Family Law Center for Men

I came to the Family Law Center for Men during one of the hardest periods of my life. My son had been taken from our home without warning, and I was facing a legal battle I did not know how to navigate alone. From the first call, Mitch, Rhonda, and Melissa treated me like a person not just a case number. Melissa worked tirelessly on my case drafting motions, negotiating terms, attending hearings, and keeping me informed every step of the way. When things got complicated, she adapted quickly and fought hard for the best outcome possible. Rhonda and Mitch went above and beyond as well, showing genuine compassion at every turn. That kind of character is rare in any profession. If you are a father going through a custody or any legal matter in Alaska and feel like the system is not on your side call this firm. They will fight for you 100%.

I spoke with Mitch.... what a great guy. Very honest which is a trait that I feel is most important in life. Especially when dealing with lawyers and attorneys. Mitch could have suggested a course of action and proceeded to make money from my situation. Instead he suggested I hold off for a little while, and come back when needed. Which I fully intend to do. This is definitely the place to come as a man. Direct & straight talking. Thanks you Mitch for your support and helpful advice. I will be back when the time is right.

Rhonda Butterfield was the driving force behind gaining equal custody. Military member needed to transfer the case via the UCCJEA, she worked closely with me to empower an out of state attorney resulting in the case being moved to Alaska. Rhonda then gave clear and sound advice on how to proceed thanks to her many decades of focused Family Law work aiding fathers. We met as needed to discuss each step along the way. She insisted on clear factual information and personalized affidavits while not relying on AI tech, resulting in genuine documents being presented. Rhonda was patient while being available and was a calming presence when it felt difficult leading up to and during the multiple day hearing. This was key to keeping focused. She never waivered or changed course. She did not shy away from the fight in the court room. Do not be fooled by her friendly grandmother demeaner, she is a concise and aggressive communicator in court. She has no issues establishing foundation leading to exhibits turning to evidence. . Rhonda is a steadfast professional who should be at the top of the list for solving high-conflict custody cases.
