Kaitlin Stranahan

Known for her warm, approachable personality and undoubtedly impressive abilities for organization and communication, Kaitlin Stranahan is a trusted paralegal of The Harris Law Firm in Colorado. Clients and attorneys alike rely on her throughout every stage of a case. With genuine compassion and an interest in helping people through tough situations, she has been a perfect fit for as long as she’s been with the law firm.

As a child, Kaitlin loved to watch Law & Order: SVU and JAG with her grandmother, which led her to an interest in true crime podcasts and documentaries as an adult. Traveling a bit, she earned her Criminal Justice degree from the University of Arizona. After she returned to Colorado, she finished her paralegal certificate during which time she was inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society for academic achievement. Her combined interests in law and organizational work ultimately led her to pursue a career in the legal field.

As a paralegal, Kaitlin has already had a remarkable career. During an internship with the U.S. House of Representatives in Washington, D.C., Kaitlin gained hands-on experience in scheduling, drafting memorandums, and constituent communications. She taught herself the process for obtaining Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) in State Court so that Immigration Court could process green card orders. The workflow and templates she created became the standard for her peers, demonstrating her initiative and expertise. In Colorado, she started looking for law firms that felt like the right fit. She is glad to have found her calling here at The Harris Law Firm.

When working on a case, Kaitlin always uses a compassionate and supportive approach. She knows that the firm’s family law and divorce clients are going through some of the most challenging times of their lives, so she focuses on listening to them first and making sure they feel understood. Minimizing the intimidating nature of the court system is an important part of her work. The attorneys of The Harris Law Firm also appreciate her knack for eliminating obstacles and reducing complications.

Throughout her life, Kaitlin has looked for ways to stay active with volunteer work and efforts that benefit the people in her communities. Kaitlin has volunteered with food banks and continues to seek new opportunities. Originally from St. Louis, Missouri, she often visits family, including nine nieces and nephews. In her free time, she enjoys hiking, baseball, snowboarding, and exploring new restaurants.

    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.”

    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.”
