You can schedule a call with your attorney at any time – just shoot us an email!
For uncontested clients: we will have 3-4 scheduled meetings to make sure you’re on track and your questions are answered. Most clients don’t need additional appointments, but you can send an email if they need anything else.
Victoria is fierce, focused, and relentless. She will stand up for your rights and work tirelessly to prepare the strongest argument for your case. But unlike some attorneys who thrive on scorched-earth tactics, inflated fees, and endless conflict, Victoria prioritizes your best interests over ego or "winning at all costs."
She won’t pour gasoline on the fire or drag out the case just to pad a bill. She prefers to fight smart – not dirty – to protect your future, minimize unnecessary conflict, and keep the focus where it belongs: you and, if applicable, your children.
An uncontested divorce is the quickest and easiest way to end your marriage. It works only if you and your spouse have already agreed on everything—parenting time, child support, dividing property, and maintenance (alimony). No court battles, no attorney back-and-forth, and no mediation. Most uncontested divorces can wrap up in as little as 91 days, keeping things simpler for both you and your family.
Hiring an attorney for an uncontested divorce is like bowling with bumpers—more freedom and less risk. You and your spouse craft an agreement that works for you, while Victoria makes sure all the legal documents are accurate, meet state law, and are filed on time. This saves you from costly mistakes and future disputes. You might agree now, but life happens. Let’s do it right the first time.
No. In Colorado, lawyers can only represent one party to a divorce. However, your spouse can attend meetings or calls (with your permission) to stay informed and avoid confusion. They’re welcome to ask procedural questions, but Victoria can’t provide them legal advice. If they need extra help, Victoria can recommend a great attorney for a quick consultation.
While many of our clients choose to include their spouse in meetings, it is considered a waiver of attorney-client privilege, which can cause problems if you and your spouse end up not agreeing. You should talk to your attorney alone before making the decision to include your spouse.

Attorney-client privilege means anything you share with me privately about your case stays confidential. However, if you share those details with others—your spouse, friends, family, or on social media—it may waive that confidentiality, meaning things you say to lawyer could be used against you in court.

Yes, if you want to start your marriage with clarity and confidence. A prenup protects your assets, provides a financial roadmap, and makes any potential divorce easier and less costly. Think of it as relationship insurance—better to have it and not need it than the other way around.
You technically can, but it’s very risky. Just because you and your spouse sign a prenup does not mean the court will enforce it. There are many factors the court will consider when deciding whether to enforce a prenup, all of which are factors your lawyer can advise you on.
The sooner the better. You should start 3-6 six months prior to your wedding.
A contested divorce happens when spouses can’t agree on major issues like custody, support, or property division. These cases often involve negotiations, mediation, and/or a hearing.
Every case is unique, and contested divorces can vary widely in complexity. Hourly billing ensures you only pay for the time spent on your specific needs.
It depends on the complexity of the case and how quickly agreements are reached. Some cases wrap up in months; others can take over a year.
