Kellyn L. Nagel

Kellyn Nagel is a peerless attorney who knows the intricacies of the law when it comes to custody, adoption, and all other issues that can influence the outcome of a case, and the future of a child and a family. She was quick to understand the complexities and subtleties of our situation and was will...ing to explore all legal options to work towards a positive outcome. I have no doubt we won our case due to the legal prowess of Kellyn Nagel and we will forever be grateful. While interviewing other lawyers we were told by some that our case was un-winnable. Not Kellyn! When one legal approach was no longer viable, she found another way to make our case. Leveraging her legal mentors, Kellyn provided excellent counsel and advice ensuring well-intended family members did not further complicate the facts in our case. Kellyn left no stone unturned. Utilizing a private investigator, Kellyn ensured due diligence was done making every effort to locate birth parents and serve them notice of hearings and other legal proceedings so much so that even the judge was impressed by the effort. Her petitions and arguments were precise and logical. The judge had little choice but to rule in our favor. Kellyn was also very personable, so much so that we became friends along the way. Spending nearly a year to gain custody of a young child from an abusive family member is a heart-wrenching endeavor filled with constant highs, lows, and everything in between. It is frustrating, exhausting, and can take over your life. Kellyn always told us the truth so we could mentally and emotionally prepare ourselves for all possible outcomes. More importantly, she always delivered news promptly interpreting the legal decision in a manner we could easily understand. Kellyn was always ready to tell us what the next step in the process would be and what our options were while keeping the end goal in mind. Having someone like Kellyn in your corner every step of the way definitely made the process bearable even when it seemed like it would never end. When fighting for the future of a child, for the future of your family you want the best. You want Kellyn Nagel.

We are an active duty family living in another state and were having a tough time navigating a step-parent adoption in Colorado. After some searching we were fortunate enough to work with Kellyn. From the first time we talked over the phone I felt more at ease and optimistic about the outcome of our ...case. She navigated us though the process answering all our questions promptly and accurately. Her attentiveness and professionalism made us feel like we were her only client. Being somewhat naive of the legal system, I felt embarrassed to ask some basic legal questions, but she always answered them thoroughly without making me feel like it was “a dumb question”. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome of our case or how Kellyn made the entire process so stress free for us.
