Divorce & Family Law Attorney in Littleton, CO
Helping You Navigate Divorce With Strength & Clarity
When a loved one passes away, their estate must be properly managed, distributed, and legally settled. Whether or not they had a will, this process—known as probate and estate administration—can be complex and time-consuming. At Hubert T. Morrow Associates, we help families in Littleton, Englewood, Highlands Ranch, Aurora, and across Arapahoe and Douglas Counties handle probate efficiently, ensuring assets are distributed according to the law while minimizing stress and complications.
Understanding Divorce in Colorado
Colorado is a no-fault divorce state, meaning that neither spouse has to prove wrongdoing to file for divorce. Instead, one party must only state that the marriage is irretrievably broken. However, divorce still involves critical legal decisions regarding property, finances, and children.
We handle
all aspects of divorce and separation, including:
- Divorce filings & legal separation
- Division of marital assets & debts
- Spousal support (alimony)
- Child custody & parenting time agreements
- Child support modifications & enforcement
- Post-divorce legal matters & representation
Whether your divorce is amicable or highly contested, we work to protect your rights and secure the best possible outcome.
Legal Separation vs. Divorce – What's Right for You?
Not all estates require probate. If the deceased person had assets structured to avoid probate (such as assets in a trust or designated beneficiaries), their estate may go through a simpler estate administration process.
We assist with:
- Non-probate transfers, including joint accounts, payable-on-death accounts, and beneficiary designations
- Trust administration, ensuring trustees fulfill their legal obligations
- Simplified estate procedures for small estates under Colorado law
Even if probate isn't required, estate administration involves
legal responsibilities, asset management, and tax considerations. Our firm ensures that these matters are handled efficiently and correctly.
How We Help With Probate & Estate Administration
Some couples choose legal separation instead of divorce for financial, personal, or religious reasons. A legal separation allows spouses to:
- Live separately while remaining legally married
- Establish child custody, support, and asset division agreements
- Retain
marital benefits, such as healthcare and tax advantages
Our firm can help you determine whether legal separation or divorce is the best path forward based on your unique situation.
Protecting Your Parental Rights – Child Custody & Support
Divorce can be especially difficult when children are involved. Our firm provides skilled legal representation in child custody and parenting time matters, ensuring that custody agreements:
- Prioritize the child's best interests
- Protect parental rights
- Establish fair child support arrangements
We handle custody negotiations, modifications, and enforcement, helping parents in Littleton, Englewood, Highlands Ranch, Aurora, and beyond create stable parenting plans that work for their families.
Representation in Past Divorce Matters
Life changes, and sometimes divorce agreements need to be modified or enforced. If you need legal support in post-divorce matters, our firm can assist with:
- Modifications to child custody or child support due to job changes, relocation, or financial hardship
- Spousal support modifications or enforcement
- Handling disputes over court-ordered agreements
Whether you're facing a new legal challenge or need to modify an existing divorce agreement, we are here to advocate for you.
