Child Custody Lawyer in Colorado

Samer and his team go above and beyond for their clients. Exceptional client centered focused firm. We are delighted to work with Samer and his team. Keep up the great work!

I honestly don't even know where to start with how amazing Adele Rosenthal is. I hired her for my family law case involving my infant and she has been incredible every step of the way. She came in so prepared and so ready to fight for my baby and it showed in every single way! Because of how prepared and strategic she was we reached an agreement before we even got in front of the judge. I have never met an attorney so genuinely passionate about this work, you can tell she is in this field because she truly cares about the kids, not just the cases. Beyond that, she just gets it on a human level. From day one I felt understood, supported, cared for and like I was truly in the right hands. Adele is tough, she is sharp and she fights for what is best for your child with everything she has. And it is not just Adele, from my very first call with Samer, doing my initial intake, to every single person I have spoken to at Best Interest Family Law, everyone has been so kind, so caring, so helpful, so supportive and so genuine. You can tell that this firm was built with the right intentions from the top down. I still have a road ahead of me and I could not feel more confident knowing Adele is in my corner every step of the way. If you are a mom going through something like this, please hire her!!

I am truly grateful to Adele for everything she did for me during one of the most difficult times in my life. Going through a very challenging family situation, including the effects of physical and emotional domestic violence, was incredibly overwhelming. From the beginning, Adele made me feel heard, understood, and supported.

What I appreciated most about Adele was her calm and caring approach. She was always professional, patient, friendly, and compassionate. She took the time to listen to me, explain things clearly, and help me feel prepared and confident throughout the process. Even during the most stressful moments, her calm presence made me feel that I had someone strong standing beside me.

Today, I received a successful outcome in my case, and I am incredibly thankful. Adele advocated for me with professionalism and strength while also treating me with genuine kindness and respect.

For any woman who has experienced domestic violence—whether physical or emotional—and feels afraid or overwhelmed by the legal process, having an attorney who listens, understands, and takes your concerns seriously can mean so much. That is what Adele was for me.

Adele, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support, dedication, and compassion. You made a very difficult chapter of my life easier to face, and I will always be grateful for the difference you made. I highly recommend her. ❤️

Thanks Adele

As an attorney myself, I cannot recommend Best Interest highly enough. They came through in all ways for me— quick work (including taking calls on weekends) and thorough and clear guidance. I found it important to work with a firm that specializes exclusively in family law, and I benefitted from their deep expertise on this area of law. True trusted advocates for you.

Samer and Jessica were super to work with during a very difficult time. They are very supportive. Their fees are fair and clear. I highly recommend this firm.

Adele helped out with my case and she was such a great person to work with. Very professional but also very personable who truly cares about her clients well-being and mental health. You don’t get that very often when it comes to lawyers but it makes the process so much easier and less stressful. Also very knowledgeable and helpful. Will definitely come back in the future if I ever have to and recommend this law firm to others.

Samer & his team were compassionate, communicative, & understanding throughout my highly contested divorce. They worked hard to keep costs down & move the process as quickly as possible. In addition, they fought for me tooth & nail in court when the time came. I would recommend them to anyone needing assistance with family law. Thank you, Samer & crew!

Samer and his team at Best Interest Family Law were absolutely incredible to work with!

I knew we had an uphill climb concerning our case as grandparents wanting concrete visitation with our grandson. However, Samer took the case head on! His knowledge of family law, professionalism, concerns an truly caring for his clients took us over the finish line with the most outstanding outcome!

Samer being so down to earth and personable helped us understand and communicate with ease through out our case.

Samer is very prompt with all calls whether the calls were scheduled or not. I could always count on clear email replies within a timely manner.

When Samer prepared us for our court hearing the meeting was very informative and professional which helped ease our doubts heading to trial.

The day of the court hearing Samer successfully worked with the opposing counsel giving us a win win prior to going before the judge.

We can't say enough great comments concerning Samer and his law firm! Samer beat the odds for getting us grandparent visitation and for this we will be forever grateful as we continue to bond with our grandson!!

Thank you

I cannot give Best Interest Family Law a higher review. Specifically, Samer and Jessica. Jessica went above and beyond. She was very meticulous with everything that needed to be sorted through and organized with a very large amount of information. The efficient way she was able to organize and label things translated into less stress and costs for me. This also led to a much easier presentation in Court.

Samer is extremely compassionate and understanding. He took all of the information I provided to him and Jessica and he was able to present this information to the Court so it was easy to read and understood. The whole process is very taxing, emotionally and financially, but Samer was able to make it as easy and smooth as possible.

Samer clearly has great knowledge of Colorado family laws and case law that he was able to cite and speak on without fumbling through notes or books. I have seen my share of attorneys representing other people in the past that show up to court unprepared and didn’t even know their own client. When Samer showed up to court, he was well dressed, friendly and supportive.

Throughout the process, he got to know me and my specific situation. He did all of this while also maintaining a professional demeanor and made me feel very comfortable to have me as a client.

One of the biggest compliments I think I can give them is the billing. They are up front about costs and what my reasonable expectations should be. Samer is extremely ethical in his billing and itemizes everything that is done on the invoices so there is no guessing on what he is doing with your money. It’s comforting to see someone that is aware of my financial situation and care about it enough to not just send invoices with miscellaneous fees. Every single minute of his time is documented with what either him or Jessica are doing.

Again, I could not recommend Best Interest Family Law and specifically, Samer and Jessica highly enough. They made a hard situation as easy as they possibly could.

I cannot recommend Mr. Bandek enough. He helped me with my post-divorce, relocation case. Before I hired him I was pro-se (representing myself) and my ex and I had hired a child family investigator (CFI), who turned out to be terrible. My ex lied (a lot) to the CFI and provided no best interest factor evidence. The CFI ate it up and ignored all of my best interest evidence that I had submitted to her. Her report provided no analysis and concluded that my daughter should stay in Colorado with my ex, with very little parenting time with me. I hired Samer Bandek right away, we got an excellent new CFI to do a work product review, interrogatories and more and went to court. The judge granted my motion to relocate and awarded be 80% parenting time. Mr. Bandek also allowed me to do some of the work on my own (i wanted this in order to lower costs, etc.) I can’t recommend him enough!

Both Adele Rosenthal and Samer were the best lawyers I could have asked for. Adele (and Samer) put up with my now and again "freak outs" with a kindness and grace that I have never experienced in any attorney. Adele was so knowledgeable about me and my case that I did not have to, or feel the need to, say anything in court. She was elegant and articulate. She was a fierce attorney and a tender listener when I was just needing to vent. I highly recommend her!

Samer was great to work with. He's very knowledgeable about family law, listens attentively and is responsive (he answered probably a dozen late night emails). I really appreciated his level-headed guidance. Highly recommended.

Adele has a great personality and is extremely professional and is helping me do whats best for me and my babies! I strongly recommend best interest family law firm and can assure you that if you work with Adele that you will be in caring hands!

I had the chance to work with Best Interest Family Law Firm and specifically Samer, and honestly, he stands out.

Before him, I spoke with several attorneys and even large firms, and most of them felt transactional. Samer was the only one who actually took the time to listen, understand my situation, and explain what was realistically possible. Not only that, he showed me I could achieve a better outcome than I originally expected.

As someone not originally from the U.S. and unfamiliar with divorce laws, that level of clarity mattered a lot. He was patient, responsive, and never made me feel rushed or confused. Him and his team were consistently supportive and professional throughout the entire process.

What I respected most: he wasn’t trying to drag things out for more money. He focused on the best solution, not billing hours. We worked together as a team, and he made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable.

If you’re looking for a family lawyer you can actually trust, someone who listens, guides, and fights for the best outcome, Samer is the one.

I’m genuinely grateful I found him and his team.

Outstanding lawyer, to say the least. Extremely professional and reliable. In stressful moments, having Samer as our lawyer gave us ease and hope. He is someone you definitely want in your corner and on your side. He is a fierce advocate for his clients and actually cares. Choosing Samer to represent us was the best decision I could have made for our family.

I can't say enough about Samer and his staff. He was always available and VERY helpful. I don't know if I would have gotten through my divorce without his patience and understanding.

Samer fiercely represented me throughout an extremely contentious divorce and I could not recommend him highly enough! Throughout the entire process, his attention to detail and commitment to my case were apparent. He thoroughly reviewed relevant law with me, honestly grounded my expectations for potential outcomes, and devoted time to ensure I was prepared for trial. I hired Samer after firing my previous attorney midway through my case and could not be more satisfied. I switched having reviewed prior clients’ experience raving about his services. Samer is a dedicated professional, exceptional attorney, and you will be grateful to have him representing you.

I cannot say enough good things about Best Interest Family Law Firm. I especially want to thank Samer and Adelle for everything they did for me throughout my divorce and custody case.

From the very beginning, they consistently kept me informed and always took the time to respond to my questions. I never once felt ignored or like my situation didn’t matter. They truly cared, and that made such a difference during a very stressful time in my life.

I went into this process thinking my divorce was going to be extremely nasty. However, because of their professionalism and steady approach, they played a huge role in keeping things respectful and productive — even with the opposing party. The other side clearly respected them, which helped tremendously.

They helped us create a strong parenting and financial plan, and most importantly, we avoided unnecessary court appearances. Unlike so many horror stories you hear, the majority of everything was resolved outside of court.

Thank you to this entire team for genuinely caring and not just treating me like another case or paycheck. I’m incredibly grateful for your guidance and support.

I cannot recommend Adele highly enough. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thorough, responsive, and genuinely committed to advocating for my best interests. She took the time to explain every step of the process clearly, making sure I always felt informed and confident in how my case was being handled.

What truly stood out was her dedication and attention to detail—nothing was overlooked. She was always quick to respond to my questions and provided thoughtful, strategic guidance throughout. Thanks to her expertise and persistence, I was able to reach a settlement that exceeded my expectations and truly felt like the best possible outcome.

If you’re looking for an attorney who is not only highly skilled but also deeply invested in her clients, Adele is the one you want on your side.

I wish I found Samer sooner. I’ve worked with two other attorneys before for other matters, and he absolutely stands out from the crowd. And, while it may sound silly to others, the way he explained things, kept me in the loop and updated me, he really minimized anxiety in a otherwise awful situation.

Thank you so much!! Samer your law firm has been such a blessing for me and my family you were reliable friendly an listened to all my concerns and talked me through what i would say one of the hardest parts in someone's life you talked to me through pros and cons in many questions that I had and I will definitely recommend you to anyone who may need assistance.

I cannot speak highly enough of Samer and team! I was faced with an incredibly stressful, traumatic, and nuanced domestic situation and navigating legal options for the first time was daunting. I had a few consultations with other lawyers, most of which felt like car salesmen trying to push me into incredibly expensive packaged services, and one of whom actually said, "I guess I could take your case if you really think it's worth it." I'm so glad I came across Best Interest Family Law Firm. Samer treated me with dignity and respect from the outset, explaining legalese in terms a novice could easily understand, answering every question without judgment. He and his paralegal kept up on every element and deadline for the 6 months my situation was active. His charging practices are transparent, fair, and completely reasonable, especially considering the depth and breadth of his knowledge of law. I will absolutely utilize his expertise should I need it in the future.

As an educational behavior intervention specialist, I greatly respect Adele’s child-centered, ethical approach to family law. She is thoughtful, balanced, and intentional in considering all angles of an issue before moving forward.

While we have not yet collaborated professionally, I value her commitment to children’s best interests and hope to work together in the future to support families through coordinated legal and educational-behavioral advocacy that recognizes how family legal matters may impact children in school.

Adele Rosenthal was appointed to my case through best family interest lawfirm Miss Rosenthal has been a solid ally throughout a very emotional process, Miss Rosenthal was also quick to reach out to me whenever I had signs of stress or stong concerns about my case overall I am very pleased to have such a caring and wonderful individual in my corner

As a fellow attorney, I can confidently say I trust Adele completely and send all of my clients with family law related matters directly to her. Highly recommend.

It's taken me a long time to write this as the 'divorce' experience I went through was nothing short of traumatic. To keep it brief, possibly one of the top 5 best decisions I've ever made (filing for divorce aside), was the morning I called Samer Bandak. Life is precious. When you remember that, you'll do anything to retain its integrity. Samer knows this, and his approach isn't just strategic (he's astonishingly bright, quick-witted, and fearless), but he's also deeply committed to you as a person and your undeniable right to live a happy life. If you need or just want the best attorney in the state, certainly in the building, stop looking now and hire Samer.

I had an excellent experience working with Samer at Best Interest Family Law Firm. My custody case was heavily stacked against me, yet Samer’s strong advocacy and strategic approach helped secure a 50/50 custody outcome. He also identified critical legal errors made by opposing counsel, which led to a key issue being dismissed. Throughout the process, Samer was prompt, responsive, efficient with his time, and incredibly supportive. I’m truly grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him to anyone facing a challenging family law matter.

I worked with Samer before he came to Best Interest and ultimately decided it was in my best interest to continue working with him because of how much he cared and how hard he was willing to fight with my case. Enjoyed my time with Samer and although it is one of those “hope to never see you again situations”, if I need another lawyer he will be my first call as he has been many times. Thanks for everything Samer

I appreciate the kindness and help through this difficult time.

This guys amazing, he puts most attorneys to shame. HE ACTUALLY cares. My highest regards!!!!!!
