Best child custody attorney

Matt Eilerts is hands down the best attorney I could have asked for during my custody case. From the very beginning, he was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly understanding and realistic. He never sugarcoated anything or “sold me a dream”. Instead, he gave me honest, straigh...tforward guidance that helped me stay grounded and informed throughout the entire process. What made Matt stand out even more was his ability to relate on a personal level. He wasn’t just an attorney going through the motions — he brought empathy and even referenced his own life experiences with custody, which made me feel seen and understood. That kind of relatability is rare and made a huge difference in helping me feel supported and not alone. Matt’s communication was excellent, and his calm, steady presence gave me real peace of mind during an incredibly emotional time. Thanks to his hard work, I walked away with a resolution I feel good about — one that truly supports my child’s best interests. If you’re looking for a family law attorney who is honest, down-to-earth, and fully committed to your case, I highly recommend Matt Eilerts and his Associates for all your family needs.

Don't Hire this Attorney

Mat Eilerts is the last attorney I would recommend. He represented me in my custody dispute and refused to defend me. Any task I requested of him, he refused to do it, file a motion, he'd simply say, "no". Twice when I was in meetings with him he literally held his head in his hand with his elbows pr...opped on the table and would pull his hair and pout, like a child having a temper tantrum. His conduct was shocking. He won't challenge anyone in his representation of you. If he was the last attorney on earth, I would have only one suggestion,. Run.
