Family law is an evolving field, and the attorneys at McGuane and Hogan are on the forefront of

navigating emerging issues like same-sex marriages, children conceived through artificial reproduction, nontraditional family configurations, and the impact technology can have on the terms of divorce.

“A client is never going to hear from us, ‘That’s too unusual for us to handle,’” says Partner Kathy Hogan. “But at the same time, we’re realistic and candid with clients about what their options are.”

With five attorneys of vari-ous backgrounds and experience levels, the firm welcomes every-thing from everyday, average- income divorces to high net worth clients with untraditional assets, like yachts and airplane hangars. Hogan says the firm relishes the uniqueness of every case and helps clients understand that there is no one-size-fits-all solution.

“We make recommendations and explain the pros and cons of different options, but at the end of the day, the client has to understand and approve our course of action,” Hogan says. “It’s

not like having your appendix removed where I can knock you out and wake you

up when it’s over.”Having earned a

reputation for fierce l it igat ion, it’s not uncommon for other firms to refer their cli-ents to McGuane and Hogan when a case requires the court-room. “W hi le we enjoy the challenge of litigation, that does not mean we start World War III if no

one else wants to fight it,” Hogan says. “Being strong in litiga-tion is important even if you don’t end up going to court because it leads to a more effective settlement.”

author of “Colorado Family Law and Practice,” the go-to handbook for judges, lawyers, and other family law profession-als statewide.

In it s second ed it ion, the t wo- volume book, which Hogan updates annually with a new supplement, is a comprehensive compilation of case-law, statutes, and procedura l stan-dards for Colorado family law. The book is particularly valuable consid-ering Colorado’s approach to matters such as common law marriage and property division.

“A property division is not like a math problem where the numbers add up to one right answer. It’s more like a baseball game where there’s a whole range where a ball could be hit and be considered fair,” says Hogan.

“Whether it’s property, custody, or another complex issue, we’re commit-ted to staying current with the develop-ing trends in the field and helping clients achieve a thorough and realistic under-standing of the process.”
