Impeccable representation and the best law firm in Denver.

When I first consulted with Margot, I was terrified and felt trapped in my marriage. Margot eased my anxiety, walked me through every step of the process and offered an incredible, consistent amount of support. Margot took a high conflict case and handled every obstacle ethically, efficiently and wit...h so much grace, even when the opposing counsel targeted her directly. I’ve never had a voice and working with Margot gave me one. I am safely out of an abusive relationship with what I need to move forward in rebuilding my life and I do not have to fear that my ex and his accessibility to money will keep me in court until our children are adults. I don’t know that I’ll ever find the exact words to express my gratitude for Margot and the entire team at BAM. That said, I’m so proud to have BAM walking beside me in my journey to rebuild my life and give my kids the peaceful, happy childhood they deserve.

Very grateful to have Margot Alicks on my TEAM !!!

Margot was referred to me by a close friend and during my initial consultation, I knew that I needed her to represent me! Not knowing anything at all about what the process of I was getting ready to sign up for, Margot and her TEAM did a wonderful job explaining every step. Anything that I was able... to do in order to keep my cost down - they allowed that. They did a wonderful job on communicating all that was happening with my case. I truly felt like I was part of the family and I was given the freedom to make my own decision with the legal advice that was given. After seeing how the opposing attorney handled this case, I am so grateful to have been on TEAM Margot. Many thanks to Margot Alicks and her TEAM !!!!!!!!

End to End Support and Professionalism

If you are reading this review, I assume, like me, you are in need of someone to assist you in navigating the legal side of Family Law. Margot and her team met with me and I felt at ease the moment I entered the office. In my situation there were were years of history that I needed to share pri...or to determining the best way forward. At the end of our consultation, it was evident that the team had been able to comprehend a very complicated situation, digest and provide options forward. Their investment in my situation, regardless of my choice to retain their services, stood out to me. I have hired lawyers in the past to assist me and have never felt the way I did when leaving Margot's office. I felt supported, validated and for the first time in years had hope that I would find a resolution. I retained Margot and her team limited scope, to review and help prepare documents to modify Parenting plan and Child Support. I provided the documentation that I had been working on and they were able to take that information (25 documents) and compile it into a package to submit to the court. I am impressed across the board, but her teams ability to retain detail and ensure all content was included with minimal engagement with me, is something I know sets them apart from other firms. If you are looking for a team that knows Family Law inside and out, and is willing to support and guide you through what is possibly the hardest time of your life, I have 100% confidence that BAMFAM, specifically Margot and her team is the right choice.

I love Margot!

Through a crazy chain of events leading to my divorce, I found Margot and she has been my rock through this process that I did not want to face alone. She has given me tough love and counseled me through things I did not know in the legal world of divorce. More important, she is empathetic and unde...rstanding of how difficult divorce is emotionally. I couldn't have asked for more through this process. Thank you Margot!

Bar None - the best Attorney and Firm in Denver!!!!!

I previously worked with another attorney on my divorce, spent thousands and thousands of dollars unnecessarily and received very little advice and virtually no communication. At the urging of a friend, I met w/ Margot, came away EXTREMELY impressed and decided to make the switch. What I received... was top-notch counsel, constant communication and the feeling that I truly met an attorney that cared about me and my kids, not just one that cared about her fees. Bar none the best attorney in Denver. Working with her and Russell has been amazing - they are an incredible team, a true credit to their professions. If you choose to work with them you will not be disappointed. They are worth every penny you will pay them!!!!!
