I was referred to this firm by a close family friend, on the merits of the firm's focus for Child Custody and the issues that can arise in a contentious separation/divorce (which is exactly the situation I regrettably found myself in..). From listening to my worries and concerns at the beginning of the process, to walking me through the many scenarios that could unfold, helping me understand the difficulties that might lay ahead in my particular situation, Morgan Paterson was exceptional. From assisting me in understanding financial equations in my state, assisting me with the restraining order needed against the other party and those impacts to logistics of future custody exchanges, and to the respect and succinct timeframes as Covid changed the court appearance landscape over the year; Morgan was diligent, professional, and thorough. She advised me often times on the desired outcome, the process along the way, and the steps, as a concerned parent, that I could take to ensure my desired outcome. As I wanted to make sure of 50/50 custody as I believed both parents should be in the child's life( at least in our situation), Morgan led me expertly through the minefield of headaches laid down by ex. She helped me to understand how to make decisions that I felt were in the best interest of my son, and on some days, really helped me to understand the difference between my initial response and the more correct response. Though it was never a service I wanted to know, I believe I got the best service possible in one of the most difficult times of my life. With succinct and professional communication throughout the process, I felt prepared and able to proceed in each step along the way. Not just representing the firm that Morgan works for, but her continued professionalism has been top notch, and represented the industry to level I had not expected. Truly a process that allowed me to continue on focusing on my life and being the best dad I can be to my son; without an unreasonable amount stress that is inherent in divorce cases. I hope not to ever need an attorney in this field again, but would, without hesitation specifically hire Morgan Paterson. I will always recommend her specifically, and the firm she works for, to anyone I know in the Denver Metro area that might need to get advice or hire an attorney for family court issues.
From the moment Morgan took over our Child support case she was very helpful and informative. Morgan was there to help us and made sure all of our worries, concerns or questions were addressed and answered. The communication was there and she took us serious. Our case is now closed and to our satisfaction. I will recommend Morgan to anyone that might be in the same situation we were in and/or whatever services anybody might need help with that she specializes in, Morgan is the attorney to hire. Thank you, Morgan!
