From the initial phone call with Ms. Tygret I felt so comfortable and confident in her drive to fight this custody battle with the best outcome we can hope for. Whilst still in the middle of the court case, each step of the way Rachel has consistently provided me with assurance and she definitely is a fighter that will not give up!! Super personable and very easy to talk to. Not only is she my attorney but a friend as well who listens and understands and will do everything she can to help. She’s worth every penny!

When we had a legal issue that arose, my wife and I were at a standstill. When we contacted Mr. Harrison immediately we knew that we were in good hands. From the pre-discussion prior to meeting and work he showed his firm could offer contributed to our decision. We trusted and still trust Christopher not only for our legal and finances but who we are. I am grateful for the opportunity he gave us and the amount of attention and effort he did every step of the way. Great law, great people, great practice I trust.

Rochelle is an amazing attorney. She is better than lawyers who will try and charge you three times as much. I have talked to dozens of family attorneys in Las Vegas and she's the best, both professionally and personality wise.

Jason has a natural ability to transform difficult concepts into cogent and persuasive arguments both orally and in writing. As a litigator, he is assertive and confident; as a writer he is deliberate and conscientious; and as a person he is charming and witty.
Perhaps more than any other person I know, when Jason makes a statement, you can count on it being true. I have lost more than one argument by discovering that the facts were stubbornly in Jason's favor.

Corinne Price with Fine, Carman, and Price Law Group is extremely knowledgeable regarding family law. During the consultation she walked me through the whole divorce process and suggested next steps. Her determination to get her clients the best deal is very evident in and out of the courtroom. She was able to quickly draw up and get me the parenting plan and child support I wanted.
When my case ended up going to trial, Corinne came prepared with all the documents she needed. Because of this, the judge denied my ex-husband's request for spousal support. Her actions in and out of the courtroom exceeded my expectations. Corinne Price does not back down! Instead she backs up her statements with evidence, facts, and the law.
If you want an attorney who is prepared, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable I would highly recommend Corinne Price.

Zarinah has been the legal consultant in my custody case. She’s knowledgeable in family law and very helpful.
I have been defending myself in an unnecessary custody battle against my ex for the last 6 years and had very unpleasant experience with arrogant lawyers. I’m grateful that I finally found someone knowledgeable, honest and compassionate like Zarinah to help me with my custody case. She’s very professional but also made me feel like she really cared about my daughter. She is quick to answer questions and to give legal advice. Her rates are very reasonable, especially compared to the exaggerated rates of other family attorneys in town. I would definitely recommend Zarinah to anyone seeking legal help.

For 7 months, Zarinah worked on my case with John Jones. She was given quite the caseload with my unique issue. Same sex relationship with baby nightmare. She was a rocksta! Even being sick dua court hearing, she carried on like a trooper!!! Where she was not able to finish the case and moved on to better opportunities, she still took the time to calm my fears and gave me courage to keep going. I was very sad to see her go. Don't be fooled by her smile, she is a tiger and I highly recommend her!!

I went to Stovall & Assoc, since I needed an attorney out in Pahrump for a child custody case. Upon our first meeting I was very impressed with Lisa. She took a long time to understand everything and explain all my questions. While waiting for my case to be heard in court, I emailed her updates and she responded to every email within a day. She was excellent about this. The paperwork she drafted up was well written and concise. Sadly she went on maternity leave and had to hand off the case to another lawyer who did not have much experience. The guy was very nice, and I know will be outstanding one day, but the only complaint I had was lack in keeping in touch for the case when it was handed off.

I just wanted to give a good review for Nevada Defense Group. This is an AMAZING firm! They won my case against my ex. Monique Thompson took on my case. They spent an incredible amount of time on my case. They did everything in a timely manner. They dealt with my freak outs over what my ex and his wife were doing, and protected me. They were very kind and very patient with me. I would never use another firm in a child custody case.

Last year, my mother was stuck in a bad, toxic marriage. We began to look for a law firm to help her with the very messy, hectic situation she was in. Monique was very understanding and caring about the situation. She did everything she could to help and keep my mother informed about how things were going. Very responsive and considerate.

Tony was beyond attentive and patient with my constant questions, concerns and emotional responses that come with a hard custody battle. I couldn't be more grateful for the time spent, talks had and attention to detail that the Ford and Friedman team offered. Tony seriously was a god send with how he communicated the case with me; although I didnt get what I initially wanted, Tony was able to work in my and my daughters best interest.

was recommended to Anita and am not sorry that I hired her as my attorney. Her attitude is let's try to settle and not go to court since that costs so much more. However, my ex-husbands' attorney did not have the same attitude and once we realized court was inevitable, Anita prepared for trial. She was also responsive to calls and emails in a timely manner. . What I also like about her is that she does not try to antagonize the other attorney, (unlike my ex's attorney). In addition her staff are awesome and supportive and always willing to be there to help. I highly recommend Anita to anyone needing an attorney.

I recently turned to Dave again, for business documents, and many times before that for personal matters, including a home seller who didn't disclose a major issue. Dave is honest, reliable, and thorough. I highly recommend him.

Dave took my case to trial and did better than the settlement offers extended by the other side, by a large margin. He's willing to challenge the other side's lawyers (or the judge), yet knows how to control the room with a direct, comfortable presentation that is confidence-inspiring and familiar. I am deeply grateful that I had Dave representing me and recommend him to others.

After what I had thought was an amicable divorce from a cheating ex-wife and I had moved out of town being basically empty-handed, she dragged me back to court by amending the decree, attempting to now pin her frivolously acquired and undisclosed credit card debt on me as well. At first I was reluctant to hire an attorney since I had already let virtually everything go and I had thought that the judicial system had actually something to do with justice, but I soon realized that I was headed for a disaster if I continued to try to defend myself.
99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name. I was happy to learn that Michael Balabon falls into the remaining 1%. I got the recommendation to hire Mr. Balabon from a friend of mine–a successful criminal defense attorney–to represent me against my ex’s ludicrous demands. Since I had moved away, Mr. Balabon represented me in my absence and did an amazing job. I was working off-shore with very limited communication and then had moved back to my home country in Europe, so I had to put all my trust and faith into him, and he did not disappoint me. With the experience of working in that field for over 20 years, Mr. Balabon took a personal interest in my case and represented me with great vigor against my sociopathic ex-wife and her just as unreasonable attorney.
Communication ability & responsiveness:
Mr. Balabon was very communicative, kept me in the loop every step of the way and responded to my inquiries quickly and competently. He explained the judicial system and the probable outcome of my case very understandably and with great precision and foresight. I felt very understood and my concerns were taken seriously, and I know a lot about family law now–way more than I ever cared to know.
Quality of service:
I am very satisfied with Mr. Balabon's work. His approach was very detail-oriented, he asked the right questions, and was able to comprehend my situation which involved mutual transcontinental businesses as well as personal and professional debt and asset distribution. I attest that Mr. Balabon had an exceptional understanding and handling of my particular situation, and he applied all facts in court to my fullest satisfaction.
Value for money:
Mr. Balabon’s rates seem to be typical for attorneys in his field. However, what makes the difference is that his work actually justifies the rates he quotes. He went above and beyond his call of duty and worked diligently trying to reach a settlement (that the other party kept sabotaging until it had to end up in front of the judge), and he was able to obtain a judgment that was very much in my favor.
In summary, Mr. Balabon saved me a ton of money, gave me peace of mind, and practically freed me from being tied to a disappointing human being which could have been the case had it not been for Mr. Balabon's outstanding work. I wholeheartedly recommend Michael Balabon as an attorney if your case is important to you.

Ryan McElhinney Esq. of the Barber Law Group helped me reclaim my 'voice' after not being heard in the workplace for four years. Ryan gets results. He is sharp, compassionate, available, Ryan does not disappoint. He takes your case seriously and is very attentive. His staff is top notch as well. I was very fortunate to have been referred to Ryan McElhinney at the Barber Law Group. My emails and phone calls were always answered promptly. I was never left guessing as to the status of my case. I felt he cared. I highly recommend the Barber Law Group/Ryan McElhinney for any legal needs.

I didn't want to hire a lawyer. I thought I could do all relevant research myself. After extensive research of all applicable statutes, I concluded I needed a lawyer and consulted several. Elizabeth Bitter impressed me as the most knowledgeable. In fact she quickly provided the statute I needed and had merely glanced over. Ms Bittner accompanied me to court and was the key into the successful outcome of a complicated case.

We retained Mr. Lemcke to help us navigate through challenging post-divorce child support, child custody and decree enforcement litigation. Paul is an absolute professional in every sense. He is the kind of attorney you want to represent you; highly respected by fellow attorneys and judges alike. I trusted him implicitly as he guided us through the emotional ups and downs of our family court system and he never failed. If you need an honest, knowledgeable attorney of the highest caliber, Paul is the attorney 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:
-
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.
