I can not express enough the gratitude towards my, Attorney Luis Reyna III. He was able to exceed our families expectations handling my divorce, child custody and child support case. I was simply lost before retaining him to represent me. From, the first moment I sat in his office during my consultation he was able to make put my mind at ease and through his reassuring calm demeanor, Mr. Reyna, also is extremely passionate at what he does! I have the peace of mind that I have an attorney who I can always turn too in times of need. Thank you Mr. Reyna and your amazing staff. Hes someone who truly cares about his clients and their circumstances.

Mr. Reyna was appointed to defend me in a case involving multiple first and second degree felonies. He worked hard from day one to help me get my life back to normal. Luis displays a calmness and professionalism that is very comforting in a time of great fear and confusion. Mr. Reyna really went to bat for me and I would recommend his services to anyone.

Ms. Voigt is by far an amazing person and attorney with a lot of grace in her heart. Ms. Voigt is definitely very dependable, honest, compassionate and trust worthy. She takes her job to heart and although is not able to make promises she will promise that she "will fight to the end for her client). Ms. Voigt is highly talented, knowledgable and offers great attention to detail. I was in need of hiring an attorney, it was late Sunday evening, when unfortunately I came across a very stressful custody situation. I contacted Ms. Voigt Sunday evening in need of legal advice/assistance asap, by the grace of God she answered and I was so thankful, I didn't expect any attorney to answer after hours let alone on a Sunday. She was definitely first on my list to call, as I had previously sat in many court hearings in which I had witnessed Ms. Voigt in action fighting for her client(s). She communicates well pursasively, clearly and to the point both orally and written. Ms. Voigt met with my fiancé and I first thing Monday morning and was prepared to hear our case start legal action immediately. She listened very well and explained so much to us and helped me better understand my case and next course of legal action. Ms. Voigt is very dependable and responds most promptly to email, text, calls, etc. I would greatly recommend Ms. Voigt, she helped us so much throughout our stressful situation, she made me feel calm & positive throughout the duration of our case and very much satisfied with the outcome of our court hearing. I will continue to have Ms. Voigt as our attorney, she was placed in our paths for a reason and I thank God for that and for her. Many blessings to Ms. Voigt :)

Mr. Thau helped me with my divorce, he answered all my questions and was there every step. This year has been unlike any other time in my lift, with the assistance of his office it would have been so much worse. They advise I was give was so helpful and even when I asked or was so upset they took the time to reassure me that everything was going to be OK and they would help me in any way they could. It was a long 8 months but I would not want any other lawyer than Mr. Thau and his office. I would recommend them with any legal matter you might need. Thank you Mr. Thau and your office during this time in my life, you were a God sent.

Don't let his mild manor fool you, put him in a court room and he will fight a relentless battle for the truth. We hired him to fight a bogus restraining order filed by my fiance's EX GIRLFRIEND to keep him from visitaions with his children. Not only did we leave the courtroom with the children but after only her testimony & cross examination the judge stopped all further testimony and met in chambers with the children, ending almost immediately with us retaining the children and the Ex owing court ordered expenses... He really knows how to deliver a case and leave no doubt as to the truth. Thank you EMMETT REYES

Chris Mcjunkin is an extremely intelligent, highly motivated attorney with a laser focus when it comes to Employment Law. He won an extremely complicated case in my favor against a corrupt system. He was brilliant in his arguments before the US Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans resulting in the decision to move forward with the case. He is succinct in his arguments, always getting to the "heart of the matter". You can have confidence in his abilities.

My sincere thanks to Susanne Bonilla Harrold and David Henry for doing a fantastic job in handling my child support case. This was my first experience with a court case and the entire process. I did not know what to expect; especially being abroad; it was very hard on me, but Suzanne tranquilized me through the entire process.
Suzanne was professional, and although we only talked on the phone, she was genuinely empathetic, competent and most importantly, honest. Her compassion towards me was unique. She did not set false expectations, and she was very patient, taking care to explain every step of the process to me so I was able to make informed decisions. Everyone at Suzanne’s Law Firm was professional, courteous, and extremely helpful. They took care of all the stressful phone calls and emails which made it less complicated as possible! When I had questions, no matter what they were, they responded quickly by telephone or email.
In court, for my case, I worked specifically with her associate David Henry, he was knowledgeable, assertive when necessary, and patient with my questions, keeping me updated the entire time. During the hearing, David Henry kept in touch with me so I was able to follow the entire session as if I was actually there. He is as caring and sincere as he is a skilled professional. I highly recommend this firm because it will not disappoint you! Thank you Suzanne’s law firm! I appreciate your time, experience, and trustworthiness!

Mr Cochran was appointed to my son's case for possession. My son had already had the case deferred in the past but failed to comply with the conditions. I asked Mr Cochran if he could reinstate the deferral, given the immaturity of my son. He was able to convince the court to give him another chance. I will always be appreciative of his fine work and the consideration of the court.

As a lawyer Mr Galvan prosecuted the man who murdered my parents, in cold blood, immediately after they left the theatre. Worst off all this incident took place right in front of an impressionable 11 year old me. My parents were real difference makers in this town, you could almost say Titans of their industry, employing hundreds. You would have seen our last name everywhere circa 1990s and they made sure to give back to the community that so ruthlessly struck them down. I have to see past this ruthlessness vocal minority and see the inner good of our society like my father before me. Martha, Thomas, you will never be forgotten and I will not allow your deaths to be in vain. Mr Galvan in now a judge in the 94th district court and he has shown a strong penchant for justice and I know he has a job to do when it comes to vigilantes I truly believe that he would support what I am doing.

Bankruptcy is not an easy process to go through, but the staff at Oliva definitely helped keep the stress and anxiety to a minimum. I called several attorneys when my wife and I decided to pursue bankruptcy and Oliva Law was the first to call us back. I talked to a couple different law offices while I was deciding on one to hire. Oliva was the most consistent in communication and we are extremely happy with the choice we made. Rosie guided us through the process and kept us updated every step of the way as well as answering any questions we had with impressive speed. Thank you!

My family used Susan Hutchinson for will preparations for my parents. After my parents passed away, my brother again hired her to take care of my mother’s estate ( my father had already passed away).
Mrs. Hutchinson divided our family within 5minutes of meeting with her. The division was beneficial to her pocket book!!
She never provided transparency to our family/heirs regarding any billing even though I asked profusely.
The cost to take care of my mother’s home and two vehicles was around 20K. This is outrageous for such simple transactions.
So , if you are looking for an estate lawyer to divide your family, cost you a fortune, and leave you without transparency for the costs, Hutchinson is your lady!!

We had a horrible experience with another lawyer in town and were nervous and devastated to have to start the entire process of termination/adoption all over again. Lindsay and her team were able to accomplish in 6 months what we thought was going to be a much longer and arduous process. They were on top of communicating with us, including sending copies of all work being done. They were friendly and helpful and never made us feel like we couldn’t ask questions. We are beyond thankful that she was recommended to us and would not hesitate to use her again!

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
