Collbran, CO Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

The courts expect you to make a good faith effort to located the spouse and serve them (I hire a private investigator to do a search, which is not expensive) and if you still cannot find them, you then file a motion to be allowed to serve the party by publication. I often take cases like this on a flat rate basis. I also offer a free initial consultation if you would like to discuss this further. Hope this helps.    You can reach Dave Rich at (303) 886-2516 or dave@flatironlegal.com. Dave Rich is an attorney licensed in Colorado. Answering your questions does not create an attorney-client relationship between us. You should speak with an attorney to whom you have provided all the facts in your case, before you take steps that may impact your legal rights. I am not obligated to answer subsequent emails or phone calls unless you have hired me. I wish you the best of luck with your situation.

This is not a question that most lawyers would choose to answer. You need to be patient with your own attorney. We are lucky to get contested cases completed in less than a year.
