I recently had an issue with a law firm regarding a $300 consultation deposit that never occurred. Despite my attempts to resolve the matter, I've only received the runaround. This experience raises serious concerns about their reliability and trustworthiness, particularly when considering the complexity and importance of legal proceedings. If a firm can't handle something as straightforward as returning a deposit, how can one trust them with more intricate legal matters? I would caution others to think twice before engaging with this firm for legal services. It's important to do your due diligence and perhaps ask if others have had similar experiences. Proceed with caution.

Mr. Eggert did everything possible for the best outcome for my family. It was not an easy task, he dismissed one case and kept our loved one from staying in jail on another. Only regret was not hiring him quicker for a different charge. Thank you so much!!!

Please go see Mikel Eggart if you need an attorney. He had us in and out and a check ready so fast! Everything went fast, smooth, and professional. He always communicated with us via phone, or email. He answered all our questions, explained everything and listened about anything we wanted to talk to him about. I am so thankful for him and his staff! Our travel from Georgetown to Austin was worth it! He is the best person/attorney I've met in a long time! Jessica

Any parent or person involved in a situation of divorce/custody understands how stressful and frustrating the whole process can be. This firm from the very beginning in consultation through to completing my case just made the whole process a lot less painful. I never did not know what was going on or where we were at in the process. As a father I appreciate the collective efforts and hard work of everyone in this office very much. I highly recommend this firm to anyone who is in need of representation that cares and fights for their clients.

My family and I have worked with Massingill Attorneys & Counselors at Law a few times over the past few years with our Estate Planning, Trust and other situations. They are always very responsive to our needs and timelines, and quick to point out options that could benefit us in the future.
Outside of being extremely knowledgeable, it brings my family a lot of peace to know that Josh and his team have made sure we have covered all the bases. I might also point out that they are THE MOST TRUSTWORTHY group I have every worked with. It's refreshing to spend time with attorneys who really do have your best interest at heart and not just their own. Thank you Massingill A&C at Law!

I was charged with an assault family member case last year and initially hired an attorney to represent me. However, I felt misrepresented due to poor communication and things not moving forward—I had no idea what was going on with my case.
That completely changed when I decided to work with Mr. Kevin Bennett. From day one, he provided me with far more information and updates about my case, including the police report, 911 call, and prosecutor’s notes—things my previous attorney never shared with me. What I appreciated most about working with Mr. Bennett was that he personally handled my case and kept me informed every step of the way.
Thanks to his dedication and expertise, my case was dismissed. I sincerely hope to never find myself in a similar situation again, but if I or any of my friends or family ever need a great attorney, without a doubt, I will call Mr. Bennett.

After speaking to a few different attorneys regarding my case, I knew that Kevin was the right fit for me. Kevin was extremely responsive, professional, and showed genuine interest in my case. It was apparent that Kevin is extremely motivated and has a wealth of experience in dealing with criminal cases. I cannot thank Kevin enough for assisting me in getting my Public Intoxication charge dismissed in a timely manner. Thank you.

Ted has been our family attorney for years. When I was diagnosed with leukemia, Ted helped us draft a will that allowed me to go forward with treatment, knowing my family would be taken care of in case I succumbed. Thankfully, I am now cancer free.
Ted also helped us with a legal matter regarding our son and our school district. He was professional, knowledgeable, and an excellent advocate for us.
I have known Ted before I knew him as a lawyer - I taught his daughter in Middle School, and through that, I got to know this outstanding, compassionate man.
I am honored to know him, and glad that he has been there when my family needed him.

I was already receiving child support, but I needed an attorney to help fight for my daughter’s rights. Her father was trying to end child support by terminating his parental rights along with doing a modification. This was heartbreaking and an emotional rollercoaster for me. Kimberly is very knowledgeable, she guided me, and helped me not feel stressed out. I appreciated the time Kimberly and Taylor would give me to respond to all my emails and answer my questions. You want someone who knows the family law, who is passionate and understanding then Law Office of Kimberly Shanklin is the team to hire. You won’t regret it! Thank you ladies for everything you did for Zoey and me.

Kimberly and Taylor did an amazing job in my divorce. Unfortunately mine was very nasty and very complexed . I highly recommend hiring her for all your family or criminal law needs . It finally got finalized after 5 months of arguing back and forth with my now ex wife. Kimberly was able to get us to agree without having to go to mediation. She is one of the best in Denton county hands down! She will make sure she fights hard for all her clients and to get the best possible outcome for all her client’s!

I hired Jimmy to handle my agreed divorce. Initially we met for a consultation and I immediately felt that he was the right person to help me with this process. He was very down to earth but highly skilled in the technical aspects of family law. He understood my desire to keep things amicable andconsulting me on all available options. Jimmy's communication was detailed and he suggested various points to consider to arrive at the most advantageous outcome. The entire team (Dina, Katy and Roxi) were all very friendly, responsive and helpful. Together the team made a difficult process as painless as possible.

I had a positive experience with this firm. Recommended by a friend, I trusted them with my first accident case. They were patient, kind, and caring to me.

Our family was faced with a serious and stressful legal matter, and we knew we needed a skilled and experienced team to guide us through it. The Pink Law Firm team exceeded our expectations. With over 20 years of experience, professionalism, and genuine care, they were exactly what we needed. They communicated effectively, kept us informed throughout the process, and delivered on every promise they made.
Attorney Augustin Pink demonstrated an incredible understanding of the facts and handled our criminal cases seamlessly. His preparation, remarkable judgment, and strong legal strategy led to a victorious outcome—our cases were DISMISSED.
Attorney Clement Pink's courtroom strategy was equally impressive. His relentless approach applied significant pressure on the opposing side. He argued fiercely for our rights and protections, displaying both brilliance and ruthlessness. Thanks to his skill and determination, we WON.
I am forever grateful for everything the Pink Law Firm did for my family. Their expertise and dedication were invaluable, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.

I am Totally disappointed in This Law Firm. I have not met 1 person to this date. Unacceptable of the treatment. I've lost my job due to going out for surgery and no one is able to be contacted. No answered calls. My injury was 06/27/2022. I was not in my best interest, no lost wages was considered. My release forms was signed 06/24/2024 and I am still waiting on my part of wages owed to me. I cannot get in touch with anyone, It's as if they took my money and ran with it. The answering service just tells me that they cannot get in touch with anyone and that they will have someone call me back which never happens. It's almost 6 months of the release forms and no one will call on exception of Barbara and she states that she is unable to reach Lorena who told me that it will take less than 3 months for everything because they did not do my Loss of wages as they said they would.. I am sitting here no.help, no job and still with injuries. I.made a visit up to the office since I've never met anyone, the office was closed in which I was told that the person was out on Maternity Leave.I am not satisfied with the services. Poor services and where is my money. We are going towards 3 years since the injury and Nothing.

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.

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.

- 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.
