Top Best Family Lawyers | 21012 Available

I am currently a senior associate attorney with the Bagley Law Firm, LLC, with a winning track record in – and out – of the courtroom. I have legal experience in a variety of practice areas, including divorce and child custody matters, criminal defense, probate, and personal injury.. Originally from Connecticut, I relocated to Colorado to attend the University of Colorado at Boulder where I earned Bachelor’s degrees in Philosophy and Sociology.  Upon graduation, I remained in Colorado to attend the University of Colorado’s School of Law, where I received the law school’s Deans Fellowship, a merit scholarship and non-profit grant.  I used this opportunity to conduct legal research as part of the university’s research staff, focusing my research on the newly developing areas of law which include open adoptions and surrogate pregnancies.. In addition to my legal work as an attorney, I have experience working as a Guardian Ad Litem, representing the interests of both adults and children who the courts have determined to be incapable of making legal decisions on their own.  In addition, I am a trained and certified mediator, a skill set which permits me to help opposing parties reach amicable solutions without the need of judicial involvement, often times avoiding the costly alternative of litigating a dispute at trial.. In addition to helping my clients achieve their goals, my interests outside of the legal sphere include fitness, hiking, snowboarding, and travel.

CEO Partner Steven O’Connor was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, where he obtained his undergraduate degree in Political Science from DePaul University. While attending law school, Steven returned to Chicago during his summers, to work at the Domestic Violence Legal Clinic (DVLC), in the heart of the city’s west-side. While with DVLC, Steven worked as a practicing law student, representing indigent clients in order of protection proceedings, as well as proceedings in divorce and custody. During his time with DVLC, Steven became familiar with the dynamics of domestic violence, and the experience informs his practice on a daily basis.. While enrolled at the top ranked, tier one University of Colorado Law School - Boulder, Steven focused his studies on family law topics, as well as the art and practice of legal negotiation, under the instruction of CU’s Scott Peppet. Steven practiced in the University’s civil practice clinic, where he oversaw immigration, social security disability, and family law cases. Upon graduation from the University of Colorado, Steven was awarded a certificate in mediation, as well as the University’s Family Law Certificate, which is commonly awarded to only a handful of students who have sought out specific curriculum related to the field. Steven was also named a Schiller, DuCanto, and Fleck family law scholar, and was awarded the CALI Award for Constitutional Process, achieving the highest marks in his class in constitutional studies.. Steven was licensed to practice law in Colorado after successfully passing Colorado’s Bar Examination, and began working with the law firm of Carlson and Carlson immediately thereafter. In addition to his work at the Carlson firm, Steven performs contract and pro-bono work through the Law Office of Eric A. Fisher, in Frisco, and Gendelman Law Group, in Denver. Steven is a frequent participant in the fifth judicial district’s “Legal Resource Day,” which provides free legal services to litigants across the I-70 corridor. He is also a volunteer with Colorado Legal Services.. In addition to his pro-bono work for the community, Steven is the municipal prosecutor for the town of Georgetown and City of Leadville, and was formerly the prosecutor for the town of Minturn, which is now handled by CEO partner Courtney Edwards. Steven is also the associate municipal judge for the town of Frisco. He has been a contributing author to “The Practitioner’s Guide to Colorado Domestic Relations Law” for three years, and has taught CLE’s to legal professionals when solicited to do so.. Steven’s practice is family law centric - however, many issues can arise in that context. He is well-educated in a number of areas of law, including estate planning, criminal defense, civil litigation, appellate work, and business practices in addition to his work in domestic relations.. Steven’s practice is now and has always been primarily a high-country based practice. Steven lives in Dillon, with his wife and high-school sweetheart Ashley, and their german wirehaired pointer, Nixon. Steven can be found on the weekends crewing his sailboat with his wife/captain Ashley on the Dillon Reservoir or backpacking in the summer season, and skiing Breckenridge and Vail’s back-bowls in the winter season

My name is Hadley Hindmarsh and my Rogers, Arkansas law practice is focused on family law--divorce, custody, child support, spousal support (alimony), grandparent guardianship and all that comes with it. Practicing family law is not for everyone. Helping clients who are often experiencing the most significant emotional turmoil of their lives is challenging; but years ago, I chose to focus on family law because I went to law school to help real people with real struggles everyday.. What I did not know when I first began practicing law was that one of the great joys of my life would come as an attorney ad litem.  As an attorney ad litem, I represent the best interests of children in high conflict child custody cases. These cases revolve around unresolved, ongoing conflict between parents. My job is to conduct an independent investigation in the custody case, advocate for the child's best interests and make recommendations to assist the parties in settling their disagreements or to the court at trial. Working with the children I represent is the best part of my job.. LIke you, I have a life outside my office. When not working, I am frequently driving one or more of my three boys around town, folding laundry or grilling chicken.  Fortunately, my husband and fellow attorney, Stuart Hindmarsh (Kutak Rock, LLP - Fayetteville) helps me out and brings me Reese's Peanut Butter cups on a regular basis.. If you would like to speak with me about helping you out, please call my office at for an appointment.

I advise and represent individuals in high-stakes matters involving financial disputes, including asset valuation, property division, monetary support claims, and white-collar investigations. I am a fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, an organization that promotes the highest degree of professionalism and excellence in the practice of family law. I am also a fellow of the International Academy of Family Lawyers.. My job is to give the best advice that I can to each client during the most stressful time of their life. I work hard to continue my education and training so I can provide superior guidance and information and help my clients make important decisions about their legal and financial situations. After law school, I completed SMU's year-long certified financial planner program to enhance my knowledge of investments, retirement, insurance, taxation, and estate planning and better serve my clients.. The statistics say that most cases settle by agreement. Most criminal cases end with a plea deal, and most lawsuits and divorces are resolved by agreement. But not all cases settle. I go to court and try the cases that don't settle. People seek me out when they have been falsely accused or when they are being bullied or pressured to take a bad settlement. Many times I am hired just weeks or even days before trial. My background is in trial work, and I am board-certified as a family law trial lawyer by the National Board of Trial Advocacy.. I spend a lot of time in seminars and other programs with plaintiff's attorneys and criminal defense lawyers. I have worked with psychologists and coaches across the United States to improve my advocacy skills. Following my training and my experience in family law, civil, and criminal cases, I have developed a process for handling cases that incorporates best practices from those fields. My process is designed to optimize the client's opportunities for favorable settlement while simultaneously preparing for trial. The process works. I have obtained favorable outcomes for my clients in negotiation, at trial, and on appeal.. My law firm has offices in Tulsa, Sapulpa, and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and in Bentonville, Arkansas.

My practice focuses mainly on domestic relations, but I also do quite a bit of estate planning work as well. In the DR realm, I handle anything from complex divorces to simple uncontested adoptions and everything in between, including paternity cases, post-divorce matters, domestic abuse cases, and guardianships. As for estate planning, I help clients plan for their and their families' futures by creating a personalized estate plan that best suits the client's needs. I also am well-versed in probate law.. My goal as an attorney is to represent my clients with integrity, professionalism, and respect. I am passionate about justice and always work to achieve the best possible outcome for my clients.. I have been practicing nearly ten years and am wanting to expand my client base. If you, a family member or friend are in need of an attorney, please don't hesitate to contact me. I offer one-hour consultations and am more than happy to meet in person, over the phone, or via Zoom/Skype/FaceTime if the client prefers. I can be reached by phone at or by email.
