Real Clients. Real Results.
Most importantly, I truly felt they prioritized my best interests. A special thank you to Sophia, Sri, and Kathrine for making a stressful process so seamless. An amazing experience from start to finish.
In the courtroom, Jennifer was poised, knowledgeable, and confident. Her technical understanding, attention to detail, and ability to respond quickly and effectively to opposing counsel made a tremendous difference. Her leadership directly led to a highly successful outcome.
I wish more attorneys practiced with her level of integrity, expertise, and commitment. I would recommend Jennifer Schwab without hesitation for any probate matter.
I really appreciate their patience and clear guidance❤️
Highly recommend!
Guardianship is one of the most significant legal responsibilities a person can take on and one of the most important decisions a Colorado family will ever make.

Colorado Guardianship Law, What Families in Colorado Need to Know.
Guardianship in Colorado is governed by specific "Protective Proceeding" statutes. The courts prioritize the least restrictive alternative, meaning your petition must clearly demonstrate why guardianship is the only viable path to protecting the ward. Our Colorado attorneys are intimately familiar with the local procedures in Denver, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, and throughout the state. We ensure that every petition is comprehensive, medically supported, and aligned with the court's strict evidentiary standards. We understand that these matters often involve sensitive family dynamics. Whether you are dealing with a parent suffering from dementia, a child with special needs reaching adulthood, or a contested family dispute over who should serve as guardian, Baker Law Group provides the fierce advocacy and compassionate guidance required to achieve a favorable outcome in Colorado courts.
