Resolving Family Disputes Through Mediation & Alternative Solutions
Many families want to avoid long or contentious court hearings by resolving issues through mediation or collaborative methods. We assist clients in El Paso County who want to use mediation to find solutions on issues such as custody, property division, and parenting plans. This process can save time and reduce stress for everyone involved. Colorado law encourages families to resolve disputes outside of court whenever possible, and local courts may require mediation before a trial. Our team helps you understand what to expect during mediation, prepares you for each session, and makes sure your key concerns stay at the center of the discussion. Mediation offers flexibility that often benefits military families and those with complex schedules. We work with you to build sound agreements while focusing on your family’s well-being.
Your Guide to Grandparents' Rights & Third-Party Involvement
Colorado recognizes rights for grandparents and third parties who have strong relationships with children. El Paso County courts review petitions from grandparents seeking visitation rights or those helping care for a child if a parent cannot, especially during major life changes like divorce or loss of parental rights. In these cases, we explain the specific legal standards and how courts assess petitions in local courtrooms. We discuss the factors judges examine, such as the child’s emotional bonds and caregiving arrangements, to help you know what to expect before you file. We also guide all parties through their options for protecting family relationships and maintaining the child’s best interests. Whether you are a grandparent or a family friend, we offer support grounded in local experience and Colorado law.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do most family law matters take in Colorado Springs?
Timing depends on the complexity of your case, whether children or property are involved, and how quickly both parties provide requested documents. Resolution often takes a few months to a year or more, especially if your case requires multiple hearings in El Paso County courts.
Do Colorado Springs courts require mediation in family cases?
Local courts often require parties to attempt mediation, especially in child custody and divorce matters, before setting a trial. Mediation gives both sides a chance to reach agreements and helps reduce court time.
Can out-of-state or military parents participate in court proceedings?
Yes, El Paso County courts commonly use phone or video conferencing for military or out-of-area parents who cannot attend hearings in person. This approach allows parents to meet court obligations without excessive travel or major schedule disruptions.

"I highly recommend that you not waste your time hiring other attorneys and hire the Gasper Law Group."After an absolutely crazy incident that could not have been seen almost anywhere besides a movie. I received some serious charges and was in search of an attorney. They would not only represent me but need to do the right thing because it's the right thing to do. Not because of a paycheck. I met Caryn Adams after meeting with several other top attorneys in the Colorado Springs area. I was very impressed with her genuine care about my situation and her want to help me. Not only did I want great representation, but I needed someone that I could reasonably afford given all the other expenses I was incurring. Caryn checked every box I needed. She was the only attorney who took extra care when I initially met with her to do everything she could do to protect me even before I hired her. I highly recommend that you not waste your time hiring other attorneys and hire the Gasper Law Group. They will protect you.- Lance F.

"The professionalism, guidance, and candor I’ve received from each person in this law firm has been beyond reproach."
I’m not one to have an extensive experience with law firms or lawyers and court in general. However, the professionalism, guidance, and candor I’ve received from each person in this law firm have been beyond reproach. Anytime, I mean, anytime, I’ve had a question about my case and the way forward, I was met with a friendly and constructive conversation about my case. There was never a doubt in my mind, that I made the right choice when I selected this law firm to represent me. Caryn and Stacie have been a wonderful blessing to my life and my legal proceedings. If you are looking for a no-BS law firm that has a significant reputation in the Springs area, I absolutely recommend this one. Even though I hope to not have to deal with this again, fingers crossed and every lucky charm, I’d trust this law firm with my representation to handle the hard stuff and give me ease with court proceedings. Thank you all for what you do and have done for me, my family, and my career. Bless you all.
