago this law firm permanently changed my five children's lives for the better forever. After a long legal struggle. This firm did it again last year after we moved back to Colorado. This firm is a product of legal wisdom and experience Fact is, if I had to do this again I could never go to another law firm. Hinds law firm corrected erroneous custody decisions in Colorado years ago when it was impossible to do so. They did it again after I moved back from two states that had prehistoric family laws designed to protect uncaring moms instead of the welfare of your children. I know from my research this law firm has influenced family law legislation in Colorado enough to change current Colorado law to become more enlightened and focused on the children. There are no other law firms in my three states let alone Denver with this kind of legacy. And the courts know this law firm. Courts know that they will represent solid cases. Especially those that have the true interest of children involved. If you come to this outfit with BS they will tell you. Trust me you need to know. Good luck Richard E, MD

I have had relationships with a few different family lawyers before meeting Nathan, and therefore I have been able to experience different levels of experience, knowledge and conduct. Nathan excels at all of these. His knowledge of case law and dealings with the court are superior and his conduct in family law is what most should aspire to be; rational, supportive, yet non-adversarial in his approach with opposing counsel and his clients. I also believe an additional asset is his knowledge of the appeal court and process. This asset can potentially help him, better than most lawyers, determine what is reasonable to assume under multiple case law interpretations and outcomes. Don’t let years of experience deceive you into believing that should be your number 1 decision criteria. And don’t let the AVVO rating be your number one criteria. Meet with the lawyer and try to determine if their feedback is rational and reasonable in their assessment of your situation and recommended approach. Good luck to all those potential clients reading and researching.
