Legal Services for Dissolution of Marriage in Colorado Springs

Dissolution of Marriage

Divorce

Leta Brandes Law, LLC understands that our clients in the midst of obtaining a divorce are going through an extremely stressful period in their lives. Therefore, we work hard to provide quality legal representation for our clients to assist them in obtaining the most successful outcome under their circumstances.

Under Colorado law, divorce is referred to as dissolution of marriage. In dissolution of marriage cases, we listen to our clients, carefully explain available legal strategies, and work hard to successfully achieve our clients' goals and best interests.

Dissolution of Marriage with Children

Our clients care about their children and we understand children should be sheltered from the conflict to minimize the long term emotional damage. We understand that when parents dissolve their marriage they still need to co-parent their children if both parents are deemed fit. Therefore, if possible, we will try to help you minimize conflict and the negative effects to you and your children.

However, we will not tolerate the opposing party bullying our client or endangering our client’s children. We are aggressive as necessary in an attempt to protect our client and children.
