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.
