Who Is the Best Salt Lake City Divorce Attorney?

Marco Brown

When people search on the internet for divorce and family law attorneys, they often type in something like “best salt lake divorce attorney” or “best salt lake city family law attorney.”

The results that pop up on Google usually pop up because a page on a website contains the words “best” “salt lake” “divorce” and “attorney” in close proximity.

So, you’re not really getting an assessment of who is the best attorney at all. What you’re getting is an attorney who wrote the phrase “best salt lake city divorce attorney” on his or her webpage.

So, how do you determine who is the best divorce or family law attorney in Salt Lake?

The answer to this question is pretty personal and depends on some different factors.

Let me address a few as I see them.

Factors

  1. Fit.

What I mean by fit is how you and your attorney get along.

You can have the most brilliant divorce attorney in the world (and there are some amazingly brilliant attorneys), but if you can’t stand to be in the same room with him or she, all that brilliance won’t get you good results.

Find someone you get along with and with whom you feel comfortable working.

  1. Exclusive focus on your area of need — divorce.

If you have an intellectual property issue, don’t hire a divorce attorney. Likewise, if you have a family law issue, don’t hire someone who does ten family law cases per year.

If you hire a part-time divorce attorney, you’ll get part-time results.

Find a full-time divorce and family law attorney.

  1. Online reviews.

Online reviews are helpful (but not sufficient) in choosing an attorney.

If you approach them correctly, they can help guide you to attorneys who provide good customer service. And good customer service is not the norm among attorneys, unfortunately. (For help evaluating online reviews, read here.)

  1. Reputation with colleagues and the courts.

If an attorney is disliked by his or her colleagues and the courts, then you will have an uphill climb in your case.

It will be harder to negotiate, and the courts are less likely to accept arguments from an attorney with a bad reputation.

  1. Price.

Price is always a consideration. If an attorney charges more than you could possibly afford, then it won’t do you much good to hire that attorney.

This said, hiring an attorney who way undercharges for legal services is an indication that attorney is wildly inexperienced.

In the end, realize legal services are an investment in your future and your family’s future. Plan accordingly, and find a good attorney who will charge fairly.

  1. Feel.

Feel is a bit like fit. You have to feel comfortable with your attorney.

You have to feel that your attorney is knowledgeable and will represent you with respect in and out of the courtroom.

So, Who Is the Best Salt Lake City Divorce Attorney?

Considering all of this, who is the best Salt Lake City divorce attorney?

The answer is: it depends on you.

It depends on your situation and who you feel you fit with best. Google can’t make this decision for you. You have to do the research and make the determination for you.

There are no shortcuts in hiring a good divorce attorney.

You get what you pay for, and the Brown Family team is worth every penny. We truly appreciated their team-based approach, making sure that every detail of our case was thoughtfully handled. They were incredibly easy to work with, kept us informed throughout the process, and made sure no question ever went unanswered. By far the best family attorneys I’ve worked with, and the only ones I’ll call if I ever need legal help again.
Response from the owner:Chris, thank you. Glad we were able to guide you through your process.
Andrew made the whole process smooth and quick! Kept me updated on any changes, and followed up with me constantly!

David Handy is my attorney and he is excellent. He understands my cases and is well informed to defend my needs and the needs of my kids. He is supportive and compassionate. Telling me how things are and what to expect. He does very well with my high conflict cases (protective order and divorce). I highly recommend him and the Brown Family Law firm. Everyone I have talked to is helpful. Especially Conor Schetzel who is currently the paralegal on my cases.
Response from the owner:Suzanne, thank you and glad David has taken care of you.

Highly recommend Brown Family Law. Life is hard, divorce is harder, and Andrew Christensen is your guy to help you through to the other side.
Response from the owner:Mike, thank you for the kind words and the referrals.
When you’re going through a tough time and need legal help, this firm isn’t just a one-person operation. It’s a team of attorneys who work together to support you every step of the way. So you’re not just getting a lawyer, you’re getting a legal team behind you.

Navigating the legal system was a steep learning curve for me, and my situation was fairly complex. What stood out about this law firm was the way multiple attorneys collaborated to address my case. It wasn’t just one person working in isolation, but a team supporting each other to find the best path forward. That kind of collective effort is a real strength, especially in hard out complex situations like mine.

There was one issue I felt should have had a different outcome with the court. When I brought it up, the team responded in a very professional and respectful manner, which I truly appreciated. It came to my understanding that the legal system sometimes works in a way that is distant than I thought. This was presented to me in a way that someone outside of the legal system could understand.

In my experience, this firm takes the time to not only assist you, but also help you understand why things are happening. That made a big difference for me, and it’s something that really sets them apart.
Response from the owner:David, thank you for our conversation and taking the time to leave this review.
