FAQs

What are the residency requirements for divorce in Colorado?

After you or your spouse has lived in Colorado for at least 90 days, either of you can file for divorce or separation. After you submit a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage or Legal Separation, there is a 91-day waiting period before the divorce or separation decree can be officially entered. As long as the residency requirement was met when the action was started, you do not have to remain in Colorado until it is occluded.

What is a common-law marriage in Colorado?

In Colorado, there are two ways a person can marry. The first is to obtain a marriage license and have the marriage solemnized by an appropriate official. The other, common-law marriage, is established by the mutual consent of the parties to be husband and wife, followed by their mutual and open assumption of a marital relationship. Despite common beliefs, cohabitation for a certain period of time does not, in and of itself, create a common-law marriage.

If I have a common-law marriage, do I need a formal divorce in Colorado?

Yes. There is no such thing as a common-law divorce. If a common-law marriage has, in fact, been created, a formal divorce is necessary to terminate it. Even if there is no common-law marriage, court action may be necessary to divide jointly owned property or to determine issues relating to your children like custody or child support.

What is collaborative family law in Colorado?

In a collaborative case, the spouses, specially trained lawyers and neutral experts work together exclusively toward settlement. The participants all agree at the outset that they will not pursue litigation. If the participants are unable to resolve all the issues and it becomes necessary to go to court, parties sometimes agree that the original lawyers and experts will be disqualified from the case. Some of the lawyers of Hogan Omidi, PC, are specially trained in collaborative family law.

How is custody of the children determined in Colorado?

Colorado uses the term parental responsibilities instead of custody. There are two separate components encompassed in what previously was referred to as custody. The first is decision-making responsibility, which may be awarded to both parents jointly or solely to one of the parents. If the parents are unable to agree on who will have decision-making authority for the children, the court will decide based upon the best interests of the children.
