Common Family Law Concerns in Golden

Family law cases in Golden can involve a variety of legal matters, and having support from a lawyer who understands the local court system and community needs can make a significant difference. Below are some of the most common concerns we address:

Divorce

We help clients navigate both contested and uncontested divorces, guiding them through issues like asset division, parenting time, and financial support. Our Golden divorce attorneys understand the local court process in Jefferson County and help clients reach resolutions that support their future.

Property Division

Assets and debts are divided fairly, not necessarily equally. In Golden, real estate values can vary greatly between neighborhoods like Sixth Avenue West, Applewood, and the Table Rock area. We work with local appraisers and real estate professionals to evaluate home values and recommend practical resolutions.

Child Custody and Parenting Time

Parenting after separation can be challenging, especially when routines and school schedules are involved. We help create parenting plans that support your child’s stability and allow both parents to stay actively involved. Our goal is to develop practical, respectful solutions that prioritize your child’s well-being.

Spousal Support (Alimony)

Spousal maintenance decisions consider factors like income disparity and the cost of living in Golden, where household expenses and housing prices continue to rise. We help present financial information in a way that reflects the realities of living in Jefferson County.

Child Support

We guide clients through the calculation, modification, and enforcement of child support obligations using state guidelines and information that reflects Golden’s local cost-of-living and childcare realities.

Divorce Settlement Modifications

When life circumstances change, such as moving to a new home or switching schools, we assist in updating custody and support orders to reflect those changes.

Protection Orders

When safety is at risk, fast and effective legal action matters. We help clients request or respond to civil protection orders with urgency and discretion. Our team assists with filing, documentation, and representation to help you feel protected and prepared throughout the process.

Post-Divorce Modifications and Relocation Cases in Jefferson County

Life changes. Job transitions, new family dynamics, or shifting school and work schedules can all affect existing custody or support agreements. We assist clients in requesting post-judgment modifications that reflect current circumstances and help maintain stability for everyone involved.

Relocating with a Child in Colorado

Parents with primary custody must notify the other parent if they plan to move. If an agreement cannot be reached, the court evaluates how the relocation may impact the child’s well-being, access to school, and relationships with both parents. We’ve helped clients across neighborhoods in Golden adjust their parenting plans to address relocation challenges. Our team prepares and files modification motions that clearly outline the changed circumstances and explain why updates are needed.

  • Creating or modifying parenting plans that align with local school calendars and extracurricular schedules
  • Enforcing existing custody or visitation agreements through appropriate legal channels
  • Challenging outdated or unfair custody arrangements that no longer meet the child’s needs
  • Seeking protection orders when safety becomes a concern, including emergency filings with the local court

Every case is approached with a focus on creating a stable, supportive environment for your child.

    I used unbundled services with Kim Moreno & she was a great help! I used her for the end of my high conflict divorce and liked that she didn’t nickel and dime you for every little conversation. She was very prompt in getting the legal paperwork back to me that I wasn’t able to do myself. Highly recommend!

    "I was delighted with what they achieved"
    My divorce case involved a complex financial situation. Kim shepherded me successfully through the process to get the information and compensation I’d been seeking for a year on my own without any luck. They promptly returned my calls and emails, and pushed opposing counsel to get results. I was delighted with what they achieved with their courage and smart strategy. I highly recommend this law office, Moreno Family Law, and will work with them again if the need arises.
