Note to self – hold my tongue if I ever preside over a family law case (which is unlikely, as I have no intention of ever being a judge). And no matter what, no matter how bad the parents may be behaving, it does NOT justify misbehavior from the bench….
As the nation gradually reopens, even while the Coronavirus pandemic still rages, Colorado is no exception. Last Sunday, Governor Polis signed an executive order relaxing the state’s stay-at-home order. (For full coverage of the Covid-19 stay-at-home order and up-to-date analysis of judicial orders & openings, see our blog post Colorado Family Law Services…
Congratulations Judge Mitchell Helton It’s always satisfying to see the 4th Judicial District recognize “one of our own” by selecting her as a district court judge, if for no other reason then at least we’ll have a judge with a domestic relations background who can “hit the ground running” and…
Judges Need Educating Too! No matter how smart they are, judges have to learn the law somewhere (and at the risk of looking like I’m sucking up, I continue to marvel at how judges can retain so much knowledge about so many different areas of the law). Like any other…
It’s great to live and work in a thriving, growing county. The population of El Paso County, Colorado is growing at a steady clip, and has doubled in the last 35 years to 700K – the second-largest county in the state. I’ve seen major change in the 23 years I’ve lived here,…

Lots of swaps between divisions, with a few new faces, including a couple of our friends and colleagues from…
“I was impressed by Graham Law in general but most impressed with Brian Boney. Brian is an excellent family law attorney. Attentive, detail-oriented, and hard-working, Brian surpassed my expectations for representation. He was easy to work with and gave excellent advice on how to navigate a complicated process. Highly recommended.”

“Where do I begin? Well AFTER have a consultation with another attorney (who made me feel as though I was undeserving of his expertise) I was extremely apprehensive when coming to Graham Law. This was immediately squashed when Carl shook my hand. Carl is the most professional , just basically awesome person that I have met in quite a long time . He broke my situation down in a way that I could easily understand it . TOP NOTCH PEOPLE!! I would recommend Graham Law to ANYONE!”
