Providing Support in Domestic Violence & Family Law Matters
Studies have shown that substance abuse and mental health disorders are often factors in domestic violence situations in households. Both perpetrators and victims of domestic violence are much more likely to suffer from substance abuse and mental health problems. Because of this, protective orders and other court-ordered programs are often needed to protect victims and their children. Court-ordered programs, such as anger management and substance abuse programs, may also be needed for perpetrators.

Substance Abuse, Mental Health Problems & Domestic Violence
Substance abusers are more likely to have mental health issues and become victims of domestic violence due to their vulnerability in the face of manipulation and excessive emotional, financial, and physical control. On the other hand, otherwise healthy individuals who become victimized by domestic violence may resort to substance abuse and/or intoxication and become reluctant to report any domestic violence attack.
It is also well-known that those with substance abuse problems, such as alcoholism or drug use, often engage in violent or criminal behavior, including domestic violence. Substance abuse and addiction impairs judgment, gives rise to uncontrollable emotions and impulses, and provokes irrational behavior. In these situations, the family unit is threatened, children suffer, and domestic partners or spouses face intimidation and fear for the safety of themselves and their children.
Our firm is here to provide all of the legal approaches and support needed in the face of these situations. Let us use our experience and commitment to your welfare and that of your family to ensure that your rights are protected through appropriate legal action. Whether you are a victim of violence or have been unfairly accused of violence, we can help.
Call (303) 647-4245 for capable and compassionate legal help today.

"Mr.murphy is truly a subject matter expert."
Kevin D Murphy was my lawyer for my divorce which was very very complicated and multifaceted more so than your average divorce. He is very professional and is able to break down complicated legal jargon into a single comprehensible format. Mr. Murphy always showed up on time and professionally dressed. He always kept me updated me as soon as he got new information in the divorce. A divorce is a very long and stressful ordeal. Mr. Murphy took the stress out of the entire situation and had my back at every point in the divorce. I was able to call and or email him 24-7 365 with any questions comments or concerns always promptly replied to the phone call or email with all the information I needed and then some. Mr. Murphy was an advocate for me and my children and facilitated the best possible outcome of the divorce. Mr. Murphy sent me a well documented monthly invoice with all of the fees associated which always checked out. He was worth every penny, and also is a pleasure to be around he's very charismatic and very experienced. To list a few of the items that Mr Murphy did are as follows.
1. He sat down with me and took the time to establish my sworn financial statement that a corporate accountant could go through with a fine-tooth comb.
2. He set up a private investigator.
3. He helped triangulate between child support payments and the payment registry as well as triangulate with the child support enforcement office technician.
4. He recommended and gave excellent tax advice for the fiscal year of which we got divorced which was very complicated.
5. He triangulated with CPS caseworker and local sheriff's involved.
6. Here ran background checks on Associated individuals involved.
7. He was able to pull from all of the information I had given him and extract what he needed to write very professional legal documents.
These are just some of the skills that mr. Murph has. His attention to detail is amazing he caught things that I totally missed. If you are going through a divorce I would personally and only recommend Kevin D Murphy he is a multi-tasker extraordinaire and truly a subject matter expert at what he does. He has improved me and my children's quality of life significantly and alleviated the stress out of the whole entire situation.- Anonymous -

"They help you stay calm and in control so you can make the right decisions."I worked with Megan Fiesinger and Christian Cunningham extensively over the course of almost a year in order to resolve issues that arose during my separation and divorce. I couldn’t imagine a more competent, diligent, and supportive team than the two of them, and at the end of the whole process, I found that everything they said and did was for the best. In the end, divorce is never positive, but Megan and Christian helped me secure THE most favorable outcome that was even possible.
Beyond that, they understand how emotional and chaotic the whole process can be, which is why they provide more than just legal support - they help you stay calm and in control so you can make the right decisions.
Additionally, they were supremely thorough in explaining my options and tradeoffs. That meant I spent way less on legal fees than I expected because they were perfectly willing to advise me NOT to give them money that wouldn’t ultimately contribute to a better outcome for myself. Their advice was always solely for my benefit.
I couldn’t recommend a better team than the folks at Alex White’s firm, and specifically Megan and Christian.- Andrew R. -
"Exactly what I am looking for"They were very professional and more than willing to listen to exactly what I am looking for and were very clear about the steps I needed to take!- Maggie D.
