When contemplating the end of the marriage, it's important to proceed in a way that minimizes the negative impacts on your children, your finances, your work, and yourself. The highly emotional event of divorce or separation demands that you have someone looking out for your best interests who can look both objectively and subjectively at the facts of your case, and help you to make decisions about how to move forward.
A common misunderstanding in divorce is that child support levels are decided by a simple formula, so there is little to discuss. It's true that Arizona family courts follow guidelines to determine the amount of child support to be paid. These guidelines seek to understand how much the parents would have spent on the child, had they not divorced, or if they were residing together to raise the child.
If you waited a lifetime for your choice to marry the person you love most, you likely joined in the celebration across the country after Justice Kennedy's opinion in Obergefell v. Hodges granting same-sex partners across the country the right to marry. You may now wonder how far those rights extend.
When a married couple has a child, the law assumes the mother's husband is the father of the child. However, things become more complicated when a child is born to an unwed couple. While the mother is assumed to be the legal custodian, the father must prove his paternity unless both parents agree that he is the father.

Andy was wonderful to work with. He walked me through my divorce and custody matter with great professionalism. Always listened to my needs and managed my expectations with respect. I am completely satisfied with the outcomee of my situation especially considering the thight deadline I was on to move out of state. He managed costs well and thought of everything in my MSA. We have had a couple disputes since our settlement and were able to refer back to the MSA and found that the scenario was already addressed. This has saved us already from having to go back to court. Well worth the investment

I was in complete disarray when I reached out to Ms. Palfreyman and the team at RPM Law. I won’t get into the specifics, but her and her team worked tirelessly on my behalf; through the pandemic and through the many hurdles that is the judicial system.
Today I am happy to say that everything has worked out for the best, and I will always speak of RPM Law in the highest regards; and my family and I have Ms. Julia and everyone at RPM Law to thank!

It’s a scary and intimidating moment when you find yourself needing an attorney. I’am so thankful that I decided to hire Julia. Not only was she very professional and and knowledgeable in family law. But she consistently showed care and dedication to my very difficult case. Always answering every question I had promptly responding to emails and phone calls. I recommend this law firm to anyone who is looking for effective work and dedication. Hopefully I don’t need an attorney again, but if I do I’ll be hiring Julia again!! My family and I thank you so much for everything you’ve done!

My husband and I hired RPM Law, with the opportunity to work with Julia and Brian on our relocation case. Hiring Julia was the best decision that we made during a very stressful and uncertain time, Julia is incredibly knowledgeable, caring and never once (through our almost 7 month case) made us feel like anything less than a priority. Her and Brian always were quick to reply to emails, jump on the phone to answer questions and always kept us in the loop with the current status/game plan. The billing team at RPM is very kind and professional. If you are looking to hire an incredible team that will

If you are getting divorced and looking for a good lawyer scroll right over these guys. This was the law firm I used. Biggest thing is that my ex got an extra $30K from me that I didn't even know I agreed to. This was after the divorce was finalized and my savings plan was being divided. In my divorce decree we agreed to split the saving in half. After that, during the QDRO is when these guys let me down. I had no idea what I agreed to and they didn't tell me. Incompetent lawyers. Before this, they would take days to respond to my emails and then only answer one or two questions in that email when

From the moment that I stepped into RPM Law’s office for a first consult, I knew that I had found a team that would fight hard for securing my interests, while maintaining their professionalism even when the opposing party sank low with their behaviors. At the end, I was able to walk away knowing that I had made good choices throughout the process,… thanks to having had all the options presented to me with a realistic view of the possible outcomes.

My experience with Andrew P. Meshel and this lawful was HORRIBLE, they are extremely UNPROFESSIONAL and the receptionist is incredibly RUDE. I DO NOT recommend anyone to come here.
They are UNETHICAL and trick you into extending your time by bringing unsolicited people into the conversation.
I didn't make appointments with the additional people they kept bringing in the room, they never got a consent from me or my sister to do so, and they don't tell you when you have reached your 1 hour limit and then they charge you an additional hour if you go a minute over.

Ms. Cafasso remembered every piece of over 6,000 pages of evidence. She put together the “truth” from evidence she personally read and organized, condensed, and made it easy to understand. I believe Ms. Cafasso and Andy Meshel truly worked hard and diligently to put together a truthful and accurate case in which the evidence spoke for itself… against my ex’s allegations. Month after month I was treated so respectfully that I regained my self-respect and confidence and could finally advocated effectively; all because Ms. Cafasso took the time and energy to help me fully

I would highly recommend Matt and his staff. Being several states away from my daughter who was faced with a divorce in Arizona, we were so blessed to get a referral to Matt's firm. From the initial consultation to the final hearing, Matt helped her navigate through the process and get a fair settlement. Matt is an awesome attorney and advocate for his clients, we could not have gone through this life changing experience without him. Thank you to everyone at RPM Law for your expertise and compassion!

All of the lawyers and staff were outstanding. I always felt their primary concern was my well being and the best outcome possible; given the constraints of the law and courts. My attorney was clear on the facts and what were the breath of outcomes. I always knew I was backed up by the other attorneys and staff at RPM Law. In several instances, the firm went beyond their fiduciary responsibilities to assist. I have recommended RPM Law to several people. Because of this, it was easy to get my life back after the case was finished.

I had the pleasure of working with both Matt and Randy in a separation and custody case involving two children as a newly single and unmarried mom. I was referred to RPM Law by a friend and could not have been in better hands. I started out alone and trying to figure out the legal landscape was tumultuous and overwhelming. I was weighed down with… my own emotions and those of others coming from all sides. As soon as I consulted with Randy I knew they were exactly what I needed, and before I realized it, the stress and fear and uncertainty diminished. I knew I was in qualified, knowledgeable

If you have to seek an attorney, this is the one! We are out of state and needed someone we could trust to handle our case in Arizona. We did a lot of searching and made dozens of phone calls before selecting a firm. After our first interaction with RPM we knew we had finally found our attorney. We are so impressed with the professionalism and expertise of this firm. Matt Randle was straight up with us, he was honest from our first conversation to the day our case closed. Matt's staff is very prompt and efficient. Legal issues are always unsettling, having an attorney that is honest and upfront

I feel that my attorney, Matt Randle, with RPM Law did an absolute outstanding job with my divorce case. He was very considerate of my feelings and wishes yet he was a strong advocate in the court room in my defense. If you or anyone you know is facing a divorce, I would highly recommend using RPM Law. They are reputable and you will be happy with the results they obtain for you.

After deciding to divorce my spouse after 28 years was difficult to say the least. It was a life changing decision. I came into Matt's office not knowing what to expect. He provided me with words of encouragement and honest guidance. There were no surprises, which I appreciated even when the news wasn't as positive as it could have been. I was… happy with the quick response from Matt and his staff when I needed advice or direction. I was referred to RPM Law from a trusted friend who had used their team for similar services. I would happily recommend the RPM Law team. No nonsense results

Divorce is never a good thing. However, serving in the Military and enduring the additional stress of divorce can be devastating to the Military member’s career if not done right. Matthew Randle, does it right. Matt and his staff were very informative and concerned for the duration of my case. Always willing to listen to my concerns and issues,… and provide common sense advise to an already complicated process. Due to Matt’s attention to detail and knowledge of family law, he has allowed this USAF MSgt, with combat connected PTSD, to keep custody of my children, and established

Scheduled a consult with this firm, was 20 minutes late. Thank god it was just a phone consult. Receptionist was rude and didn't seem to value my time. No apology was given for the tardiness. Told her that i was going to look elsewhere and she said ok and hung up.
Maybe they don't care about clients for traffic tickets. If i had been given an apology or felt like they actually cared, i would have continued with them.
Let's see if they respond to this review.

RPM is by far the best you can get. They helped get me out of a toxic marriage and situation and were so nice and helpful. Matt Randle and Jon made everything so easy and painless for me along the way, they didn't make me feel rushed or uncomfortable at all. When it came time to file the response they helped me through the whole thing and then did all the hard work for me. They fought hard for me at the spousal maintenance hearing and got me enough to where I can finally get out of my toxic home and back on my feet again.
I'll recommend them to anyone who needs any sort of legal help

I made an appointment with Matt all ready to sign the papers to hire him to be my lawyer and he wouldn't let me. Why, you ask? Because he told me I could simply take care of it on my own and save thousands of dollars. Amazing, right? All the lawyers there are veterans or they have veteran family members so integrity still means something to them. I was actually tearing up because I couldn't believe how honest he was with me and because he saved me so much money; especially over the holidays.
