Joe Soloway

Joe Soloway is a Family and Criminal Law attorney at The Harris Law Firm in Colorado, dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate challenging legal matters with clarity, compassion, and practical, results-focused solutions.

Joe’s interest in the law began early, inspired by watching reruns of Matlock and Perry Mason with his mother and becoming fascinated by how attorneys protect and advocate for their clients. He earned his bachelor’s degree from Metropolitan State University of Denver and his J.D. from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, graduating in the top three of his class with public good distinction. He won the DU Advocate’s Cup mock trial competition and went on to become a national mock trial finalist, achievements that demonstrated his early talent for advocacy and courtroom work.

What began as academic excellence translated into real-world effectiveness when Joe entered practice. As a criminal defense attorney, he spent years in public service honing the litigation skills he now brings to family law. He developed a commanding understanding of courtroom procedure, a nuanced grasp of the rules of evidence, and the ability to prosecute or defend a wide range of actions. He is wholly comfortable litigating protection orders, emergency motions, and motions to restrict parenting time, and he has earned a reputation for stepping in quickly and effectively when urgent matters arise. Joe is articulate, strategic, and unflappable in high-pressure situations, capable of being forceful when necessary while recognizing when a more deliberate, measured approach will serve his clients best.

Joe takes a client-first approach. He prioritizes understanding the outcome his clients want and uses his trial experience, negotiation skills, and practical judgment to help them reach it. His work follows a simple philosophy. His cases are about the client’s goals, and every step should move them closer to achieving those goals.

This commitment led him to The Harris Law Firm, where his experience, courtroom presence, and dedication to supporting people through difficult moments align with the firm’s mission. He is well-liked and well-connected within the legal community, with a professional network built through years of collaboration, advocacy, and respected performance.

Outside the office, Joe enjoys creative pursuits, including role-playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons and practicing his improv comedy.

Hear From Happy Clients

    I would like to thank the team for your patience with us through what has been a very difficult process for us both.
    “We had a successful conclusion to all of our work this morning. The court commented on the fine work that had been done using a combination of the collaborative process and our independent efforts. I would like to thank the team for your patience with us through what has been a very difficult process for us both.”
    - Mark
    I AM THRILLED and relieved and so ready to move forward.
    “I AM THRILLED and relieved and so ready to move forward. Thank you, everyone, for your hard work on behalf of my sweet daughter. God bless you!!”
    - Jeni
    My family and I deeply appreciate it.
    “Thank you both for everything you have done to help me have my daughter in my life. My family and I deeply appreciate it.”
    - Paul
    I followed your instructions to a T and felt completely prepared to state my case.
    “Dear Angie and Janet, I want to thank you for your incredible help and advice last week as I prepared for my emergency restricted parenting case for protection of my two children.”
    - Marisa D.
    They helped make my divorce an easy and successful process
    “Attorney Jolyn Noel Belk and Paralegal Tara White, helped make my divorce an easy and successful process. Jolyn and Tara are companionate and understanding. Both stayed by my side from the beginning until the end.”
    - Jamie
    Jolyn Belk helped me every step of the way
    “Harris Family Law was a great referral. Divorce and family law issues are a living nightmare, and Jolyn Belk helped me every step of the way, to include a team of professionals who specialize in different areas of the family law experience (of which I had no idea I needed). While no one wants to find themselves in need of a family law attorney, I highly recommend reaching out to Harris Law and if you even think that custody/financial issues will come up, ask for Jolyn.”
    - Emily
    Nothing slipped through the cracks with her.
    “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.”
    - Astara
    Jolyn was amazing in her defense
    “As a man I was worried that the judicial system would lean heavily toward my wife on both child issues and financial issues, but Jolyn was amazing in her defense of me and my daughter. Highly recommend Jolyn.”
    - David
    I highly recommend Jolyn to anyone
    “I had the privilege of working with Jolyn Noel Belk from the Harris Law Firm in Boulder, Colorado, during my divorce. Jolyn was not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also incredibly compassionate throughout the entire process. She was a true advocate for me—attentive, thoughtful, and consistently professional. Her ability to navigate complex issues with clarity and care made a very difficult time much more manageable. I highly recommend Jolyn to anyone in need of a dedicated and empathetic family law attorney.”
    - H.C.D.
