Located in a renovated 20th century home in St. Paul's quiet Grand Avenue neighborhood, Lucas Family Law leaves agendas where they belong – at the negotiating table or in court. We pride ourselves on a welcoming atmosphere that takes into account the sensitive nature of family law.

We believe in listening more than we talk. It is critical to your case that we understand all of the circumstances and issues that led you to our door. We take the time to gain your trust and get the full story.

Empowered by this knowledge, Lucas Family Law leverages our experience in mediation and alternative dispute resolution, area courts, matrimonial and child support law, paternity, and court procedures to support your interests. A SuperLawyer™ and President of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers – Minnesota chapter, lead attorney and qualified mediator Joan Lucas has built this firm on proven skill and a reputation for results. We also have on staff a former assistant county attorney of Ramsey County's Child Support and Enforcement Department, who has prepared and reviewed hundreds of family court cases for hearings and settlements.

Our team approach provides you with a responsive, well-researched case that can be the blueprint for your next life stage. We look forward to creating a future that fits you – and your loved ones.

"With their offices in a house, Lucas Family Law is a very welcoming place to come and discuss emotional issues. I think they have a strong desire to get to know people and I never felt like a case number. They were all very easy to talk to. Without their stewardship of my case, I don't think we could have finalized the divorce within 2006. They were really good about managing my expectations, but they also went the extra mile to get things done, like coming to my office to have some papers signed. I am a very satisfied customer."
