We had retained and fired two attorneys before we found Bob. We hired Bob to represent my friend, a domestic abuse survivor, in the custody dispute against her abusive ex . By the time we hired Bob, we were “behind the 8 ball,“ as Bob put it. The court had just issued a temporary order allowing joint legal and physical custody, granting the abusive party control over his victim. It took numerous proceedings, documentation, witnesses, and eventually a trial to reveal the truth to the Court and attain justice. We are grateful to Bob for his willingness to take on our very complicated, difficult case, and his superb legal and strategic skills. It’s difficult to discuss domestic abuse at all, let alone to numerous professionals (judges, evaluators, etc.) in the court system. Bob was able to guide my friend through a harrowing journey with a steady hand, clear vision, and a compassionate heart.

I worked with Robert as my attorney for the last 2 years for my custody case. As a unmarried father in Minnesota, the odds are definitely against you. Robert was there for me through and through, and he wouldn't quit fighting for me to have equal parenting time with my son. We just recieved the good news, after going to trial, that we won! I was awarded joint physical/legal custody with my son! I couldn't have done it without him! He's made a bigger impact in my life than he knows! I can't wait to spend quality time with my boy. A special shout out to his assistant Amber as well. If I ever had a question about the small details, she was always there to answer it for me. Thanks again guys!! If you want an attorney that will fight for what you deserve, I'd definitely recommend Robert Manson Law.

Robert Manson was referred to me by a very good friend of mine. She was extremely satisfied with his work with her brother’s divorce proceedings. Based on that referral, I had the utmost pleasure in meeting with Robert Manson to discuss my divorce issues. Immediately it was evident that he was focused on what was fair and reasonable for me and my son in the divorce. He was able to provide a safe space for me to discuss my issues, what my goals were and allow me to ask for the things that were needed in making sure I was able to get through the divorce proceedings fairly with his ongoing support. His knowledge and experience of Family Law is invaluable. Especially since he has sat in front of so many Family Law Judges, he really has a wealth of experience in what to expect when there are issues that are being argued between parties in Court. He also was always available when any emergency occurred. He knew exactly what to do, took the appropriate action and was able to advise me on what my next steps were to be. He validated my concerns throughout the process. He also never compromised the safety of myself or my son in any decisions that were made throughout the proceedings. In a time that was very stressful, he made it so much more tolerable. I would recommend Robert Manson anytime for any Family Law issues that one may have. You will be extremely satisfied during a tough season of high stress.

I hired Robert (Bob) to represent my daughter and I in Family Court. I was seeking full legal and physical custody of my daughter. When Bob and I first met, we were quickly able to see my situation was in dire need of legal assistance. As a single father, this was by far the scariest thing I have faced in my life. Bob was able to take a pragmatic approach, explain to me the processes within the court system, and guide me through litigation with confidence. There were false claims of abuse and Bob was able to not only deal with them, but to bring an emergency motion that granted me temporary custody. As a trial lawyer, I couldn't have been more pleased with Bob's professionalism, knowledge and legal advice. Bob represented me in court on several occasions leading up to and ultimately throughout a 4 day trail. Bob's experience and knowledge of MN state law was key in our outcome.
I was awarded full legal and physical custody of my daughter and mother had to do supervised parenting time. My situation deserved this outcome, but Bob was the individual who brought the argument to the court and ultimately won the case. He chewed up mother's expert witness. He also represented me in post decree matters and was always responsive and on point. His fees were reasonable as well.
I have since referred my friends and family to seek Mr. Manson's services if they find themselves with any family law issues. They have all been as pleased as I was with his services.

I am so thankful for Mr. Manson. He helped in a very difficult child custody battle. He met with me when I most needed help. It is very hard for the Dad to get custody, but Mr. Manson worked through this and was able to get the custody awarded. He kept in contact and always informed me what to do. I would highly recommend him.

My son Ben was in a really neglectful environment with his mother running off with him, using meth, not allowing him a stable environment and endangering him. It took two years and two different counties, but Robert was there every step of the way filing motion after motion. Because of Roberts due diligence my son is now in a safe environment so he can grow and prosper. Thank you.

Robert Manson has changed my life life for the better. Going into what was an extremely stressful custody battle, Robert allowed me to make a connection with my newborn son. At the beginning of my custody battle I hired a fathers rights lawyer thinking my odds of getting to be a part of my sons life would be pretty good. Turns out not so much. Then my mom suggested Robert Manson and I gave him a call. Not only does he know his way around the law, he genuinely cares about his clients and takes the time to get to know them and their history. I would absolutely use his services again!

Bob has been our lawyer for little over 4 years now in what seems to be a circus ring of a custody battle sh*tshow. He is relatable, his advice is realistic, and the ONLY reason our case has taken as long as it has is because of the judge in our case. He always says what amounts to "Well, you've made your case, but I'm not going to hold the other parent accountable." and that's not Bob's fault at all. Well, we are FINALLY getting somewhere and we could not have done it without Bob! Even if I'm getting billed for it, I always look forward to his calls because he's always got a great story and more importantly, cares very much for the ordeal he has seen our children go through over the years.
He is articulate, knowledgable of our case and the law, and very realistic about what to expect. He never makes any promises, so anyone who says that he "didn't do what he promised" is lying, Bob says it straight up every time that there are no guarantees in family court, and there really aren't. We are still ongoing right now with our case, and I can't wait to see his skills in trial. If they're anything like what we've seen so far, our battle is almost (because it's family law and there are no "sure things") certainly coming to an end! His prices are more than reasonable for a lawyer with such vast experience as well, which is just gravy. Thanks so much for everything, Bob!
