Aggressive & high-conflict divorce questions

Every case is different. These are the questions Fort Collins clients ask most in the first call.

My spouse already hired a lawyer. What should I do?

Call a lawyer before you respond, sign anything, or agree to temporary arrangements. Early decisions can be hard to undo.

Can I get a protection order during my divorce?

Yes. If you’re facing threats or abuse, a civil protection order can be requested separately from or alongside the divorce.

Will an aggressive approach cost more?

Contested cases usually cost more than agreed ones. Your attorney will explain where fighting is worth it and where it isn’t.

What if my spouse won’t follow the court’s orders?

We can file for contempt or enforcement, which can lead to make-up parenting time, fees, or other penalties.
