Questions about divorce and the house in Arapahoe County
Where do I file for divorce in Arapahoe County?
Arapahoe County District Court, Arapahoe County Justice Center, 7325 S. Potomac St., Centennial 80112, (303) 645-6600. Divorce petitions are filed at the Justice Center in Centennial, not the older Littleton courthouse on Littleton Boulevard. Since January 2025 the 18th Judicial District covers Arapahoe County only.
How much does it cost to file?
The petition fee is $260 and the response fee is $146, set January 1, 2025. Co-petitioners who file together pay one fee. Fee waivers use form JDF 205 for households under 125% of the poverty line.
Is there free help at the courthouse?
Yes. Self-Help Center, Courthouse II Room 131, Centennial; 303-645-6845; Mon-Fri 8-12 and 1-4. Self-help staff explain forms and procedure; they cannot give legal advice.
How long does it take?
One spouse must have lived in Colorado 91 days before filing, and the decree cannot be entered until 91 days after the other spouse is served. Mandatory financial disclosures are due within 42 days. Most contested cases take longer than the minimum.
Do we have to go to mediation?
Colorado courts may refer any case to mediation, and most districts, including the 18th Judicial District, commonly require it before a contested permanent-orders hearing. The exception is a case involving abuse where a party objects.
Is there a parenting class?
If you have children under 18, most districts require a parenting-after-divorce class and a certificate filed with the court. The parents pay for it based on ability to pay.
How does the Arapahoe County court divide the house?
The same way every Colorado court does: equitably, under C.R.S. 14-10-113. The judge weighs each spouse's contribution, what each keeps, each spouse's finances afterward, and whether the parent with the kids should stay for a time. Most couples settle by selling and splitting the equity.
Can the court order the house sold?
Yes. If you cannot agree, the court can order the sale and can appoint someone to sign for a spouse who refuses. A neutral divorce realtor is often written into that order.
Do I need a lawyer?
Not legally, and many uncontested cases use the court's JDF forms with self-help support. If there is a house with equity, a pension, or kids, at least a consultation with an attorney is worth the cost. We can recommend divorce attorneys who work in this county.
