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.

    "thank you so much Megan and Christian."
    Where to begin. I cannot even begin to express how wonderful Megan and Christian were throughout my divorce aka the worst time in my entire life. I had absolutely no idea what to expect. I was lost, confused and distraught to say the least. This was truly such a horrible and heartbreaking time in my life. Megan and Christian, the ultimate girl team, were absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. They guided me through a very difficult divorce with professionalism, compassion, and clear communication every step of the way. From our first meeting, I felt supported and informed they explained everything in detail and always made time to answer my questions. They took the time to explain every step, answered my endless questions with patience, and made sure I never felt alone or lost in the process. They were also contentious of their time because hello, lawyers are expensive. Their knowledge and attention to detail gave me real confidence throughout the process. They were fair, transparent about fees, and genuinely cared about helping me reach the best outcome possible. They handled this case with both skill and empathy. Also, we reached the best possible outcome. They were just great. 10/10 cannot recommend enough. Important: I truly felt that they cared about my well-being and my future, not only just the outcome of the case. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much Megan and Christian.

    "They’ll fight for you and get the job done."

    I want to share my honest experience with my attorney Megan Fiesinger and my paralegal Christian Cunningham.

    After being in a 16-year marriage, I needed help to finally move on. As an immigrant married to a U.S. citizen, the process felt overwhelming, especially with valuable assets involved and an uncooperative spouse. But thanks to these two incredible women, I never felt alone.

    Megan and Christian fought for me day and night. They listened, gave sound advice, and guided me every step of the way — even when my husband tried to make things as hard as possible. They showed me strength, patience, and how to handle such a difficult situation with confidence.

    Although the divorce could have been completed in five months, the delays caused by his refusal to cooperate made it take longer. But through it all, they remained patient, supportive, and persistent — and in the end, we got it done.

    I am beyond grateful and finally feel free and at peace. These amazing, powerful women helped me through one of the hardest times in my life, and I’ll forever appreciate their compassion and dedication.

    If you’re going through a tough situation, don’t hesitate to trust them. They’ll fight for you and get the job done.

    "They Go Above and Beyond!"
