Michelle Faulk is an amazing lawyer and came into my messy divorce at just the right time. Well, earlier might have been better to avoid the disaster created by my ex husband and previous attorney firm. I walked into separation unrepresented and had hoped my ex and I could dissolve our marriage wit...hout conflicts and arguments. That was the worst mistake ever! In the following two years he NEVER paid a single child support check, paid or supported a single activity/ sport for any of our 4 children, NEVER paid the mortgage on the house he kept in the separation, NEVER paid a dime toward the equity owed to me from the house, kept all of our belongings except the small amount he allowed me to take when I moved out, and skipped out on any of the parenting responsibilities outside of providing food and shelter for our children although he had 50% parenting time. I finally retained my previous lawyer when our house was foreclosed, I had nothing for equity, our children were doing poorly in school (when he had them attend), and I was financially crippled. My previous attorney did a terrible job and left me with little faith in our court system. After this court appearance I spoke with Mechelle to see if she could just "make the bleeding stop". In the 3 years since that court date she has completely turned my life around and gave me hope. It's not that I expected to 'steal' everything from my ex, I just wanted it fair for both of us and in the best interest of our 4 children. I just needed need the court orders to be followed and the children to be a priority. Mechelle has made such a difference. She is very knowledgeable, honest, and compassionate. She has been very available and when she is at her busiest she is able to send out an email, make a quick call, or have someone in the office call and set up an appointment for us to meet. If I were to select just one situation that she handled for me, and there have been many, I would choose her expertise when my ex husband dropped my oldest daughter (13 yrs old) off at my house, at night, while I was at work, and drove away. He never called to check on her nor did he call to let me know she was at my house. I am an RN and work 12 hour night shifts. Mechelle was immediately concerned and spoke with me that evening (during her off time) so we could come up with what I needed to do next. She contacted our CFI, set up for supplemental CFI report, got the information in front of the judge, and now I have full parenting custody of our oldest child. She not only handled this situation as an exceptional lawyer, but also reached out to me with comfort in the horrible ordeal. I trust her completely and always feel like she is in my corner. I will always recommend Mechelle Faulk as she is top of the top! My divorce has been horrible, but she has given me hope and helped restore my faith in our court system.

I hired Mechelle to represent me in my divorce and am so pleased that I did. Being in the legal field myself but not having any experience with family law, I was concerned about hiring the wrong lawyer and to me that would have meant someone who was unnecessarily elevating fees or creating unnecessa...ry contentions, or someone who was not familiar with the complicated issues in family law. While advocating on my behalf, Mechelle never "wallowed in the mud" with the other side over petty issues, was professional in all communications and correspondence, and monumental in helping me understand what my rights were and how the court and our state would likely rule on important issues. This ultimately saved in legal fees and made it possible to reach agreements with my ex, in spite of the delay tactics that were evident from the time I filed for divorce. Mechelle's knowledge of local family law practice is amazing and her ability to compose, draft and edit documents on the fly was not only efficient but awe-inspiring. Mechelle also has an associate and a paralegal who are both very experienced in family law, which allowed a very efficient and cost-effective representation without sacrificing quality or professionalism.

Mechelle has handled my divorce and post decree matters for the past 2+ years. Before writing my review, I read the others and felt compelled to respond to some of the negative comments by writing there is no way the reviews about poor court performance, writing and personal appearance are accurate. ...I suspect they were not written by actual clients, but by disgruntled third parties who've lost to Mechelle. My case was complicated and required beyond average attention from an attorney and Mechelle did an amazing job in managing the many issues that arose from pre-divorce to the present. My divorce involved three children, multiple properties and a business as well as domestic violence. This was not an easy divorce by any means. Therefore, I checked around before retaining her and discovered she has one of the best reputations within the legal community and is thought of as one of the best attorneys in Denver. Mechelle is an extremely professional, thorough, prepared, and skilled family law practitioner. In court Mechelle has proven to be very effective, while maintaining a high level of courtesy and professionalism towards everyone. Mechelle and her team were excellent at managing my case, keeping me informed during the process and getting me prepared for court. I feel my needs have been met and goals reached and was very pleased with my outcome. Mechelle handles matters expeditiously and does not waste time nor money in the process; which I greatly appreciated. I can honestly write I've never had better nor more effective representation than Mechelle.

I worked with Mechelle for some time due to the contentious nature of my divorce. I always felt that she kept my best interests at heart. I was very impressed at her competence. Divorce is a very difficult process to go through but I'm certainly glad Mechelle was on my side. I came out of the div...orce with what I thought was a fair settlement and at the start things did not look so rosy (my spouse,who initiated the divorce, was totally disabled). I would, without question recommend her. Mechelle is an amazing attorney!
