Your Denver Family Attorney
When Family Matters Most
When your family is going through changes, you need a Denver family attorney who actually understands what you’re dealing with. At Nexus Family Law Group, we’ve been helping Colorado families through their toughest times for years, and we know that every situation is different.
Maybe you’re wondering if you should file for divorce. Maybe your ex isn’t following the custody agreement. Or maybe you’re trying to figure out how much child support you should be getting. Whatever brought you here, you’re probably feeling overwhelmed and not sure what to do next.
Here’s what we want you to know: you don’t have to figure this out alone. We’ve handled thousands of family law cases in Denver and across Colorado, and we’re here to help you understand your options and make the best decisions for your family.
When you need a divorce lawyer in Denver, you want someone who’s going to fight for you but also help you make smart decisions. Divorce is expensive enough without dragging it out longer than necessary, but you also can’t afford to agree to something that’s going to hurt you in the long run.
We’ve handled everything from simple uncontested divorces that get resolved in a few months to complex cases involving business valuations, professional practices, and hidden assets that take over a year to resolve. We’ll give you honest advice about what’s worth fighting for and what’s not, and we’ll always keep you informed about what’s happening with your case.
Our Practice Areas
We are here to give you the legal representation that you deserve.
As a family law firm in Denver, we see firsthand how these legal issues affect real people’s lives. This isn’t just our job – it’s about helping our neighbors, our community members, and families who are going through some of the hardest times they’ve ever faced.
Divorce
Whether you’re dealing with a simple divorce where you both agree on everything, or a complicated situation with business assets and high conflict, we’ll help you protect what matters most to you.
Going through a divorce in Colorado isn’t just about paperwork. It’s about your future, your kids, your house, your retirement accounts – basically everything that matters to you. Colorado is a no-fault divorce state, which means you don’t have to prove someone did something wrong to get divorced. You just need to show that your marriage is irretrievably broken.
But here’s the thing about divorce in Denver: the courts see these cases every single day. If you don’t have an experienced attorney who knows how the local judges handle things, you might not get the outcome you deserve. We know which judges are strict about deadlines, which ones care most about the kids, and how to present your case in a way that gets results.
Child Custody
We help parents in Denver, Boulder, Colorado Springs, and throughout Colorado understand how custody works and fight for arrangements that make sense for their families.
Your kids are the most important thing in your life. When you’re going through a custody battle in Denver, you want to make sure they’re going to be okay and that you’ll still get to be a real part of their lives.
Colorado courts use something called “the best interests of the child” to make child custody decisions. That sounds simple, but it actually involves looking at a lot of different factors – like who’s been the primary caregiver, what the kids want (if they’re old enough), how well the parents can work together, and whether there are any safety concerns.
Sometimes that means 50/50 custody, sometimes it means one parent has the kids most of the time with the other parent getting regular visits. Every family is different, and we’ll help you figure out what works best for your situation.
Child Support
We help parents in the Denver area understand their child support obligations and make sure the calculations are fair and accurate. If you’re supposed to be getting support and you’re not, we’ll help you enforce the order.
Money is tight for most families, and when parents live in separate houses, making ends meet gets even harder. Colorado has specific guidelines for calculating child support, but there are still a lot of variables that can affect how much you pay or receive.
The basic calculation looks at both parents’ incomes, how many overnights each parent has with the kids, and costs like health insurance and daycare. But what happens if someone is self-employed and their income varies? What if someone loses their job? What if the kids have special needs that cost extra money?
If your circumstances have changed and you need to modify support, we can help with that too.
Spousal Support
If you think you might be entitled to spousal support, or if your spouse is asking you to pay support, we can help you understand how these decisions get made and what you can expect.
Sometimes called alimony, spousal support in Colorado isn’t automatic. The court has to look at factors like how long you were married, what each spouse earns, and what each spouse contributed to the marriage (including things like staying home to raise kids or supporting the other spouse’s career).
Prenuptial Agreements
More and more couples in Denver are getting prenuptial agreements before they get married. These agreements can protect assets you had before marriage, clarify how property will be divided if you divorce, and even address spousal support.
For a prenup to hold up in Colorado courts, it needs to be fair, both parties need to fully disclose their assets, and both parties need to have independent legal representation. We help couples create agreements that protect their interests while still being enforceable.
Postnuptial Agreements
Already married but wish you had a prenup? Postnuptial agreements let married couples create similar protections even after they’re already married. Maybe your financial situation changed, maybe you started a business, or maybe you just want more clarity about how things would work if you ever divorced.
We’ve been practicing family law in Colorado for years, and we’ve built our reputation by getting good results for our clients and treating them with respect throughout the process.
