John H. Tatlock

A Decisive and Compassionate Guide Through a Difficult Divorce

Navigating a high-conflict divorce after a 22-year marriage was one of the most daunting experiences of my life. I chose John Tatlock at Epstein Patierno LLP based on his extensive 37-year career and his specific recognition in Family Law. From our first meeting in his Denver office, his deep experience was evident. He didn't just recite legal statutes; he provided strategic counsel informed by decades of navigating Colorado family courts. John possesses a rare balance of assertive advocacy and genuine empathy. He was meticulously prepared for every hearing and negotiation, anticipating opposing counsel's moves. His guidance was crucial in securing a fair settlement regarding asset division and a workable parenting plan for our teenagers. While the process was emotionally taxing, having a lawyer of John's caliber—one recognized by Best Lawyers since 2015—provided immense reassurance. He demystified complex legal procedures and kept me focused on practical outcomes. I am profoundly grateful for his professionalism, his steady hand, and the positive resolution he helped achieve. I cannot recommend John H. Tatlock highly enough for anyone facing serious family law matters.
