  The process of adoption in Colorado can be exciting and rewarding.

Drexler Law provides not only knowledge and experience in adoption proceedings but also straightforward analysis of the process and whether any roadblocks or challenges exist to delay or complicate the adoption. If you are considering adopting or assuming guardianship, call one or our Colorado Springs family lawyers today to schedule a consultation.

• Child Custody

  Colorado stopped using the legal terms "custody" and "visitation" some time ago. Colorado statutes now refer to three primary parental responsibilities: parenting time (physical custody), decision making (legal custody) and child support. At Drexler Law, we are here to help you determine each aspect of child custody with the goal of reaching an agreement that ensures your child is protected. We help clients with all types of family law matters in Colorado Springs and the surrounding areas.

• Common Law Marriage

  At Drexler Law, we have extensive experience in handling dissolutions of common law marriages in Colorado Springs and the nearby areas.

We also have experience in handling cases involving same-sex marriages, civil unions, and same-sex parenting or custody matters.

• Contempt & Enforcement

  When the court orders a party to perform a certain action such as paying child support, following a parenting plan, or even submitting documents to divide assets or property, the failure to comply with the order may rise to the level of a contempt of court, commonly referred to as contempt. At Drexler Law in Colorado Springs, our experienced attorneys are here to assist you whether you have been accused of contempt or need help enforcing an existing order.

• Divorce

  The grounds for obtaining a divorce or legal separation is that the "marriage is irretrievably broken." Only one party needs to testify that the marriage is irretrievably broken and that counseling or therapy would not lead to reconciliation. At Drexler Law, we know that going through a divorce can be difficult. We are here to help you determine how your situation will play a role in the final outcome. We serve clients in Colorado Springs and the surrounding areas.

• Legal Separation

  When couples reach a point where they can no longer find a way to work things out and stay together, it may become necessary to dissolve the marriage. At Drexler Law, our mission is not to divorce couples, but to help those who find themselves in a situation where a relationship or marriage is no longer working out. Whatever the reason for the deterioration of the relationship, you must know your options before jumping into a divorce or legal separation. The first analysis is which path is the more appropriate option: divorce, legal separation or annulment.

• Domestic Violence

  Domestic violence can occur in any situation, though we typically see domestic violence immediately before or during a divorce, custody battle, or during times of financial or emotional distress including the loss of a job or similar life-changing event. In some cases, the stress is so overwhelming that a person who has not exhibited signs of aggression or abuse can snap or experience their own uncontrolled behavior that leads to poor decision-making or a lack of impulse control. In these cases, it is crucial that you and your family seek protection using legal means. Drexler Law has experience helping victims protect themselves.

• Protection Order & Restraining Order

  To obtain a temporary restraining order, a person only needs to allege that they were hurt or threatened by someone and that they are likely to do it again if no order of protection is imposed. No proof or evidence is required to support any such allegations — just the requesting party's affidavit or sworn statement. A party must first request a temporary restraining order (TRO) or a temporary protective order (TPO) from the court and serve the other party with notice of the order if it is granted.

• Probate & Estate Planning

  Many people are guilty of putting off estate planning for longer than they should. For many of us, estate planning is something we hope to get to but never seems urgent. When estate planning seems urgent, however, it may be too late. The purpose of estate planning is to create guidelines for your loved ones and others about how you want your assets, medical care, and other matters to be handled when you are no longer here or no longer able to make those decisions for yourself. At Drexler Law in Colorado Springs, we can help you create the sound legal documents you need to ensure your wishes are upheld.
