“My goal in every case is to obtain the best results for you that I can. Sometimes trial is the only option, but mediation and negotiation have their place. It is always better to come up with an agreement you can live with than to be told by the Judge that ‘you’re going to have to live with this.’ My role as your attorney is to advise you of your options and then carry out your direction, whether that be trial or settlement.”
As a veteran courtroom litigator with 14 years of dedicated experience, Robert Newell has handled all types of complex family law matters. His extensive portfolio includes Divorce, Child Custody, Adoption, Relocation, and Prenuptial Agreements. While he primarily practices in Maricopa County, Robert’s trusted representation has reached across ten different Arizona counties. He is uniquely qualified and deeply familiar with the complex, high-stakes intersection of family law and the criminal charges that frequently accompany it—fair or not. Whether you have been served with divorce papers, accused of domestic violence, or both, Robert is uniquely prepared to protect your family, finances, and future.
Over the last 14 years, he has served as lead counsel in hundreds of family law cases, bringing a steady hand and sharp strategic insight to deeply emotional legal battles. He especially enjoys being able to help reunite children with their parents and guide families toward stable new chapters.
Robert comes from a military family. Though he was born in Texas, his earliest memories are from when his family was stationed in West Germany. After his father was honorably discharged from the U.S. Army, his family settled in California. He attended university and law school in Utah, spent two years on a church mission in Michigan, and completed two prestigious internships in Washington, D.C., with the U.S. Senate and the Department of Justice. In 2010, Robert and his family settled in Phoenix, which they proudly call home.
The best thing Robert got out of law school was his wife, Natalie, who is also an attorney. They met on the first day of law school at Brigham Young University and have been inseparable ever since. Robert is the proud father of two children, a boy and a girl. In his leisure time, he enjoys reading novels, watching college football, volunteers in a community family history library, and staying active in his church and community.
