The Drake Law Firm PC

The Drake Law Firm PC, founded in 2011 by Marie Drake, operates as a full-service family law practice dedicated to providing strategic, solution-focused legal representation for families throughout Jefferson County and the greater Denver metropolitan area. With offices strategically positioned in both Golden and Lakewood at 12600 W. Colfax Ave., Suite B-400, the firm ensures convenient access for clients managing busy schedules and complex family circumstances. Marie Drake, the firm's founder and lead attorney, has been practicing law since 1999, bringing more than two decades of sophisticated legal experience to every matter her firm handles. Her approach to family law practice emphasizes active listening and a proactive legal strategy that ensures clients receive personalized, effective guidance in both litigation and transactional matters. The Drake Law Firm's practice encompasses the comprehensive range of family law matters: divorce and legal separation, child custody and parental responsibility allocation, child support calculations and modifications, spousal maintenance determinations, common law marriage analysis, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, post-decree modifications addressing changed circumstances, paternity proceedings, protection orders, and mediation services. This breadth of practice areas enables the firm to serve clients through various life stages and family transitions, from prenuptial planning before marriage through post-decree modifications as families' circumstances evolve. Marie's founding decision to establish The Drake Law Firm in 2011 reflected her commitment to building a practice culture emphasizing genuine client service, strategic excellence, and solution-focused problem-solving rather than merely pushing cases toward litigation without considering clients' actual goals. This philosophy has proven particularly valuable in family law practice, where litigation, while sometimes necessary, is not always the best path to achieving clients' long-term interests or preserving family relationships. The firm offers both litigation services for contested matters and mediation services for couples seeking collaborative resolution approaches, enabling clients to select the dispute resolution method best suited to their circumstances and preferences. For families throughout the Denver metropolitan area and Jefferson County seeking family law representation grounded in genuine listening, strategic excellence, and commitment to solution-focused representation, The Drake Law Firm offers a partnership built on proven experience and dedication to helping families navigate divorce and related transitions with clarity and effectiveness.
