Jon Bereman joins Robinson Waters O’Dorisio’s Family Law Group after six years in Chicago and experience at a boutique family law firm in Denver, where he focused his practice on complex asset division and high-net-worth divorce cases. Over the course of his career, he has gained a reputation as one of the most experienced and highly regarded young divorce attorneys. Jon has developed a reputation for guiding his clients through high conflict situations with a calm and reasonable approach with the goal of negotiating an advantageous settlement wherever possible. He is also an accomplished litigator who vigorously defends his client’s interests in Court. Jon prides himself in demanding nothing but excellence in properly, intelligently, and honorably representing his clients who come to a divorce attorney for help.

Jon currently serves on the Executive Council of the Colorado Bar Association Family Law Section, a position to which he was elected by his peers. He has been recognized as a “Ones to Watch in America” by The Best Lawyers every year since 2022 and as a “Rising Star” by Super Lawyers since 2018.

Throughout his career, Jon has been the lead attorney successfully securing decisions for his clients, including a $138,000 child support judgment that was affirmed on appeal. He has negotiated hundreds of other favorable outcomes involving complex issues of business valuations, characterization of marital and non-marital assets of multimillion-dollar estates, child support, maintenance, and highly contested child related matters.

Jon’s practice is deeply rooted in his dedication to the service of others and our community. Jon was a founding Board Member of The Herd at the Denver Zoo.
