Licensed Legal Paraprofessional
Family law has always been Catherine’s calling—the area where she can make the greatest positive impact on families facing some of life’s most difficult challenges. Her professional journey has provided her with a versatile skill set and multifaceted perspective, allowing her to approach cases with insight, empathy, and strategic focus.
Catherine began her legal career in 2009 with the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Principal Legal Advisor as a legal assistant, later serving as an Immigration Officer with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. She sat on the bench with a Denver District Court Judge as a Judicial Assistant, working on high-volume dependency and neglect and juvenile delinquency dockets. During this time, her passion for protecting children’s best interests grew exponentially.
Transitioning to the private sector in family law, Catherine has gained over six years of extensive experience as a family law paralegal. Her expertise spans a wide range of matters, including protection orders, legal separations, dissolutions of marriage with or without children, declaration of invalidity of marriage, allocation of parental responsibilities, emergency parenting time restrictions, motions for remedial contempt, and post-decree modifications.
Passing the LLP exam and being sworn in by the Colorado Supreme Court to practice family law under Rule 207 is a milestone Catherine is particularly proud of. She is honored to pioneer this pathway, offering cost-effective, high-quality legal services.
As a Licensed Legal Paraprofessional (LLP), Catherine brings diligent planning and strong advocacy to every case. Whether negotiating with opposing parties or navigating complex legal issues, she is committed to transparency, empowering clients by ensuring their understanding of the legal process and providing unwavering support during these life transitions.
