Kind Attorney, Professional Paralegals

I went to Lynn Landis-Brown P.C. for my divorce. Everything went smoothly and on time without any complications. Her staff is very professional and always prepared. They kept me very well informed throughout the whole process. Divorces can be very stressful but I'm glad I went to Lynn Landis-Brown. ...Highly recommend!

Compassionate and informed

Divorce is a very stressful and difficult time in one's life. There is a lot of uncertainty and inability to think and react. Lynn Landis-Brown was not only compassionate, but also helped me to understand my rights and explained things in a way that I could understand. She took her own personal tim...e to meet with me and was always very helpfull. She helped to lessen the stress, pointed me in the right direction and gave me options to resolve my issue. I highly recommend her as a Family Law Attorney.

Waste of $175 Initial Consultation Fee

I went to see Lynn Landis-Brown to retain her for my divorce, based in large part due to the positive reviews on this website. Unfortunately, when I went to my Initial Consultation yesterday, she didn't help me at all. I had a few procedural questions prepared and some concerns about whether or not... I was on the right track in my Pro Se divorce. She was very kind and sympathetic, but any time I tried to get a word in edgewise, she filibusterd with a lot of exeraneous information about spousal maintenance (which I'm not asking for) and why I need it and information about herself and what she's been through similar to my situation and some chit chat which, frankly is not what I was there for. I paid the $175 in hopes of getting the answers to five or six simple questions, like how do I go about getting Temporary Support and how can I keep from losing my share of equity in the marital home if I was bullied out of the home and he is refinancing in his own name? Stuff like that. But my hour was filled with fluff and she didn't help me at all with any of my pressing questions. I understand that lawyers don't like to give out free information on how you're doing with your case or what you should be doning differently, but I thought that, since I was paying $175 (most initial consultations are free) she might be willing to discuss my case at least a little bit.

A Complete Professional In Every Aspect

I retained Lynn Landis-Brown initially in 2009 to represent me in a divorce that later was reconsiled. At that time she offered well-considered advice which I took, and I am very glad I did. Two years later the reconciliation failed and I retained her once again. Having worked with numerous at...torneys in the past (mostly district attorneys) I had an idea the personality and intellect I wanted representing me. I found those qualities in Lynn. Her detail-oriented method of handeling my case was a pleasure to experience. I now understand the world of family law, marital assets and spousal support to a far greater degree. Lynn explained every document and the necessity for them. I noticed in her work ethic a concept I call: "If you stay ready, you don't have to get ready." She involved me in my case, to the point of allowing me to review documnets for errors. This gave me a sense of control and allowed me to contribute ideas for provisions I wanted to see in the final separation agreement. She has many contacts both within and outside of the law that are often needed as "experts." These persons can make a tremendous difference in the final outcome. Lynn's office staff, specifically Paralegal Bridget Poppitz always prompty returned my phone calls and E-mails. Bottom line: Lynn helped me save my ranch and 83% of my retirement, following a 15+ year marriage. I highly recommend her.

Divorce

Hello Lynn, I want to thank you for assisting me in my divorce. I can’t thank you enough for your support during my trying time.You helped me understand the reality of the Colorado laws and advised me not to listen to rumors from friends and family who say they have been through it and try and give... advice. I cannot stress enough for others who go through this the importance of retaining a knowledgeable attorney that specializes in divorce only, not one who can counsel in all things such DUIs and so on. Thanks to you I came out on top!!! I truly believe that it’s because of your knowledge and specialty that I still have my home (which I was able to refinance) and kept my two dogs, all of my house furnishings, car, spousal maintenance, and took back my maiden name. So in the end, I am loving life, ALL thanks to you! Sincerely,Linda

"I endorse this lawyer. I worked opposite of Lynn on a difficult and complex case that had a part in El Paso District Court and another part in the U.S. District Court of Colorado. She was very professional and worked extremely hard to get the case to a fair resolution for both sides with very little available time afforded."

"In the most recent case I had with Lynn, she was responsible in defending her client's interests, yet was able to reach a compromise which I believe was in the best interest of both clients. The mediation was successful and she did not play unreasonable games that would have led to costly and unnecessary litigation. I recommend her, particularly for Colorado Springs family law cases."
