Castle Pines Family Law & Divorce Attorneys
When a family is going through divorce, a custody dispute, or a support matter, the process does not stall because the law is unclear. It stalls because no one is steering. Johnson Law Group is a family-law-only firm, founded in 2015, built around one premise: families in transition deserve a prepared, focused guide. Castle Pines is one of Colorado’s youngest incorporated cities, having officially become a municipality in March 2008. It is entirely within Douglas County, and since January 14, 2025, Douglas County family law cases are heard in the newly created 23rd Judicial District. The families we serve here get the same focused preparation, the same documentation discipline, and the same clear counsel that Douglas County clients deserve.
Our Englewood office at 385 Inverness Pkwy, Suite 250, is the nearest Johnson Law Group location to Castle Pines, accessible via I-25 northbound from Castle Pines Parkway, approximately 20 miles. We serve Castle Pines clients in person at that office, with virtual consultations by video or phone available for families whose schedules or circumstances make the drive impractical.
Schedule a no-pressure consultation: call (720) 640-8463 or book a time online. We listen first, explain what you are facing under Colorado law, and give you a clear next step, whether or not you hire us.

Castle Pines Neighborhoods We Serve

Castle Pines family law cases, including divorce, custody, child support, spousal maintenance, and protection orders, are filed and heard at the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center in Castle Rock, the courthouse for the 23rd Judicial District. Douglas County became part of the newly created 23rd Judicial District on January 14, 2025, splitting from the former 18th Judicial District. Castle Pines does not have its own municipal court. Castle Rock has a separate Municipal Court for city ordinances, but Castle Pines residents are not subject to it and it has no jurisdiction over divorce, custody, or any Douglas County family law matter. From our Englewood office, the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center is approximately 27 miles south via I-25, a drive of about 30 to 40 minutes depending on traffic. Plan to meet with our team in Englewood or by video for case strategy, and to appear in Castle Rock for hearings.
Why Castle Pines Families Trust Johnson Law Group
The first call is not a sales call. You will talk to an attorney who listens before recommending anything. We ask the questions that matter, walk you through what Colorado law actually says about your situation, and tell you what we would do next. Guidance over conversion. That is the part clients tell us makes the difference when they were deciding who to hire.
We build cases the way you would want yours built. Family law is not a product. Two cases that look identical on paper can take very different paths once you look at the children, the assets, and the shared history. We start with what you need protected, build a strategy around it, and document the case as we go. Showing up to the Robert A. Christensen Justice Center prepared is not optional. It is how we work.
A client portal that keeps you in the loop. When you hire Johnson Law Group, you get access to our Client Portal at no additional cost. Real-time alerts on every case milestone, transparent billing, and a direct line to your legal team and Client Care Specialist. You will know where your case stands without having to chase updates.
We are staffed for cases that do not fit a template. A high-value home or investment portfolio that requires careful valuation. Executive compensation or equity that needs to be properly analyzed. A custody arrangement complicated by a parent’s relocation or a demanding travel schedule. A situation that requires strategic discretion in a close-knit community. Most Castle Pines cases do not involve all of that. When yours does, that is the kind of preparation and judgment we bring.
No outcome guarantees. Only preparation. No serious family law attorney can promise you a specific result, and we will not tell you what you want to hear to close a consultation. What we commit to is the preparation: a strategy that fits the facts, a documented case, and honest communication at every stage so you never feel blindsided.
Ready to talk? Call (720) 640-8463 or schedule a no-pressure consultation.
What to Expect When You Call
Our consultation process is straightforward and built around three things you need before any decisions get made:
- We listen first. Tell us what is happening. The short version is fine, and we will ask the questions that matter.
- We explain what Colorado law says. In plain English. No lecture, no scare tactics, no pressure.
- We map the next step. You will leave the consultation with a clear sense of what comes next: filing, responding, gathering records, or pausing to think it through.
We know Colorado’s courts. We know the path through this kind of case. And we will walk you through what comes next before you commit to anything. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and begin the journey toward your next chapter.

Christensen Justice Center in Castle Rock.
Do I have to come into the Englewood office, or can we handle this virtually?
Both options are available. Our Englewood office at 385 Inverness Pkwy, Suite 250, is the nearest Johnson Law Group location to Castle Pines and is accessible via I-25 heading north from Castle Pines Parkway, approximately 20 miles. We serve Castle Pines clients in person at that office. Virtual consultations by video or phone are equally effective for the initial consultation and much of the ongoing case work, and are a practical option for Castle Pines families given the drive. Most Castle Pines families use a mix of in-person and virtual meetings depending on the stage of the case.
My spouse recently moved out of state. Can Johnson Law Group still help?
Yes. Johnson Law Group is licensed in Colorado, Illinois, Florida, and Wyoming. When one spouse relocates to another state, questions of jurisdiction arise around which state governs the divorce filing, where custody matters should be heard, and how interstate custody agreements are enforced. Those cross-state questions are exactly the kind of work our multi-state team is built to assess. Schedule a consultation and we will evaluate which state has jurisdiction and what the filing path looks like for your specific situation.
Does it matter which Castle Pines neighborhood I live in for my case?
No. Whether you live in The Canyons, Castle Pines North, the Village at Castle Pines, Hidden Pointe, or Daniels Gate, every Castle Pines address is in Douglas County and files at the same Robert A. Christensen Justice Center in Castle Rock. Your neighborhood does not affect your court, your judge assignment, or the applicable law. It may affect practical logistics, such as which meeting format is most convenient for you, but the legal process is uniform across all of Castle Pines.
How much will it cost to hire a family law attorney in Castle Pines?
Family law costs depend on the complexity of your matter and how much can be resolved without court intervention. We discuss fees transparently at the consultation and will not quote representation without understanding your situation. Call (720) 640-8463 or schedule a consultation and we will give you a realistic picture of what your specific case is likely to involve.
I am not sure what kind of legal help I need yet. What should I do?
Start with a consultation. You do not need to have your situation fully categorized before you call. Tell us what is happening, and we will identify what area of family law applies, explain the typical process, and help you determine whether Johnson Law Group is the right fit. No commitment is required from the consultation, and no pressure is applied. The consultation exists to give you clarity, not to close a sale.
