Practice Areas: Family

A Colorado native, Krista earned a bachelor’s degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School, the nation’s premier journalism school, writing and reporting for NBC-TV, The Denver Post, and New York Newsday before becoming a Pulitzer-nominated reporter for Knight-Ridder Newspapers. She then worked extensively in marketing and public relations in California’s Silicon Valley, launching a variety of high-tech companies and products before returning to Colorado to run her own PR consultancy with clients such as Apple and Sony.. Later, Krista had the opportunity to fulfill a lifelong interest in law, going to school at night to earn a law degree while simultaneously working. At the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, she graduated near the top of her class and received numerous awards for scholastic excellence and legal writing and research. While in law school, Krista worked at Jefferson County District Attorney’s Office, Colorado Court of Appeals, U.S. Attorney’s Office, U.S. District Court, and served as a law clerk to former U.S. Attorney Michael J. Norton.. After law school, she was hired as a law clerk to a federal judge at the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, one of the most prestigious and highly sought roles for new lawyers. There, Krista handled the court side of hundreds of federal lawsuits, steering them from their filing through final orders. She also learned the art of mediation by participating in extensive settlement conferences with the judge for whom she clerked.. Despite having many opportunities to take the typical route from her clerkship into complex civil litigation, Krista began her family law work at a leading boutique law firm focused exclusively on family law matters, establishing and then deepening her understanding of best practices.. She later opened her own firm to concentrate her efforts more fully on putting children first, seeking cost-effective solutions, and preserving as much civility as possible for people affected in all areas of family law.. Krista’s family law experience is vast, spanning straightforward and amicable divorce through international cases with complex jurisdictional and criminal elements. Through careful case-strategy planning and execution and a relentless attention to detail, Krista also has an excellent track record of settling cases, taking only the most extreme cases all the way to trial. Please see these testimonials from former clients.. Krista’s current practice engages her directly in every facet of the firm’s cases involving issues of marriage and parental rights. Because of her commitment, however, to children, she spends the vast majority of her time serving as a child advocate to represent directly or provide input to courts, parents, and counsel on children’s best interests. She also speaks nationally and locally on child-advocacy issues, teaching other attorneys and judicial officers ways to best meet children’s needs. She has been a leading voice for the use of child legal representatives in domestic cases, bringing the role to courts throughout Colorado and encouraging the practice nationally. She serves too as a child and family investigator, mediator (having completed mediation and negotiation training through Harvard Business School and the National Association of Certified Mediators), a parenting coordinator and decision maker, and as a guardian ad litem. She is trained and authorized to practice in these roles by the Office of the Child’s Representative as well as the State Court’s Administrative Office as well as being licensed to practice law in Colorado and Wyoming.
