I remember calling her one day when I was on edge and she talked me out of making a bad decision that would've definitely affected my children and I in a negative way. She defended me to the core and was very supportive of my wishes. I recommend her to anybody who wants an amazing attorney!

I rarely provide excellent reviews for anyone because it means I have to put my signature behind that person and be able to stand firm on my position regarding them: that's hard to do with most people in today's society. However, I immediately stood firm on my support regarding Mr. Willhelm because I have known him for almost five years now, and I have seen his professionalism, excellent and very caring representation of his clients, his stature as a Christ-centered man who cares deeply for "family", and he surrounds himself as well, with fellow professionals who display the same sense of honor, justice, and integrity. One simply has to take all of these attributes, observe his actions both in and out of the courtroom, and it is very clear that the Court NEEDS a Judge of his caliber. Legal decisions will always have an impact on others throughout this community, because all rulings (whether it be a case you think is meaningless or not) have a role in setting a precedence... ALL rulings... We wouldn't have penal codes had it not been for rulings which began a process to make a difference. We must ensure that those who practice the law understand that they, along with their actions, make a difference... Mr. Willhelm understands this and strives to ensure his practice and his actions, make a JUST difference. One thing I am confident about saying is this: regardless of the decisions made in what would be "Judge Willhelm's Court", you could at least leave his courtroom knowing that an honest, fair, impartial, experienced, honorable, and JUST person sat on that "bench"... No underhanded envelopes with coin being slid under his door, no "I could care less because it's not MY family suffering"... Because he doesn't operate that way. Having Mr. Willhelm as an attorney made an extremely difficult crisis for me and my family, bearable... And during the very hard times I have always said to myself what he told me years ago which was, "You WILL get through this"... He cares about his clients, their families, and providing JUSTICE for those who need it... And I will stand behind these words any day!

Joe is an extremely helpful person. He handled a criminal case for me and did an amazing job. I made a mistake and was told by many people that I was screwed. Joe got my case handled for a great price, and he made it to where I only had to do a little probation and then it would be OFF MY RECORD as long as I didn't get in any trouble during my probation time. His office staff is extremely kind and helpful and I would recommend Joe to anybody needing a lawyer that won't charge you an arm and a leg and still get the job done better than expected!!!!

I am an attorney. A couple of years ago I retained Vicky to represent my wife and I in a custody suit regarding my granddaughter. We had hired an attorney from our time to represent us. They quit, too hard to get done. I searched the web looking for someone who would represent us and not rip us off. Without reservation Vicky provided us with the BEST in representation. She was relentless, professional, and conservative in fees. She is a great lawyer!! Hire her if you need a great lawyer on your side.

I hired Kory as a parole attorney for my ex. He represented my ex at his parole hearing and he help us get him released the first go around. He advised me that that parole board he had was extremely difficult to persuade and that there was a possibility he wouldn't be approved for parole his first go around. But, Kory was able to get everything together that they needed and my ex was approved for parole his first time coming up for parole review. I don't think this would have happened if it wasnt for Kory and as far as I know he's one of the best in our town. I'm very grateful for him and id hire him again in a heartbeat if I needed a criminal attorney.

Pathetic representation! I hired Corey Clemence to defend me in a criminal case and he wasted 5 months of my time waiting on video evidence that I told him over and over again they were not going to turn over. We eventually decided it was best he remove himself from the case and I ended up representing myself because he was so ineffective! If you want good representation this is not the place to find it. Matter of fact it seems to me he did the absolute minimum as possible and was content sitting on his hands delaying my case over and over some of which was for his own personal vacation while I sat without a car as it was seized racking up impound fees. I'm in total regret of hiring this firm I expected better representation but instead I got a weak attorney!

I cannot express enough gratitude to Chad Williams and his incredible paralegal, Michelle, for their unwavering dedication and expertise in handling our family law case. Chad’s deep knowledge of family law and his straightforward approach were pivotal in navigating a complex and emotionally charged situation. However, Michelle truly became the heart and soul of our journey. Michelle’s compassion, meticulous attention to detail, and tireless effort went far beyond our expectations. She was the glue that held everything together, ensuring we were thoroughly prepared to help the court see through the lies and games presented by the opposition. Her astounding knowledge and ability to prepare and present the truth in a clear and impactful way made all the difference. Michelle gave her heart and soul to our case, going above and beyond to fight for what was right. This team didn’t just treat us as another case number; they treated us like family. They knew our children’s names, their stories, and cared deeply about the outcome of our case. Their personal touch and genuine investment in our family’s well-being were extraordinary. Without them—especially Michelle—we know we wouldn’t have been able to achieve this outcome or reunite our family. If you’re looking for a team that will fight tirelessly and with compassion to ensure justice prevails, look no further. Chad and Michelle truly saved our family, and we will be forever grateful to them.

Horrible customer service. Zero care for clients and do not value your business. Will not work with you in anyway - will cancel your account for making a request to update the billing email incorrectly. Sheila is not an employee a profitable company would want working for them.

Von Miller law office was outstanding!!! Top notch in my opinion. They were there every step of the way through my divorce. When I had questions or concerns they were always answer the phone or email, or get back within the hour. If you’re looking for a good attorney and one that makes you feel comfortable and is doing everything they can for you, choose Von Miller. He is really an outstanding attorney, and his secretary/right hand is just as amazing and helpful in every way possible. They’re a great team, even when I was blowing up their phone about stuff they were always so nice and helpful with everything I was going through.

I'm sure there are good lawyers in Taylor County, but the only one I would recommend is Dennis. He and Tammy were professional, direct, supportive, and showed genuine concern for my case and my family.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.

Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.

When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?

Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
  • Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
  • Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
  • Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
  • Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
  • Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
  • Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?

A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:

  • Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
  • Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
  • Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
  • Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
  • Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
  • Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
  • Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?

Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
  • Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
  • Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.

The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:

  • Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
  • Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
  • Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.

Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer

Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:

  1. What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption.
  2. How will you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved.
  3. What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case.
  4. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals.
  5. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases.
  6. Who will be handling my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.

How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
  • Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
  • Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
  • List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
  • Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
  • Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.

Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
