Great Divorce Lawyer for Men!!

Bob did a great job handling my divorce. Bob understood the challenges men have, particularly with child custody. My ex-spouse wouldn't budge on any custody for me, so the judge said if we couldn't come to an agreement she would award full custody to one parent. Bob advocated for me, assured that... the right people were reviewing custody information and assured fairness with opposing council. In the end I was granted full custody of my 2 children. I would highly recommend Bob to men who are struggling with custody issues.

Great Attorney for High Conflict, Complicated, and Difficult Cases

Robert Manson at Manson Family Law office is one of the best. Bob can handle any family law case and go up against the best of them out there and win. Bob at Manson Family Law is very experience in complicated, high conflict divorces. Bob is great inside the courtroom, and very personable outside the... courtroom. Bob works the case as if it was his own. My experience with other attorneys, is they like to just bill your file. Bob bills your file he is actually working hard on it. Bob works hard for the client , you and your children. My only advice is listen to him and don't be afraid to ask him any question, he will give you the best answer for the long haul, to protect you throughout the case. He gives advice based on today, tomorrow, and the future. It 's important to work with an attorney that knows you can be dealing with a potential ex for years.

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."
