Ishtiaque “Ish” Hossain helps clients navigate family law and criminal defense matters with preparation, clarity, and strong advocacy. With legal experience in both the United States and the United Kingdom, Ish brings a broad legal perspective to every case, while staying focused on what matters most to his clients: understanding their options, protecting their future, and having an advocate they can trust during difficult and high-stakes moments.

Before joining Altitude Family Law, Ish served as a Deputy District Attorney in Colorado’s 7th Judicial District, where he handled a substantial courtroom docket and developed the trial skills that continue to shape his practice today. He has participated in more than 25 jury and bench trials and has resolved many additional matters through negotiation, motions, and careful case
preparation.

At Altitude Family Law, Ish represents clients in divorce, allocation of parental responsibilities, child support, spousal maintenance, protection orders, contempt and enforcement matters, complex financial disputes, and criminal defense matters. His background in both family law and criminal litigation gives him valuable insight in high-conflict cases, especially when credibility, safety, financial disclosure, protection orders, or criminal allegations may affect a client’s family, reputation, and long-term stability.

Clients working with Ish can expect direct advice, thoughtful guidance, and a clear understanding of the path ahead. He knows that legal disputes are not just legal problems, they are personal, stressful, and often life-changing. Ish’s goal is to help clients move through those moments with confidence, preparation, and a strategy built around protecting what matters most.
