Courtney took my case and made it feel like it was her own. She took the time to fully understand the case history, what my goals were and why I was advocating for them. She continually kept me in the loop with updates and communications throughout. Once we went to court, Courtney blew me away. She was incredibly well composed yet tenacious as her intellectual prowess became apparent. I watched in awe as she methodically tore apart each and every opposing argument. It felt like I had been vindicated after all the previous years with other attorneys which I attribute that to both Courtney’s intellect as well as her desire to understand the case on a personal level.

Courtney Mcconomy is a superior attorney at this firm. Rare find, she predicts and strategizes her moves. I would like to thank Courtney for being thorough, organized, and persistent. It was a total check and mate to the other party who's goals and actions were unjustified. All best to you Courtney and your team!

I can't begin to explain what an amazing attorney Courtney McConomy is. She responds quickly to emails and calls, explains all of the options clearly and is an absolute fighter for what you want in your divorce or child custody matter. For many people, this is one of the hardest and scariest things they have had to deal with in their lives, and Courtney (along with her amazing paralegal, Daniel) hold your hand along the way. Courtney is so knowledgeable and provides a wealth of knowledge and experience in a variety of Metro counties. She is on multiple boards and groups so she has lots of connections to draw from. What I also appreciate about Courtney is that if she doesn't know an answer (which is rare), she is not afraid to say that and get the answer from her awesome team at this firm. When you hire Courtney you are not just getting her, you are hiring a great firm. Courtney is always there to listen, take notes and provide a calmness to the room. I have done multiple mediations with her and each time she provides creative solutions to a situation that seemed to be insurmountable. I have and will continue to recommend Courtney to friends who need a strong, smart and hardworking attorney who can handle even the toughest of cases.

​Selecting Alethea K. Rebman, Attorney at Law is the right choice. Your divorce attorney can significantly affect the outcome of your case and the overall experience during this challenging process. Alethea is known for providing dedicated legal representation, she offers extensive tax & retirement knowledge and experience in family law, aiming to resolve cases efficiently for the best possible outcome. Alethea's deposition uncovered diverted funds, which I had no idea my spouse was hiding. She worked tirelessly on all the details, including the appraisal on my home. My spouse had paid an appraiser to overvalue our property in order to lessen my share of the assets. She was so compassionate with my financial situation. I'm a realtor, so I paid her only when I made a sale, which removed a lot of stress from my life. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be where I am today. She has become a TRUSTED friend and advisor. If you want a fair settlement, she will fight for you, her ethics are stellar.

Alethea Rebman is simply the best attorney ever. She's responsive and fierce and patient and specific, exactly the kind of person you'd want in your corner. She assisted my fiance with a motion for post-decree relief after his divorce, and we will absolutely not hesitate to hire her if we have need of her services in the future. What a great advocate.

I was searching for an attorney for a post divorce issue when Alethea Rebman was highly recommended to me by a friend. My original attorney had proved to be incompetent, and another well known attorney I contacted declined my case, telling me I would not prevail. When I contacted Alethea she took the time to thoroughly listen to my case, ask relevant questions, and then she agreed to represent me. It was a particularly hard time in my life as I had a family member ill with cancer and another with a serious drug addiction. Alethea was always compassionate and concerned with my well being. She is extremely smart, focused, and impressive in the courtroom. She fought tirelessly for me. By the end of my case, which she brilliantly won, I felt she was not only my attorney but also a trusted friend. I highly recommend Alethea Rebman and her firm.

My divorce case was public safety related involving complicated pension matters. Zalena was extremely knowledgeable and effective in representing my petitions.

I had begun my Court case journey with Zalena during the early 1990's. My divorce took about two years to resolve, and child custody continued another five years before I received full custody of my daughter. The case was very difficult and complex at times mainly due to the financial means of my ex's family and the legal representation they were able to obtain. Zelena and her team had to contend with a couple of different high-powered AZ law firms in order to get the matter settled via the Court. Zelena was determined to obtain an outcome that would serve both my daughter and me over the long haul. We were eventually able to move on with our daily lives uninterrupted from court proceedings. This would not have happened without Zalena's tireless efforts with my case. Please remember during the 1990's, representing a guy was probably a bit more difficult at that time than it probably is today. Fast forward 25 years later, I'm a member of the Arizona State Retirement System and I begin looking into retiring, it was during that time that I found out that the Domestic Relations Order (DRO) was being interpreted by ASRS differently than what was intended. Lucky for me Zalena was still practicing, I called her up and discussed the issue, she refiled to correct the DRO and ASRS had the updated document within a month or so which was very timely because the Courts were closed for physical entry during this time due to the covid pandemic. I guess the most important thing that I would like you to know about Zalena is that she won't be out worked.

Zalena Kersting was my attorney of choice not once but three time in my divorce and child custody proceedings over 10+ years. Dealing with a narcissistic co-parent brings unique challenges to the table. At each phase, Zalena handled the case with competence and efficiency. I was always informed on the status of my case and her preparation prior to and in the courtroom gave me confidence I could protect my child. I have and would continue to highly recommend Zalena.

If you are looking for a lawyer who is going to dry your tears and listen to your drama look elsewhere. She is on your side enough to be straight with you to let you know that she is not your counselor. I knew where I was at in my case. She made it clear what to fight for and what to dismiss. She was beyond pleasant but 100% professional at all times. When you go into court you have a precise reasonable plan which makes you look good in front of the judge. She's knows her stuff.

Going through the life change of a divorce was tough and emotional, but Erik and Diana make the process easy to understand and navigate. My ex-spouse and I wanted to proceed as amenably and equitably as possible to keep it from becoming even tougher, and the Larson team really helped enable that. They provide advice and treated me compassionately without being pushy or turning the process sour and vindictive. Since they work together to represent their clients, they’re extremely responsive. I trusted them the entire way to help us navigate splitting of assets and interact with the courts. If you’re finding yourself in this situation, I promise the team at the Larson Law Office will advocate for you and help make it less stressful.

I'm glad I was able to find Justin to help with my will and the other forms he suggested. When I got hurt from an accident I knew I needed to get my things together. Justin was able to do everything over the telephone and email because I could not come to his office because of the accident. When it was time to sign all the documents he was able to get a notary and witnesses to come to my house. I did not have to worry about doing anything.

My husband and I both decided we wanted to get a divorce and not make it a bigger deal than what it needed to be. My husband was referred to Justin through Fathers for Equal Rights. Justin was very attentive to listening to our concerns and knowledgeable about how we should proceed with the divorce. Instead of feeling any pressure to hire a lawyer, Justin suggested that we may want to consider not each hiring lawyers and we each represent ourselves. Justin did suggest having someone draft our documents just to make sure our documents were done correctly. Looking back, I am so glad we took Justin's suggestion. We decided to have Justin draft all the documents we would need for court. He spent time with us to go through the entire process and answered any questions we had. What made us feel more at ease was that Justin was quick to get back to us if we had any questions. We were able to save a lot of money by working with Justin. I recommend you speak to him just to go over your options.

I hired Mr. Stone off the recommendation from a friend. In the process of trying to recover my wrongfully withheld security deposit from my former landlord, I was countersued and subsequently lost in small claims court. After Mr. Stone reviewed my case, he gathered evidence in my favor through various legal routes that I would have been unable to myself. We then filed an appeal which was heard in a higher court. My landlord settled days before the trial and dropped his countersuit. Additionally, he returned my full security deposit and paid all my lawyer fees, including other accrued charges in the legal process. Mr. Stone put a tremendous amount of effort and time into my case and I would trust him with any other legal issues that would require an honest, experienced lawyer.

After transitioning from another attorney, Lianna took over my case and made a significant impact with her prompt and efficient handling. Lianna swiftly assessed the complexities of my situation and developed a clear, strategic plan. Her timely and thorough approach was crucial, particularly when we needed to address the temporary orders hearing before the final decree. She ensured that all necessary steps were taken promptly to secure interim arrangements that supported my child's well-being and stability. A key focus of my case was child custody, and Lianna was exceptional in managing this sensitive issue. She concentrated on helping me establish protective parenting arrangements, advocating effectively to ensure a stable and secure environment for my son throughout the process. Lianna’s extensive knowledge of family law and her strategic insight were evident from the start.

She was professional, but personal and caring, and her experience level with the issues I was facing carried me through the process with confidence and clarity each step of the way. The experience I had with her staff was the same. I like to ask a lot of questions and appreciated the way I was given complete and accurate legal advice with every question so that I felt confident and assured in all my decisions.

His level of understanding and application is beyond his peers in family and criminal law. I think its incredible that his services are available to mainstream America. I wouldn't hesitate.

I was referred to Mr Pettrey by my personal lawyer regarding a formal separation with my husband. My lawyer could not handle the case because in the past he had done work for us both . Mr Pettrey is a no nonsense , determined lawyer that WILL yield results for his client. My husband did not want to do anything , tried to change the terms of our agreement . Mr. Pettrey is aggressive and did not waiver . Not only did my ex have to adhere to the agreement , Mr. Pettrey was able to have him pay legal fees as well . I highly recommend Mr. Pettrey for separation or divorce, and his ability to obtain the best terms for his clients

Leslie represented me in a custody/visitation and child support matter that lasted a few years. During those years Leslie was always quick to answer my questions. She always addressed my questions and concerns with compassion and understanding that the court process is intimidating and at times scary especially when it comes to your child. Leslie took time to explain how things worked from start to finish and continued to check in on us after court proceedings were over. If your looking for an attorney that has compassion, works hard and has the willingness to go above and beyond for you then Leslie is the attorney you need.

Leslie made me feel comfortable from the beginning with her down to earth personality and friendliness. She was knowledgeable and helpful guiding me throughout my separation and divorce process. I am the type of person that likes to know all the details and steps, and she answered all my questions in a thorough, but easy to understand way. She was prompt in responding back to me and keeping me updated on any changes to my case. I felt at ease with her as my lawyer and knew that she was looking out for me. I am grateful that I found Leslie to assist me during the most difficult period in my life.

Elizabeth and her team were able to drive my mother-in-law through Green Card approval process to completion. The process hit some unfortunate turns when she received incorrect documentation from other countries (Hungary) that was not accepted by US processing center without explanation. We have spend months and months in attempts to find out the reason and move the case from the dead point, including involving senator request to US visa processing center officials. During this time, Elizabeth and her team (Sofia Solonari) were constantly in support. They were tried their best researching similar cases and providing their best advises based on their inner knowledge of the processing system and procedures. Without their guidance we would be lost in the confusing world of hundreds document, forms, and procedures.

Jennifer Cannon-Unione provided top-notch representation to a relative of mine in a personal injury case with catastrophic injuries. The legal and medical issues were complex . Jennifer understood them and navigated them expertly. She chose the right experts to assist. She was always available when we needed her, and answered all of our questions. She is compassionate and patient. I am an attorney in another state and have high standards for other attorneys. Jennifer sets the bar very high and I would recommend her to anyone.

I will always be profoundly grateful for the competent, truly capable and professional care that Jennifer and her team have shown me. Not only did she represent me every step of the way but she went above and beyond in offering ongoing support and sincere compassion to me in my recovery from a terrible motor vehicle accident. I not only consider her a true professional but a trusted friend who will have your back and not let you down. Jennifer’s knowledge and experience are I believe truly the best in the field and her practice in the Seattle area is one of the strongest you can find. If you have had a prior negative experience with a lawyer, you can be reassured that your case will be held to the highest standards from start to completion and your concerns treated with the attention that they deserve. I have only words of appreciation for Jennifer and her team and will always be thankful that I somehow found her as a referral from a friend of a friend. You need not look any further in your search for a wise and caring lawyer where you will be treated with respect and kindness. You can place your trust in her and her team and be rest assured that you will have the most knowledgeable and competent advice, ongoing support, and the best positive outcome that is humanly possible.

Kevin helped me as my parenting plan modification proceeded toward trial. I had been working on my case pro se up to that point with some support from legal advocates and was nervous about trusting an attorney with my fate and that of my daughter. Up to that point I had experienced a lot of trauma at the hands of the legal system in my fight to protect my child, and I needed someone who could navigate the complexities of domestic violence and family law well. Enter Kevin. I knew the first time that I talked to Kevin that he was the attorney I had been searching for all along. He is an incredibly talented attorney who cares deeply about his clients. Kevin has a strong sense of justice and will never let you be bullied. He is also straightforward and will help guide you to make informed decisions. Kevin is compassionate and helped guide me through challenging pieces of my case where I felt like the human embodiment of anxiety with kindness and understanding. Kevin helped me secure a restraining order and a protective parenting plan to keep my daughter safe through his powers of negotiation, saving me the stress and expense of trial. Kevin's overall approach of respect and kindness with firm boundaries should be seen as a model for all, whether in the legal profession or not. Kevin worked diligently on my case and kept in constant communication with me and opposing counsel. Kevin exceeded my expectations in abilities and character, and he is easily one of the best in his profession.

I don't have the words to be able to describe how Mr. Chang was as my husbands attorney. We were put in a situation that we had no clue how to get out of due to the Trump administration targeting people with past criminal offenses, with the diligent, hard work, consistent assistance of Mr. Chang everything worked out in the favor of my husband. Mr. Chang spoke to me in layman terms and that is very rare for attorneys to do that. He explained everything to me, made me feel confident that I chose the right person to represent my husband. After 5month is immigration lock down in Krome awaiting to be deported, By the grace of God and Mr. Chang my husband was released and now an AMERICAN CITIZEN! I will be forever grateful!

Angelica took care of my Adjustment of Status case in the best possible way. My spouse at that time didn’t have job and I thought there is nothing we can do since we couldn't find a joint sponsor. Angelica found solution to our issue and we finished my green card process within 6 months. She is extremely professional and honest and her fees are lower than what most of other lawyers charge. At least give her a call, make an appointment, talk with her and I convince you that you will immediately realize that she is the right lawyer for you.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.

Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.

When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?

Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
  • Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
  • Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
  • Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
  • Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
  • Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
  • Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?

A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:

  • Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
  • Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
  • Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
  • Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
  • Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
  • Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
  • Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?

Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
  • Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
  • Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.

The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:

  • Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
  • Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
  • Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.

Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer

Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:

  1. What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption.
  2. How will you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved.
  3. What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case.
  4. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals.
  5. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases.
  6. Who will be handling my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.

How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
  • Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
  • Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
  • List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
  • Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
  • Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.

Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
