I just wanted to say how VERY satisfied my family and I are. Mr.Cruz has been nothing but helpful and professional from start to finish. We have acquired his services more than once and have never been disappointed. He shows compassion, genuine care and is dedicated to serve justice. I will continue to refer him to family and friends ! If you need a outstanding attorney Look no further.

I highly recommend Jason Cruz with Cruz Law, P.C. He was knowledgeable, professional, and caring! Mr. Cruz was very responsive to my many questions and needed revisions. I would definitely use him again, if I ever need an attorney in the future! ~Sara

Today is one of the best days of our family's lives. Let me start by saying, Jason was hired one week before trial for my sister's CPS case, she was facing termination of rights over her 3 year old daughter. Jason came in with a bang, He stood out the very first day of trial. He took what he had and ran with it. He is very knowledgeable and he is a genuine person. He was always so attentive to our needs, answered all calls, and even met with our family after hours to accommodate us. I put my faith in Jason and he executed in court and outside court. Because of him we won our case, my sister gets a chance and her rights were not taken, in fact, he also helped and assisted another attorney to grant full custody rights over my niece. Everything we wanted, he made sure happened. He was prepared all the time!! Very knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Because of him, our family is complete and my niece was not adopted!!! He is affordable, and loves to help others. With one week he had before TRIAL, he over exceeded my expectations. I will refer him to everyone I know. The best family attorney I have ever worked with. I put my trust in you Jason! My family is so grateful, and there is nothing I can do to show you how grateful we are for you!

Mr. Jason Cruz is an honest and knowledgeable attorney that gave my case the utmost importance from day one. His solid, timely, no nonsense advice was pivotal in navigating the sea of potential pitfalls throughout the length of my child custody case. Mr. Cruz’ passion for representing, supporting and protecting my paternal rights while advocating for the best interest of my child made all the difference in the outcome of my case. With this in mind, it is without reserve that I highly recommend Mr. Cruz’ legal services.

Sincere apologies - posted to wrong attorney.

    Needed to refer a client who had moved to the San Antonio area. Crista stepped right in and helped! Thanks so much!

    They lied to me about a Motion they claimed to have filed with the court, but had not. I am contemplating whether to sue them for malpractice. I didn't know they had cheated me until my other lawyer, from a different firm, looked into it and the court informed her they had never recieved the Motion. Justin Niedens informed me on multiple occassions that he had filled it, and I was counting on it being filled. I guess he thought I was too dumb to double check.

    These people dont care about your case, they just want you to pay the retainer, and as soon as they do they just stop communicating with you. I cant even get my attorney to respond to my emails, only the paralegal, and it take two weeks for the paralegal to get back with me.

    Crista was very helpful in getting my daughters out of a bad situation. She did a great job in getting me custody of my daughters. Because of her ability to navigate the legal / CPS system they have grown up to be smart strong young women.

    Christa Branch and her team understand what it means to be at a place in your life where you need to ask for help. We all do from time to time. They’re knowledgeable, compassionate, and positive. They have your interests at heart and will work hard to help achieve your goals.

    I recently worked with Lopez and his team and couldn't be happier with my services! Professional and helpful in so many ways. Lopez and team took the time to make me feel comfortable and at ease. He was able to walk me through the process in a way that helped me understand all my options. A very positive outcome overall for all involved.

    They have done an excellent and professional job handling my divorce case. I have felt supported and that my concerns were heard and understood. Ms. Whitley and her staff have been honest with me about things worth the costs of pursuing vs those that were not financially in my best interest, which I appreciate, and have been zealous advocates on my behalf when the need has arisen. If you want professional, supportive, and honest representation, I can’t recommend them enough.

    The Whitley Law Firm has been thorough and responsive from the beginning of my divorce a few years ago up to presently needing a modification. I didn’t hesitate to request their assistance a second time when the need arose. Their office is staffed by detail oriented professionals who diligently took care to make a difficult process as smooth as possible; I highly recommend them.

    Miss Whitley dug me out of hole and was able to get a previously horrible lawyer off of the case. She acted quickly to reverse what was turning into a very bad outcome. In the end the truth was revealed, and my ex realized he would not get away with lying in court with my current lawyer.

    Oh they gave a convincing song and dance in the beginning. They made me feel like it would be quick and easy. After a year and THOUSANDS of dollars, my relationship with my teenage daughter is ruined. Mrs. Whitley and her firm never advocated for me. Her paralegals take WEEKS to reply to any questions. If you're lucky enough to get a reply, you will be nickeled and dimed for every call, text, and email. Two of my friends and I ended up firing her. I only wish I had fired her sooner. After reading the other negative reviews, it sounds like this is common practice for the Whitley firm. Spend your hard earned money elsewhere.

    I searched for over a year for a divorce attorney that I felt comfortable enough to take my case and who's retainer was not $8000! I felt at ease instantly the moment I spoke with Jennifer at our first consultation. I expressed every concern I had and Jennifer listened patiently to every word and concern to help me come up with a game plan. It is evident through my experience of working with Jennifer that she has genuine compassion and concern for her clients and is not driven by a dollar bill. She was strategic in putting together the initial documents to serve my ex- husband to help mitigate any initial volatility that I was expecting on his end once served. Jennifer was a true advocate of trying to handle things through mediation as best as possible so we could avoid an expensive trial. Much to my surprise, my ex and I were able to come up with an agreement and our divorce was settled in about 4 months without a trial! From start to finish, Jennifer and her staff were prompt in communication and they were all extremely pleasant to work with! Jennifer is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in the field. I could not have asked for a better experience under the unfortunate circumstances. I would recommend Jennifer to ANYONE who is pursuing a divorce and needs counsel. I am thankful I took my time to find her. Jennifer and her staff are true gems!

    Jennifer and her team did an amazing job on protecting my assets and interests. Divorce can be a nightmare for anyone to go through, but her team made this process as efficient and easy as possible for me. I felt as if I was their only customer which meant the world to have such big support in this unfortunate event. Divorce isn't a quick process, so I appreciated thier very professional, quick, and prompt responses. They were ready to go every step of the way and always kept my best interest at heart. I never thought I would have to go through this, but I was put at ease by them informing me and teaching me every step of the process. They informed me my options and rights. They by far exceeded my expectations, and I would strongly recommend them for anyone going through an unfortunate divorce.

    Had several questions/issues regarding divorce matters and I had no clue where to begin. Plus looking for an attorney is like shopping for a car...tedious and tiresome. Every time I called a law firm, they wanted to schedule a consultation right away and would get back to me. But when I called the Espronceda Law Firm, to my surprise received a call back from an attorney within 30 minutes. Thank you so much Jennifer and Dillon for all your help! I highly recommend The Espronceda Law Firm. Their response time is amazing but most of all, they listen and care!

    Jennifer, Gena, and Brittney all were great helps when it came to my case. All of them had great communication with me through my case and were very patient when it came to all the Covid procedures for court. They even kept me calm through all of this. The fought to get me my rights as a father and get me my time with my baby. If you need a lawyer, I highly recommend Jennifer and her staff. I am grateful to the Espronceda Law Firm. Just amazing people at heart!

    I had an excellent experience working with Jennifer and her team. I was searching for an attorney who would handle my inter-state matter, and Jennifer really impressed me with her knowledge, professionalism, and straight-forward approach. She explained from our first conversation exactly how she would proceed to handle my matter, and I just trusted her from day one. My experience with the entire team was terrific; they communicated regularly, billing was straightforward, and they handled my matter with so much care. This is the attorney for you if you want your matter handled diligently!

      Jennifer and her team did an amazing job on protecting my assets and interests. Divorce can be a nightmare for anyone to go through, but her team made this process as efficient and easy as possible for me. I felt as if I was their only customer which meant the world to have such big support in this unfortunate event. Divorce isn't a quick process, so I appreciated thier very professional, quick, and prompt responses. They were ready to go every step of the way and always kept my best interest at heart. I never thought I would have to go through this, but I was put at ease by them informing me and teaching me every step of the process. They informed me my options and rights. They by far exceeded my expectations, and I would strongly recommend them for anyone going through an unfortunate divorce.

      Had several questions/issues regarding divorce matters and I had no clue where to begin. Plus looking for an attorney is like shopping for a car...tedious and tiresome. Every time I called a law firm, they wanted to schedule a consultation right away and would get back to me. But when I called the Espronceda Law Firm, to my surprise received a call back from an attorney within 30 minutes. Thank you so much Jennifer and Dillon for all your help! I highly recommend The Espronceda Law Firm. Their response time is amazing but most of all, they listen and care!

      Jennifer, Gena, and Brittney all were great helps when it came to my case. All of them had great communication with me through my case and were very patient when it came to all the Covid procedures for court. They even kept me calm through all of this. The fought to get me my rights as a father and get me my time with my baby. If you need a lawyer, I highly recommend Jennifer and her staff. I am grateful to the Espronceda Law Firm. Just amazing people at heart!

      I had an excellent experience working with Jennifer and her team. I was searching for an attorney who would handle my inter-state matter, and Jennifer really impressed me with her knowledge, professionalism, and straight-forward approach. She explained from our first conversation exactly how she would proceed to handle my matter, and I just trusted her from day one. My experience with the entire team was terrific; they communicated regularly, billing was straightforward, and they handled my matter with so much care. This is the attorney for you if you want your matter handled diligently!

    We consulted with Margaret in March 2019 to represent my sister for her divorce. From the moment we met Margaret, we knew we had the right person in our corner. Her knowledge and caring demeanor made a very ugly situation as painless as possible. During the entire process, Margaret kept us informed of what was going on and was readily available for any questions. She fought hard for my sister and the outcome was more than favorable. In October of 2020, following the death of my sister's son-in-law and unforeseen death of her daughter to Covid-19, we had to retain Margaret's services to handle the adoption of my sister's grandson. Again, Margaret acted promptly and efficiently. There was never any hesitation on who should handle this very sensitive matter. Yesterday, not even 4 months later, we received the news that the order for adoption had been granted and signed by the judge! Words cannot express the gratitude we have for Margaret.

    Very respectable and caring attorney. She answered my first call attempt from her cell phone.....while on vacation! Unheard of!!!! I’m so thankful for Margaret’s attention regarding my elderly mothers situation. She stayed in constant communication and provided legal knowledge. After all this, she was so kind & understanding when we had to cancel the appointment with her due to my mother moving to another state. Thank you Margaret!!!❤️

    Having known Margaret both socially and professionally for 20 years, I would highly recommend her legal services. She possesses the highest degree of ethical standards and her integrity is bar none. She is knowledgeable in estate planning and has helped me navigate these complicated waters with her expertise. Margaret also represented my daughter through a sticky divorce with ease.

    Margaret handled my will with great professionalism and concern for my personal wishes. Her suggestions and questions were so helpful for this intimate endeavor. The work was done in a timely fashion and she was available for changes as time passed. I would go to her office again if other issues arise.

    I cannot give enough praise to Margaret. I had hired another attorney in the beginning who was basically going to railroad me. She took a large amount of money and was going to do the least amount of work she could get away with. When I fired that attorney and hired Margaret I was pleasantly surprised to find someone who was willing to back me up and go to bat for me. I think my life would have been much worse if it wasn’t for Margaret’s help. I owe her my and my daughter’s life ❤️

    I can not say enough good things about Savannah Garcia and The Law Office of Rebecca Carrillo. I live in TN and was served for a custody case in San Antonio. Not only did Mrs. Garcia calm my nerves, she listened to me and walked me though the process. She’s was extremely prompt, and understanding even when I had a hard time composing my thoughts. This case was over jurisdiction of child custody, she was well versed on the topic and did her due diligence to make sure the outcome was in our favor. She made sure that she conferred with me before making or submitting any decisions, and made sure I understood the different outcomes that could happen. She gave a realistic idea of what the outcome could be but also a game plan for if things went a different way.If I have any more legal issues in Texas they are definitely my go to lawyers. I cannot thank them enough for the services they provided to me.

    We loved having them represent our family in our 2nd parent adoption. Very nice people in the office, answering phone calls and emails. They are professional and helpful. Everything went perfect for us.

    Dealt with all of the attorneys here and they were each solid as a rock. Danielle was my primary attorney and was always knowledgeable and quick to respond. I was proud to have Danielle as my attorney as she maintained composure and professionalism in the face of some pretty extreme pettiness (opposing counsel). Very fair in terms of billing. And all of the staff courteously and patiently answered all of my 8 to 10 million questions.

    Savannah has been very patient and knowledgeable in my case. She is very supportive and practical at the same time. I do not have enough words to thank this group and highly recommend to everyone in need

    Words cannot express how grateful I am for the help of Rebecca J. Carrillo and her amazing staff, Danielle Chester and Rose Vasquez, whom I personally dealt with throughout this difficult time in my life. Divorce was something I never saw coming and they handled my case with the utmost care and ease, especially considering I was a client out of state. I highly recommend their services and wish their law office nothing but the best.

    There is nothing easy about going through a Divorce especially with everything you have to consider and the documents you have to prepare for the courts. I was referred to Lopez by a very good friend and it was the best move I made in this process. Lopez was very clear in where the documents should be signed and how long I should expect the process to take with the courts. I want to thank Jesus Lopez for all his help through this process. They made a very difficult time a little bit easier.

    Great company, extremely professional and so helpful. Lopez and team helped my ex and I through what could have been extremely difficult on our own. All of our needs were met with compassion and professionalism. Not to mention fantastic customer service. Thank you again!

    My case has been a complete and total nightmare. The only thing which has made the last year of my life bearable is the diligent and dedicated work of this firm, specifically, Lisa, Kay and Jessica. My divorce is still on going and I have not been able to see my children in over a year, as their mother took them and fled to California. These wonderful women have communicated and cooperated with my California council to ensure I am getting the best representation both in Texas and California. Kay calls on the weekends to check to see if I have heard from my kids. Jessica is always available when I have questions. Lisa has been a staunch representative of both my rights and the rights of my children. I cannot say how thankful I am for the effort and consideration provided me by this firm. I would hate to see anyone go through what I have, but if they do, I would tell them there is no one who can take better care of them than Lisa, Kay, and Jessica.

    From the first day we spoke with Lisa Vance and her office we have felt like we were going to be well taken care of. Lisa is a great listener, she is compassionate, and she is assertive. She has many years of experience in family law and her dedication to thoroughly advocating for her clients is comforting. She has the strong support of her staff and many colleagues to collaborate with in all areas. Any and all questions are answered in a timely fashion. We know that when we step into court with Lisa at our side we are in good hands and we can count on her protection. Update: 07/20/2021. Nine months later, and close to $50,000 less in our life savings, nothing changed. A recommended friend that Lisa Vance strongly encouraged the to court use , Dr Dina Trevino, totally fell short of her time and visits on our behalf and wrote a horrible report against us and greatly encouraged others to do the same once her report came out. Up until that point we were “excellent” Caregivers for our grandchildren. No, we are not angry and bitter, just feel you should know the truth as we experienced it. Even Lisa Vance herself turned on us in the end with ugly words stating we would not be a part of our grandchildren’s life if we did not continue to keep her on and fight the endless ugly battle. It’s so horribly ugly in the courts, if you are looking for an Attorney, best of luck to you. The court system is severely broken. May God Bless our children, May He protect those that cannot protect themselves.

    My experience with Lisa Vance in handling my divorce was very comforting. Not only was she attentive and diligent, she made me feel comfortable while relating my personal concerns and dealings with my case. Lisa expressed humble empathy to my situation and continually expressed concern over my well-being. I truly felt my best interest was her main goal. Lisa was wonderful and all her employees were so welcoming.
