We came to Rennie out of Casper to help us with a custody issue! She listened, she cared and she got everything accomplished that we asked on a very professional level. Anyone needing a good family lawyer, I highly recommend Rennie!

Rennie was amazing and compassionate through the whole process. She is so knowledgeable and really understands what details are needed in a visitation schedule. That knowledge saved me what I could only imagine would have been a lot of heartbreak and turmoil later on. She was with me every step of the way making sure I was standing up for what I deserved and helping me make informed decisions on when I should compromise.

Baend isn’t your average attorney. He was upfront and even told me initially he may not be able to handle my case as it wasn’t his specialty, but promised to be transparent thru the process. He ended up doing an amazing job, despite my case becoming much more complicated than he originally anticipated. Baend’s hardwork and willingness to dig deep for evidence in my case, provided a more favorable outcome than I had hoped for.

Sarah did amazing with my case. She was the second lawyer we hired and she did everything I hoped for. Her and her paralegals were quick to respond in any situation and she went out of her way to get a motion for court going. I wouldn't recommend anyone else in the state of Wyoming when it comes to a custody case! Sarah was profession, on the ball, and always looking out for mine and my son best interest.

This was a tough case to begin with. Sarah Jacobs-Manwarren was not our first attorney, she handled the appeal process. It was a year and a half long appeal. Every step of the way she was upfront and straight with us on what to expect. We are extremely happy with the outcome of this case. I will recommend her law firm to anyone that is needing a great family court attorney.

Sarah was amazing. Very dependable, smart, caring and generous. She helped my daughter through a nasty divorce case and wasn't afraid to act quickly as needed to help her. She amazed me as to how much she knew about everything we asked her. Even after the divorce was final, she and her staff stayed by my daughter's side making sure she had all she needed even to the point of helping her move her things out. Sarah and her staff are definitely devoted to their clients' needs and interests. Thank you very much Sarah and staff.

Jennifer handled my Divorce and my Will. She has the utmost professionalism and is a caring human also. During the divorce, her knowledge saved me from making several mistakes that would have ruined me financially. The Will, being a sad subject , was handled with kindness, professionalism and ease. I recommend Jacobs and Polidora to all my friends and coworkers.

I hired Stacy for a complicated custody situation. She did not back down and represented me as a professional. Being a single dad and wanting the same rights to my son as the mother, it was an up hill battle but she did a great job navigating a complicated case. Thank you Stacy, for everything you did for me and my Son!

The impact that a great lawyer can have on one’s life is unmeasurable. This journey wasn’t easy and truly tested my patience and at some moments faith, but I trusted Stacy’s word and now I can finally stop the worries and have my son with full custody.
I have had the opportunity to work with Stacy on several occasions over the last three years and she is hands down the one and only lawyer I trust to represent me.
Stacy has guided and mentored me through difficult situations that I was faced with to ensure I did what was always in the best interest of my son. She has told me the truth at times when I did not want to hear it, but knowingly it was the right advice to take. She encouraged me to teach myself how to separate my emotions and stay professional at all times.
As I said this has been a journey, but I chose the right path to take and that was to hire Stacy.

After working with another attorney for months, I was getting discouraged so I met with Stacy to discuss my uphill chances, as a dad and a defendant, to get primary custody of my infant daughter. Stacy immediately demonstrated her superior legal expertise.
Stacy demonstrated her outstanding ability to formulate a winning legal strategy by focusing on the most important aspects of my case - what a breath of fresh air. She quickly developed an overview and demonstrated her excellent analytical skills by pulling the relevant pieces from the large volume of written material in a matter of days. Stacy read everything! She did not cut corners.
Stacy showed her superb organizational skills by summarizing the evidence in a systematic spreadsheet, a mere glance showed in a clear fashion how the evidence fit together in a convincing manner. My case is considered difficult and complex, the seasoned judge wrote that he had not encountered in one case so many difficult aspects.
Stacy was very prompt in her communication, she works in real-time, she never left me hanging. Stacy demanded transparency and she always performed due diligence, if I could not provide evidence to confirm a claim it was not going to be used. Period. This speaks volumes about Stacy’s integrity.
I am very familiar with Stacy’s tremendous work ethic and her outstanding ability to present the essence of disparate pieces of information in a concise, persuasive manner. Stacy’s motions were clear, compelling and always filed in a timely manner. Before trial, Stacy prepared me for what to expect on the witness stand and how to conduct myself during the cross-examination by the opposing counsel. This speaks volumes for Stacy’s passion for her work.
It was in the courtroom that I saw the same professional side of Stacy, her cross-examination of witnesses was professional and devastatingly effective and without any of the horse and pony show elements used by the opposing counsel. In the weeks leading up to trial we were exchanging dozens of email a day to go over the hundreds of pages of last minute records that we received from the opposing side. To say that Stacy thoroughly prepared my case for trial is not an understatement.
Stacy made her capable and efficient staff available to me for small and big things related to the case.
I admire how personable Stacy is, her calm demeanor is very reassuring. I trust her. My confidence in her legal competence is absolute.

Matzen Legal came to my rescue after my first attorney let me down. Jason personally oversaw proceedings; he was sympathetic toward my dilemma and knowledgeably advised me of my options. Jason is personable, discerning, and communicative; his open demeanor caused me to feel confident in my representation. I found Matzen Legal to be friendly and integritous. I unreservedly recommend the firm.

It's not common to talk with a lawyer in regards to a legal situation when the lawyer has nothing to gain from the conversation, but this is exactly what happened when I contacted Joshua Merseal. I called Josh and he quickly and politely fit me into his schedule later that day. When we spoke later Josh took his time listening to my situation and provided answers to every question I asked of him. Once we were ending the phone call I asked if he would be able to take this case on. He stated that he would like to, but needed to put the majority of his time towards a large case which he expected to end in February. In the end I was able to receive quality legal assistance from an individual, who I believe, just enjoys helping others.

My review of Mr. Merseal's legal representation
Joshua is greatly knowledgeable in criminal defense.
He showed concern for my legal issue, explained what process we should follow and how we should move forward. Joshua treated me with attention handling my serious legal issue with extreme caution giving me several options to choose from and informed me which one would work best in my case. He did exactly what we agreed to and the outcome was in my favor my family's money was well spent for his time and efforts. I am glad we chose Mr. Merseal to help us get through this hardship you defiantly need him on your side of the court room. Joshua is well educated ( on both sides of the fence so to speak knowing the defensive and prosecution.) He knew what path to search out to get my family the best possible outcome. Mr. Merseal had my felony charge dismissed to a misdemeanor and ultimately saved me from losing everything. Need I say more? Very Satisfied very Trustworthy......

Tony is down to earth. He's a real person, who's seen it all. He's sensitive to the situation, but doesn't mess around or beat around the bush. He's honest, whether you like what he has to say or not. He's articulate and, if he has to be, forceful in court. He's sharp as a tack, and any lawyers going up against him better be on their toes, because he's quick and nothing gets past him. He's a little arrogant, but he's paid his dues and deserves to be.
As a judge he's tough, because he has the best interest of of all involved in mind at all times. We're lucky to have Tony in Laramie.

I hired Cheryl to represent me in a messy custody case. The legal representation that she provided went above and beyond what I was expecting. She was very thorough throughout the entire process and was amazing in the courtroom. She responded to every singly phone call and email within a day. Her diligence in collecting facts on my case was hands down the reason that I walked out of the courtroom that day confident that a decision would be made in my favor.... And it was.
This was obviously a very emotional time for all family members involved. Cheryl's calm demeanor made me feel at ease that the legal decisions I was making were in the best interest for my family.
Highly recommend her for any type of family/custody legal matters.

Maybe the law firm as a whole is good. But I would not trust Micheal Bennet to be my attorney especially if you're in Carbon County as he is a municipal judge there. He told me to take a plea deal on a case where the warrant was expired it was served at night when it was written for day time only the Carbon County Sheriffs had lost 2 bodycam footage before the last one. I mean a free defense attorney could have fought this case with more vigor. But he talks a great game. $15,000 for my felony case. I was a great cop perfect track record. Come from Colorado perfect record never even a speeding ticket, case was handled by an inept deputy who couldn't even testify at my termination hearing without stuttering and flailing as he was lying. We had video and audio evidence to constrict everything. But good ol boy Micheal Bennet said take the plea deal and we will go on the offensive against them. I will tell the paper and radio on your behalf all the items they did wrong. You won't have this wrongful felony against you just a minor misdemeanor. Well $15,000 got me about 45 min of work for him. We signed the plea deal and he ghosted us. Since then we have had numerous deputies come to us saying how I was railroaded and our attorney from this law firm was along for the ride.

As a long time practicing attorney, I know what it means to work hard for a client, to counsel a client, and to advocate for a client. And that is why I hired Devon to represent me. Devon does all of those as well if not better than any attorney I have ever known. She came highly recommended and I couldn't be more satisfied with my choice. She clearly communicated the strengths and weaknesses of my case, gave me an honest perspective based on her vast experience, and allowed me to make an informed decision, always immediately responsive to my questions and concerns. It was also very apparent to me during my litigation that Devon has the respect and admiration of her colleagues and the court where we appeared. She is reasonable too, and as such considers the costs of protracted litigation to her client from a financial perspective, but also from an emotional one. In my case, it was necessary to litigate, and I can say with confidence that Devon's skills in the courtroom, her command of the facts and law, were the reason we were successful in our suit. I recommended Devon to another professional, a friend of mine, and I know that his experience with her mirrored mine. There are other good civil litigators in this state, but I don't think there is a better one.

Devon did not get discovery completed, missed deadlines and did not turn over my evidence so I couldn’t present it. Great at talking a big game and then can’t produce. Hire someone else. She will make you lose everything.

Divorce is such a stressful time in anyone’s life. Devon’s expertise and professionalism went above and beyond my expectations throughout the course of my recent case. The fact that she excepted my case pro bono was a tremendous blessing during a very difficult and uncertain time in my life. Devon’s excellent communication and prompt responses were very reassuring and alleviated a lot of anxiety. She is a genuinely caring person as well as a top notch attorney. I would not hesitate to recommend Devon to anyone looking for an experienced divorce attorney.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
