Understand How Parenting Time Is Decided in Adams County
Nothing in a Commerce City family law case matters more than your time with your kids. Colorado law calls it the allocation of parental responsibilities, but for you it is bedtimes, school mornings, and holidays. Johnson Law Group helps parents protect those things with steady guidance, treating your child’s stability as the North Star of the whole case.
Our Commerce City office is on East 104th Avenue, serving families across Adams County. Parenting schedules rarely leave much free time, so we meet at the office, by video, or by phone to fit around yours. You choose the format that works.
Family Law We Handle in Commerce City
Parenting cases connect to nearly everything else in family law, from support to relocation. For the legal framework itself, start with how parental responsibilities are decided in Colorado. These related matters often come with a Commerce City parenting case:
- Divorce: How dissolution of marriage works in Colorado, from filing to final decree.
- Contested divorce: What happens when spouses cannot agree, from temporary orders to final hearing.
- Uncontested divorce: The streamlined path when both spouses agree on every major issue.
- Alimony: Colorado’s approach to spousal maintenance, from eligibility to duration and modification.
- Child support: Setting, modifying, and enforcing support for your children.
- Paternity: Establishing legal parentage and the rights and duties that follow.
- Property division: Dividing marital property and debt, including homes, businesses, and retirement.
- Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements: Agreements that define property and expectations before or during marriage.

The 17th Judicial District covers both Adams County and Broomfield County, but each county has its own courthouse, and Adams County family law cases are heard at the Adams County Justice Center in Brighton. From our East 104th Avenue office, the Justice Center is roughly 20 miles north via US-85, a drive of about 25 to 30 minutes. Colorado’s e-filing system handles most case documents, so plan to meet us in Commerce City or by video for strategy and to appear in Brighton only when the court requires it.

Why Commerce City Couples Trust Johnson Law Group
The first call is not a sales call. We listen to what is happening in your family and what you want to protect. You will get a candid assessment of where you stand, even when it is not what you hoped to hear.
We build your case the way you would want it built. Organized records, clear strategy, and early preparation, not posturing. That work starts on day one so nothing catches you flat-footed later.
A client portal that keeps you in the loop. Real-time alerts, case milestones, and billing visibility, included at no additional cost. You will always know where your case stands.
High-conflict and long-distance parenting cases are familiar ground. Relocation requests, interstate disputes, and parents in different states come through our doors regularly. With a footprint across Colorado, Illinois, and Wyoming, we can work a case that does not stop at the state line.
No outcome guarantees. Only preparation. No lawyer can promise you a result, and you should be cautious of anyone who does. What we commit to is the preparation, strategy, and communication that give your case its strongest footing.
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, with no lecture and no scare tactics.
- We map your next step. You will leave knowing what comes next: filing, responding, gathering records, or taking time to think it through.
