Ron McCallum and Joshua Upthegrove worked very hard and aggressively to defend my auto accident claim. My friend passed away and I had past medical issues which the insurance company tried to blame for my injuries. Ron and Joshua successfully fought back to defend my new injuries. I highly recommend their services.

My teenage son was in an auto accident in 2016. The other driver collided into our vehicle after crossing two lanes and pushed our suv on the curb. There was so much damage to the vehicles, the other driver couldn't get out of her car. The insurance company (Travelers Ins) would only pay 15% of total bills. Even though we had medical evidence, they felt like he wasn't injured and that it was "just a scrape". After dealing with Travelers insurance for over a year, we contacted Josh Upthegrove, MBA, Sr Paralegal of McCallum Law Firm. After a telephone conversation, he accepted our case. The demand letter to Travelers Ins was amazingly thorough, covering all applicable legal applications and consequences, quoting case law, etc. Because of Josh and the McCallum Law Firm, our case settled for about 95% more than what Travelers said was the absolute FINAL offer. Needless to day, I HIGHLY recommend the McCallum Law Firm.

Working with Sam has been an experience that exceeded our expectations. He has helped us complete our provisional patent and not only has he been timely and efficient in his work but he has also been good at communicating so we understand where exactly we're at in the process (this means the world to me and my wife). Could not be happier with our decision to go with Sam!

I hired Ty Gomez to represent me for a wrongful termination situation. He was extremely knowledgeable about my rights under Texas law and was able to help me receive the commissions I was due. I attribute the success in my case to Ty because the communication he provided to my past employer created awareness about how I was mistreated by newly hired management. He also was strategic about when and how to communicate. Consequently, the company paid me the commissions that should have been owed to me which they did not plan on paying me. In my case, particularly, I could not really claim a typical reason for discrimination obviously protected by law, so being strategic was key -- and Ty was a master. I do think that anyone that was in a situation like me should report concerns of mistreatment to HR or to upper level management when there is a concern of being mistreated, and likely being misrepresented to others. Working under highly stressful circumstances because of mistreatment is not right! However, if you do report your concerns, nothing is resolved, and your manager timely decides to "go in a new direction" before commissions are due to roll in, Ty will help!

Ty was able to discover an aspect of my case that I had not previously considered, or given serious thought. Had Ty not pointed it out, my case probably would not have gone very far. However thanks to his efforts, I received much more than I was originally offered. However, what I appreciate the most is that Ty did not promise the world and kept expectations realistic; and I was awarded pretty close to what he predicted. This peace of mind from an accurate depiction of events is well worth the money Ty charges for his services.

I cannot express how grateful I am for Attorney Hershel’s support in my case against a company that attempted to withhold my contractual payment and avoid paying me the money I was rightfully owed. Hershel stood by my side, offering unwavering guidance and support. His expertise and dedication brought justice to my situation, and we achieved a successful outcome. Hershel’s commitment to fairness and justice is truly commendable. At a time of need, he stepped in and fought for my rights. Thanks to him, I was able to reclaim my hard-earned money and restore my peace of mind. If you are facing similar issues, I highly recommend Hershel as the attorney who will stand up for you and ensure that justice prevails. Thank you Hershel, for everything!

I can't say enough good things about Lyons & Simmons. My case was small in comparison to many cases, but I never felt small. Stephen Higdon always made me feel heard and seen all the while keeping me informed through every step of the process. He was compassionate, kind, and always available when I had questions. His scope of knowledge on the details of my case and all the parties involved was extensive. I wouldn't want anyone else representing me.

As someone whose life was altered by a workplace injury, I can't speak highly enough of Lyons and Simmons Law Firm. As soon as I called them, their attorneys, Chris and Stephen, showed empathy and dedication to my case.
Trying to figure out complex workplace injury law can be unnerving, but Chris and Stephen's expertise put me at ease. They led me through every step of the legal process, making sure that I understood my rights and options.
What really makes Lyons and Simmons unique is their commitment to securing the best possible outcome for their clients. They fought tirelessly on my behalf, advocating for the compensation and support I deserved. Their attention to detail and strategic approach resulted in a settlement that surpassed my expectations.
Beyond their legal skill, Chris and Stephen are caring individuals who prioritize their clients' well-being. They took the time to listen to my concerns and provided great emotional support throughout the journey.
Lyons and Simmons secured the financial compensation I needed to move forward. I am very thankful for their representation and truly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal assistance for workplace injuries.

Months ago I was scammed by some rip-offs after my father’s death, they promised to fix my credit score. I told them my entire financial situation and they promised to help me ASAP and I trusted them. They asked me to make an upfront payment of $2000 which I did. I had already made the second payment of $2000 before my wonderful cousin sister who has been beside me through all my ordeals convinced me they were scammers, she later introduced me to a credit guru (Metronet Credit Solution) who had helped her acquire loan in the past. They helped me clear every negative item on my report and boosted my score to excellent within 9days interval; they further helped me to recover my $4,000 from those scammers. I’m very grateful for their help. I strongly recommend them to any person in need of credit fix, fund recovery, bitcoin recovery. Are you tired of been scammed Contact them via

Craig represented me in a recent issue with a vehicle manufacturer. I had a warranty failure their dealerships could not manage to fix and had been trying to escalate this issue to the manufacturer for months, sent emails to executives, etc. and could hardly get any response.
Craig sent one demand letter for me. They must have Googled him and realized he's not someone they want to mess with because they responded to his demand letter very quickly and made me a generous offer. Craig facilitated the process and I just deposited a check that I'm pretty happy with.

My company used Mark's services while we were negotiating our lease agreement(s) with different landlords. Mark was able to guide us through the process and more importantly highlight areas in the contract that would have gotten us into a legal and financial bind down the road. Mark also helped wordsmith some of the language in the contract so it would be beneficial for us.
Mark is personable, knowledgeable, diligent and very easy to work with. I highly recommend Mark for any issues related to real estate.

Without getting into actual details, I will give you my experience with him. 10 years ago after spending money on the "Big Name" Attorney's in Tampa (who did nothing and had no plan) I ran into Mr. Baer, the new guy out of Texas. He made no promises but did some things at the time I thought were CRAZY! I was thinking "that sounds good, but just like the other Attorneys told me, no way they are going to go for that" I had that planted in my head, but Mr. Baer told me all they can do is turn us down. Still not convinced however, I let him do it his way. Now that I look back on it you can't do "normal things" and expect "crazy results" You have to be a little bit crazy if you want to crush it. That is exactly what he did CRUSHED IT! Everything he asked for we got! Stephen Baer is legit! If you have a Federal Case and you don't at least have him look at it. YOU ARE DOING YOURSELF AN INJUSTICE! Not that I would ever want to go through that again, but if I did the only person in my Corner I would want. Would be be Attorney Stephen Baer. Can't thank him enough. I just ran into his name again (10 years Later) while searching for immigration Attorney's. Couldn't be any happier. I will be hiring him again, if he will take my case.

I can't say enough positive things about Michael Cohen. I live in Georgia with a family member in Texas and needed to get a lot accomplished during our visit. I provided an agenda of items that were needed and he and his staff met every need and I'm so appreciative. For those going through this process with a loved one, Michael Cohen is a great partner through the process.
In response, to those that feel the cost were high... I can only speak for myself, but I went in with all the items that I needed identified ahead of time and the cost were within reason compared to other attorneys. If you don't have a plan you can literally talk for days about all the scenarios you and your family could face and that will raise your spending.
Good luck!

Michael Cohen has a vast knowledge and expertise in Elder Care Law. He was highly recommended to me by two lawyers who greatly respect his work. It is his passion, as one can see in consultation meetings w/him. He is constantly updating his knowledge of all the Medicare & Medicaid Laws in Texas, as well as in other states, as the laws change continually. Michael is a teacher by nature wanting all the family members involved to understand all the pertinent information/facts that might apply to your individual case. In dealing with an elder, Michael's compassion for his or her situation is truly evident, not only in his words, but also by his actions. I highly recommend this Elder Care Attorney. I trusted him to complete a living trust for my beloved mother. To me, honesty and trust is everything when choosing an Elder Care Attorney to help our aging parents. I recommend Michael B. Cohen without hesitation to you.

I was a client of Mr. David Urteago. The following brief paragraph is an objective review of my experience working with him: Mr. Urteago is the definition of the word "attorney". He does not have any flashy advertisements, but he fights for his clients in a manner unparalleled by anyone. Mr. Urteago is an extremely sharp man who is absolutely fully dedicated to his clients' success. He puts his clients first to a degree that's in its own elevated category. Of course, I recommend this attorney - he'll take great care of you. (My statements are all based on facts from personal experience working with this attorney.)

If you are in need of legal assistance, then look no farther than Judge Joe Kendall. His experience speaks for itself. He knows the law so well, he rarely looks at his notes. He can explain the law too most Judges he is in front of. What more would you want than such a POWERFUL man,that will not let you down! And 85% of the time you will have a blast working with him! Other 15% I'll leave to myself!

What a Consumer Protection Lawyer Can Do for You
A consumer protection lawyer specializes in safeguarding individuals from unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent business practices. These lawyers advocate for the rights of consumers in disputes with businesses, helping clients recover damages related to fraud, defective products, false advertising, or violation of consumer protection laws. They work to enforce laws that prevent businesses from taking advantage of consumers and ensure that businesses adhere to fair practices.
Whether you’ve been the victim of a scam, sold a faulty product, or misled by false advertising, a consumer protection lawyer can help you navigate legal options and pursue justice.
When Should I Hire a Consumer Protection Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a consumer protection lawyer when you’ve encountered unfair or illegal business practices and need legal assistance to resolve the situation. Common scenarios include:
- Fraud or deceptive business practices: If a company misled you into purchasing a product or service under false pretenses, a lawyer can help you seek compensation.
- Defective products: If you purchased a product that was unsafe or defective and caused harm, a lawyer can help you file a product liability claim.

How Are Consumer Protection Lawyers Paid?
Consumer protection lawyers typically use different fee structures depending on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Contingency fee: For many consumer protection cases, such as class actions or product liability claims, lawyers may work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (typically between 25% and 40%) of the awarded amount.
- Hourly rate: For more complex cases or ongoing legal disputes, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates can range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract or filing a small claim, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the necessary legal work.
- Retainer fee: For clients needing ongoing legal assistance, some lawyers may charge a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on the case.
It’s important to discuss fees upfront with your lawyer to understand how you’ll be charged and to avoid unexpected costs.
