Book a short consultation and tell Charles which order you want changed, enforced, or clarified — bring your case number and the basics. That’s enough to start.
Attorney-drafted — not a fill-in-the-blank form. The correct JDF, the right legal standard, the facts that support it, and the sworn affidavit or financial statement the court actually requires.
We e-file with the right district court through Colorado Courts E-Filing and handle service on the other party — docketed correctly the first time, on the deadline that matters.
Your motion, drafted in 24 hours — and filed for you.
A motion the court can act on isn’t a form you fill in — it’s the right JDF, the right legal standard, and the proof to back it, drafted by a Colorado attorney who has sat on both sides of the courtroom. We draft it, file it, and serve it, for a flat fee, quoted upfront — no retainer, no hourly meter.
Any Colorado motion — the right form, done right

How to file a motion in Colorado, step by step
You don’t need a lawyer to file a motion — the forms are built for self-represented parties. Here’s the whole path, plus the deadlines that decide who wins.
Questions people ask before they file
1How fast can you really turn it around?
For most motions, Charles drafts your document within 24 hours of your consultation and having what he needs. Court timelines are separate: once filed, the other side gets 21 days to respond and the judge rules or sets a hearing — but your paperwork is done, correct, and filed on day one.
2Which motions and forms can you file?
3What does it cost?
A flat fee, quoted upfront at your consultation — you approve the price before any work begins, with no retainer and no hourly billing. The court’s own filing fee (typically $105 to modify) is separate, and we tell you exactly what it is.
4Do you file it, or do I?
Your choice. We can e-file it with the court and serve the other party for you, or hand you a signature-ready motion with step-by-step filing instructions if you’d rather file it yourself.
5Can I just do it myself?
Absolutely — Colorado’s forms are built for self-represented parties, and our Pro Se Family Law hub walks you through it. But whether a motion is granted turns on strategy and proof, not paperwork. On high-stakes motions — restriction, relocation, decision-making, contempt — attorney drafting usually pays for itself.
6Will you review a motion I already drafted?
Yes. Bring what you have and Charles will pressure-test it — the standard you’re citing, the relief you’re asking for, and the proof behind it — before it goes in front of a judge.
Not sure which motion fits — or what to put in it? Twenty minutes with Charles turns ‘I think I need to file something’ into a signed, filed, correctly-drafted motion.
Your choice: no-charge 20-minute phone call OR in-depth hour ($300) — both directly with Charles.
A motion is only as strong as what’s in it.
Draft it yourself with our guides, or hand it to Charles — drafted in 24 hours, any Colorado JDF, filed and served for you.
