Anna represented me as my divorce attorney in a long and contentious divorce with complicated custody and financial topics. I have zero regrets trusting Anna's guidance and of her representation throughout the process. I very much appreciate her intelligence, experience, strategic thinking, emotional intelligence and confidence. She has spent countless nights, weekends and vacations advocating for me and protecting my rights to be with my children. Her dedication was invaluable. My divorce journey involved 5 hearings with the court and a final custody trial. I was proud to be represented by her in the trial and all throughout the process. She was confident, extremely knowledgable and very importantly, strategically, big picture focused. She guided me many times around the possibility of losing smaller battles (like a specific night or event with my children) with goal of winning the overall war to gain my rightful custody in the end. Which I did! She was always focused on being financially responsible with her time and ultimately my money. She always gave me options to minimize the costs while balancing the need to protect me as her client. I will forever be grateful to Anna and will always recommend her to represent a male or female side of a divorce. As a divorcing dad I appreciated her perspective and experience having represented both sides in her time helping others go through this difficult time.

She was straightforward, transparent with her billing, compassionate, and open to discussing possible options.

Anna Armas carefully managed our complicated and emtionally charged case skillfully. She is especially adept at assessing and advising strategies "to stick to" that have the best potential for the desired outcome.

Anna Armas is an amazing attorney. She was recommended to me by a close friend who worked with her in the past. Anna is compassionate, fair, and honest. She is a very good listener and easy to talk with. She does a great job explaining her and your next steps. I would definitely recommend her to any friend looking for an attorney.

I consulted with Anna on issues around my divorce, and she was incredibly helpful! Anna knows the law extremely well and walked me through what to expect in my particular situation. She helped me think through different scenarios and also got me to consider possibilities and options that I would not otherwise have known or thought about. She is encouraging and supportive and has a very warm personality and style, which helped me to feel good about moving ahead and tackling some difficult issues that I had been reluctant to tackle. I felt like she genuinely cared about me. Anna is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her!

I hired Anna Lisa Armas for a divorce consultation (ended up using a mediator; but speaking with her really helped me get through the process) and for temporarily suspending my ex spouse's parenting time. She was practical, and got everything that I could reasonably ask for in that situation without having to go to court. I would definitely recommend her and seek help from her again if needed.

Anna Armas went above and beyond to represent me in a very difficult situation. Not only did she treat me with respect but conducted herself with the utmost integrity. Her knowledge of family law is outstanding and is further supplemented by her prior professional experience working within the justice system of Boulder county. My outcome was far better than I initially expected.

Anna was great at unpacking the details of my post decree case and was always one step ahead with her strategies for my case. She and her paralegal Kelly were exceptionally thorough with all of the depositions, filings and exhibit books. In Court, Anna was steady and organized as she delivered. Anna is trustworthy, intelligent, and caring.
