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.

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.
