Ms. Reichert was an absolutely amazing attorney from start to finish. I will preface this by saying I am an active duty soldier and I had no time back in the U.S. My son was born overseas, and really had no established "home." My ex-wife took my son and ran off to another state creating a smorgasbord of jurisdictional issues.When she took me on she had her hands full. I had gone through two other attorneys already in less than a year. And was paying two other attorneys in a separate state. Out of the two I had in Indiana, I lost one due to health issues and the other had actually signed some documents (without my consent) that relinquished my custody to my son. We were completely unaware of this until we actually stepped in the courtroom. She handled this issue with grace and agility without ever losing a beat. (There's nothing like getting a bomb like that dropped on you in the middle of a hearing.) She consulted me on how to deal with this issue and report the other attorney. She also was able to sway the judge to dismiss the document as evidence. I will never forget that. I eventually settled out of court with my ex-wife. During this process, my ex was arguing semantics and being very disagreeable, this cause a total of about 5 drafts on Ms. Reichert's end. She was patient and kind during the whole grueling process. By the time all was said and done, I recieved about double the usual parenting time that Indiana would have permitted in my situation. I feel like I may just have a chance to make an impact in my son's life and have a lasting relationship with him. For that I am eternally grateful and would recommend this attorney to anyone going through a divorce.

Ms. Reichert represented my wife and I in a prolonged civil dispute and we found her to be well prepared, knowledgeable about the law, and a calming presence. We eventually won every aspect of the case, including damages. I recommend Ms. Reichert highly.

Melanie was very helpful and assertive when I needed her too. She was very quick to respond and kept me in the loop on what was happening!

I have worked with Melanie for years on my case. She has been excellent representing my situation and keeping me in the loop along the way. My expectations have always been met with her guidance and realistic outcome. I would highly recommend her advice and services.

Finding the right attorney for a divorce case can be difficult. I made the mistake and hired an attorney by referral in the beginning and it costed me greatly on my Provisional Order. My case was difficult and my ex was a narcissist. We also had a child involved in a custody battle. Melanie was my second attorney who had to clean up the mess. I specifically searched for an attorney experienced in psychological cases and that is how I found Melanie. She created a dream team for me, and with my case being in Boone County, she brought on Jennifer Hostetter to assist. Melanie is not someone you want on the other side of your case. She is fierce, direct, to the point, and will tell you like it is. I respect her greatly for that. I had to have a custody evaluation done, and she knew the best in the business to help me show the court the flaws of my ex. She helped groom me, prep me, and at times had to reprimand me to prepare me for my case. Her confidence shines and she is highly detailed. She knows her law and how to work with narcissists which are not your normal divorce case. In court, she is a black widow, she knows how to make the other side, in a professional way, look like an idiot. While her services are not the highest or the cheapest, they are fair and worth every penny. She told me ways in which I could help keep my fees lower. She was punctual and I never had to track her down. I know she will miss my multiple emails daily, but she took wonderful care of me. In the end, the judge awarded me everything I wanted and we even received more custody than what the evaluation recommended. I highly recommend her.

I loved working with Melanie, she was exactly what I needed as the opposing parent was difficult to work with. Melanie had the best interest of my child as well as myself. I wouldn't go to anyone else and am pleased to have her on my side. Ms Reichert was motivated to mediate, motivated to win while maintain integrity for her client (myself) and her client's family.

I met Melanie is a desperate need of a good family law attourney, and after more than a year now as her client I have the best that can be had. I have a very hard case with a lot of hidden lies that Melanie has been able to work so hard and show the courts. It's rare for a father to get custody of a 4 yr old boy but with Melanie's hard honest work and dedication to not only her job but clients she gets things done. She is very smart, knows the law and will not back at all. I am very pleased with Melanie and could not ask not recommend a better person to be on your side in any type of situation.

After two years of being stalked, attacked, my home robbed, my property damaged and my son in peril due to an ex-husband with a narcissistic personality disorder, I received a call one day that changed my life. My attorney told me that my ex-husband had been arrested for intimidating my son and that I really needed a special attorney to handle my case. He told me that some cases are just too tough for the ordinary family law attorneys and require attorneys who are trained to handle the more difficult divorce situations. He referred me to Melanie Reichert and it was the best legal advice he could have given me. Over the course of a year, Melanie helped me to turn around a situation in which my ex-husband and his attorney were bullying my son and I. When my ex-husband had my son arrested from high school for refusing to visit with him and a judge failed to see the insanity of that situation, I began to lose hope. Prior to Melanie taking our case, my ex-husband's attorney had somehow convinced a judge that my ex-husband was the victim. They even asked the court to require that I pay for a PC and they insured that it was a PC that would support my ex-husband's cause. My son and I lived for two years in hell, fearing for our safety each day and never knowing what might happen to him next. My son became depressed by the constant attacks by my ex-husband. Melanie took action quickly to provide quick, concise and strategic advice on how to best approach the situation. She was calm and a voice of reason. She understood that my goal was for my son and I to live in peace. Melanie recommended a psychological assessment of the our family which helped provide the information needed to show the instability of my son's father and she helped us show the corrupt behavior of the counselor. In less than a year, I was able to gain legal and physical custody of my son. Melanie is a good listener, focused, attentive to your situation and works hard to provide you with guidance throughout the entire process. Today, my son is happy and has received a wonderful scholarship to attend college. I thank God everyday for putting Melanie in our path. I am convinced her counsel saved the life of my child. I will be forever grateful for Melanie's counsel during a very difficult time and I highly recommend her services to those facing difficult family divorce situations.

Melanie is biased, she will lie on legal documents, then when called out, will blame the client for her error, then eventually will claim to be only human. Her lies are vast, she will claim to meet people and do things as a way of increasing the bill. She doesn’t budge from her way, even when it doesn’t fit the current case, despite the tens of thousands you are paying her. She refers doctors and other “professionals” for kick backs allegedly.

I met with her and she did not ask a single question that showed me that she had any interest in my children. She was aggressive but it felt wrong because she seemed to skip over wanting to do the right thing.
