I Cannot Recommend Amanda Highly Enough May 21, 2026

★★★★★ I cannot recommend Amanda Roberts highly enough. When no other attorney was willing to truly take on my case, Amanda stepped in and believed in me from the very beginning. I had spoken with multiple lawyers who told me we were going to lose custody and that the case would end up costing over $50,000. Amanda was the first person who gave me real hope and confidence during one of the most stressful times of my life. The results spoke for themselves. Amanda walked into my trial fully prepared, and within just one session with the judge, the TPO against me was denied and my ex was reprimanded by the judge in court. Watching how confidently and professionally Amanda handled everything immediately showed me I had made the right decision hiring her. Throughout the entire process, she was responsive, knowledgeable, compassionate, and aggressive when it mattered most. She fought hard for me and my family while always keeping me informed every step of the way. What also stood out to me was how reasonable and fair her pricing was. After hearing outrageous estimates from other attorneys, Amanda handled my case at a very reasonable cost and even provided me with a discount, which I truly appreciated during such a difficult time. If you need an attorney who will genuinely fight for you when others will not, I strongly recommend Amanda Roberts. I will always be grateful for everything she did for me and my family.

I Needed an Attorney Who Made Me Feel Heard Apr 16, 2026

I came to Amanda with Roberts Stoffel after my first custody attorney charged me an insane amount of money to get me through trial. I was dealing with an appeal, no legal divorce in sight, and a highly litigious coparent. I needed an attorney who made me feel heard, and who was willing to explain things to me and complete and maintain my divorce and custody situation. Although we haven't completed the entire process yet, Amanda and her team have made me feel comfortable that we've taken the right steps through the process so far.

Outstanding Job on Our Long Custody Case Mar 11, 2026

Mel Grimes worked with our family for over 7 years during a complicated and long-running custody case. Throughout those years, Mel was consistently thoughtful, prepared, and steady in the way he handled the case. I appreciated his ability to keep everything grounded and focused when situations became tense or overwhelming. He approached each stage of the case with patience and a clear plan, and it was obvious he understood every detail of the record. Over time he handled many motions and hearings and built a strong legal foundation for the case. When Mel needed to take leave, Amanda Roberts stepped in and continued the work seamlessly. Taking over a case with such a long history is a challenge, but she quickly became fully familiar with the issues and helped move things forward. Amanda ultimately handled the appeal, and she did an outstanding job. The level of preparation and organization required for an appeal is significant, and her work resulted in the appellate court affirming the ruling in our favor. After years of litigation, that decision brought a tremendous sense of relief and stability for our family. We are very thankful for the professionalism, dedication, and care both Mel and Amanda showed throughout this process. I would confidently recommend them to anyone looking for experienced and reliable family law attorneys.

Mel Grimes had been my attorney for almost 8 years. I hired him during a very hard custody case about my daughter. From the beginning, he treated my case like it truly mattered. He was always prepared, calm, and focused on what was best for my child. Family court can be very stressful and emotional. Many times I felt overwhelmed, but Mel always helped me stay focused. He explained things clearly and made sure we were making the right decisions for the long term. He worked very hard and always knew the details of the case. Over the years, he handled dozens of motions and hearings. He never gave up and he never took shortcuts. Mel built a strong case step by step. When our case later went to appeal and we won, I know that result was possible because of the strong work Mel did for many years. The record he built made a huge difference. Mel protected my relationship with my daughter and helped bring stability to our lives. My family and I will always be grateful for what he did for my family.
