Custody & Divorces

Mr. Reid did an amazing job on my divorce and custody case. Never made it into the courthouse. Won my case!!. If you're ready to battle he is the one that will fight for you.

Excellent trial attorney

I hired Robert after an initial phone consultation. He is a straight shooter and knows family law. He has fought and won 3 cases for me in an 18-month time period. He is an excellent trial attorney and thoroughly reviews discovery documentation. After the case he continued to fight for me by sending... emails and communicating with the OAG. He listened to me. He will prepare you trial, if you need it.

Extremely satisfied!!

After a difficult divorce case with a (different) lawyer that disappointed me, I wanted so much better when I had to go back to try to get full custody. As a single Dad, the odds were stacked against me getting full custody. I knew I had to hire the Best. I needed a lawyer with experience who woul...d doggedly go after the best outcome for my daughter and I. Reid was professional and knew exactly how to tackle my case. He made me feel comfortable and confident that I would get the outcome I needed to secure the well being of my daughter. Reid was honest and dependable and well known in the courts. He was able to settle my case in mediation so I was able to save court costs. I spoke to many lawyers before choosing Reid, and I don't think anyone could have matched his skill and expertise. I am beyond grateful for what he did for me and my daughter. I got full custody and my daughter is safe and thriving. His guidance was life-changing and I cannot recommend him enough!

Great Attorney for Divorcing a Narcissist

Reid was great in listening to the whole complicated situation with my divorce, finding a plan forward, and executing. During trial for orders, he asked the right questions to myself and my ex to show the truth of the situation, and got favorable results for what I was fighting for. He is no nonsense... and gives you truthful expectations for what is worth fighting for and how best to prove the truth in court.

The best of the best!

Reid is a damn good lawyer. He helped me with my case and won me full custody of my daughter. Very knowledgeable in family law and will help you with your case. In my opinion the best money can buy! I mean that.
