I have filed a formal complaint with the Texas Bar. It has been 6 months and she STILL has not returned my remaining retainer or sent me my file, both of which are required. She took forever to finish the work (months and months), her work product was ok, but the biggest issue is how she played bait-and-switch on the cost. Once she had my retainer, suddenly I wasn't worth her time and it was pulling teeth getting her to respond. The total was way more than we discussed. Since I put a retainer down, she already had my money. When I tried to discuss these charges, she was extremely short and wouldn't even discuss it. Some specifics: - She charged me for emails that never occurred - She charged me $35 for each invoice, and charged me for the automated email that told me there was an invoice. - She forgot to attach a document to an email (which she charged me for), then charged me again for the follow up email with the attachment - Worst of all, she asked me if I wanted to do more work. I said no, and that I wanted to just stick to the original agreement. She asked me to sign a form saying that she offered me and I declined. I didn't think anything of it, so I told her I would. She charged me for all of those call/emails where she was trying to upsell me, and charged me for drafting the letter unrelated to my original services. I refused extra services, but she found a way to get money out of me anyway ($600+ for extra services I declined) Rwan fits that negative lawyer stereotype. She is the queen of nickel and dime and bait-and-switch.

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.

Rwan is an excellent attorney. She is very thorough and responsive. She actually was in a position where she could have made more money at my expense but did not. She gets results! Highly recommended!

Rwan is very professional and her client are her top priority. I received a parking violation that came with a hefty fine and Rwan knew exactly what to do. She immediately sent a letter on my behalf and I never heard from that company again. She's thorough and proficient and I respect her as an attorney.

We have engaged Mrs. Hardesty on a number of occasions to review our copy, claims and tag lines. Her research has always been through, her reports clear and the recommendations on how best to proceed well thought out . We recommend Mrs. Hardesty, her work is excellent, meets deadlines and her rates are reasonable.

Rwan helped us change our custody agreement with my husbands ex wife when our son came to live with us. Her price was very reasonable, her response time was lightening fast, and we didn't have to step into the court house! We were 100% satisfied with the whole process!! Rwan will be our go to for any legal needs.

I was represented by Mrs Hardesty on a separation agreement settlement with my employer. She was thorough, professional and fierce! I was in good hands from the moment she began speaking with my employers attorney until the settlement was signed and even until I began my new position. She made sure I was protected, my rights were not violated and reputation was not tarnished. After the settlement the other lawyer even complimented her on her skills and legal savvy. I recommend having her in your corner, regardless of the issue she will represent you impeccably.

Rwan Hardesty was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. She did an excellent job for a great price when I had my will re-done. She even added some documents that I didn't ask for because my former estate planner had missed them. I would recommend her services to anyone.
