DENVER CHILD Custody & Visitation ATTORNEYS
Resolving issues vital to your child's future
Child custody is one of the most difficult issues a parent faces during divorce. A child custody agreement or, as Colorado law refers to it, a “Colorado Parenting Plan,” determines to what extent each parent is able to raise his or her children and make decisions regarding their upbringing. For many parents, the child custody proceedings are among the most crucial of all those that occur during a divorce.
The attorneys at Johnson Law Group, LLC, are dedicated to protecting your rights to raise your child in a healthy, thriving environment. Our Denver child custody visitation attorneys represent parents in Colorado in all aspects of child custody and visitation, including:
- Grandparent visitation
- Visitation rights
- Primary and joint custody arrangements
- Modification of custody and visitation orders
- Enforcement of orders
Decisions related to religion, education, and upbringing of the child
While we strive to secure and uphold the rights of our clients, we understand that, at the end of the day, custody disputes really boil down to what is best for the child. Our lawyers prioritize the emotional and physical needs of children above all else, and we will use both the law and the facts surrounding your case to secure an outcome that is best for all parties involved.


LEGAL CHILD CUSTODY DECISION-MAKING vs. PHYSICAL CUSTODY vs. VISITATION
When you first meet with a lawyer regarding child custody, one of the first things he or she will want to know is what your goals are for the process. More specifically, the attorney will want to know, do you want physical custody of your children, legal decision-making responsibility or both?
Colorado is one of many states that has done away with the blanket term “custody.” Today, parental rights fall into two distinct categories, the first being “decision-making” and the second being “residential parental responsibilities.” Parents may share both responsibilities, or the courts may determine that one parent is more capable of handling certain responsibilities more than the other.

SKILLED LITIGATION IN FAMILY COURT
In some cases, litigation is necessary to protect a child’s best interests. When one parent refuses to compromise or expresses hostility toward the other parent, negotiations fail. Sometimes a parent may even pose a danger to the child’s well-being. In these cases, litigation is the most appropriate forum for establishing parental rights. Our Denver child custody visitation attorneys often discourage litigation for the following reasons:
- A judge, who may or may not know you, your child or your circumstances, will be responsible for deciding what is in your child’s best interests.
- You will have little to no control over the outcome of your case.
- You do not have peace of mind that the judge will give your plan the time and consideration it deserves before finalizing it.
Our firm’s methodical approach to litigation enables you to feel confident that your children are protected and that your parental rights are secure. Though we understand that litigation — especially when it involves your children — can be nerve-wracking, we will keep you informed every step of the way and do our best to instill in you the confidence you need during these trying times.

Before working with Johnson Law. I had a previous attorney who completely screwed us over. He definitely only took us on for the money. He had no communication, mixed us up with different clients and so much more. So my husband and I were very scared working with a different attorney and getting screwed over again but we took the chance with Johnson law. We are currently working with Shana Velez, Kristina Contreras, and Julie Hernandez. After expressing my concerns because of the previous attorney they have kept amazing communication with me. They know who they are speaking to every time, they know my case, and they definitely don’t try to just take my money. They do their best to save me money as much as they can! These ladies have done such an amazing job with my case so far! 10/10 highly recommend! I will be back with another review once we are done working with them :)- Sierra S.

Shana Velazquez and Julie Hernandez helped me with my divorce and they were amazing. Shana was so good about explaining everything to me and calming my anxiety. Being 64 and going through a divorce was very daunting to me and I appreciate their help and kind words more than words can say. I highly recommend them!

Myles is the most amazing attorney to ever exist. He is always responsive. Cut me a couple deals with phone conversations. He was so helpful throughout the entire process and really cares for his clients. My family would not be whole if it wasn’t for him. I will forever be indebted to him and would refer anyone that needs a family law attorney to this practice. Thank you so much Myles.- Corey

I hired Johnson law group for an adoption matter. I worked with Daniel Sol as my attorney and his assistant Katie Wilson. They were with me every step of the way. Daniel listened to all of my concerns and helped to address all issues. Without their assistance and guidance, I would have had a much harder time making it through my case! I highly recommend Daniel sol, Katie Wilson and Johnson law group

Myles is the best representation for anyone who has to go through an APR case. From day 1 he was very welcoming and attentive to me and what I was going through. I always felt very respected by him and the other members of his firm. Myles always took the time to really investigate any information or things involved with my case. I knew he was truly invested in my best wishes. When there were deadlines that needed to be met, they always were. If I was ever confused about a process, paperwork or court proceedings Myles took the time to explain and make sure I was comfortable and understood what was going on. All the way through Mediation. He was an absolute success and I could not have asked for better representation. I will always recommend Myles to anyone in need an attorney.

I wasn’t familiar with the process of child custody but I must say not only did Myles and his team direct me properly but it was a process that wasn’t money motivated. Very professional group, I was constantly informed of any step or move needed to be made, and they took a very stressful situation and made it a very pleasant storm. Thank you Myles and Johnson group for everything!”- Dwight
