If you are looking for a family law attorney in Montgomery County, TX, you will find no one better than Jack Riley. Jack was referred to us by another Conroe family attorney who we found on Avvo, and considered, but he did not have the cycles for our case. This other attorney who referred Jack is not simply a friend, but a respected opponent. I didn't learn this until after the fact, and I now understand why he was recommended. After working with a number of attorneys and being disappointed, Jack Riley is by far the best. In addition to being smart and understanding family law, he is extremely responsive. Unlike other attorneys, Jack does not overload himself with cases, and this allows him to stay on top of things and keep you up-to-date on the status of the case. He's also compassionate, and is a true advocate. If you're tired of attorneys who don't follow through and put your case in jeopardy, hire Jack. I might be the best decision you have ever made especially if kids are involved.

Mr. Riley is a very experienced and professional attorney. I was referred to him by another attorney and have now utilized his expertise on two occasions. He is a consummate gentleman and is always consistent in keeping me updated on important developments, status of my position in the case as well as his personal recommendations based on 25 years of experience. I found him to be forthright and yet never even approaching an adversarial position. His expertise led my cases to a conclusion that was satisfactory to both parties represented and left no ill will on either side of the case. I would give him the highest possible evaluation score and will say without any reservation that Mr. Riley is the epitome of what I would refer to as an attorney that every client represented by him would feel comfortable, informed, confident, and satisfied.

Jack is honest, calm , to the point and carries a great reputation in his area of practice. He handled my divorce efficiently and kept in contact as needed.

Jack Riley is a very knowledgeable and experienced attorney. Jack is great with client communication; he is very thorough in gathering all the details in regards to your case. Jack is genuine and I very much appreciate the time he spent on my case.

I have no regrets in hiring Mr Riley even though my case didn’t go through (we changed our minds). He explained what can be a complex process very clearly and made sensible recommendations. Like a true professional when I halted proceedings he provided a fair account and returned any unused retainer - unlike my wife’s attorney.

I want to Thank Jack and his staff for the excellent work and handling of my divorce. Having never been thru anything like a divorce Jack took the time to explain everything that would be happening in very clear concise language, making sure I understood all the steps that we would take. Jack was very easy to get in touch with and was very responsive in returning my phone calls and e-mails. Mr. Reilly went above and beyond what I expected from an attorney. I would hire Jack M. Reilly again should the need arise and enthuestically recommend his firm to anyone who requires an Dedicated, Compassionate, Knowledgeable, Honest and Hard Working Attorney.

Mr. Riley handled my divorce case. He was thorough, immediately available to answer questions, explained everything every step of the way. I can't say enough good things about him and the way he handled my case. I would highly recommend him.

These aren't often words associated with attorneys. However, these immeasurable traits are precisely what distinguish Jack Riley in far exceeding the scope of his competition. He has a respect and passion for the law, and how best to utilize those qualities while representing his clients within the boundaries of the legal system. During our custody battle, Mr. Riley never encouraged us to venture off the path of the high road. He was steadfast, professional and realistic while preparing us for the confusing and, most times, harsh battles that encompass family law. Angela Yoder, Mr. Riley's paralegal, provided additional invaluable support and communication alongside him during the course of our case. They absorbed our struggles and repurposed them to be productive moving forward. They helped us maintain focus and redirected us the many times we felt defeated and emotionally exhausted. Our fight became their fight. And at all times we felt they were invested in us, and the well-being and protection of our family. Mr. Riley and his staff exemplified a willingness to go above and beyond to ensure justice was served pragmatically and thoroughly. The outcome was a successful one, and without a doubt, we know Mr. Riley and his firm are responsible for bringing that to fruition. Mr. Riley is an excellent proponent for his profession. We are humbled and grateful for the difficult tasks he embarked on during the challenges of our cause. We pray our family is not faced with the need for representation again in any near future, but should that battle ensue, Jack Riley will lead our charge.

From my first consultation, Jack Riley was a careful listener who walked me through every angle of my case. He helped me establish realistic expectations and gave me an introduction to the legal system I was about to encounter. Jack offers knowledge, experience, and professionalism that has made a very difficult time less stressful. Working with Jack for just about a year now he has not disappointed and in fact has exceeded all of my expectations. Jack offers a very human experience to a confusing legal system.

After the first consultation I did not have any doubts that I will hire Jack Riley as my attorney. The highest level of professionalism. All my questions were answered immediately and with full explanation. Excellent communication - I was aware about my case in detail. Any e-mails between Mr. Riley and my husband's attorney were sent to me as a copy. Mediation helped a lot to settle my case as soon as possible and get final decree of divorce in short terms. All paperwork was prepared by Mr. Riley very quick. Absolutely no any corrections were made, everything was perfect. I certainly will recommend Jack Riley with high respect for him and his professional abilities.

Mr. Riley came to my rescue and took on my divorce case 3 weeks before it was set to go to trial. My previous attorney had made so many mistakes that I was going to be completely defeated and left with little to nothing of a sizable estate. I cannot begin to explain how knowledgeable, professional, determined, and caring Mr. Riley was. He didn't just check the boxes, he thought outside the boxes, and attacked my case like it was his own. He was proactive in his planning, kept me informed of every detail, was prompt in his replies, and took my feelings, needs, and circumstances to heart - even when he was dealing with a family loss. I honestly cannot express how impressed I was with his services, and cannot properly convey how absolutely amazing he was. I would recommend Jack Riley without hesitation and he will be my first contact should I ever need future representation.

I had an excellent experience with Jack. He explained everything thoroughly. Jack kept a tight calendar so I could stay ahead of my deadlines. He helped me track what was due and when, reminded me often and kept me informed. Jack made sure I understood my choices and how different scenarios might play out, post divorce. Me and my spouse wanted to stay out of court and settle all the issues on our own. Trying to work it out ourselves was heated and at times, hostile. We ended up in mediation once and still had to work some things out through our attorneys. Jack was collected and confident. He remained firm and stayed calm. He went to bat for everything I wanted. Jack was not inflammatory to my spouse or to the situation. In the end, I think that got me farther then anything. I was not the best client. There were times that Jack had to chase me down. I wasn't as timely or responsive as I should have been. He could have dropped my case, but he didn't. Jack was fair and honest. I never felt like he was stacking up fees every time he had a passing thought about my case. I read reviews for EVERYTHING I purchase. I think it's helpful, so I also write reviews for other people to use. However, I don't think Jack needs my help. During the course of my divorce, I referred two friends to him. Both times, he was full and wasn't taking new clients. If you hire Jack, make sure he writes your final decree. My divorce decree was specific and detailed. If I ever need to fall back on it, I can. (You don't want to exit with a decree that is ambiguous and open to interpretation.)
