Relationship: Co-worker
I endorse this lawyer.
Hugo Johnson, Family Attorney on May 15, 2018

Ms. Rogers is an exceptional representation of a family law litigator, and I have appeared before her many times on the bench. She is courteous to every litigant, reads all materials, and poses material questions in cases before her, showing that she reads everything and is invested in making an equitable decision. Her presentation on the bench is proof of her dedication to her clients in a private capacity. I fully endorse this lawyer.
Amir John Showrai, Divorce and separation Attorney on Dec 7, 2014
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I have had two cases with Ms. Rogers acting as an opposing counsel (one of which is still ongoing) and I have mediated cases where I was the mediator and she representing one of the litigants. In those capacities I have been able to see how she works with her clients up close and personally. She is very intelligent, diligent, hard working, very aggressive when called for, and just as importantly, she knows when to back down in her own client's best interest, which is not always the case these days. Nuance is sometimes a lost art in family law. If I were not able to handle a case, she is someone I would refer a potential client to, and that tells you all you need to know about my unqualified recommendation.
Michelle Hull, Family Attorney on Jul 11, 2014
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I highly endorse this lawyer. She is not only a wonderful litigator but also a an amazing person. She works hard for her clients and rarely takes an intransigent stance. She is very easy to work with and has a great amount of knowledge to share with other lawyers and her clients! I would hire Melissa in a heart beat if I had a family law issue.
Top-notch attorney. Highly respected in the legal community.
Brita Long, Family Attorney on Jan 9, 2014
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I endorse this lawyer. We met when we were opposing counsel on a highly contentious case. Her calm and reasonable demeanor time after time prevented the case from going nuclear which would have hurt the child in the case. She knows the law, is reasonable, and unflappable. Any client of hers will be well served.
Brent Bohan, Family Attorney on Nov 15, 2013

Melissa Rogers is an outstanding family law attorney. Aside from being extremely knowledgeable about the law and a zealous advocate, her real strength lies in the compassion and understanding she has for her clients. In a short amount of time Melissa has built a stellar reputation in the family law community. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, compassionate, zealous family law attorney.
Erica Santos, Family Attorney on Oct 25, 2013
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I have been opposing counsel with Melissa on three different cases. Melissa is a pleasure to work with. She is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of family law and uses that knowledge effectively when representing her clients. Melissa is able to vigorously represent her clients while still having a professional and friendly relationship with her opposing counsel. This is an important trait in a lawyer as lawyers that make it personal are costly and ultimately ineffective. Melissa is someone I would highly recommend.
Michael Hanis, Family Attorney on Jan 2, 2012
Relationship: Supervised lawyer
I endorse this lawyer. We were very pleased to be able to add Melissa to our group of fine lawyers. She limits her practice to Family Law. We have received many excellent reviews for the work of Melissa and her superb Assistant, Lisa. If you find yourself in need of a Family Law attorney, whether for dissolution of marriage, civil union, child support collection or modification, or pre-nuptial matters, I urge you to contact Melissa.

Melissa is practical. She works hard to meet the needs of her clients and to find solutions that allow them to work through one of life's more difficult problem.
Erik Olsen, Family Attorney on Oct 14, 2011
Relationship: Co-worker
Melissa is a tremendous resource in the area of family law. However, not only is she knowledgeable, but she works very diligently for her clients.
