Intelligent, Caring, and Efficient

I’m very glad that I chose Robert Manson to represent me in my custody and support modification. Robert was upfront, professional and he kept me informed through the entire process of my case. He seemed to genuinely care about me and my children. He was very easily reached and accessible when I had... a question. Robert worked in a fast and efficient manner which kept the legal fees lower. I was able to change exactly what I wanted to change, in less time and less stress, thanks to Robert and his paralegal Nancy. I don’t think I could have chose a better attorney or person to handle my situation. I personally felt that he’s the best, and I’d highly recommend him. Thank you!

excellent lawyer

We needed an attorney to assist us with a debt dispute we were having with our timeshare company. After numerous attempts to resolve this on our own and exhausting our resources, we turned to Mr. Manson who was recommended by our family. After a thorough consultation, we retained his services. Bo...b went right to work for us immediately. He kept us informed on every aspect of our case. This included numerous back and forth conversations regarding negotiations and settlement to resolve our debt dispute. As frustrated as we were trying to resolve this on our own, once we retained Bob, this process seemed to move along seamlessly. We cannot thank Bob enough for everything he did for us resolving this matter so quickly. We can now put this nightmare behind us and move on with our lives. We would strongly recommend Robert Manson and will not hesitate to retain his services in the future.

paternity and custody

Mr. Manson clearly told me what to expect and guided me through a difficult case. I was able to get custody of my son. As a father, I was surprised, but Mr. Manson was ready at every turn and really great in court.

Very Good at Family Law

Robert guided us through the custody process in a straight forward manner and got us every thing that we asked for. He has a very easygoing appearance at first - but is a pit bull when it goes to court. He is the best guy to have on your side in the courtroom.

Family lawyer | Apr 23

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Robert Manson works very hard for his clients applying the skills he has developed over the course of his twenty-three years as a Minnesota family law lawyer. Although he is well known for his rigorous and detailed trial preparation and litigation skills, he prefers settlement over court battles. But whether in the court room, or the mediation table, the most important outcome for Mr. Manson is a favorable one, for his client."
