Multi-State & International Divorce Lawyers in Centennial
We Can Help Simplify This Complex Process
Divorced parents who reside in separate states or countries face challenges in their post-divorce lives. Regardless of the distance that separates a mother and father, they must still work together and focus on the best interests of the children. At the Law Office of Alexandra White, PC, we can help you understand your options.
Pre-decree jurisdictional matters involve choosing the jurisdiction that will preside over parenting and support issues. Post-decree matters involve primarily enforcement, modifications, parental relocation, and child abduction.
You don’t have to figure this out alone. Call our Centennial multi-state and international divorce attorneys today at (303) 647-4245. We also represent clients throughout Arapahoe County.
Representing Centennial Residents with Complex Post-Divorce Disputes
Family law attorney Alex White, the founder of our firm, takes on the complexities of multi-state and international jurisdictional issues that arise, both before and after the decree.
- Parental abduction — All states are supposed to abide by another state's orders uniformly. Tragically, this does not always happen. Some states have adopted the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act (PKPA) and related warrants while others have not. Other states mandate the opening of an interstate case in the area where the children are believed to reside. We explore all options to have children returned, facilitating AMBER Alerts and partnering with local law enforcement and passport agencies.
- Relocations — Out-of-state and international relocations are governed by the same rules involving travel distance and other circumstances. International moves often require destination countries to be signatories to the Hague Convention and willing to enforce Colorado state court decisions.
- Child abuse or neglect — If abuse or neglect of a child residing in another state is suspected, we move quickly to pursue an emergency allocation of parental responsibility when Colorado will assume jurisdiction (whether temporary or permanent). Upon approval, interim steps can be taken to protect the children.

"Kind and Compassionate"
I had the most difficult task of filing for divorce this year. To say that divorce is devastating is an understatement. Kevin was so kind, and really took the time to listen to me, my needs and my wants. The meetings were conveniently scheduled, and he kept them as short as possible.
Kevin was also very communicative regarding the process and what needed to be done. He would simply ask me for the information needed, and fill out all of the long and complicated paperwork for me. He also did an amazing job explaining the paperwork, what it meant and what my rights were.
On top of this, I also moved out of state. Even from 1500 miles away, the communication was amazing, and I never felt uninformed.
Thanks to Kevin, this experience was far from the nightmare I expected. Working with him was a pleasantry, even though the circumstances were less than ideal.- Katie -
"It was a weight lifted off my shoulders."After the passing of my mother I was more than lost as to how to close her bank accounts and settle her small estate. Krista Beauchamp was a joy to work with! She took her time to speak with me and tell me how best to proceed. It was a weight lifted off my shoulders. Thank you again Krista!- Charmaine B.

"Understanding and compassionate"This firm was absolutely wonderful start to finish.
Mike took my initial call, and without skipping a beat listened to every detail and provided excellent feedback/suggestions.
He recommended I retain Megan, which I did end up doing. I've never met someone more understanding and compassionate, and she was absolutely perfect for my divorce case.
Also, a HUGE shout out to Christian, her paralegal who was just as wonderful, and was so supportive throughout the daunting process.
Thank you everyone, I could not have done it without you all!!!- Anonymous -

Every call and email to Christian and Megan was always promptly addressed! Highly recommend!- Darin R.

"Absolutely wonderful"I sought legal counsel after needing to renegotiate custody and child support after 4 years of divorce. I was referred to this law firm by a friend and became partnered with Megan and her team. They were absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process providing timely communication and updates, reassurances as the process unfolded and sound legal counsel. I would highly recommend them! This was one of the best decisions I've ever made and feel blessed to have had them with me through this stressful time.- Maria S.
