Denver Military Divorce Lawyer
Colorado Family Law Help
First, we want to say Happy Veteran's Day and to our Military members, we are here for you! If you are in the military and are a Colorado resident thinking about divorce, consulting with an experienced military family law attorney is essential. Our Attorneys at Johnson Law Group understand that military law and divorce can be complex and challenging, especially when dividing property and benefits. If you are a Colorado resident facing a military divorce, it is crucial to hire an experienced divorce attorney to represent your interests.
Colorado Military Divorce Laws
Colorado law treats military retirement pay as marital property, meaning that it is subject to division in a divorce. The court may use the Hunt/Gallo formula to divide military retirement pay, which takes into account the length of the marriage during the service member's active-duty service. The Hunt/Gallo formula for dividing military retirement pay can be complex, and it is important to have an attorney who understands how it works.
Things To Consider in Colorado Military Divorces
- Colorado Supreme Court Rules on Military Divorce Property Division (October 2023): The Colorado Supreme Court ruled in favor of a military service member in a property division dispute. The court held that the service member's military retirement pay was not subject to division because it was not marital property.
- Colorado Lawmakers Consider Legislation to Help Military Spouses (September 2023): Colorado lawmakers are considering legislation that would provide additional support to military spouses. The legislation would include measures to help military spouses find employment, access education, and receive affordable childcare.
- Colorado Court Awards Military Spouse Half of Husband's Retirement Pay (July 2023): A Colorado court awarded a military spouse half of her husband's retirement pay in a divorce case. The court held that the military retirement pay was marital property and subject to division.
- Colorado Military Divorce Rate on the Rise (June 2023): The military divorce rate in Colorado is on the rise. Experts attribute the increase to a number of factors, including the stress of deployments and the high cost of living in Colorado.

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 :)- Sierra S.

I have a high profile case involving a custody matter, that stretched across multiple States, which included Colorado. At one point I had 4 Law firms attending to the matter in 4 different States, Johnson Law Group stood out as the best Law Firm, exemplifying integrity, fairness and strategies for the case. I highly recommend Johnson Law Group.- Jorel S.

From the initial phone call I spoke to Myles Johnson, he gave great direction on how to proceed. Then acquiring the firm as my legal representation I worked with Said and he helped me step by step to get what I was looking for. I have already recommended two different individuals I know to Johnson Law Group and will be using them for all future situations. From the legal team to Cory at the front desk, everyone at the firm is top-notch.- Brady M.

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!”- Dwight

This review nor a amount a amount of characters can express how grateful I am for Johnson law. From the moment I called they gave me a peace of mind that they where going to be able to help me through my child custody situation. I worked with Yasaman and she was super professional and caring. From the moment she started working on my case and laid down the road map to our approach to my case it happened to a tee. She never misled me or over promises anything but over delivered every step of the way! The last 6 months would of been hell if it wasn’t for Johnson Law and Yasaman.- Jaime S.
