TNS Associates Expands Family Law Services for Divorce and Custody Matters

DENVER, CO – February 21, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

Thomas N. Scheffel & Associates, P.C. has announced an expansion of family law services to meet increasing demand for divorce representation and child custody matters throughout Colorado. The law firm, which has served Colorado clients since 1983, has added dedicated resources to handle complex family law cases involving asset division, spousal maintenance, parenting time disputes, and related domestic relations matters.

The expanded family law practice provides legal representation for divorce proceedings, legal separation, child custody determinations, parenting time modifications, child support calculations, and spousal maintenance negotiations. The firm represents clients in both contested litigation and collaborative divorce processes, adapting strategies to match client objectives and case circumstances.

“Family law matters represent some of the most emotionally challenging legal situations individuals face,” said Alexander O. Rodriguez, family law attorney at TNS Associates. “Our expanded family law services reflect our commitment to providing compassionate, strategic legal representation during difficult transitions. We focus on protecting client interests while seeking resolutions that minimize conflict and preserve family relationships when possible.”

The expansion addresses growing complexity in Colorado family law cases as families navigate evolving legal standards for parental responsibilities, changing economic circumstances affecting support calculations, and disputes involving significant marital assets. Colorado courts emphasize the best interests of children when making custody determinations, requiring detailed evidence about parenting capabilities, living arrangements, and childcare plans.

TNS Associates represents clients through initial divorce filings, temporary orders hearings, mediation sessions, settlement negotiations, and trial proceedings when settlement proves unattainable. The firm prepares comprehensive financial disclosures, develops parenting plans that comply with Colorado requirements, and presents evidence supporting client positions on contested issues.

Family law attorneys at TNS Associates possess extensive experience with Colorado domestic relations statutes and court procedures throughout the state. This knowledge allows the firm to anticipate potential obstacles, develop realistic case strategies, and achieve favorable outcomes through negotiation or litigation as circumstances require.

The firm handles property division in divorce cases involving complex assets including business interests, retirement accounts, real estate holdings, and investment portfolios. Colorado follows equitable distribution principles, requiring courts to divide marital property fairly though not necessarily equally. Attorneys work with financial experts when necessary to value assets, trace separate property, and develop division proposals that protect client interests.

Child custody matters require careful attention to Colorado statutory factors that courts consider when determining parental responsibilities and parenting time schedules. These factors include historical caregiving patterns, the ability of each parent to encourage the child’s relationship with the other parent, proximity of residences, and any history of domestic violence or substance abuse. TNS Associates develops parenting plans that address decision-making authority, residential schedules, holiday rotations, and dispute resolution procedures.

The firm also handles modifications of existing custody orders when substantial changes in circumstances warrant adjustments to parenting arrangements. Modification cases commonly arise from parental relocations, changes in employment schedules, or developments affecting child welfare. These matters require demonstrating changed circumstances and establishing that modifications serve the best interests of affected children.

Spousal maintenance determinations depend on factors including marriage duration, income disparity between spouses, and each party’s ability to become self-supporting. Colorado law provides guideline maintenance amounts for certain marriage lengths, but courts retain discretion to deviate based on specific circumstances. TNS Associates develops maintenance positions supported by financial evidence and arguments addressing the applicable statutory factors.

TNS Associates also handles collaborative divorce processes for couples seeking to resolve matters outside traditional litigation. Collaborative divorce involves both spouses retaining trained attorneys and committing to settlement negotiations without court intervention. This process often incorporates neutral financial specialists and mental health professionals who help parties develop comprehensive settlement agreements addressing all divorce issues.

The firm’s broader legal capabilities support family law clients with related needs including estate planning for newly single parents and real estate matters tied to property transfers. This integrated approach allows clients to address multiple legal concerns through established relationships with attorneys who understand their full circumstances.

Thomas N. Scheffel & Associates schedules initial consultations where prospective clients can discuss their situations, understand available legal options, and review fee structures. The firm offers transparent fee arrangements and works with clients to develop payment plans that support access to quality legal representation.

TNS Associates maintains offices in Denver and serves clients throughout all Colorado counties. The firm’s attorneys travel to counties across the state to represent clients in family law proceedings. Individuals seeking family law representation can contact the firm through the company website to schedule a consultation.
