In Colorado, what is commonly referred to as visitation is called parenting time. Every responsible parent wants to spend quality and quantity time with their child. When a divorce or separation occurs or when a child's parents are never married, parenting time is a tremendously important issue.
If you are a custodial or noncustodial parent or you are unsure about what your custody arrangements will be before or during a divorce, make sure you have a lawyer to help you protect your time with your children. At the Law Office of Alexandra White, PC, our Centennial visitation attorneys can assist you.

Common Visitation Problems
Some of the most common visitation issues include:
- Interference with visitation: One parent may withhold visitation or prevent the other from seeing the child, which can lead to serious legal consequences.
- Non-compliance with the court order: When one parent consistently fails to follow the court-approved visitation schedule, it can disrupt the child's routine and create tension.
- Denial of visitation due to unpaid child support: Even if a parent falls behind on child support payments, visitation cannot legally be denied.
- Relocation disputes: If one parent moves to another city or state, it may affect visitation agreements and require modifications to the existing schedule.
- Supervised visitation conflicts: Sometimes, a court orders supervised visitation due to safety concerns, which can lead to disputes over the specifics of these visits.
- Last-minute schedule changes: Frequent cancellations or rescheduling by one parent can strain the relationship and create uncertainty for the child.
- Parental alienation: In some cases, one parent may attempt to alienate the child from the other parent, leading to breakdowns in the visitation schedule.
- Modifying visitation schedules: As children grow older or family circumstances change, visitation agreements may need to be modified. One parent may resist changes, causing disputes.

Michael Cheroutes, Jr. negotiated a “Miracle ” settlement for me with exceptional skill and instinct. I am beyond thrilled with the outcome of my divorce and I highly recommend Michael to negotiate your divorce.
Michael was willing to really listen to me:
I had spoken to dozens of attorneys and had even hired a divorce firm, before I was referred to Michael, but they all failed to put in the initial time and energy into fully understanding and comprehending what I was saying about my case. Great lawyers know the value of listening and Michael put in the energy and passion up front, at our initial consultation, that allowed him to extract and analyze the relevant facts he needed to recommend a plan.
Michael knows the Law and is a stellar communicator:
Great lawyers don’t allow their clients to go down expensive rabbit holes. Michael explained clearly what will work and what I needed to focus on. His guidance allowed me to identify what documents and evidence I needed to collect to assist him with my case while saving me money. Michael’s communication with the opposing counsel was genius; he ignored the counsel’s reputation and my dire warnings about him and developed his own professional, strategic and healthy skeptical relationship with him that paid off handsomely for me in the end.
Michael is smart and creative:
Great Lawyers use their knowledge and creativity to craft solutions that I never even realized were possible. Michael approached my case and new information with an open mind and tailored creative solutions to any and all obstacles despite me telling him that my prior attorney said this or that couldn’t be done. We hit one big, tall, unbreakable brick wall and I was in despair what to do. Michael used perfect judgement in determining that the Wall was not worth climbing but instead used it as a negotiating tool where it mattered most and served me best.
Michael is a Great negotiator:
When it came time for mediation Michael helped me prepare and talked with me at length about what to expect which calmed me. Michael summed up my case to the mediator with stunning accuracy and compassion. He had developed a legal and moral argument of why my offer was truly the only fair and equitable outcome. It was remarkable to witness and moved me to tears to realize not only had Michael been listening to me all along but that he really believed in my case and that it mattered to him enough to be well prepared and organized when it was crunch time. The mediator agreed with his argument and I assume she helped opposing counsel agree as well because I received more then I dreamed was possible on the first offer. I was elated with the results and the papers were signed that day!
Great lawyers know how how to prepare effective, clear and well-reasoned legal documents:
As awesome as mediation went I had no idea how important the “boiler plate” legal document, memorializing our agreement was going to be. The first draft written by opposing counsel depressed me and I truly didn’t feel comfortable signing it - there were way too many “what if’s” left out. I expressed my concerns to Michael who told me not to worry and that he still had to review it. The next version, which Michael edited, was effective, clear and well reasoned and addressed every one of my concerns eliminating all my “what if’s”.
A Great Lawyer assembles a great team around him:
Michael and his para-legal Laura, were proactive and in constant communications keeping me updated and informed. I was so grateful to have such a caring and knowledgeable team assisting me during one of the most difficult and dark times in my life. Their passion for serving others was contagious and refreshing. Michael and Laura’s commitment to making things a “little bit better for me” have and will make a dramatic and positive impact on the rest of my life.- Cassandra -
I found Alexandria White through a neighborhood referral page and this office did not disappoint. From the very first meet (consult) she was very realistic about cost (less than I anticipated), timeframe, and the process. Advice was helpful in every choice I had to make. She was professional yet personal. There were a couple times my ex and his attorney were slow on deadlines and they took care of getting us back on track in a tactful and firm way while maintaining a positive tone with opposing counsel. The entire staff was friendly, efficient and I would make the confident choice to hire them all over again if needed.

Krista; I would like to thank Laura and yourself for all your help navigating this journey during the past year. You have both been sensitive to my needs and professional in your actions.- Stan J.

I have already referred Kevin to a few friends that are going to through the same things I went through for custody. During my first conversation with Kevin, he was very informative, knowledgeable, and felt very trustworthy and genuine. I had debating on hiring an attorney because of the cost and experiences in the past with other attorneys that I had, but after our initial conversation, I knew he was the right one for my case. Kevin always made me aware of all my options and helped me threw probably one the toughest times in my life. I will use him and his firm again if any issues should ever arise. The relief I felt knowing that he was on my side and fighting for what I wanted for my child was wonderful.- Cari
