I met Jesse over 10 years ago and hired her as my attorney this past year. She genuinely cares about her clients, thorough in all her cases and makes sure you understand and know what’s going on in your case. I hired her for a POCS case and she got it dismissed for me! She stayed in touch with me throughout the entire process, made sure I knew what was going on and ALWAYS answered any questions I had- no matter how small they seemed. I will always recommend her to anyone and everyone! She has an uplifting spirit that comforts you no matter how scary the court process seems to you! She is the absolute best! I recommend to her any and everyone!

Jessi Garza is a great attorney. I had the privilege of obtaining her services about a month ago. I was unfortunately arrested for charges that I thought would never go away. When I first met Ms Garza I was able to watch her work and she seemed to know her way around the court room. She was very honest and to the point and very courteous and professional. So when I was able to obtain her as an attorney I knew I had the right person fighting for me with out a doubt. When she would consult with me it was to the point and very honest. She never left you in the dark or guessing. She always made sure you knew what was going on and what her game plan was. It was just very comfortable dealing with her. She kept me at ease in a situation that normally I would be nervous. She definitely lived up to my expectations because she was able on the first day of court to have my charges dropped. For that I was grateful to her. All I can say is if u ever need an honest, caring, courteous, and very professional attorney you need to call Jessi Garza. If this review is not convincing enough then hire her and see for yourself, trust me you won’t be disappointed. Jessi Garza is AWESOME!!!

Another time I was falsely accused of a car accident when I wasn’t even in town! T.Mingledorff got the supporting video footage and resolved the matter with the police directly.

Tommy secured rapid justice for me! He proved to be both highly responsive and very effective. I was facing a lawsuit where I had been misidentified as the defendant. I first reached out to him on a Saturday and he contacted me directly within minutes. His calm, steady professionalism and friendly manner put me at ease in a very stressful and unfamiliar situation. Even though Tommy usually works with plaintiffs in personal injury cases, he didn't spare a minute in getting to work on my case and communicated with me regularly through to the end -- I always knew what was going on and understood our plan. He knew exactly what to do to get my case dismissed, and resolved the matter for me in only a few days! Tommy is man of great integrity and compassion, and you will not find a better lawyer.

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 :)

I was nervous about choosing an attorney. I haven't ever needed one. I was also surprised at the retainer that most attorneys charge. Xalli Gonzales allowed a payment plan that worked with my income. What I really liked is that she explained how billing works with an attorney who charges an hourly rate. She knew I was tight on money. I was never surprised by a bill because she discussed it with me each step of the way. I was also nervous about showing up to court. Mrs. Gonzales made me feel very comfortable and at ease. Everything was resolved promptly and painlessly.

I had an attorney who did nothing for me but lose my right to see my son. I fired the old and hired Xalli Gonzales. She wasn't the cheapest but she explained exactly what she intended to do and put me on a payment plan that I could live with. We recently had our final hearing and she won back my standard visitations with my son. I don't know what I would have done without her. My other attorney showed up to my final hearing with a motion to withdraw. Xalli was there, took over the case, and we won everything back. On responsiveness I didn't rate her as excellent because it takes her about 24 hours to return a call. But it is actually HER that calls and not an assistant so I guess that is still pretty good.

Sally Bybee represented me in a difficult and messy divorce, and I really appreciate the way she helped me get through it. My divorce was one very long emotional roller coaster for me. My ex and I could agree on very little and the situation felt like it was exploding on every front. We even walked out of mediation at one point. But Sally never got bogged down in the turmoil and she didn’t let me lose focus either. She knew from the start that my kids were my highest priority and she never let me lose sight of that. Ultimately, I just wanted a fair outcome that was in the best interests of my children, but it’s easy to become emotionally and mentally scattered in the midst of a battle. Sally’s direct, no-nonsense approach helped me stay focused on the goal and not waste my time or energy wallowing in emotions. She knew how to rein me back in, offering practical information and wise counsel. I never felt judged or pushed, and I always knew she was truly on my side. She was patient with me, but never let me miss a deadline that could hurt our case. After it was finally all over, I knew choosing Sally to represent me was absolutely the right decision. She is very straightforward, gets right to the point and made it easy for me to understand my options. She gave me the information I needed to be confident in my decisions and let me set the course.

When my marriage fell apart and I needed to file for a divorce, I talked to several attorneys. I knew my situation was unusually complicated and that I was going to be facing some extremely tough opposition. The first few attorneys I spoke to thought I was exaggerating and didn’t seem to take my concerns seriously. Once I met Sally Bybee, I knew I had found the right attorney to represent my interests. She really listened to me and I felt like she understood what I was saying. She was empathetic and concerned, and she got to work immediately. From the start, Sally nailed down the facts and created a tactical plan for getting the job done. She took a very direct approach and pursued our goals very aggressively every step of the way. Because my ex-husband and I could not communicate rationally about anything, Sally had to work hard to keep things on track. She was persistent and focused, and truly exceptional. For me, the process was grueling and emotional, but Sally never got flustered or bogged down in the mess. My divorce dragged on for about a year and half, and there were times when I thought it would never be settled and over. Sally was a great source of support and strength throughout the process, and really helped me get through it all. She was absolutely able to handle all the details, and her communication with me was always clear and timely. I never felt like I didn’t know what was going on or what we were doing. One of the things I appreciated most was that Sally always chose the higher ground. She stuck to the facts and she knew how to apply the law, and never let the extreme emotions I was feeling throw us off course. I have had the opportunity to refer several other people to Sally, and I tell them she’s a real pistol and she’s the one they want to get it done right.

When I needed a family law attorney, I asked another lawyer I knew to recommend someone. He suggested I meet Sally Bybee and spoke very highly of her. He told me she was especially well-suited to handle my delicate situation with some complicated child custody issues. The single most important issue for me was my daughter and protecting my rights and relationship with her. Sally made sure all our bases were covered, and she really put me in control of the situation. She knew how to get just the right paperwork pulled together in a hurry when my ex-wife was ready to sign. We didn’t waste any time or opportunities, and I know if it wasn’t for Sally, I would still be fighting for custody and spending a fortune in the process. Sally helped keep things moving along as cooperatively as possible. She has the experience to stand up to intimidation from the other side, and she fights a good battle on behalf of her client. She handled all aspects of the case very thoroughly, and prepared me for each phase so I knew what to expect. Her insights helped me feel prepared and able to hang on for the long haul. Her years of experience are an important factor and that was reassuring to me. She was always very well prepared for court, and I think that gave us a clear advantage. She told me what I could realistically expect to achieve, and provided guidance that helped me rise above the emotions I was feeling. Her approach was direct and focused and it made all the difference in the end.

Mr. Hacker was honest about the process and informed me of his strategy from the beginning of my case. He answered the phone himself (not the paralegal) or returned my calls and/or responded to my emails in a timely manner. He was able to navigate the process throughout my hearing day that was supposed to end in temporary orders to final orders, which was amazing to witness and was a huge savings in time and money. In addition, he gave me great advice on where we should focus monetarily since my ex was also very behind on child support plus our decree was based on my ex living in California. I am impressed by his ability to stay calm but also be aggressive in a respectful manner. His main concern was what was at the best interest of my child. He is also divorced and has children, so he understands the emotional impact of divorce on the parents and children.

When I first met Mr. Hacker I was a mess. I was in a very mentally fragile state and had a hard time focusing. I was in a Divorce that had really taken a toll on me and I was ready to just walk away from it all. Mr Hacker gave me hope and was able to help me through a process I did not think I had the strength to get through. In the end he was able to get me a fair settlement. Actually about 10x what I was originally asking for. He helped me see what I thought I should get was actually not what he thought I deserved. Mr Hacker could not have been more professional. He always returned emails and calls promptly. I do not believe you could put your trust in a better person or law firm through this tough process. He helped ease me into arbitration a process I did not think I was up to either. I could not really put into words how much he did for me. Not just coming out with a great settlement but a stronger person too. I will forever be grateful for Mr. Hacker and Tina did for me. If you are looking for a great divorce lawyer in San Antonio, I would recommend Hacker Law Firm! Thank you!

April 15, 2012 I was arrested for a DWI. I had a history of DWI convictions. The District Attorney was ruthless. I was on Parole and could not bond out. I went to trial and was found NOT GUILTY on April 2, 2015. Yes, I was found NOT GUILTY after sitting in jail 2-1/2 years. I felt my neck under the boot of an impatient, Byzantine legal bureaucracy of Galveston County. The true blessing and hope was that I was in good hands with Tad Nelson and Amber Spurlock on my side. I was in the conservative court of Judge Lonnie Cox, which is said to favor the State. I was summoned to his chambers and was greeted by an Electric Chair sitting next to the photo of him and his bride. One could not feel any less comfortable. The Galveston Police officer had a story and so did I. Both stories conflicted each other. Tad Nelson listened to every word I had to say and he asked all the right questions. Tad and his team did their research, and did a great job doing so. Thanks to Amber Spurlock with Tad Nelson, we won! I am forever grateful for all the attention he gave me and the fact that she paid attention to what I had to say. I tell everyone I know about Amber Spurlock and Tad Nelson because of their great work. It was a very stressful time and Amber was there for me. A case like this is very hard to win, but I believed in myself and more important my lawyer Amber Spurlock. -Jeff Walters

I recently hired Amber to defend myself in a very difficult situation. Amber put me at ease and thoroughly researched my case. When in trial she was well prepared, opportunistic and demonstrated excellent courtroom skills. Her judgment and performance were excellent. I highly recommend her for defense matters.

Amber is an unbelievable asset to have represent you. She is well spoken and extremely professional. Her greatest strength has to be her ability to extend her knowledge of the ever changing state and federal laws; while also becoming familiar with a multitude of other industries. For example, Amber has an understanding of the scientific/chemical engineering involved with the collection of physical evidence. She attends hands-on classes and seminars where she gains extensive knowledge regarding proper procedures and the science involved. She is diligent in her research and I believe there is not one area of concern she will not address with same intensity for the strict purpose of identifying all angles in your case.

Adam has a strong eye for detail and thought outside-the-box for options to resolve my case as quickly and efficiently as possible. When you speak with Adam there is no fluff involved. No time wasted, I really liked this aspect of our interaction. There has to be something said to the fact he also keeps his cool when his clients maybe don't keep their cool.

I went to Leigh for help in my divorce after my husband committed adultery and moved out of the country, leaving me with our four young daughters. I was shaken, afraid and felt powerless. Leigh not only fought for me, but gave me the confidence in my position that empowered me to ask for the real dollar amount that I needed in order to take care of my family, and I got it! Leigh went above and beyond. She was always available when I had questions. She was very attentive, very knowledgable and very professional. I highly recommend her.

She provides quality attention to your case. She is patient and I think she cares! If I ever need her again for any family legal services, I would definitely contact her again !

I was referred to Leigh Cummings Dubose by another lawyer in Georgetown, TX. to handle my divorce proceedings. Once I scheduled the meeting and met with her face to face, I knew instantly she was very good at what she does. She gives you her undivided attention when you meet with her, she gives her advice/feedback in a very confident way, and at the end, she will help strategize with you to give you the best options going forward. Outside of our meetings, she always managed to answer my emails, even when she is on vacation! I would highly recommend Leigh Cummings Dubose for any family law matter as she is first-class all the way!

I've used Ashley Morgan at Kirker Davis for several family law issues. I found her to be smart as hell, compassionate, hard working, and she posesses a great attention to detail. When I was initially seeking representation a few years ago, most of the attorneys I spoke to immediately suggested we go to war with the other side. Ashley listened to my goals, led the charge on an amicable divorce, even when the opposing parties were difficult, and the result was a legal bill that felt fair.

I had to consult Mr. Cerf when my own attorney was not providing me clear information and options. He explained the situation with my case in civilian terms and provided excellent advice for how to proceed, and pointed me in the right direction of which questions to ask. I wish I had hired him in the first place and would certainly recommend him in the future.

Going through a divorce, you will feel empty as you watch your life fall apart. It's isolating and embarrassing all at the same time. The people that once encircled your life start to disappear for a while; distanced if they do speak to you. There's hardly not anything more alienating than that position. Larry is a fantastic lawyer. I'm sure there are more "crafty" or cunning lawyers speckled throughout the whole marketplace, but it is in these times that you will need someone to be your companion along the way. Too many lawyers treat you like the transaction that you are to them. That's not what you want. For your mental peace and your healing process, you will need someone to not only defend you in your battles but give you the guidance on what's coming up ahead. The most important thing about Larry is that he answers you, and he answers with such clarity. In my experience, he was so much more than fair that it just seemed like things were too good to be true with him. Don't even think that for a moment. He's the real deal, a real help and a real human being. God bless that man for everything he's done. Such heart in what he does, and believe me when I say that you aren't going to find that anywhere else.

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.
