Top notch attorney!
I can't say enough wonderful things about my attorney, Chris McLane. From the very first phone consult to the last day in court he has given 100% commitment to me and my case. He listens with compassion and takes action to achieve justice for his clients. Initially, I was so nervous to seek out a di...

The outcome far surpassed my expectations. He worked hard and had my case closed within a matter of months. Chris made the entire experience 100% worry free. He provided me with updates so I knew how quickly things progressed instead of being dragged out. I would highly recommend Chris’s e...

The best attorney I have had from many
I hired Chris because I saw his stellar reviews and retained him After I teased him about Bot farms giving him unbelievable reviews. But the reviews are accurate giving him 5 star ratings.

High stress property settlement after 5 years of trying to negotiate with my ex
I hired Chris after consulting him about a property settlement that was 5 years overdue and going nowhere. I was being stonewalled and extorted by my ex, he refused to complete our property division agreement after our divorce fairly, and in the time frame set by the court and agreed to by both of u...
"Chris is a true professional. From my experience with Chris, he gets right to the meat of the issue and focuses on solutions rather than litigating the litigation unnecessarily. I endorse this lawyer."
"Chris hired me at Family Law Center of the Rockies. He was an excellent boss who let me learn my own way and make my own mistakes, while providing gentle guidance on how to win points with the judges. He was patient and easygoing. He also gave me interesting projects to work on and let me go to court for the practice. Chris was an excellent boss and mentor!"
"An excellent lawyer who treats clients with patience, care, understanding, and utmost professionalism - an even better person and I wholeheartedly recommend for future services."
"Chris is a brilliant, zealous advocate; one who maintains his poise and professionalism while mopping the floor with the opposition. I cannot recommend him highly enough."
"Chris is a very skilled and knowledgeable lawyer in the field of family law. Not only must a skilled family law attorney know the substantive and procedural aspects of the law as it applies to a specific case, he or she must also have a developed sense of strategy and negotiation to assist parties in seeking alternative resolutions to their benefit. Chris has these skills. I would not hesitate in recommending Chris to a person seeking a great family law attorney."
