An Important Note About Colorado Family Law

Some divorcing parents are surprised to learn that “child custody” is not a legal term defined under Colorado law. In Colorado, the legal code refers to the "allocation of parental responsibilities" rather than calling it "child custody." These differences in terminology can make it difficult for parents to locate high-quality first-hand sources online when they try to conduct their own divorces.

Understanding Colorado's Child Custody Standards

In Colorado, child custody is determined based on the "best interests of the child." Instead of "custody," Colorado law uses the term "allocation of parental responsibilities," which encompasses decision-making responsibilities (like education and healthcare) and parenting time (where the child lives and how time is shared). 

The "best interests of the child" standard is the paramount consideration for courts when deciding parental responsibilities. This standard requires courts to evaluate numerous factors, including the child's wishes (depending on their age and maturity); the parents' ability to provide care; the child's relationship with each parent; the child's adjustment to their home, school, and community; and any history of abuse or neglect.

    “When you have someone in your corner that understands the importance of family it makes the situation a ton easier.”
    I wasn’t familiar with the process of child custody but I must say not only did Myles and his team direct me properly but it was a process that wasn’t money motivated. Very professional group, I was constantly informed of any step or move needed to be made, and they took a very stressful situation and made it a very pleasant storm. Thank you Myles and Johnson group for everything!”

    “These ladies have done such an amazing job with my case so far! 10/10 highly recommend!”
    Before working with Johnson Law. I had a previous attorney who completely screwed us over. He definitely only took us on for the money. He had no communication, mixed us up with different clients and so much more. So my husband and I were very scared working with a different attorney and getting screwed over again but we took the chance with Johnson law. We are currently working with Shana Velez, Kristina Contreras, and Julie Hernandez. After expressing my concerns because of the previous attorney they have kept amazing communication with me. They know who they are speaking to every time, they know my case, and they definitely don’t try to just take my money. They do their best to save me money as much as they can! These ladies have done such an amazing job with my case so far! 10/10 highly recommend! I will be back with another review once we are done working with them :)
