Denver High-Conflict Child Custody Lawyer
Denver High-Conflict Child Custody Attorney
Our Denver High-Conflict Child Custody Lawyers Provide the Help You Need.
Colorado is a no-fault divorce state, so a Denver divorce doesn’t require proving wrongdoing, only that the marriage is irretrievably broken. That said, no-fault doesn’t mean simple: property division, parenting time, and support still have to be resolved before the Denver District Court will finalize your decree.
We represent Denver clients through every stage of divorce, from the first filing through negotiated settlement or, when necessary, trial.
Family Law We Handle in Denver
A Denver high-conflict child custody case often pulls in several connected issues. Our core Child Custody page walks through how that process works under Colorado law; below are the related matters we handle, each covered in depth on its own Denver page:

- Child Custody: Decision-making, parenting time, and post-decree modifications.
- Child Support: Initial orders, modifications, and enforcement.
- Contested Divorce: Divorces where custody, support, or property remain unresolved.
- Divorce Mediation: Resolving divorce issues outside of a courtroom hearing.

Why Denver Families Trust Johnson Law Group
The first call isn’t a sales call. You’ll 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’d do next if we were in your position.
We prepare Denver high-conflict custody cases thoroughly. These cases rarely follow a template, so we start with what actually matters for your kids’ safety and stability, build a strategy around it, and document the case as we go.
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.
We’re staffed for cases that don’t fit a template. A closely held business. Executive compensation. A relocation request. An interstate jurisdiction question. Most Denver family cases do not require any of that. When yours does, that is the kind of work we know how to do.
A strategy built around what you actually need. Every case starts with your specific goals. We document the case thoroughly and prepare for every phase before it arrives, so you are in the strongest possible position when it counts.
What to Expect When You Call
Our consultation is built around three things you need before any decisions get made:
- We listen first. Tell us what is going on. 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.
