Courtney Edwards

Courtney Edwards is a partner at Gendelman Klimas Edwards, Ltd., which maintains offices in Denver and Frisco, Colorado. Her family law work centers on helping people understand difficult legal choices, particularly when disagreements affect children. She approaches litigation with civility and attention to de-escalation while protecting clients’ positions. Her aim is to clarify legal procedures and help families focus on practical goals rather than unnecessary conflict.

Courtney earned a B.S. in Marketing from the University of Wyoming in 2007 and a J.D. with honors from the University of Wyoming College of Law in 2013. During law school, she participated in student legal organizations and earned recognition through the Order of the Coif. Her education, together with her courtroom background, supports a clear approach to explaining complex disputes and preparing clients for important decisions.

Before entering private practice, Courtney served as a deputy district attorney in Colorado’s Fifth Judicial District. Her prosecution experience provides insight into courtroom procedure and the ways evidence and advocacy can affect a case. In family matters, she pays close attention to domestic violence concerns, the needs of nontraditional families, and the interests of children. She seeks workable solutions when parties can reach agreement and remains prepared to litigate contested issues.

Courtney Edwards serves on Colorado’s Judicial Performance Review Committee and has held the position of vice chair. Her professional affiliations include the Colorado Bar Association, Continental Divide Bar Association, and Colorado Women’s Bar Association. She values candid discussions with clients about available options, difficult tradeoffs, and the likely course of a dispute. That emphasis on direct communication helps clients take part in decisions affecting their families and futures.
