Thank you for all the help today. Can't tell you how much I appreciate it!

After spending 10,700 Ms Garrett told me to negotiate my own settlement with my ex husband. All she had to do was help me enforce the divorce decree. She could not remember my name or anything about my case when we spoke but charged me for everything. I got screwed twice, once by my ex and then by Ms Garrett. Do your homework before thinking about hiring any lawyer, don't hire them based on 5 star reviews. Check out their track record first or you might as well throw your money in the toilet.

Linda Garrett is a gem! I was nervous about the process, I was worried about the quality of service and uncertain about the cost. I called Linda's office and scheduled a consultation. During our complimentary consultation, which she offers for 10 to 15 minutes, as an opportunity to explain her services; I could sense her level of integrity. She explained the process and shared my options in depth, she even gave me some suggestions of what to do and not to do when communicating with the courts, in event I chose to represent myself. I tossed and turned the night after our free consultation because I knew I needed a lawyer, but I was worried about the cost. After obtaining Linda's rate, I researched for hours trying to determine the going rate, and I discovered that Linda's rate of service is definitely the norm within the law industry. Since I had such a good feeling about her, I scheduled a one-hour consultation, where I was able to share the details of my case; at that time, I felt affirmed that I needed to retain Linda. Before the call was over, I asked Linda if she would represent me, and she said "Yes!". What a relief, I thought. Note: She was on time for both calls! And her Assistant is super friendly and accommodating. We synced our schedules, I sent the required paperwork and payment, and about a few days later, we spoke again by phone to complete the court documents (Family Law). It was an AWESOME experience, Linda completed the paperwork with me on the phone, she asked me questions and shared what she was typing as she went. After the paperwork was done, Linda sent me a copy to review and provide any edits, if I had any. I had no corrections, everything was flawless!!!!!! The next communication was when Linda emailed me to confirm that the paperwork had been filed, and the next step after that was our court date. On the court date itself, we met each other 15 minutes early to check-in. I was so happy to see her! Her appearance was very professional, and her energy was kind and supportive. While I was so anxious, I am certain that if I didn't retain Linda, my experience would have been much different; and probably not as promising. The day went smoothly, and Linda's defense granted a dismissal. Linda Garrett is Trustworthy, honest, caring and I can tell that she is passionate about serving her clients to the highest of her ability. She is not in this field purely for the money, she cares, I didn't feel like a number, I didn't feel like her attention was divided, she made me feel like NUMBER 1, like her highest priority! Linda was friendly with the court staff, has a calm confidence about herself, and more than anything, I felt like someone who REALLY cared about my circumstances was there to support me. I am so grateful for Linda. I am hoping I won't need to go to court again, and if I do, without hesitation, I will reach out to Linda, hoping she can fit me into her busy schedule. If you are looking for a great attorney, look no further, Linda Garrett is all that you need!

I worked with Linda on two different occasions dating back to 2012. She has always provided me with thoughtful and well reasoned advice. She also did a great job of letting me know my options.

Ms. Garrett was extremely helpful during a very difficult negotiation with a court appointed attorney who had challenged our petition for conservatorship for my mother in-law and was thereby recommending a third party fiduciary to manage her estate. After discussing very immediate issues, Ms. Garrett was able to persuade the attorney that it would be in her client's been interest to support our petition, which she did. If it weren't for Ms. Garrett's assistance, a third party fiduciary would be managing my mother in-law's estate now 15 months later and the cost of managing her estate would be far move expensive.

Linda Garrett did an extremely good job helping my wife and I get a loan modification from our bank. She is very knowledgeable about mortgage loans, loan modifications, and foreclosure. She gave us very practical and actionable advice that prevented the bank from foreclosing and ultimately we succeeded in getting a loan modification. I would strongly recommend Linda's services to anyone who is struggling with their mortgage, or trying to prevent the foreclosure of their home.

I recently landed a job requiring me to write up a work contract. I needed help making sure everything was written professionally and with no loose ends. Linda's attention to detail, knowledge, attentiveness and eagerness to make sure the contract was written with my best interest in mind was second to none. She made sure my schedule, pay rate, hours of availability and unavailability were written in a way to eliminate any confusion. She responded to all my question either via email or on the phone with no hesitation. I felt a high level of comfort and confidence that I would have the best contract available and had it not been for her, I would have struggled for days. I would recommend Linda's services to anyone needing professional, smart, and informed advice.

Linda is a lawyer that you can depend on, when you need questions answered she is quick to respond very helpful and someone that you can trust to get the help you need. I will definitely recommend her. Thank you again LInda

My experience working with Linda Calderon Garrett of Bryan/Hinshaw was excellent. Very few people desire to engage in custody issues in court but if they the situation arises, the best help one could get is with an experienced, confident, knowledgeable attorney. Linda was that attorney for me. Her confidence in her knowledge of the law helped to guide me in making informed choices as well as help me consider alternatives to going to court or possible solutions to outcomes which I, as a layperson, had no idea about. By the time I left her office, I felt capable to address the court and not like a victim of the opposing counsel's litigiouos agenda .

I had a 2hr consultation with Linda about possible foreclosure on my house and my options. Prior to our phone consultation she emailed me a list of items I needed for the consultation. When we started the consultation, Linda stated that she wanted me to be able to make an informed decision. With her advise I was able to obtain a modification on my house loan, and save $$. I have and will recommend her to everyone I know. She is very caring, well informed and attentive.

I highly recommend Ms. Garrett's services because of her integrity, knowledge and trustworthiness. Her ability to patiently explain, and guide her client to the best possible solution is brilliant. She just plain cares about her clients.

I was mostly impressed by her ability to fully explain the law in lay man terms. Her vast knowledge in the field afforded me the opportunity to consider various options and allowed me to gain the confidence necessary to make an informed decision on how to move forward. Her ever present professional demeanor encourages questions and she is most responsive to concerns and reviewing steps and options. She is far removed from the stereotypical "attorney ambulance chaser." She is genuinely concerned that individuals are well informed on the law and one's options. She is highly recommended by our family!
