I was blindsided by a parental rights challenge and needed immediate help. I found Bradley Devitt Haas and Watkins and called to schedule a consultation. I met with Andrew Haas the following day and he listened intently to my situation and agreed to take me on as a client. Throughout a long seven month process Andrew and his paralegal, Ann Bremer, were professional and compassionate to my situation and never failed to impress me with their ability to stay on top of everything and file everything in a timely fashion. Andrew is a talented attorney who was extremely easy to deal with. He knows what he is doing and his experience and confidence in my case saved me money that I know other attorneys would have not. Ann is amazing at taking the time to send reminders out and even was able to spend time on the phone with me to help me understand the process when Andrew wasn't available. In the end things worked out as Andrew had hoped and we were able to settle out of court. I am in a better situation and most importantly my daughter got what she wanted...more time with dad. I can't thank Andrew and Ann enough for everything they did. I highly recommend this team if you happen to need a family law attorney. I initially thought I could handle everything on my own but once everything got started I realized I would have been overwhelmed and it would have been a bad outcome.

I had been recommended Andrew through a friend of a friend whole lives in the Denver area, I am in Arizona. I had found out that I had a 10 year old daughter, after 6 months of fighting mom in Arizona for child support, which I initiated, I had been in contact with Andrew more than a few times throughout the process in Arizona. He never charged me a dime until I had officially hired him in October '18 to represent myself for establishment of parental rights and visitation. Andrew had taken everything I dealt with during the child support process (some of the nastiest, most hate filled contact with mother I had ever seen anyone I knew go through) and continued to build a case in Colorado and helped me fight to be in my daughters life and pursue a relationship with her. He even caught the blunt end of a few phone calls from my daughters mother as well, he was very professional, courteous and well mannered throughout the entire case. His attention to detail is second to none. Both he and his paralegal, Ann, always kept me informed of anything that was done or processed on my case. Both were and are the reason the case went in my favor. Andrew always made sure to steer me in the right direction and remind me to continue to be the bigger person in the case and stay focused on the topic at hand, time and relationship with my daughter. He was sure to bring up key points to the judge and make sure he was informed of things that were not my fault, I had tried talking to and seeing my daughter numerous times during the process and mother wouldn't let me and tried telling the judge I wasn't trying. Andrew quickly jumped in and made sure the judge knew the truth. If ANYONE is looking for the best family lawyer in the Denver area, I promise you will not be anything less than extremely satisfied with Andrews knowledge and professionalism. Andrew and Ann, I have told you both numerous times, thank you. I truly mean that. I was sure during the start that I was on the losing end of this but both of you made sure it didn't go that way. It is because of you that I will have a relationship with my daughter, one that I so desperately wanted. THANK YOU!! -Taylor

I recently went through an awful divorce. Things just kept getting worse in such a short amount of time. I knew I needed to hire an attorney ASAP! Mr. Hass was my attorney during my divorce and I was extremely grateful to have a knowledgeable, experienced, and truly understanding attorney. He exceeded my expectations and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone I know or don't know. I couldn't have gone through this divorce without Mr. Hass. Thank you so much!!!

In the mid-1990's I was facing a very difficult situation concerning child custody and child support. After being referred to Mr. Haas by a professional colleague I engaged his services. Over the coming weeks and months I was most favorably impressed by the work product generated by Mr. Haas -- who found obscure but relevant case law to support my position. As a result I prevailed in the matter and I've Andrew Haas to thank for doing so. Not only is Andrew highly competent and knowledgeable but he has genuine empathy and compassion for his client. This unusual combination of qualities makes for a rare find in the legal profession; where so often competence is nominal at best and work output is driven almost solely by the bottom line. In the twenty years I've known Andrew I've never had reason to change my opinion and I highly recommend this attorney to anyone seeking the best of the best in family law.

I felt very comfortable with Andrew the moment I met him. Going through this process is not easy and his guidance and support from a legal perspective has been a saving grace. Andrew responds to questions quickly and directly; I mostly communicate via email although he answers phone calls in the same way. He has integrity, for me this quality is very important.

Andrew knows how to fight hard for his client, without escalating fees and conflict through unnecessary litigation. In my particular case, he protected my financial and parental rights in an ethical, reasonable manner. It was clear from the beginning that he commands a high level of respect from PREs, mediators, and Judges. I am pleased with the outcome Andrew helped secure, and things would have looked far different without his help. Interestingly, during the 13 months Andrew handled my case, my ex-wife went through three attorneys.

Review: I obtained Mr. Andrew Haas in July of 2012 to represent me and my son in a Parental Responsibility & Parenting time court case. Mr. Haas did an excellent job representing me and most importantly put the best Interest of my child ahead of everything. He communicated with through out the case effectively and in a timely manner. He was organized, professional and had a great sense of what needed to be done. He was very patient in listening, viewing and respecting my thoughts and concerns. He was even more effective in court. Mr. Haas presented himself and our case with professionalism and complete understanding of the court system and his profession. I was very pleased and comfortable with the outcome of the case and both Mr. Haas and the Judge put my son's best interest first. I would recommend Mr. Haas and his team to anyone that needs a great attorney. thank you Andrew

My attorney is patient, understanding, and fought for my personal safety in court, upholding a protection order against a skilled, narcissistic sociopath. Mr. Haas caught him in a number of lies on the stand, and he did so with such skill that I had wished that the entire world was watching him. I was very proud. Keep in mind that he had to wade through an entire year of my red-lettered emails, my frustrations with the batterer and the system, my PTSD bubbling on the surface. He and his staff stayed patient and kind, never leaving me feel dumb, ignored, or like any single person in that entire office didn't care. They were each so good to me and my daughter, that I still bring them plates of brownies and cookies sometimes. Mostly, he is allowed me to make payments. He recognized my extreme need for his talents and experience, and promised not to cut me off mid-trial or anytime heinous like that. He kindly kept each promise he made. He is an upstanding, realistic, caring, wonderful human being -- who has the capacity to whip-out glimmering and mighty rows of shiny points when necessary. He is not only the perfect attorney, but he is also someone for whom I will always thank God.
