Colorado Springs Family Law: Key Considerations

Navigating family law matters in Colorado Springs requires an understanding of the specific laws & procedures that apply in our state & local jurisdiction. Here are some key considerations:

Divorce

Aviso Law, LLC handles all types of divorce cases, including uncontested divorces (where both parties agree on all issues), contested divorces (where there are disagreements requiring court intervention), & high-net-worth divorces involving complex property division. Our attorneys are adept at managing the emotional & financial complexities of divorce, ensuring that your rights & assets are protected throughout the process.

Allocation of Parental Responsibilities (Child Custody)

Colorado courts prioritize the "best interests of the child" when determining custody arrangements. This involves evaluating various factors, including:

• The child's wishes (if they are mature enough to express them)
• Each parent's relationship with the child & their ability to provide a stable & nurturing environment
• The child's adjustment to their home, school, & community
• The physical & mental health of all individuals involved

Parenting Time (Visitation)

Parenting time schedules outline when each parent spends time with the child. Colorado courts encourage both parents to have significant involvement in the child's life, unless it’s not in the child’s best interests. Our legal team can help design a flexible visitation schedule that accommodates busy lives and fosters healthy parent-child relationships.

Child Support

Child support is calculated based on a statutory formula that considers both parents' incomes & the number of children. The goal is to ensure the child maintains a similar standard of living in both households. At Aviso Law, we assist in navigating the complexities of child support agreements and modifications, ensuring they reflect the child's changing needs and parental circumstances.

Division of Property

Colorado is an equitable distribution state, meaning marital property is divided fairly, not necessarily equally. Separate property, owned before the marriage or received as a gift or inheritance, is generally not subject to division. We provide thorough assessments of marital assets, assisting in equitable property division that considers both immediate and long-term financial impacts.

Spousal Maintenance (Alimony)

Spousal maintenance may be awarded if one spouse needs financial assistance after the divorce. Factors considered include the length of the marriage, each spouse's income & earning capacity, & the marital standard of living. Our lawyers strive to secure fair alimony arrangements, balancing the financial security of both parties involved.

Military Divorce

Military divorces involve unique considerations, such as the division of military retirement benefits & the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA). It’s essential to have an attorney familiar with military family law, like those at Aviso Law, LLC, who can navigate these complexities to protect your rights & benefits effectively.

Relocation

If a parent wants to relocate with a child, they must obtain court approval or the other parent's consent. The court will consider the child's best interests when making a decision. Aviso Law can guide you through the legal considerations and procedural steps necessary for a successful relocation application, ensuring that the child's welfare remains paramount.

Legal Separation

Legal separation is an alternative to divorce where couples remain legally married but live apart & resolve issues such as property division, child custody, & support. It can be a stepping stone toward divorce or a long-term arrangement. We assist clients in crafting legal separation agreements that address immediate needs & anticipate future changes.

Domestic Violence & Protection Orders

Colorado law provides protection for victims of domestic violence. If you are experiencing domestic violence, you can seek a protection order to prevent further abuse & ensure your safety & that of your children. Aviso Law is committed to helping victims secure necessary legal protections swiftly, offering compassionate support throughout the process.
