Successful Mediation

One of the most daunting tasks that anyone needing legal insight has to undertake is the identification and selection of an attorney in whom they can have complete trust and faith that not only will the advice they receive be accurate and applicable, but also that their interests are fully understood.... From the very first phone call with Ms. Monty, it was readily apparent that I did not need to call anyone else. She took the time to fully understand the issues and concerns I had surrounding my upcoming mediation. Rather than react based upon what I might want to hear, she took the time to fully research all of my concerns and provide me with sound options and advice. She was firm when necessary, compassionate when needed and, above all, professional at all times. Family law cannot be something that is easy to be involved with, but Ms. Monty obvoiusly understands that emotions are part of the equation. Throughout the mediation, she was very supportive and allowed both I and my ex to attempt to resolve our differences through our own dialogue, interjecting only with suggestions to keep the conversation moving. It was quite obvious that her ultimate goal was to see the mediation a success if at all possible. I would have no apprehension whatsoever recommending Laura Monty to anyone seeking thorough, professional and compassionate representation for any family law matters.

Laura is AWESOME!

I hired Laura after having a bad experience with another attorney. Laura is very professional, caring and she has acute attention to detail. I really enjoyed working with Laura. I would 100% recommend her!

Great Attorney!

Laura Monty represented me in my recent divorce. She is very knowledgeable in divorce and helped me through several mediations to achieve a fair outcome. I have three children and I was concerned with how child custody was going to shake out after the divorce. Laura kept my children's best interes...ts at the forefront. Her advise throughout the divorce process was exceptional. Laura kept me informed through each step and answered my many questions and concerns promptly. When you retain Laura to represent you, you will be getting one of the best attorneys in Colorado. I am happy I had her represent me and I would definitely hire her again.

Professional, knowledgeable, patient. A strong advocate.

As my divorce attorney, Ms. Monty was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and constantly keeping my best interest at heart. I always felt she understood the strong emotional component of going through a divorce and was a knowledgeable advocate for me throughout the entire process. Her explanations ...of the legalities involved in divorce were easy for me to understand, and the efficiency by which she drove the process reduced my stress level immensely. I am grateful for the role she played in my divorce process.
