From your must-attend (attorneys and judges alike) family law seminars through the CBA to your statewide reputation for advocacy (while adhering to a ‘do no harm’ mandate for families), you are the attorney that all of the judges hope walk into the courtroom on the tough cases.”

I endorse this lawyer. Brenda is an excellent advocate and a lawyer's lawyer. She fights to win, and her responses show a great depth of both knowledge and insight into the law. Her responses on sites such as AVVO additionally put her out in the community, helping members of the public, contributing to the greater "legal good". You should hire her if you're in Colorado. She knows how to win.
