You Do Not Deserve To Suffer For Their Negligence

Especially in cases related to divorce, lawyers need to be careful as they are checking all the boxes of Colorado law and working on behalf of their clients to the best of their ability. Common examples of family law malpractice include those related to:

  • Property division: Some assets, like pension funds, have very specific rules lawyers must follow upon property distribution in a divorce.
  • Spousal maintenance: To avoid paying high maintenance amounts, some spouses intentionally obtain jobs with lower wages during their divorce. Divorce attorneys should do serious investigation into the source of the paying spouse’s income and ensure the spouse is not underemployed.
  • Failure to inform: Your family law attorney may also fail to meet their duties by not making you aware of vital information like filing dates, state laws regarding your divorce and the various impacts of your actions in divorce proceedings.
