Splitting up your shared property in a divorce must be done fairly in Colorado, not necessarily equally. We are here to help determine what would be equitable and argue before the court for it if need be.

You do not need to prove any grounds for divorce in Colorado. The spouse filing for divorce must simply tell the court that the marriage is “irretrievably broken.” There is no need to prove that there was infidelity, abuse, or gross financial mismanagement to get a divorce.

Colorado’s statute specifically states that although it recognizes that shared parenting isn’t always appropriate, generally, it is in the best interest of all parties to encourage frequent and continuing contact between each parent and the children. The court then hears evidence to determine individually what would be best for the children in each case.  Many factors, such as domestic violence, substance abuse, work schedules, and living location, affect the court’s decisions.

Neither mothers nor fathers have priority in child custody cases. The court prioritizes the child's best interests when making custody orders, emphasizing the child's needs over those of the parents.

All assets and debts accumulated while married are presumed to be marital property. There are a few exceptions, including inheritances and gifts. However, even inheritances or gifts can become marital property if used in certain ways, such as purchasing a joint asset. During a divorce, the court will divide all marital property equitably.
