Mrs. Rhodes and Tod have been the best legal team I could have possibly ever had. They had impacted my life for not just me but for my children as well. I loved that they didn’t come with an aggressive approach but rather one that was more about being calm and knowing what was right and wrong legally. They helped open my eyes to more than just let’s fight but rather let’s take a step back and help me as a mother along the way. They listened to my rants and also seen me in tears but never did they negatively come at me about how I felt nor what was ALWAYS in the BEST INTEREST for my children and the opposing party. Till this day I have remained forever thankful for the services they have done for us. I will ALWAYS HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ms. Rhodes and her team for they have taken the whole new level of law into a respect that I never had before them. They are honest and caring even if you are in the wrong they will tell you but they will also help guide you to handle it in a better way. I never had to question who’s side they were on and never did I have to wait years for paperwork. The communication level was more than any other lawyers I have had before. So with this I highly recommend hiring Ms. Rhodes and her legal team! It is worth every penny and I would do it all over again if necessary. Thank you for all you all have done. I’m eternally grateful. Mrs....
Read moreThe intake guy, name unrecalled, contacted me in the evening to gather information about the legal separation I am seeking. He was terrible! He asked very inappropriate questions such as how was I able to pay off my house, where did I get the money, where did I keep my money, why did I give my spouse a lump sum of money and what is he going to do with it? Also, he basically told me our assets could not be separated how we wanted, even if we agreed and that everything, to include debts had to be split 50/50 no matter what! That’s ridiculous! My spouse and I can agree to whatever we want! He told me I needed to just get a divorce and insinuated “because I’m just going to get screwed over by my spouse if I don’t”, not exact words but same meaning. He talked to me like an idiot child, he was condescending, combative, argumentative, he did not listen and continuously talked over me. He was acting like a sleazy, shady car salesman. After 45 minutes of him badgering me, I told him I needed to think things over. He said he needed my address before we hung up, hmmmm, why? I said no and he said have a nice evening and hung up! I’m not sure how the attorneys are but this guy is not an asset to their practice! Found an attorney the next day and he did not need to know any of those details, and he will legally split our assets...
Read moreThree years ago I thought I was never going to see the end to the nightmare that started with my son's father. He was trying to take full custody of my son and used some very cruel tactics to try to do so by accusing me of being an abusive parent. When this happened, I consulted with friends and family about attorneys and one of them strongly recommended Melanie Rhodes. When I met with her in Albuquerque (I am from Las Cruces) for the first time, I knew she was the one that would help me through all this mess. Since day 1, I felt hers and her husband/assistant Todd's sincerity and heartfelt connection with my case. She treated me more like a friend than a client and was wonderful in court. She had all the knowledge and experience that I was looking for and, because of her, we were able to resolve my case and she was key in setting up an effective parenting plan. I thank Melanie for everything she did for me and feel safe having her on my side for any future legal needs I may have. I would STRONGLY recommend Melanie Rhodes (And Justice Law) to anyone in need of amazing legal...
