Divorce & Separation Lawyers in zip code 80127 | 3 Available

I grew up in South Texas, near Corpus Christi, and earned a scholarship to the University of Texas, where I obtained a degree in Electrical Engineering.  After several years working as an engineer, I realized that I needed a more rewarding career, and attended law school at the University of Denver.  Despite having to work full-time, and having two young children, I decided that a career in law was my passion.. After graduating from law school in 1994, I began my career as a criminal defense attorney and then started practicing family law.   At first, I found family law somewhat frustrating because I saw people whose lives were in turmoil.  But working in criminal defense taught me that even when faced with the most negative of circumstances, we still have an opportunity to build a positive future.. Family law matters are often difficult, even if everything goes well.  For many, there is barely enough money to go around before the divorce, and now, most of their expenses double.  People who once pledged to spend their lives together now want to get as far away from each other as humanly possible.  The children, who are too often caught in the middle of a divorce, find the uncertainty in their lives troubling, and often react in negative ways.. I think the practice of family law requires a practical, results-based approach.  As one attorney told me early in my practice “Some lawyers forget that our job is to bring the case to an end.”  For many, that end will occur in a conference room; with a mediated resolution that is a fair compromise from both sides.  For others, that end can only come from having their day in court.. Every action that I take in a family law matter is intended to move you toward that end.  If it requires me to fight to obtain the resolution you deserve, then that’s the approach we will take.  If a calmer, more negotiated settlement is the goal, and I prefer to work that way, then will be our path.  But my approach to the case will always be reasonable, and I will present our case with skill, professionalism, and the highest standards of integrity.   I will aggressively move the case forward, but will avoid tactics that unnecessarily add to the costs of litigation. I will consider what is best for the children, and will present your case in the best possible light.  I will work to find the shortest path to settlement or resolution, so the healing process can begin, and you can begin working toward a new and better life.. Prior to becoming "Of Counsel" at The Harris Law Firm, I also worked as a hearing officer for a metro area county, listening to parties resolving disputes over real property taxes.. In my spare time, I’ll often be found in the mountains.  Depending on the season, I may be skiing, fishing, rafting, hunting with my longbow, or just enjoying time at altitude.  I may also be cooking, as fine dining is another one of my passions.  You can also find me in the stands at just about any sporting event in Denver as I enjoy football, baseball, basketball and hockey!

Being a family law attorney is more than a job to me — it's my calling. I spent years honing my legal skills at big corporate law firms in New York City, but I eventually found myself reeling from a divorce, and it was that experience that showed me the best use for my skills. I realized that could bring something fresh to family law and help ease the strain of those difficult legal situations for my clients. I wanted others to have a better experience navigating family law than I did.Following my passion, I joined a firm in Evergreen, Colo., as an associate attorney, practicing family and estate law in 2010. Four years later, I launched a solo practice, Andersen Law PC.I work hard every day to be a great attorney and advocate for my clients, and although I have a stellar back office team and network of advisers, I am always the point of contact for my clients. Launching Andersen Law PC has allowed me to offer clients more benefits than ever before. I can be more creative with my billing, offering full-service representation with affordable retainers, unbundled — pay-as-you-go — services and anything in between.To be available to my clients in ways that are convenient for them, I am always seeking new technology. I offer video conferencing, online document sharing, e-billing, credit card payment, text updates and automated document organization — all at affordable price points.The communities where I live and work have been instrumental in my success, and it's important to me to give back. I have served on the Jefferson County Access to Justice Committee, Evergreen Rotary Board, Evergreen Area Chamber Board, Lutheran Church of the Cross Council, Video Conferencing Pro Bono Program for Colorado, and I participate in mock trial coaching. I helped form and am on the board of the nonprofit Evergreen Chamber Community Fund and continue to serve the underserved with several hours of pro bono legal work each month.

Andersen Law PC.
12712 W Ken Caryl Ave.

A native Midwesterner, I was born in Macomb, Illinois, and was raised in Iowa and Missouri. I graduated Suma Cum Laude from Truman State University, with a BA in English and a minor in History, during which time I also studied abroad in Heidelberg, Germany. In 1987, I graduated with a law degree from the University of Colorado and after my graduation, worked at two general practice law firms.. In 1990, believing that law should be more personalized and less costly, I opened my own law firm which specializes in family law, high asset divorces, custody matters, grandparent rights, and estate planning. I am happily married to my husband Gary, and have two children, Mark and Jacquie. My interests include hiking with my two dogs, riding horses, tennis, scuba diving, and traveling, and am a member of Abiding Hope Lutheran Church in Littleton.. Besides the practice of law, I have served as a substitute judge for the municipal courts of Central City and Nederland.  I have also hosted a bi-weekly radio show on Castle Rock Radio called Family Law at Five, and am a monthly columnist for the Yampa Valley Voice. I am fluent in German and also speak some French.
