A true advocate on your side

I was referred to Lynne after another lawyer mismanaged the beginning process of my divorce. When I met Lynne I was immediately drawn to her straightforward and professional demeanor. Lynne is intelligent, compassionate and legitimately cares about her clients. She takes pride in her work, which is ...apparent from her attention to detail. She was never dismissive of my situation and always made me feel comfortable. Lynne not only had my best interest in mind, but she was also looking out for my future. I trusted her explicitly during this difficult situation. Lynne and her team always followed through to the last detail, communicated and explained everything that was going on in my case. Her and her staff were always quick to respond to all of my requests/concerns. When you are going through an incredibly emotional and stressful situation, it makes things more manageable when you find an attorney who is extremely knowledgeable, dedicated and amazingly supportive. She is someone I would call a friend. I would highly recommend Lynne without hesitation to anyone, especially a close friend or family member.

Helpful and Efficient

I had the pleasure of working with Lynne and her Staff last year. She handled my divorce and was not only helpful and efficient, but very supportive as well. Lynne made my misfortune a lot easier to understand and was able to protect my interests for many years to come. I couldn't give her enough p...raise for all that she did.

Best Divorce Attorney in Denver!!

Lynne is awesome! I had a very difficult situation confronting me from all aspects. She handled everything and got me a fair settlement on all fronts. She's very concerned about kids which is so important. After all they come first and foremost in Divorce situations. It's been 3 years and the childre...n are thriving as are the parents of the children. Thank you Lynne!! 3 of my other close friends/ families worked with Lynne when going through their divorces. They are all thriving and happy as well. Lynne always told me I'd be much happier in the end. And she was 100% right. Her paralegal Victoria Spain is so great as well. And always so easy to work with. Whether your divorce is easy or difficult they are a great team and you definately want these wonderful women on your side!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
