Understanding Denver, Colorado Probate Law

Probate in Colorado is the legal process for settling a deceased person’s estate. This includes validating the will, identifying and valuing assets, paying debts and taxes, and distributing what remains to beneficiaries. Colorado offers both formal and informal probate, depending on the estate's size, complexity, and whether there are disputes among interested parties. Our attorneys can help determine which process applies and ensure you meet the state’s legal requirements. We handle everything from small estate procedures to contested probate cases and estate litigation.

Kate Knowles

Senior AssociateFamily Law

May 11, 2026When our family found ourselves in the middle of a complex custody situation that required immediate action, we didn't know where to turn. Kate Knowles at Robinson and Henry stepped in and made an overwhelming situation feel manageable. What stood out most was Kate's ability to quickly understand the full picture, the legal issues, the emotional weight, and what actually mattered most for our child. She communicated clearly, never made us feel like we were just another case. The situation involved an emergency custody change across state lines, and navigating that kind of complexity requires someone who is both strategically sharp and genuinely invested in the outcome. Kate was both. If you are facing a family law matter that feels too big or too complicated to handle, especially one involving custody, child support, or interstate issues, I would not hesitate to recommend Kate Knowles and the team at Robinson and Henry. They brought both the legal skill and the human understanding that our family needed at one of the hardest times we've faced. We are deeply grateful."
