The absolute best choice in Family Law in COS!

The entire staff at Marrison Family Law is top notch! Having been a client for 2.5 years during my DV divorce and custody case, I can say with out a doubt that I made the best choice in law firm. You can tell that every client matters to the owner Pat Marrison and the firm. Mark Bosworth and his para...legal Shannon have been nothing short of outstanding through the entire process- and I did not have an easy divorce case. They handled every aspect of the case with professionalism, support and are both extremely knowledgeable and well versed in the process of family law cases. I was awarded full custody of my children and Mark and his team fought to make sure that was the outcome. I cannot recommend them enough! When you are going through a hard situation and need someone strong by your side, Marrison Family Law is the best choice!

They are very professional

It is not an exaggeration to say that the ease in my life today is because of Marrison Law and their efficiency in anticipating the post judgment issues of my “so-called” mutually agreed divorce. They are very professional, highly knowledgeable, and diligent in following up and preparing legal docum...ents. I highly recommend them, if you want to successfully get through your divorce.

This is EXACTLY why I recommend Marrison Family.

I one hundred percent recommend Marrison Family Law if you’ve got yourself in a noose with a highly toxic ex who about refuses to budge on anything. Even when it’s her fault! To say my divorce was turbulent would be a massive understatement—Kelsey refused to listen to any reason, and she got violent.... I would NOT allow that in front of my kids and the rest of the family. I was positive that she only dragged this on for my military benefits, and I knew I needed lawyers that knew how to deal with that. This is EXACTLY why I recommend Marrison Family. They know everything about military divorce, plenty of experience handling it (especially the nasty ones!), and they know how to get you out of that mess. I didn’t even know you could bring up your ex’s mental state and have that officially dealt with, too, so there’s a record. I can’t thank this firm enough; I can’t advise others sufficient to get a good lawyer if you want to get out of a terrible situation.

If I could give her ten stars, I would.

I needed help with post-divorce issues involving custody and spousal support. After talking to several lawyers, I got in touch with Catherine. During our first conversation, I felt as if a huge burden was lifted off my shoulders. She suggested several approaches to resolve my ex-wife’s and my issues.... In court, she aggressively represented me to help ensure the best possible outcome for my kids. If I could give her ten stars, I would.

Our family appreciate it so much.

We have experienced a difficult custody case and were really worried about what could happen. Thank goodness Pat and the entire Marrison firm have been there to help us. Thank you so much for the professional service we received. Our family appreciate it so much.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
