Get to Know Mandalin
Mandalin Blanton is a strong, decisive advocate who approaches family law with the goal of empowering her clients. She is direct, strategic, and aims to ensure those she represents feel both supported and in control of their future.
Originally from a small town on the Blue Ridge Parkway just outside of Asheville, North Carolina, Mandalin grew up in a family deeply devoted to supporting children in the foster care system. This early exposure to the challenges and complexities of family dynamics ignited her passion for child advocacy and family law, shaping the purpose and drive she brings to R + E.
She earned her B.A. in Psychology from Mississippi State University in 2016 before attending Mississippi College School of Law on a full-tuition scholarship. While in law school, Mandalin fully immersed herself in family law and child advocacy, excelling in both the Guardian Ad Litem Clinic and the Advanced Child Advocacy Clinic. She joined Robertson + Easterling as a law clerk in 2021, and after being admitted to the Bar in the fall of 2023, she began practicing alongside Craig Robertson and Matt Easterling as an associate attorney.
A high achiever with a sharp mind and a competitive edge, Mandalin thrives in high-pressure situations, using her quick thinking and strong instincts to guide clients through difficult transitions. She sees beyond the immediate legal battles, helping her clients build confidence and independence as they step into the next chapter of their lives. She is perceptive, straightforward, and solution-oriented—cutting through uncertainty to help people make decisions that will serve them long after their case is resolved.
Mandalin is deeply committed to her clients’ well-being, recognizing that divorce is not just a legal process but an emotional and personal transformation. She believes in honesty, resilience, and growth, encouraging those she represents to embrace their strength and move forward with clarity and confidence. With her, clients find more than just a legal advocate—they find a powerful ally who will stand by them every step of the way.
