Centennial 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. Centennial families get that same single-practice discipline, the same documentation approach, and the same clear-headed counsel that Arapahoe County clients have come to rely on.
Our Englewood office at 385 Inverness Pkwy, Suite 250, is the Johnson Law Group location dedicated to Arapahoe County clients, including Centennial families. We serve 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.

Where You Are, Where Your Case Is Heard
Where you meet with us is about convenience. Where your case is filed is about jurisdiction. For Centennial residents, the courthouse is located in the city itself.

Arapahoe County Justice Center 7325 S. Potomac Street Centennial, CO 80112 18th Judicial District |
Centennial family law cases, including divorce, custody, child support, spousal maintenance, and protection orders, are filed and heard at the Arapahoe County Justice Center in Centennial, the primary courthouse for the 18th Judicial District’s Arapahoe County matters. The courthouse is located within Centennial itself at 7325 S. Potomac Street. Centennial also has its own Municipal Court at 13133 East Arapahoe Road, but that court handles only city ordinance, traffic, and zoning violations and has no jurisdiction over divorce, custody, or any Arapahoe County Family Law matter. From our Englewood office, the Arapahoe County Justice Center is approximately 5 miles northeast, a drive of about 10 to 15 minutes. Plan to meet with our team in Englewood or by video for case strategy, and to appear in Centennial for hearings.
Why Centennial 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 Arapahoe County 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 custody arrangement complicated by a parent’s relocation. A business interest or retirement account that needs proper valuation. An interstate jurisdiction question when one spouse moved to another state. Most Centennial cases do not require any of that. When yours does, that is the kind of work we know how to do.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where will my Centennial family law case be filed?
Centennial family law cases, including divorce, custody, child support, spousal maintenance, and protection orders, are filed at the Arapahoe County Justice Center, 7325 S. Potomac Street, Centennial, CO 80112. Centennial is within Arapahoe County, and the Arapahoe County Justice Center is located in Centennial itself. The court handles all 18th Judicial District Arapahoe County matters. Note that Centennial has its own Municipal Court at 13133 East Arapahoe Road, but that court handles only city ordinance, traffic, and zoning violations and has no jurisdiction over divorce or family law.
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 Centennial and serves Arapahoe County clients who prefer in-person meetings. Virtual consultations by video or phone are available for any Arapahoe County client and work equally well for the initial consultation and much of the ongoing case work. Most Centennial families use a combination 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 Centennial neighborhood I live in for my case?
No. Whether you live in Willow Creek, Homestead, Foxridge, The Knolls, or any other part of Centennial, your family law case is filed at the same Arapahoe County Justice Center in Centennial. Your neighborhood does not determine your court, your judge assignment, or the applicable law. One practical note: some Centennial addresses carry a postal designation of Aurora, Englewood, or Littleton. Your postal city does not affect your jurisdiction. Centennial is entirely within Arapahoe County, and the applicable courthouse is the same regardless of what your mailing address shows.
How much will it cost to hire a family law attorney in Centennial?
Family law costs depend on the complexity of your Arapahoe County 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.
