Erin T

John is a fantastic attorney. He handled my contentious divorce case and I have absolutely no complaints. He returns phone calls and emails usually within 24 hours and will take your call immediately if he can. He kept me well informed through the entire process and insisted that we walk through ever...y step together. For example, his office is just a few blocks from the courthouse and he insisted on walking there together for every hearing (as opposed to just meeting there). That alone cut my nerves in half. Perhaps most important -- he was exceptionally prepared for court. He had prepared a thick, tabbed binder with every piece of information and every exhibit I had given him. He was prepared to respond to every issue in the case. Compare that to my ex-husband's attorney, who had a few sheets of paper. John is also friendly, empathetic, and extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of Colorado family law. I would 100% recommend that you use him.

Divorce that I filed for

John communicated well with me, which really helped in the whole process. He knows what to do and when to do it and is efficient which kept the cost down. He also knows of some great outside resources that he recommends. John is honest and has a high ethical standard. I highly recommend him!

divorce representation

John was very professional and worked hard to advocate for me during my divorce. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the field. He listened to my concerns and was able to set me at ease during a difficult and stressful time in my life. I was going to be in a potentially vulnerable finan...cial situation but with John working for me, in the end I came out with the financial security I needed. I would recommend him for anyone going through a divorce.

Divorce and Custody Cases

John was my attorney thru an emotionally intense divorce and custody process. He was extremely knowledgeable about the laws, and was calm, effective and supportive in all aspects. He has great rapport and respect with other attorneys as well as with the judges. John did amazing work on my very comp...licated case, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a strong attorney to advocate for justice in their situation.

Win your custody case

John is smart, calm, cool and collected. When it comes to the most emotional case you will possibly ever have, your custody case, John is the attorney you want on your side. Crimimal law, ditto. He is one of the best and not a rude like the other good ones.
