Attorney Fernando is an expert of immigration matters and knows all the steps and stages inside out. I highly recommend you to entrust him with your naturalization. He will tell you what to expect as well as help you prepare all the paperwork and interview questions. Fernando has been super thorough, precise and handled my Naturalization process absolutely marvelously. He guided me with the best instructions, which made my Naturalization go smoothly without any hiccups or issues. He made me feel at ease for the Naturalization interview (especially during the waiting period right before being called in.) He worked though all my questions and my apprehensive concerns. Thanks a million Fernando in guiding me through my naturalization journey. I just couldn't have done with him!

Kip Patterson and Victoria Lui are respective colleagues of mine and I can confidently vouch for each of them as excellent counsel. Both are incredibly knowledgable in their own field, and represent their clients faithfully with passion. If any of my clients require litigation services in the Houston area Baker & Patterson is who I refer them to.

Mr. Calzada was available by email and I could even call his cell phone. He talked to me like a real person. He spent the time to explain my case and walked me through what was needed from me and what to expect. His offices were that of a very expensive high end attorney, but he never talked down to me. I always felt at ease. When we finally went to court, he tore the other side to shreds. He was 100% at ease in court. It made me feel confident. I was VERY happy with my result. I strongly recommend him to anyone in need of a family attorney. Worth every penny.

Sam is an excellent attorney who is very knowledgeable about family law. Although we weren't able to find the finances to secure his services he was able to guide me to the necessary forms needed for my case. He is a wonderful person who cares about his clients and takes time to listen to what you want to accomplish in your case and makes sure to let you know he is behind you 100% and ready to fight for you. He was able to give me valuable information that no other attorney would and for that, I am forever grateful.

I don't even know where to start with the amazing and caring service I got from this firm. Deanna and Paula were absolutely amazing. My divorce case was not an easy one at all from all aspects and Weinman & associates were there for me every day, every moment, every morning and evening. These ladies are truly angels and they saved me from being down and feeling the pain of going through a divorce. I was provided with all the info and data I needed at anytime, I had a direct line via text and calls to my lawyer at any moment. My case ended pretty quick and that is really thanks to Deanna's support and consultation she provided me daily and weekly. The process was very clear and this firm really feels like a family during the hardest times! I will recommend this firm to anyone who is in need of family law support, and especially Deanna! Miracles do happen and they made my life much easier and calm to head toward new start! Thank you so much girls!

Daryl Weinman is just an amazing attorney! She is super smart, very knowledgeable in family law (believe me, there are family law attorneys who aren’t), super efficient, and very helpful. I have experience working with other family law attorneys. I’m super glad I have switched to Ms. Weinman. It was worth every penny!!! A lot of lawyers charge the same, however, they are not even close to Daryl’s expertise!

I had been living abroad for quite a few years and had many dealings with immigration attorneys and almost as many bad experiences. When it came time to apply for my family's American visa's I expected an equally expensive, time consuming run around experience. To my great surprise and relief I can offer the following testimony about Mr. Cate's professional services. He told me what it would cost, how long it would take, what I had to do and what I should expect. When it was all done, he was correct in all of his projections and we did not have to resubmit paperwork or deal with a recall or second, third or fourth trip. He is very thorough and detail oriented and believe me when I tell you if he asks you for a document, no matter how difficult or time consuming it is in getting it, it will save you from pain and suffering in the long run. He knows his business!

Brad and his team helped me complete my divorce that had complex international and extenuating circumstances attached. Brad’s knowledge of Texas Divorce Law was second to none. He dealt with the court appearances with courtesy and grace whilst providing solid, respectful and expert counter arguments to opposing council. As a result of this my only key demand, full custody of my at risk child, was met with little opposition from opposing council. The whole team were incredible and competitively priced. Will work with The Wright Law Firm again for any future legal requirements.

Brad (and Jeff) substituted in after a long drawn out process after filing (8 months) that got virtually NOWHERE with my previous attorney because she was MIA in both response time and counsel! Not only did Brad jump in, assess the situation and the proposed agreement my spouse and I had come to (absent counsel from previous attorney). Brad thoughtfully considered and acknowledged the spirit of what we were trying to accomplish, provided insight into potential drawbacks or areas of recommended clarification and focused exclusively on clarification of language vs. exorbitant revisions to the settlement documents (to put his mark on it) that would have further delayed finalization. He was knowledgeable, professional, responsive and diligent (as was Jeff)-I highly recommend him.

I knew I wanted to hire Brad right after my initial consultation. I was going back to court for the second time over my child possession agreement and felt like I didn't have any options. Brad came to the table with three different effective solutions and took the time to explain in detail what each one meant. We were supplied a revised document from my x that had many holes in it. Brad took the time to explain why we had to add certain notes and even the smallest detail is crucial when protecting my rights. I learned more from him in a month than I had in 2 years with my last attorney. I'd highly recommend him.

I highly recommend Rwan Hardesty for anyone seeking an effective, fair, honest, and hard-working lawyer. Rwan represented me in a very tough civil case involving defamation. Not many lawyers are willing to take on defamation cases as they are hard to win on either side and laws/rules/procedures around this topic are constantly changing and developing. If you believe your case to be beyond the realm of Rwan’s “normal services”, check in with her and see, she’ll give you an honest opinion/recommendation. My case lasted for a couple of years and even involved an appeal. Rwan is honest, fair, effective and always open to hear and listen to my concerns (no matter how bizarre and type A of concerns they were). Beyond that, she is highly intellectual and discovered (through her many hours of work) several loopholes, clauses, etc that assisted my case. Rwan helped to make this experience a smoother and more affordable one for me and I cannot stress enough how honest and hardworking this woman is, ready to respond and communicate at all times. She’s a real shark, but a nice one! She won EVERY SINGLE case/motion against me, including in appeals court. Rwan Hardesty was recommended to me by a lawyer family member and I am highly satisfied with not only the outcome of my case, but my overall experience as a client with the Hardesty law firm.

Mr. Sykes helped my fiance and I divert a custody train wreck. My fiance's antagonistic ex-wife had denied visitation, disappeared with their daughters, re-arranged the cars on her driveway when she left to force him to park on a dangerous street, and demanded he call the cops (in spite of a pandemic). My fiance went months without seeing his daughters during their divorce, and she has attempted to deny visitation in years past, but we've always been able to get a civil standby to convince her otherwise... but not this time. We were preparing to file a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus and Emergency Motion for Return of Child[ren], which would have opened a very contentious and expensive can of worms, when Mr. Sykes gave us very specific and strategic advice to put the lid back on an explosive situation. Long story short... hell froze over, and she apologized. She also offered to make up the time. We hope this is the last time we'll need Mr. Sykes legal guidance for custody matters, but if we do, we know it will be money well spent (or saved! Depending on how you look at it). :) We highly recommend!

Donna Hernandez represented me in a divorce several years ago. It was a tough one with many difficult issues, but it all turned out great. I now have my son with me and life is good. I don't think I could have gotten through it without her.

I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Radney from Burt Barr & Associates L.L.P. I hired him on a personal injury case and he was amazing! While working on my case I can't express enough how much his ability to explain things from our first conversation helped calm the anxiety I had during this time in my life. He is super knowledgeable accompanied with humbleness and compassion making him a class act in my opinion! By the end of my case I felt more like family than a client, always welcomed by Mr. Radney and his staff anytime I called, texted or emailed. I would refer anyone looking for a credible law firm and an excellent attorney in Mr. Radney, to reach out without hesitation and you will be glad you did. The number is 214-943-0012 and ask for Luke!

I had a very rocky journey after my automobile accidents where I fired 4 attorneys before hiring Luke because the previous ones treated me like a number on their worksheet. Some of them did the wrong work and some of them just did not bother to work on my case at all. I also asked a friend to give me a personal injury referral before Luke and little did I know I was mocked as "a troubled client" for hiring 4 attornies without bothering to understand my circumstance. When I found Luke, he was courteous, sympathetic & professional. He listened to my story and knew exactly how to help me with my situation. What I really liked about my experience with Luke is he kept you informed every step of the way (unlike those 4) and wants you to be involved in the process to ensure accuracy. In addition, he's just a really good person that cares about his clients. It's really heartwarming to know that there are good lawyers out there, even though they are so rare! I highly recommend Luke without limitation for his professional expertise. How he carries himself and how he treats others as a legal expert via my experience most definitely proved that he is someone you can trust to help you get the best results possible.

Mr. Harris is very personable, approachable and has a good relationship with the courts. This is a plus if you are dealing with sensible soon to be ex’es who want to move on and act like adults. But he is also a staunch, steadfast and passionate advocate when you are dealing with a case like mine. He is a bull when confronting non-reasonable people. He is no push over. When the other side tried to use coercive tactics, Mr.Harris pushed back! There were periods where I would be in disbelief on how well this Lawyer carried himself ! He is the gentlest yet strongest person I've ever met. He was extremely passionate as he vigorously spoke up to the Court. Mr. Harris later told me that they were trying to take advantage of me and that he was NOT going to allow that. I was touched. That was confirmation that he truly cares about his client's and not just your check book. If you are looking for someone who is looking out for your best interest and willing to actually listen to your needs and your worries during difficult situations, and get results , then this is the right attorney for you. He also provides you his contact information where he can be reached at all times unlike most attorneys who you’ll leave a voicemail for and never get a return phone call for sometimes one or two days which can be very frustrating. I would highly recommend William Harris. Thank you again for all your Help Mr.Harris you truly are the Best Sir.

He was very meticulous, ethical and found the best way to settle our father's estate in a manner satisfactory to all involved. He was easy to communicate with and I would highly recommend him for any estate issues. I am extremely grateful he was able to walk us through a very emotional time in a very cost effective manner.

In a time when my husband and I were left devastated by a crime that he had committed and while other consulted lawyers described his case as desolate because of his early confession upon arrest, Christy Jack and Letty Martinez provided perspective and comfort. They were both prepared to utilize his confession as a mark of integrity and we felt confident in their defense and plan from the beginning. Letty spent careful and valuable time explaining the process of litigation, never once showing frustration to a repeated question or concern. Not in any circumstance did she assume we would understand the intricacies of the law and proceedings, taking diligence to ensure we were comfortable and confident in their decision making. While it is obvious by their notable careers that we were not their only clients, they never stopped fighting for us as if we were. They were never tempted to settle for less than probation, despite a nearly 4 year process including a global pandemic, unexpected changes in Judges and their other pressing cases. We never felt like a burden or less than worthy of their hard work. I assure you, Letty Martinez is not your average lawyer. Even during her own medical emergency, Letty continued to demonstrate her faithfulness to my husband and his case. Their commitment to my husband didn't stop after a grand slam win in the courtroom. They continued to fight for him and he was released from jail 45 days early! While I hope to never need Letty Martinez's services again, the team at Varghese and Summersett will forever have my favor, recommendation and respect.

Letty helped me with phone calls to get my wife out of jail on a blue warrant that was no-billed when the charge was no-billed. She still help even though she no longer represented my wife since the case was closed. She went above and beyond to help me do what i needed to get done to help get my wife home. I would recommend her to anybody that needs a lawyer to represent them. If we need great lawyer we will definitely retain her again.

I interviewed several lawyers after my first attorney charged me a lot of money and barely worked on my case! Melisa absolutely cared about me and my situation! She understands Texas Family law and on more than one occasion quickly responded to me with information. She has a strong yet calming personality which is exactly the kind of person you want when going through such a difficult situation.

I found myself in the unfortunate situation of being served a petition from one of those aggressive family lawyers. I met with Grady and hired him to defend me in this matter. Grady took the time to fully understand the case and its nuances, and we met and discussed various legal strategies. The case took about a year to resolve due to various complicating factors including an overlapping issue in another court system that could have had corollary effects on the family case. Throughout this time, Grady was unflappable. With his knowledge of the family law system and significant experience, Grady helped me navigate the various choices throughout the process. Additionally, Grady collaborated well with other attorneys helping to bridge the gap in styles. His approach was very practical given his knowledge of what might work or not work depending on the circumstances. He conducted himself with a high degree of integrity and was never looking to do extra work just to over-bill me (which is oftentimes the case with divorce attorneys). I am forever thankful for his work.

Like many other families, we were faced with decisions that we really didn’t think we would need to make… my Dad’s dementia was deepening and my Mom, his Caretaker, was beginning to rapidly fail herself. It came to the point I knew my Dad needed more care than what my Mom was capable of providing. It needed to be done quickly and correctly. Frankly, I was worried my Mom would pass before my Dad. My parents are retired school-teachers. That means they are not rich, but they do have income. It certainly means they do not have the money for Nursing Home care that my Dad needs, and for that matter, my Mom needed for him to have. I knew that trying to do the paper work and application for Medicaid was far beyond my ability and know-how. I recognized at that point we needed an Attorney to handle this for us. I looked for a nearby attorney and found Richard Shea. This was one of the best decisions made in this difficult junction of our lives. Richard reviewed everything carefully…. He answered questions timely… He worked as a partner with our family. We are so grateful we hired him…it turns out that one of the accounts my mom had saved money through her job, would have been at risk if we had made the application first. Richard identified the situation and made suggestions on how to restructure it, which we did. While the amounts would not seem large to most people with an IRA or Pension, it was huge for my mom, and meant a lot to her monthly income. This one detail, more than paid for Richard’s fee. My Dad is in a great facility. My Mom is able to relax and reclaim part of her life because she doesn’t have the heavy burden of caring for my father any longer. She can sleep at night and not have to worry if my Dad was going to get out of bed and turn on the stove and burn the house down! (He actually came close one time.) She is actually getting healthier. During her last check-up, her doctor told her he was pleased with her resurgent health. I cannot recommend Richard enough. He is well worth his fee since he will fill out the paperwork and handle the application process and deal with the questions from the Examiner. These are details that are nerve racking enough, let alone during a stressful time. If you are faced with these decisions, I recommend you hire Richard to handle the details. You have enough stress as it is, let him handle the part you that you are not an expert in handling. You will feel a lot better that you did.

Saw Richard on internet and consulted him and got immediate response. Laid out all the pros and cons for me. I decided he knew what he was doing and hired him right away. We were miles apart but he guided me step by step on how to proceed. Thanks again for your help. Could not have done it without you.

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.
