Supervised visitation across Denver County
Denver is a consolidated city-county — roughly 715,000 residents in a single jurisdiction that doubles as Colorado's capital and the hub of a three-million-person metro area. Unlike its suburban neighbors, everything inside the Denver city limits belongs to Denver County, and every family law case for county residents runs through one court system downtown.
TruVisit Denver supervisors meet Denver County families at locations close to where the child lives. We don't charge mileage and we don't make families drive across the county to a fixed office.
The Denver District Court
All Denver County family law cases — including supervised parenting time orders — are heard by the Denver District Court, Colorado's Second Judicial District. Civil and domestic relations matters are handled at the Denver City and County Building at 1437 Bannock Street in downtown Denver.
Our session reports are formatted in the objective, non-editorial, timestamped style this court expects. They're designed to be filed directly with the court, delivered to your attorney, or shared with a Child and Family Investigator or the child's legal representative.

How a Denver County family law case typically moves
- Petition filed — a dissolution of marriage petition, or a Petition for Allocation of Parental Responsibilities (form JDF 1413) for unmarried parents, filed with the Denver District Court (or by e-filing). The other party is served.
- Response — typically due 21 days after service for in-state parties.
- Initial Status Conference — Colorado domestic relations cases begin with an early case-management conference, typically within the first several weeks of filing.
- Mandatory financial disclosures — both parties exchange financial information early in the case under Colorado's domestic relations rules.
- Temporary orders hearing (if requested) — for interim parenting time, decision-making, and child support. Supervised parenting time can be ordered here.
- Mediation — Denver District Court judges commonly require mediation before contested hearings.
- Permanent orders hearing — for cases that don't settle, a bench trial before a district court judge. Colorado does not use juries in domestic relations cases.
- Decree / permanent orders.
Where supervised parenting time enters the process
- At Temporary Orders — interim supervised parenting time while the case is pending
- In Permanent Orders — longer-term supervised parenting time as part of the parenting plan
- By Motion to Modify Parenting Time (form JDF 1406) — changing an existing order under C.R.S. § 14-10-129
- By Motion to Restrict Parenting Time under C.R.S. § 14-10-129(4) — when a parent alleges imminent physical or emotional danger to the child, the court sets a hearing within 14 days
