Excellent Attorney

Mr. Rodden agreed to represent me pro se regarding obtaining a restraining order post domestic violence. I work in law myself, and must say Attorney Rodden is one of the most professional, knowledgable and helpful Attorneys I've ever communicated with. Given the sensitive circumstances of this type o...f case, he was extremely thorough, patient, and compassionate. He met with me quickly and took the time to explain everything. I know Attorneys times are valuable, and Attorney Rodden always communicated with me promptly. He made the whole much less stressful. I would recommend Attorney Rodden to anybody who needs a confident, helpful, knowledgeable Attorney.

An amazing, caring attorney, worth every dime

I cannot say enough about Max Rodden. First of all, he cares. That alone is worth his hourly rate. He fought HARD for me and my daughters and never steered me wrong, all of his advice was on point and he won every single motion he filed in my case. He is very personable, and down to earth. He is also... very fair when it comes to billing. I know for certain I could not have been in better hands throughout a highly contentious divorce. I would highly recommend him. He is always a step ahead of the opposing attorney and out smarts them. My ex husband went through 5 attorneys, yes 5 during our divorce because none of them could handle Max!
