Serving Denver and beyond Custody Attorney Denver

I Am in Good Hands Apr 3, 2026

Ursula was an absolute sweetheart. She was attentive to the details I provided that I found significant to the case, and she was receptive to everything. As someone who has experienced severe distress in my custody case, I truly feel that I am in good hands.

You Are in Good Hands With The Harris Law Firm Mar 3, 2026

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Erika Carter and Lea Ann Lyster, LLP, at The Harris Law Firm. This comes from my full year of working with them. Erika Carter handled my emergency order and was extremely efficient. During a very stressful time in my life, she moved quickly, kept me informed, and made me feel supported the entire way through. The second part of my case was handled by Lea Ann Lyster, LLP. She took care of my mediation and every motion in between, including a change of custody, child support, sworn financial statements, and helping draft a new parenting plan to clean up older, confusing orders. We were dealing with a very aggressive opposing attorney, and she handled it calmly and professionally. She never pushed her own opinions into my parenting plan unless I specifically asked for her advice, which I really appreciated. I was prepared to go to trial knowing LLPs can now litigate gave me a lot of confidence. You are basically getting someone with over 20 years of experience at a more affordable rate than a traditional attorney, which truly mattered to me. I even signed both Erika Carter and Lea Ann Lyster to my trial so certain parts could be divided, which helped save money. Having that option made a big difference. Overall, I was very happy with The Harris Law Firm. If I needed emergency advice and one of my attorneys was in mediation or at trial, there was always someone available to step in temporarily. I actually had to use that during a very scary moment in my case, and they responded right away. Their response time was impressive. I never waited more than 24 hours, and most of the time it was much quicker. If they were unavailable, their automatic replies clearly explained when I would hear back and who to contact if it was urgent. The billing department was also kind, flexible, and easy to work with. They were understanding and helpful, which meant a lot. I even received occasional check-in calls to make sure I was happy with how everything was going. Whoever created their client service model really thought of everything. I have never worked with lawyers who were this responsive and organized. They were absolutely worth every penny, and I do not have a high income. I am truly grateful for their professionalism, support, and dedication. You are in good hands with The Harris Law Firm. Trust the process.

She is FANTASTIC in dealing with teenage rights Oct 3, 2025

Erika Carter and the Harris Law Firm are not only beautifully experienced, but the care and the attention to details are unlike anything I have ever experienced. She is beyond knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, caring, but she also knows her stuff, and fights for what’s right. Her style of communication is so very human and welcoming. She is FANTASTIC in dealing with teenage rights during and after divorce. If I could give 20 stars I would. Thank you Erika and the Harris Law Firm team! J&B❤️

I Will Be a Life-Long Client Oct 2, 2025

The Harris Law Firm is wonderful. I asked for legal help in 2020, at the start of the pandemic when my life became riddled with obstacles and hardships while coparenting. My lawyer at the time, Erika Carter (now partnered with HLF), worked with me, she listened, and most of all, she cared. I had a newfound confidence in my personal life and had legal documents to protect me in the future. Five years later, I return with even bigger issues, more children, and less funding than before. The Harris Law Firm worked with my financial circumstances, giving me the best option for what I could afford. My paralegal this time, Lea Ann Lyster, represented me in court and guided me for a hearing in court. I not only got what I asked for, but I got what I deserved. I won. Through tears of pain, stress, and frustration came tears of joy. I will be a life-long client, and would recommend them in a heartbeat.

Fearless and Sharp in Court Apr 17, 2025

I cannot say enough good things about my lawyer Jolyn Belk. She understood coercive control on a deep, nuanced level—not just legally, but emotionally and psychologically, which was everything in my case. She was a total baddie in court—fearless, sharp, unshakable, and completely on top of every single detail. Nothing slipped through the cracks with her. I won parental decision-making. At the same time, she brought a grounded, compassionate presence that made me feel truly supported through one of the hardest seasons of my life. She held my story with care and fought for me with fierce clarity and precision. If you are navigating a high-conflict custody battle, domestic violence and coercive control or dealing with post-separation abuse, this is the advocate you want by your side. She’s tough, wise, and absolutely brilliant. I will be forever grateful.

Thank you, Jason! Apr 8, 2025

Jason Cruz with Harris Law helped us navigate a very difficult and nuanced custody case with our non-biological granddaughter after her mother passed away from cancer at the young age of 27. Jason did a great job helping us balance the emotions surrounding the case with the best interest of our granddaughter with applicable law. He advised us well, kept us informed, yet was sensitive and helpful keeping our legal bills in check. Most importantly we were able to achieve our desired outcome becoming our granddaughter's legal guardians. Jason, thank you!!! We are forever in your debt. Brad & Robin
