I hired her to help with my divorce and custody battle. I went from having my child full-time for 6 months straight not even hearing from the other parent to getting less than standard as well as having to pay "back" child support for the time my child was actually in my possession. She yells, uses profanities, and says things like "I don't work for you who do you think you are." and yes I have that email in writing. She was the absolute worst to deal with. She called several of my female cousins out of their names for them being around my child. She got very very personal a few times and would even call me late hours (11;30pm, midnight) with my ex's attorney on the phone. She stated there was no such thing as people just randomly showing up to the court to testify and that ended up happening, the man who my ex cheated on me with testified in court on her behalf about my character. His and her drug use was documented and addressed in court, and even though my test was clean and theirs wasn't she somehow still ended up with custody. Hiring her was the worst decision I could have made for my child. If you can, stay away.

Proof is in the Performance: We are US citizens, retired in Mexico with family and Medicare in Houston. I've headed Nasdaq & Asian public companies from Silicon Valley for 30+ years with significant legal teams. Now we are finally focused on ourselves and personal legal representation is at the forefront. Due to an emergency medical situation February 28, 2019, we arrived at 7pm in the Methodist Hospital ER and needed full legal help--- Wills, DNR, Hippa, Pwr of Atty, +. T-G, PLLC only had 24 hours to prepare all documents, come to the ER on a Cold and rainy night, bring a witness and a Notary Public and explain clearly ALL to us. WOW! Ms. Grubbs is a valued professional with an easy demeanor and total grasp of what's needed. We are most impressed, pleased with the documents and her personal caring service. Thank you Betsy.

Jeffrey Singer has represented our family business several times over the past 30 years. He is professional and compassionate. He and his staff have become like family. The legal process is scary for anyone, including small businesses. It is comforting to know you have an attorney that knows the law, respected in the courtroom, and truly cares about the needs of his clients. Not to mention he is one of the best litigators in Houston. It is an honor to recommend Jeffrey Singer and his family operated law firm.

I retained Lionel and team as my counsel for an employment case. From the beginning, I knew he had my best interest at heart. It was a long road that was not always easy and he always remained professional and firm with opposing counsel. He has to be the most patient attorney ever, I had never been involved in a lawsuit before; therefore, I naturally asked a lot of questions and reviewed a number of scenarios during our meetings. I never once felt like he was rushing me or watching the clock. He was super thorough with his legal explanations and he was always very responsive. Most importantly, Garcia-Martin & Martin have a tremendous amount of compassion for their clients and they will fight for you. I cannot express my gratitude enough, if you need legal counsel, Garcia-Martin & Martin is the team for you!

I would like to offer a few words regarding my recent experience of my engagement of Damon for legal services.
I found myself in dire need of legal representation on a personal matter, divorce, and Damon answered the call in a timely manner. After our initial meeting in which I outlined my wishes, Damon “took the ball and ran with it”. He persisted in negotiating my desires and handled the manner in a professional and prompt manner, while always keeping me apprised of any ongoing circumstances.
By putting this matter into Damon’s hands, this freed me to pursue other pressing matters in my life at that time.
Should you need legal advice on any matter, I would highly recommend that you set-up a consultation meeting with Damon, go over you stance and wishes in the matter, and let him advise you of the “legal roadmap” to that end, thereby allowing you to make an informed decision.

I have recommended Damon as a lawyer to my family members and he managed them with the same care and professionalism. I definitely recommend Damon for others to seriously consider his services.

Melissa has provided me with legal advice and contract write up for the purchase of my two companies. She is extremely thorough in her work and helped me to look at the deals from all angles. Melissa also offers me legal advice on any business issue that has arisen including employment issues, contractor payments, reviewing customer contracts, etc. She responds back very quickly each time I needed anything. Her rates are always reasonable and I don't ever feel like she has taken advantage in any way. She wants to get the job done as quickly as I do. She is the best business lawyer I have ever worked with in my career. She's not only a great lawyer, she's also a great person.

When it came time for us to form our LLC, Melissa Garcia-Martin was our first choice. She was everything we were looking for in a small business lawyer. Mrs. Martin and her assistant were both very quick to respond to any questions or concerns my partner and I had about forming our partnership. Not having had previous experience in Partnership agreements, both my business partner and I had several questions regarding the agreement and LLC formation. Melissa was very thorough and answered all of our legal questions in a manner we could understand. We were a bit apprehensive about all of the paperwork filing with the State of Texas, but they removed the headache and took care of it all for us and did so very quickly. We met at their office to go over all of the details of the company operating agreement and she went over everything and made us feel very good about our decision and our legitimacy of the business moving forward. Melissa even gave us a beautiful corporate book with our name printed on it that we could keep all our official documents in. I am confident that any business legal need that we have in the future, we will be in great hands with Melissa Garcia-Martin and the Law Firm of Garcia-Martin and Martin. Finally, we loved the proximity of their location to ours. Their Law office was very conveniently located near ours in Stafford TX.

I've been very pleased with my overall experience as a client of the Skillern Firm.
Caitlin Thorpe has been incredible to work with and helped me through numerous difficult situations. I always appreciate her responsiveness, understanding, willingness to help, and ability to be straightforward. Never once did I have concerns with dishonesty, as I've had with several other attorneys I consulted with (or hired) outside of the Skillern Firm. She has a fantastic presence in the courtroom, where she demonstrates professionalism, confidence, and great attention to detail.
I would highly recommend Caitlin, and the firm itself, as everyone I've interacted with has been helpful and responsive here.
