Andrew A. Chute is an Associate Attorney at Reel Fathers Rights in San Diego, California, where his practice focuses on representing men and fathers in California Family Courts. Admitted to the State Bar of California in 2025, he has practiced law in California since then and represents fathers in San Diego County in divorce and legal separation, child custody and visitation, and parentage cases.

About Andrew A. Chute

Andrew A. Chute represents fathers in San Diego County in divorce and legal separation, child custody and visitation, and parentage cases. A parentage case asks the court to decide who a child’s legal parents are, and an unmarried father often needs that order before the court can set custody or visitation. A divorce or legal separation can also require the court to set child support and decide the property division of community assets. In a custody case, the judge makes orders based on the best interest of the children.

Andrew earned his J.D. from California Western School of Law in 2025. There he served as a Senior Teaching Fellow, teaching foundational legal skills to first year students, and as a member of the law review. He was also a research assistant to the school’s Director of International Legal Studies. In law school, he worked as a student law clerk and summer legal intern in the San Diego Superior Court’s Office of the Family Law Facilitator, helping self represented parties with divorce filings, custody proceedings, and parentage actions. He also completed two judicial externships at the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, where he researched federal legal questions and helped draft judicial orders. Beyond his J.D., Andrew earned a Master of Laws (LL.M.) in International Business Law from the University of Oklahoma in 2026, along with an M.B.A. in 2024 and a B.S. in Management Information Systems in 2021, both from Columbia College.

Before joining Reel Fathers Rights in March 2026, Andrew handled civil litigation involving fraud and consumer protection claims. His time in the Family Law Facilitator’s office gave him a close view of how San Diego family court cases move from the first filing to a hearing. Many cases begin with a petition and a request for order, and the facilitator’s office helps parties who do not have a lawyer prepare those forms. He serves fathers throughout San Diego County, including Oceanside, Carlsbad, and Escondido. Andrew works from the San Diego office, one of eleven Reel Fathers Rights offices throughout California.
