The Pascoe law firm and his team have unmatched professionalism and are the best and most knowledgeable in the industry. When searching for someone to be in your corner and fight for your legal situation, you want an attorney and team to communicate every step, explain all of the details in advance, and treat your case with utmost priority. He did just that and showed such compassion and answered all of my questions during a very stressful and painful time. He's also backed by years of experience, awards, referrals from other well-respected attorneys, judges, and colleagues, and that speaks volumes. If you want someone who will listen to you, strategize, and give you honest feedback and guidance, look to John Pascoe and his team. If you were my family member-I would want your case in their hands. I highly recommend.

I am truly so thankful for Mr Markowtiz I was pretty worried about going to court last minute by myself, not knowing what I going to say or do. Mr Markowtiz reached out, and really made a huge effort the same day of my court date to find out all the information about my case, and ended up getting it dismissed. I'm very very grateful.

Hello, I just wanted to take the time to write about my experience with the Law Office of Theresa L. Henry. I don't where to begin to explain my sincere gratitude and appreciation Theresa Henry was to me. My life took an unfortunate turn and it felt like a horrible nightmare, I was scared and confused. It truly means so much that she believed me and was there to help me in the time of need. I appreciate everything she did, she made me feel heard and accompanied each time I had to appear in court. I am genuinely a good person and I take pride in helping others so for her to show compassion and professionalism was definitely reassuring for me. I hope I don't need her in the future unless it is for hopefully something good lol but if anyone comes across with any problems please know she will be there for you. Sincerely, Case dismissed "In the the interest of justice"

So I filed for divorce and wasn't sure how the process went so I shopped around for lawyers. I met Mrs. Mueller and was very pleased. She explained EVERYTHING so I wasnt confused about what was going on. Every question I had about the process and what to expect, was explained. My divorce was finalized quick and in a hurry! She has such a personable personality! Your not a client. Your someone she laughs with and she makes light of the situation. You feel as if you've know her. NRA. Mueller would call me herself and returned emails PROMPTLY. I even had my Will taken care of through her office. Definitely professional and super easy to work with.

Dinah Mueller is an extremely knowledgeable and professional lawyer. Her in depth family law background helped me successfully navigate the challenges of my divorce and child custody issues. She returns calls and emails promptly, and takes the time to explain complex legal situations so that you clearly understand your options. When my ex's lawyer was all about threats and drama, Dinah was calm and reassuring and this ultimately resulted in a better outcome for me and my children. I fully endorse and highly recommend Dinah if you need legal representation.

April 15, 2012 I was arrested for a DWI. I had a history of DWI convictions. The District Attorney was ruthless. I was on Parole and could not bond out. I went to trial and was found NOT GUILTY on April 2, 2015. Yes, I was found NOT GUILTY after sitting in jail 2-1/2 years. I felt my neck under the boot of an impatient, Byzantine legal bureaucracy of Galveston County. The true blessing and hope was that I was in good hands with Tad Nelson and Amber Spurlock on my side. I was in the conservative court of Judge Lonnie Cox, which is said to favor the State. I was summoned to his chambers and was greeted by an Electric Chair sitting next to the photo of him and his bride. One could not feel any less comfortable. The Galveston Police officer had a story and so did I. Both stories conflicted each other. Tad Nelson listened to every word I had to say and he asked all the right questions. Tad and his team did their research, and did a great job doing so. Thanks to Amber Spurlock with Tad Nelson, we won! I am forever grateful for all the attention he gave me and the fact that she paid attention to what I had to say. I tell everyone I know about Amber Spurlock and Tad Nelson because of their great work. It was a very stressful time and Amber was there for me. A case like this is very hard to win, but I believed in myself and more important my lawyer Amber Spurlock. -Jeff Walters

Amber is an unbelievable asset to have represent you. She is well spoken and extremely professional. Her greatest strength has to be her ability to extend her knowledge of the ever changing state and federal laws; while also becoming familiar with a multitude of other industries. For example, Amber has an understanding of the scientific/chemical engineering involved with the collection of physical evidence. She attends hands-on classes and seminars where she gains extensive knowledge regarding proper procedures and the science involved. She is diligent in her research and I believe there is not one area of concern she will not address with same intensity for the strict purpose of identifying all angles in your case.

Edward Gray is an excellent Lawyer. Edward fought extensively behind the scenes to win my case. He kept me updated regularly by email. Edward was always available, to answer questions, by text or by phone. Prompt responses, within minutes. He is extremely impressive intelligence, with integrity. He was very thorough and honest about what I was facing and I always felt like he went the extra mile. Edward is very knowledgeable in his field and knew what direction to take to get the best results. His attention to detail and cutting to the chase was quite impressive. Edward did not waste anytime.. I am over joyed after an intensive 3 years we won. 2 cases they worked on both were very successful results. I would high recommend Edward Gray & Fulton Broemer...

He is very smart and thorough and will not let you down. He is very worthy of your consideration for representation.

Donnie was fantastic. I initially called an attorney’s office near my home that I was familiar with, and they themselves are the ones who actually referred me to Donnie for my particular circumstances. I had “fix it” tickets for not having an updated address on my license and my registration had expired. I went online, updated the address, paid the fine, sent proof to the court. With the registration ticket, I updated my registration, paid the late fees and submitted proof to the court. Where I dropped the ball was overlooking the additional $10 fine that could only be paid in person. The League City Municipal Court had set a court date for me that I had missed and when I was notified via text from the city about my arrest warrant, you can probably imagine my bewilderment. I called the court and initially spoke to an extremely unsympathetic clerk who gave me two options: Pay the much larger fine now and have a misdemeanor on my record or turn myself in, spend the day and night in jail and roll the dice with the judge the next day. This is all over an additional $10 fine that was in addition to the fees I had paid in updating my registration. Absolutely ludicrous, and this random clerk clearly had a bone to pick with me about missing the court date. I then spoke with the League City Municipal Court Administrator who was exactly the same. Pay the fine, enjoy the new criminal record or go to jail and pound sand. At this point I’m nearly livid at the absurdity of this kangaroo court and 20 minutes later I’m on the phone with Donnie. His fee happened to be exactly the same as the fine I was facing, yet with him I’d at least have a shot at getting this whole thing taken care of. So obviously, this is a no brainer. Donnie immediately got to work. I admit I was surprised at how promptly he got into it. He gave me a phone call later in the same day after spending an hour on the phone with the same clerk I dealt with. In essence, this random court clerk somehow thought she knew the law better than an actual attorney with a resume like Donnie’s and he had to politely, but firmly put her in her place. She called the judge to confirm if she was right or Donnie was right and the judge put her in her place as well and minutes later the arrest warrant was pulled and Donnie had me squared away. I went back to the Municipal court to pay my $10 fine, gave the clerk the most smug smile I have ever mustered in my entire life and was on my way. It’s a paradoxical shame that I met Donnie in these circumstances as he exudes competence and was a genuine pleasure to work with. I would love to do more business with him in the future, but I generally do not run afoul of the law and would have to screw something up majorly for us to have that opportunity. Rest assured however, that whatever circumstance I may find myself in that needs an attorney, Donnie will be the first I call. If the specific circumstance is out of his realm it expertise, I will still reach out to him and ask for a recommendation as I trust his judgment that much already. If you’re considering utilizing his services, you are only doing yourself a disservice by not at least giving him a call. And to Donnie, thank you for everything.

He did everything to ease my worries and concerns and even provided me with his cell phone number, which I had to use when I was having a panic attack because of the case and within 2 min he reassured me we were in a good position. The best thing is that he's a former prosecutor so his words carry alot of weight in the court room. Mr. Smith got my case dismissed , he will be the first to tell you that he can't make any promises but the man delivers the desired results.

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.
  10. Are there alternative ways to solve my legal problem?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  2. Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
  3. Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
  4. Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
  5. Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
  3. List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  4. Financial Information:
    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
  5. Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
  6. Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
  8. Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
    • Flat Fee:
      For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
    • Retainer Fee:
      An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.
    • Contingency Fee:
      Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
    • Monthly Retainer:
      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
  • Factors Affecting Cost:
    • Complexity of the Case:
      More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
    • Lawyer's Experience:
      Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
    • Geographic Location:
      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:
      Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
  • Estimating Total Costs:
    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
    Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
  • Pro Bono Services:
    For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
