Your Idaho Family Law Team
Family Law & Mediation Services
At Anthon Law & Mediation, we proudly serve families not only in Boise but also across the Treasure Valley and Southern Idaho. From downtown Boise to Cassia County’s farming communities, we offer consistent care, compassion, and practical expertise for every case.
Whether you’re facing divorce, revising a parenting plan, or seeking guardianship of a loved one, our aim is always to assist Idaho families in achieving clarity, stability, and happiness.
Boise & the Treasure Valley
Our main office in Boise provides calm, steady guidance to help families navigate divorce, custody, and mediation. Boise is our home base. We are familiar with the Ada County Courthouse on Front Street, the patterns of local judges, and the unique challenges Boise parents face in balancing work, school, and family life. Visit our Boise Family Law Attorney page to learn more about how we serve families right here in the city.
Just west of Boise, many of our clients come from Meridian, Idaho, where growing families and busy schedules often make mediation an ideal way to resolve disputes without going to court. We also assist parents and spouses in Nampa, Idaho, helping them modify child support, create parenting schedules, and resolve custody matters with a practical, child-first mindset.
Further west, Caldwell, Idaho, families turn to us for help with adoption, guardianship, and other sensitive family law matters. Each community in the Treasure Valley has its own personality and pace, and our team is familiar with the local courts, the expectations, and the people who make these towns feel like home.

Southern Idaho Communities
Family law touches every part of Idaho, and we’re proud to serve clients in smaller towns and rural counties where local representation matters most. In Twin Falls, we regularly work with families through divorce mediation and custody agreements. The Twin Falls County courts are familiar ground for our attorneys, and we often help parents find parenting plans that reflect the realities of work, travel, and changing family needs.
We also assist clients in Jerome County, where many families turn to us for adoption, guardianship, or step-parent custody matters. In Cassia County and Minidoka County, we support parents with custody modifications or enforcement issues, often helping families find solutions before conflicts escalate in court.
Our team also serves clients in Owyhee County, including residents of Homedale, Marsing, and the surrounding rural areas. Life in smaller Idaho towns can make travel and communication between co-parents more challenging, and we help clients craft custody and visitation plans that account for long drives, farm schedules, and shifting work demands. We also work with families in Burley and Rupert, providing legal support for divorce, guardianship, and child support adjustments when life circumstances change.
Why Families Across Idaho Choose Us
Every Idaho family has unique needs, but all share the demand for practical legal assistance that honors their time and values. Whether in Boise or Twin Falls, our clients value our clear communication, prompt responses, and focus on realistic outcomes. We believe that family law shouldn’t be about winning or losing; rather, it should focus on finding solutions that protect children, uphold dignity, and enable everyone to move forward.
Since we operate across several counties, we understand each courthouse’s procedures and tailor our approach accordingly. Whether your case is filed in Ada, Canyon, Twin Falls, Cassia, or Minidoka County, you’ll benefit from a team that is well-versed in both legal requirements and local protocols. Additionally, if you’re outside Boise, much of your case can typically be managed remotely via phone calls, video conferences, and electronic filings.
