Katherine made very short work of my divorce, during the height of Covid none the less. She didn't take any crap from my ex, and made sure our deal was fair. Very easy to get along with. Highly recommend her to anybody.

"Katherine is an extremely talented family law attorney. She has an ability to settle cases that didn't have a high likelihood of settlement. She does this with a reasonable position supported by Colorado precedent and a full understanding of her clients' needs. She also offers unbundled legal services, if you're looking for an attorney to only help on certain parts of your case. I endorse this attorney."
"Katherine is a talented and compassionate attorney. She helps her family law clients reach amicable solutions and thinks about the bigger picture for families. However, when necessary, she is more than willing to go to court to advocate for her clients. I highly recommend her!"
