Top Divorce Attorneys in Phoenix (And How to Choose One)

Divorce is one of the hardest challenges a family can face. The right attorney can make a world of difference — offering clarity, compassion, and strength during one of life’s most overwhelming seasons. At Brown Family Law, we believe every client deserves guidance that protects not just their legal rights, but their children, finances, and future.

For families in Phoenix, choosing the best divorce attorney is about more than credentials — it’s about finding someone who listens, communicates, and stands firmly by your side.

What Makes a Great Divorce Attorney?

Not all divorce lawyers are the same. The best divorce attorneys in Phoenix share common qualities that help clients feel supported and confident throughout the process.

  • Compassionate Listening – A great attorney takes time to understand your goals and concerns.
  • Clear Communication – Legal issues are complex. You need an advocate who explains them in plain English.
  • Strong Negotiation Skills – Many cases are resolved through settlement or mediation, not trial.
  • Courtroom Experience – When trial is unavoidable, you want a lawyer with the skills to advocate in front of a judge.
  • Local Knowledge – Attorneys familiar with the Maricopa County Superior Court and Phoenix-area family judges understand how cases are handled locally.

Local Trust Cues: Phoenix Family Law

Most divorce and custody cases in Phoenix are handled through the Maricopa County Superior Court, located downtown. With its size and heavy caseload, Phoenix family court can feel intimidating. Having an attorney who understands the system — from judges’ expectations to filing procedures — helps reduce stress and improve outcomes.

Families across Phoenix also deal with practical concerns like housing in neighborhoods such as Arcadia, Roosevelt Row, and North Mountain, or balancing work while navigating custody schedules across city schools. At Brown Family Law, we never lose sight of the real-life impact of family law cases.

How to Choose the Right Divorce Attorney for You

Every family is different. When interviewing Phoenix divorce attorneys, consider asking:

  • How do you approach communication with clients?
  • Do you encourage mediation before going to trial?
  • What experience do you have with cases in Maricopa County Superior Court?
  • How will you help me protect my children during this process?
  • What is your philosophy on settlement vs. litigation?

The answers to these questions can help you find a lawyer who fits your values and priorities.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Navigating a divorce is never easy, and I am so grateful to have had the support of attorney Nathaniel Garrabrandt and paralegal Carren Leavitt. From start to finish, they were responsive, professional, and compassionate. I really appreciated the weekly check-in Every phone call and email was answered promptly. There were moments when I needed immediate help with custody issues and protection—Nathaniel handled those situations with calm expertise and gave me the reassurance I needed during such a stressful and uncertain time.

Divorce can feel overwhelming, but having strong legal guidance made all the difference. Nathaniel and Carren provided not only the legal knowledge but also the steady support that helped me feel protected and confident moving forward. I couldn’t recommend Briwn Family Law more highly to anyone needing a reliable and caring legal team!
David Handy and his team were fantastic in helping me navigate custody time with my daughter. He gave the me reassurance and encouragement I needed with each step and I couldn't be more grateful to him! Thanks David! And to his team Candace & Brooklyn for being very helpful in keeping constant communication open. I enjoyed working with everyone!
I had a great experience. Amazing guidance and direction to best help me and my situation.
This has honestly been a first-class experience! I've gotten to work with many attorneys throughout my life and none have been as attentive as, Clay Randle has been.
Daniel and Carren were great to work with. They took time to help me understand the process and get through a difficult time. When I had questions they were quick to respond and really listened to my concerns.
Glad Jason was fired. Clay can handle any case like a champ. Thank you brown family law.
Kayelise was the easiest to talk to. She addressed all my questions regarding my divorce and has so much empathy for those she talks to. I can’t thank her enough for her guidance in my divorce and answering all my questions.
I have had the privilege of working alongside Nate Garrabrandt through our BNI group and hearing him share valuable insights every week about the divorce process. Even though I haven’t personally needed the services of Brown Family Law, I can confidently say that Nate is extremely knowledgeable, well-educated, and passionate about helping his clients navigate such a challenging time. His professionalism and expertise stand out, and I would not hesitate to recommend him and his firm to anyone in need of a skilled divorce attorney.
