About
Richard Travis is the managing partner for Travis Law Group and is committed to providing thorough, effective, compassionate legal representation to all of his clients. Over the 23 years of practicing law, Rich has earned a reputation as a tough, aggressive, ethical litigator. He is licensed in the states of Colorado, Massachusetts, and Maine. Rich started practicing law in a small Boston firm. Then in 1993, he joined the Army’s Judge Advocate General’s Corp (JAG). While in the JAG Corp, Rich provided legal assistance to soldiers and their dependents. He also represented Evans Army Community Hospital in cases involving medical malpractice. However, for most of his military career, Rich was a trial counsel and senior trial counsel. Rich has tried numerous jury trials involving, rape, assault, child abuse, assault, child abuse, involuntary manslaughter, and murder. After a successful career in the Army, he joined the 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office in Arapahoe and Douglas counties. There, Rich tried cases involving driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs and domestic violence. In 1999, Rich and Wayne Anderson formed Anderson & Travis. Since then, Rich has represented clients seeking a divorce, legal separation, parenting time, child support, and maintenance. Over the years, he developed an expertise in high conflict divorce. Rich has also successfully defended soldiers in courts-martial and represented clients who were injured either by a collision, professional negligence, or unsafe conditions. Richard’s core belief is that personal injury cases are not just about money, they are about helping clients get better. Getting better should be the client’s first goal. Both Rich and Wayne have obtained million dollar settlements. Along the way, they have ensured that the clients received the medical care they needed and the guidance on how to manage the money they received. In the wake of Wayne's recent retirement, Rich is taking the firm forward as Travis Law Group, to continue serving the clients that have come to depend on his expertise and performance as a stellar litigator. For those interested in Rich’s education, he began his college career at the University of New Hampshire where he played football for the Wildcats. In the second semester of his sophomore year, he transferred to Bates College where he played football for the Bobcats and ran track. Rich graduated from Bates College in 1989, with a double major in history and psychology. Afterwards, he traveled to Delaware to attend Widener University School of Law in 1992. There, he was selected to the Moot Court Honor Society and the Trial Team. Rich is also a member of the Colorado Trial Lawyers Association, the Inns of Court, and is the Chairman of the El Paso Country Family Law Bar. He lives in Colorado Springs with his wife and two children. He is an avid skier, mountain bike rider, and GS adventure rider. On a final note, you are looking for an attorney because you or someone you love needs help. One of Rich’s core principles is that the attorney client relationship is a special relationship built on candor, trust, and communication. He will communicate with full candor about your case and requests that you do the same with him. Rich is committed to providing personal and meaningful representation to his clients. Each client is provided his personal cell phone number and is encouraged to call, even after hours or during holidays, if they have an emergency and they need to talk to him immediately. Rich’s approach to the practice of law and his commitment to his clients is why over 90% of his cases are from referrals.

Mr Travis, Dauna & his team were exceptional! From the very beginning of my case they made me feel at ease, listened thoroughly and explained in detail to what possible avenues I had as options. I was dealing with the worst time in my life with two young children and they were able to calm my nerves, help me understand the legal system and ensure that before every single court date I knew exactly what to expect and that I was FULLY prepared going into it. They were prompt in returning phone calls/e-mails and I never felt like a burden when I needed to discuss something. My case lasted nearly 18 months due to the nature of case and some on-going issues with the situation however I can honestly say I believe that the outcome of my legal peace of mind was directly related to that fact that I hired the right lawyer. In the court room it was amazing to see how truly prepared he was, he knew my case inside & out. He had notes but barely needed to use them. It was abundantly clear to that he is able to articulate and is well thought out in his stances. I am so thankful I hired him and plan to do so if I would ever need to need legal services again. I highly recommend him!
The Travis Law Group is excellent. Mr. Travis and Donna handled my divorce case with integrity, competently, and presented the truth. The court and judge agreed with our position and my case was settled to my satisfaction. The Travis Law Group is to be commended for their due diligence and expertise. I have faith in our legal system based on their superior work and expertise. Travis Law has my deepest respect and appreciation for a job well done. Thank you.
Richard Travis and his staff did a great job, and I would recommend them! He explained all the steps and options and was very approachable, as was his staff.
Mr. Travis and his paralegal Dauna were wonderful in representing me in my divorce and child custody case. They were both very knowledgeable about laws, and detail oriented in preparing my case. I was extremely impressed with their explanations of all of my questions. Mr. Travis spent time talking with me about a situation that could have potentially gone negative on me with my kids, and helped me form a positive plan to present in my hearing. The outcome for me and my children could not have gone better. Their firm was also cost cautious. I will definitely hire Travis Law if I ever need legal representation in the future.
Travis Law Group was awesome!!! They represented me in my contempt case against my Ex-wife and I was very, very happy with the end result. They even helped me get a portion of my lawyer fees back ($3,000.00 to be exact) due to it being my Exes fault that I had to be in court again. Dauna Overly was excellent to work with. She was very responsive and made sure I was kept up to date on everything that was going on with the case with phone calls and almost daily emails and if I had any questions it was answered within a very short period of time, usually within an hour and less than 2. Megan Hersh was also very helpful and super responsive when it came to billing. Any question/s I did not understand about my bill was explained to me in detail and the reply to any such question was swift. The greatest part was when I ran out of cash they allowed me to pay off what I owed by working with me and establishing a payment plan. I will definitely recommend Travis Law Group as I am sure they will take care of other as they did me!! Thanks TLG!!!!!! A Happy Customer!
Rich and his staff were professional, trustworthy and committed. The firm went out of its way to make sure all bases were covered in my case. He listened to all my concerns and provided sound legal advice. I feel like a received the best possible outcome. I'm shocked at the negative review. It does not represent my experience in the slightest. If you need an attorney this is your guy!
We are very satisfied with the service. Richard immediately was on the case and got the threatening messages stopped, explaining that we had no liability in the matter. For peace of mind it was well worth the money and time. We were able to put the issue to bed.
I've been working with Rich now for 7 months and he and his staff have taken amazing care of me. I made a great decision and even though I'm hoping to not need a lawyer again - haha, I'll be using Rich for any future issues I do have.
I chose Rich Travis' Law Firm to represent me in a parenting-time case. Rich and his colleague Mitch were incredibly thorough, precise, and gave my case the specific attention that it required. Additionally, their paralegal Marissa Sterrett is incredibly sharp, organized, efficient, and has a keen eye for detail. This office asked insightful questions to gain a better understanding of the history of my case, which was very useful when I had to testify in court. Rich's staff gained my trust early in the process and took the very best care of my case to ensure a victory in the courtroom. They managed to do all of this while maintaining financial transparency and a desire to stay within my budget. Mitch presented options in my case with the legal and financial ramifications, so I had a lot of data to make my decisions. My only mistake was not hiring Rich Travis' office at the very beginning of my divorce process, I would have had much better results early on in my case.
Rich has taken care of two problems for us. An attempt to change visitation rights by our greatgrandson's grandparent and now assisting with a granddaughter's divorce situation. In both cases he kept us in the loop.
