Mechelle Faulk and her team were great during a difficult divorce and provided me excellent representation. She avoided getting into unproductive "mud" slinging and isolated the children as much as possible. I should've headed her advice more than I did, she provided excellent advise with a moral a nd ethical focus, something that is lost many times in todays world.

Mechelle represented me in a very complicated divorce and child custody case, in which my children were at risk of being moved out of state. If you aren't familiar with family law and child custody as it pertains to the state of Colorado, we had an uphill battle. But as a result of Mechelle's outst anding work, perseverance and tenacity, the court ruled in our favor and in the best interest of the children, allowing them to stay in Colorado, and granting joint custody. It was a very difficult and trying case, but Mechelle always maintained a 'can win' attitude and was very supportive, because she absolutely believed it was the right thing to do for the children. Mechelle was very thorough, always well-prepared and steadfast in working through my situation. Her team was also outstanding, very efficient and extremely professional. I would highly (and only) recommend Mechelle Faulk to fight for your family.

Having been referred to Ms. Faulk by a friend who also retained her as an attorney, I was impressed with her professionalism upon our initial consultation. She listened carefully to me and explained the process of divorce thoroughly. I was pleased with her very clearly defined recommended course of a ction and retained her. She brought diplomacy to my nasty divorce and kept me calm during the process. She facilitated our Parenting Plan, Child Support, Separation Agreement and later walked me through the Protection Order that became necessary. After settling the intitial divorce matters, she also came back on board to help settle a custody dispute several years later. Without her guidance, I might have naively settled outside of court. Ms. Faulk kept me informed each step of the way and never made any promises about what would or would not happen. However, she was dead on when she said how the court would 'likely' rule. Her experience within the court system brought me great confidence and her knowledge of law put to rest the weak legal threats I was receiving from the defendant. I would hire Ms. Faulk again if necessary.

Mechelle Faulk has been my attorney since 2012. Through a contentious divorce, and still ongoing battle to keep my children safe, Mechelle has worked tirelessly on behalf of my family! Mechelle is intelligent beyond belief, kind, caring, and real. My family would not be where we are today without her dedication to the best interest of my children! Mechelle has been a Godsend to my family, and I cannot even use words to accurately describe how invaluable she has been... All I can say is that, to me, Mechelle is a gift from God. I trust her with mine, and my children's lives. Best lawyer in Colorado, hands down!!!!

Elizabeth, thankfully, brought a very positive conclusion to a difficult divorce that my daughter was going through. The Judge even commented that in his 16 years it was probably the most difficult divorce case he had handled. Elizabeth had every detail covered. Had answers to every question. Had ex cellent ideas and listened to our ideas. I recommend Elizabeth to all who are going through a divorce.

Hiring Elizabeth was one of the best decisions I have ever made! My experience in working with her and her team far exceeded my expectations as a client. I performed extensive research in selecting an attorney to assist me with a custody dispute. After discussing my situation with several attorneys, I chose her based on her experience, credentials, client focus, and empathy. My situation was abrupt and one of the most challenging I have been thru in my life. Elizebeth worked quickly to listen, understand my needs and wants, mobilize, and collaborate with me on potential strategies and solutions. She employs an objective, rigorous approach and effectively helped me navigate the waters. Her work ethic and follow-thru is commendable and she has an innate passion to help others. Her availability has also been impressive knowing how busy she must be as a family attorney. Her passion for clients is supported by a relentless desire to produce positive results for them. Sharp, professional, strong negotiator, accountable, and of the highest integrity. My situation is in a much better place and I have her to thank. I would hire her again! Best attorney ever!

Elizabeth and her team gave me everything I asked for. During such a difficult and emotionally charged situation more than anything I wanted to look back afterward and know that my attorneys and I had conducted ourselves in a way that was ethically beyond reproach, regardless of how others might be e ngaging in the situation. Elizabeth and her team not only exceeded my expectations in this area, but they offered compassion while helping me maintain an even and realistic perspective on approaches and outcomes. I can’t say enough about her both personally and professionally, and am truly grateful for her counsel and support during this long and challenging situation. If you’re looking for an attorney to represent you with tremendous experience, knowledge, ethics, and commitment I would highly recommend Elizabeth Bonanno.

I won’t trust anyone other than Elizebeth. My divorce was lengthy with custody battles and CFI investigations; it took 17 month to get the final decree and she fought for the best interest of my kids. I have full custody still today (9 years later). Elizebeth has represented me along the way over the years with visitation issues and collecting child support; her focus has always been what is most important to me… my kids. I have watched Elizebeth grow as an attorney and she continues to hit the bar of excellence. My children are safe and happy and I owe a lot of that to Elizebeth’s hard work and dedication to my case over the years, my most grateful and heartfelt gratitude goes out to you, Thank you Elizabeth!

Divorce is so hard. Riddled with mental health, substance abuse, child custody, child abuse, contempt, and criminal issues, my case is much harder than most. I have been with Elizabeth for 2 years and I would not want anyone else in my corner! She came highly recommended by a private investigator her e in Denver and hiring her was one of the best decisions of my life. I am so grateful for her ability to turn an incredibly tough situation into something that could be successfully navigated with careful thought, reliable communication, and a genuine concern for myself and my children. One of the many things I love about Elizabeth is her strong desire for the best outcome of her client and her realistic advice. Very similar to a coach or mentor, she has always advised me of what was good and what she knew we could achieve. When she knew it was necessary she recommended many experts (counselors, evaluators, and investigators) which also played an imperative role in our success. My only regret is not finding Elizabeth sooner. Having been through other attorneys, Elizabeth has been the only one to make great progress in protecting myself and my children for, literally, a lifetime. For this alone, no money that I spent for her services went in vain. Hire her. You will not be disappointed.
