Divorce
Colorado Divorce Attorney
In Colorado, 'divorce' is called a dissolution of marriage. A dissolution is a dissolving or termination of the marriage, whereas a legal separation is just like a divorce, except the parties are still technically married. Attorney Jeff Alter focuses his practice on family law and can easily assist clients with both types of petitions.
A petition for dissolution of marriage or legal separation each follow the same case management procedures which involve a combination of general and court specific rules governing the case. They both can concern child custody and visitation, spousal support, child support, and separation, valuation and division of property.
Jeff will walk you through the process, informing you each step of the way as to what is coming and how to deal with it. Most importantly, Jeff will ensure that you understand your rights and he will protect them. A divorce or legal separation can involve many issues - It is important that you don't get overwhelmed.
