After consulting with very "high end" attorneys, I was referred to John. I went to the consultation and was very impressed with his knowledge and his desire to help me with my case. It was a long battle and of course I got worried, but in the end, John, with his skills and knowledge prevailed! And let me say the opposing attorney was a high dollar and feared by some counsel. So if you have a difficult case, I certainly would recommend John and Cathy (paralegal).

I can’t say enough about John and how amazing he is at what he does!!! I have referred him to a few of my friends and was referred to him by a good friend. Every one of us has come out a winner and we owe it all to John. He is not only good at what he does, he is the BEST!!!!

John won our case for our daughter..he aims to win...he is a good attorney..and he is well liked in the Collin County County system...He is a little overpriced but..if you want to win..he is the man..if you can tolerate the lady in the office who
conviently lost record of half of our payment..for John's ervices..She claims they got a new system for record keeping and when I was un happy about losing record of our payments..she became very rude with us..which is totally unacceptable...but if I wanted to win and had the extra bucks ..I would choose him again..and again,Hence he didnt get 5 stars due to his judgement in his staff selection

As you will probably read in the previous reviews John is everything that you expect from a competent attorney. He also told me straight up from the beginning that he is not the cheapest and actually gave me a good idea of what the total cost would be. As a father going through a custody case there were obviously a lot of one off situations and sensitive subjects that came up and John was able to walk me through everything. John was 100% committed to my case and was very straightforward in his dealings with me. As far as the 15 minute minimum billing increment previously stated, I was informed of this up front so it was not a surprise, I simply tried to limit my non-essential communications with him. (Thought this was common sense but maybe not..) Long story short John was able to win my case and get me 100% of everything I asked for primarily custody of my child which says a lot for a father in Texas, so if you are looking for someone to win your case and not just charge you the least set up a consultation with John.

I've been through two divorces with two separate attorneys unfortunately, but choosing John Pfister was the right choice for my 2nd divorce. John and his excellent staff took time to understand the nature of my case and the complications involved. John told me up front that he wasn't the cheapest attorney, but he generally gave his clients the best value in the end. He over-delivered in this respect. I highly recommend a consult with John if you are looking for a competent attorney with a top notch staff that follows through in a timely manner. My one tip for anyone going through a divorce is to do the legwork and homework on your end to the extent possible--in my case, John was completely comfortable in letting me do work instead of handing it to his staff. This produced an outcome that led to a settlement of the suit in a timely manner and at one third of the cost of my first divorce. Get a second opinion if you need to, but just make sure one of your consultations is with John Pfister.

John Pfister has been an exceptional family attorney for me during some seriously tumultuous times. My ex and I have gone through two different modifications (for reasons I will not go into). John overwhelmingly beat both attorneys both times and I now have primary custody of my son. #Fathersrights
A few times I was frustrated about the lack of communication but it turned out that the lack of communication was because there was nothing to tell me. Instead of billing me to tell me nothing he waited until we had a reason to talk. Many people want their attorney to hand-hold them through a very emotional time but that can get expensive. I appreciated that he looked out for my money as well as my child. My ex’s attorney charged her like she was a money printing press. She paid 3x more than I did and John and I had a 100% win in court for my child.
I read another review about John that said all he cared about was winning for his client; um…isn’t that the whole point of hiring him?? Overall he did everything I needed, he got my child everything he needed, he kept me calm throughout the process (even when I was anything but calm), and charged a fair price for an attorney of his caliber.
I highly recommend John Pfister and so do 2 of my friends who have had the same success with him.
