Family Law Services in Scottsdale

At Brown Family Law, we help Scottsdale families navigate the full range of family law issues, including:

  • Divorce – Guiding clients through contested, uncontested, and complex divorces.
  • Child Custody – Creating parenting plans that prioritize children’s best interests.
  • Child Support – Ensuring orders are fair and accurate under Arizona law.

Local Trust Cues: Scottsdale

Divorce and custody cases for Scottsdale residents are generally handled through the Maricopa County Superior Court. With its large caseload, cases in this court benefit from attorneys who understand both the divorce system and the expectations of local judges.

Scottsdale families also face unique lifestyle and financial considerations — from property division involving homes in neighborhoods like Old Town, McCormick Ranch, and North Scottsdale, to balancing professional obligations with parenting time. Having an attorney who understands both the law and the local community can make the process smoother.

The Divorce Process in Scottsdale

Most divorces in Maricopa County follow similar steps:

  • Petition for Dissolution – One spouse files to begin the process.
  • Service of Papers – The other spouse is formally notified.
  • Temporary Orders – Courts may issue orders on custody, support, or property while the case is pending.
  • Disclosure & Discovery – Both spouses exchange financial information and documents.
  • Mediation & Settlement – Courts encourage parents to resolve issues outside of trial when possible.
  • Trial (if necessary) – If no agreement is reached, a judge makes final decisions.
  • Final Decree of Dissolution – The divorce is finalized.

Brown Family Law supports Scottsdale clients at each step, ensuring their rights and futures are protected.

Based on 1025 reviews
I rarely ever leave a review but my divorce attorney, Nathaniel Garrabrandt, his paralegal and the entire Brown Family Law were great to work with. I received regular communication from Nathaniel and his staff throughout the process. Nathaniel was highly recommended to me and now I know why. I’m very grateful for Nathaniel and the staff at Brown Family Law. It was one of the most difficult times of my life and working with them made it a little better.
Brown Family Law have been wonderful to work with. Their professionalism, knowledge and empathy were instrumental in the successful resolution of a very difficult situation. If we ever had need of an attorney with their skill set we would not hesitate to call on them again.
Absolutely stand out humans leading me through one of the most stressful and disorienting events of my life. I got what I needed and with my soul intact. Great insights, compassion and I feel having the support and capabilities of Nick to be instrumental to my coming out the other side with optimism! Cheers, Brown Family Law!
I cannot express how grateful I am for the way Nathaniel and the team at Brown Family Law handled my divorce case. Their level of professionalism and honesty is truly exceptional—qualities that used to be standard but, unfortunately, feel increasingly rare today. From start to finish, they were supportive, transparent, and genuinely committed to helping me navigate an incredibly difficult time. I felt heard, respected, and well-represented every step of the way. I highly recommend Brown Family Law to anyone seeking a trustworthy and skilled legal team.

Sincerely

William Tovar,
