Ms. Abrams and her associates at The Johnson Firm provided me with excellent legal representation in two separate cases involving divorce and custody. If you seek a knowledgeable, trustworthy attorney for your family law issues, retain Ms. Abrams.

05 Oct, 2023 by Stephenie

I’m officially divorced! Thank you to my attorney, Erin Abrams, and my wonderful paralegal, LaToya Tunwar. This year has been the hardest yet most rewarding year. Thanks to The Johnson Firm, the process has been as easy as it can be. Erin and LaToya both effectively communicated with me throughout every step of the process. I highly recommend anyone who needs legal assistance to hire Ms. Abrams and her staff to handle their case.

I've known Mr Scott nettles for roughly a decade, I have referred several friends and family members all leading to acquittals. With regards to myself Scott has handled everything with great success. Not only that but he makes me feel like I am a part of his family, like this case of mine was first priority. I have never met an attorney like him. He definitely is not your average attorney, all he wants to do is win. Dealing with Scott is like dealing with a family member. His only concern is that Justice prevails. If you're looking for an attorney that cares about Justice and ensuring that you're right are upheld and our criminal justice system then this is the attorney you want. He is on your side and will work so hard to win your case. All you have to do is go talk to him for 15 minutes and you will see for yourself. I encourage anybody who is having to go through anything criminal to please reach out to this attorney because you will not be disappointed. I'm not just saying this because I've known him for a decade I'm telling you this because I just sent four more referrals. to Mr nettles not only did he not overcharge them he had everything thrown out for every person that was sent as well. in simple words if you're looking for the best look up Scott nettles take take 10 minutes set an appointment you'll see for yourself best criminal lawyer I've ever met best criminal lawyer. Don't take my word for it let me show you the actions

We hired Mr. Nettles to represent our son in a criminal case. He was very professional, understanding, and trustworthy! He kept us informed throughout our case. He fought for our son and achieved fair results. We are grateful that we had Mr. Nettles on our side. He saved our sons future!! I highly recommend him as an attorney.

I recently passed through a small town going faster than I should have (as I was honestly running late to a wedding). Ended up meeting a nice gentleman on the side of the highway and thought I would be looking at a speeding ticket real soon... Well... I thought wrong, and I was actually looking at serving a 90 day sentence at the local bed and breakfast (correctional center). I was referred to Mr. Nettles who “knew the law book from front to back.” I talked with him a few times and he went to work on my case. Later Mr. Nettles went to court on my behalf and took care of everything as he originally said he would. Scott really went above and beyond for me and I’m so thankful (and yes his knowledge of the law is extraordinary). It’s finally over now, and all was made right at town hall. Looking back I’m really not that upset for missing out the accommodations and breakfast! Thanks to Mr. Nettles

I would undoubtedly HIGHLY recommend Jerry Fontenot for all of your legal needs. Mr. Fontenot goes above and beyond for each and every client! My boyfriend was incarcerated for 3 years on a charge he did not commit. We hired Mr. Fontenot and within a couple of months, he was exonerated of all charges. Me. Fontenot is PASSION about his work, his clients and justice. He raises the bar on all attorneys and is the epitome of what a true attorney should be; both morally and ethically. We owe our lives to Mr. Fontenot and it’s a debt we can never repay. Mr. Fontenot is TOP NOTCH!!!

Thank you Jay Diamond

He was able to get my ex to break. Dealing with a narcissist is extremely difficult. He was able to navigate around my ex’s manipulative behavior and focus on what was on the line. My children’s best interest were in mind the whole way. At the end of the ordeal, I got my son back.

I was in a car accident last year, and Jay was a huge help with my tickets, and dealing with my insurance company— I would highly recommend him!

My son was charged with very serious drug charges and is from out of state. He was facing many years hard labor prison time. Attorney Fontenot said he could not make any promises. However, he would do his best, be transparent and communicate with us through out the process. During my son's incarceration, his 16 year old little sister died from Cancer. Attorney Fontenot took time away from his family vacation to notify the jail and have him brought out to receive the dreadful news so he could debrief away from others. Attorney Fontenot was extremely patient when explaining the law and processes. No matter how many times I called, texted or emailed he always made himself readily available and answered all our questions with the necessary details for our clear understanding. Attorney Fontenot never gave up fighting for my son and our family. Every single time he went to court for my son he gave it all he had and then some. His representation was well worth every red penny that was sacrificed and paid. I highly recommend Attorney Jerry Fontenot because of his high integrity, dedication and commitment to justice.

05 Aug, 2021 by Kc

My husband and I had consulted with the attorneys here. I must say, they did a stellar job. Before getting on the call, they were prepared: they had reviewed all of our paperwork and was able to provide very useful advice as to what steps we should take to get our matter resolved. Before consulting with the firm, I had plenty of restless nights, but after consulting with them, I was able to sleep again. They gave us peace of mind. We love them. They are very knowledgeable in what they do.

In my initial meeting with Mrs. Zeringue I was met with professionalism, yet kindness, and understanding. Mrs. Zeringue listened intently while I was explaining my current situation. Her calmness and confidence won me over immediately. She was very informative, and lead me through the process with understanding and compassion. Her entire staff was available at all times, and calmed my fears. I can't even begin to express my gratitude for Mrs. Zeringue's outstanding representation of my case. I highly recommend Zeringue & Associates and her team for their abundant knowledge of their expertise in their field of law.

Peggy Vallejo is a great attorney. She handled my divorce for me in a very professional manner. My ex-husband had what was supposed to be a "shark" of an attorney, but Peggy Vallejo did not let that deter her. She stood up for me and got me everything I wanted and more in the divorce. I highly recommend Peggy Vallejo and The Vallejo Law Firm.

15 Jul, 2015 by Jeffery

Peggy was extremely helpful and supportive during my divorce. She was upfront and honest with me which I appreciated but also respected my decisions. She represented me well in a very trying circumstance. She also worked for my father and prepared the documents dealing with the inheritance me and my siblings received when he passed away. Again, Peggy was very professional and supportive during another very trying time in my life and the life of my family. I highly recommend her.

29 Jun, 2015 by Alison

I've known Peggy Vallejo professionally for many years and have worked with her on several projects. She is a competent, knowledgeable, hardworking attorney who will work tirelessly to protect her clients' interests and diligently seek the answers they need. She is compassionate and loyal to those she represents, and will honestly present the facts and options available under any circumstance.

I recently hired Mr. Burns to represent me in my child support/custody case . I had consulted with other local attorneys in the area before meeting with Erik . While they seemed disinterested in what I had to say , Erik immediately said he would take my case. From the very beginning , I could tell how passionate he is about what he does ! He treated me like more than just another client . He treated me like a friend or a family member. I could really tell he cared . Erik kept me informed through every step of the process and was always there to answer any questions I had . He and his secretary were always available for me whenever I called or emailed them ! Erik was extremely diligent in researching every aspect of my case to ensure he got me the best possible results . Erik fought for me and my daughter every step of the way , without fail ! Erik not only won my case for me but he got me even more than I had initially expected . If you are looking for an attorney that will fight for you and your family like he would fight for his own then Erik Burns is the attorney for you ! I promise you that you will not be disappointed !!!!

Erik is great at what he does! He is incredibly professional and thorough and always responds in a timely manner. He has helped our family through more than he will ever know. If you ever need an attorney, he is your guy!

28 Nov, 2017 by Nicole tassin pourciau

I wanted to take an opportunity to write a review for Erik Burns. He represented me in 2012 for a child custody hearing. Erik fought zealously for my rights as a parent and for my daughter, researching and working beyond the scope of his engagement. He was able to get excellent information on record, as well. I am fortunate to have had Erik as my attorney and proud to call him my friend. Now that I am a Tulane graduate in General Legal Studies and a competent paralegal, I can intelligently comment and praise Erik in his professionalism and efforts. He wrote an amazing motion and was very thorough in his details covering the facts and enumerating the legal issues at hand before the court. Even though we lost, it wasn't because Erik wasn't awesome, didn't do his job or because he dropped the ball. It was because we had a prejudiced judge, plain and simple. And sadly, that happens, but losing does NOT deter me from confidently recommending Erik or from praising his valiant efforts. A non-biased judge would have made a different call.

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.

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.
