Simply put, Sam is head and shoulders above his peers in family law. Sam got results, as he navigated an incredibly complex, multi-state custody case. I personally hired 6 separate attorneys from 3 separate states during a multi-year case. I was looking for a result, not a service. I can't say enough about working with Sam. The national, and even the large firms in major cities simply will not fight for you on the same level that Sam will. He is an honorable, outstanding professional - a man among men.

Samuel Solodar did an amazing job helping me with my divorce. His professionalism, knowledge of law and attitude to his job made me to be confident in the right choice of the lawyer.

I highly recommend Sam for your family law needs in Travis County. As a professional in this career I can attest to his skill and knowledge and concern for his clients. Do not hesitate to call him!

Sam takes a peaceful, yet firm approach to litigation. I always felt such relief after speaking with Sam on the phone or in person. I felt safe, understood and really taken care of with him. Sam is very professional and knows what he’s doing, yet maintains a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. He took a lot of the stress out of my situation. I will definitely use Sam again if I ever need to, and I would highly recommend Sam to anyone seeking a very competent attorney.

I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am to have worked with Sam through my divorce. I had a relatively quick and minimally complicated divorce, but he is the one who made it go so smoothly. When I reached out to Sam he responded to my call within a couple of hours and met with him in person later that week. My stressed mind was put at ease in just one meeting with him. He answered all of my questions as they came up and made me feel like he was always available to help me. Sam was thorough, efficient, professional, and compassionate. I am so grateful a relieved to have worked with him and he is 100% worth every dollar spent. A great lawyer and great human being. Don't go anywhere else!

I recommend this law firm unequivocally, without hesitation! More than competent , extremely personable and reasonable in price, everyone from Catherine to her office manager and paralegal were their for me. Catherine fought for my financial well-being and was incredibly supportive emotionally for me. I had no clue how to navigate a divorce and this firm was my port in the storm of divorce, guiding and helping me through every step and wave.

Catherine Benouis and her team were so helpful during my collaborative divorce. In my first meeting with her, I immediately felt better about starting what I knew would be a tough process. She was consistently professional and responsive all the way to the end. I highly recommend Benouis Law.

Going through divorce is never a pleasant experience but I can say that the team at Benouis Law made the process far less upsetting than I envisioned. The professionalism and responsiveness of Ms. Benouis and her team was excellent. I was kept well informed throughout the process which was made both transparent and understandable at a time when the world otherwise seemed upside down.

I retained Catherine for a divorce and throughout the process, even more than her knowledge of Da Law, what made all the difference was her empathy. Her concern for my mental well being was so, so appreciated. She made an unbearable process somehow much more bearable. I don't recommend divorce, but if you have to go through it, I highly recommend Catherine Benouis Law!

The team at Benouis Law are all highly capable and professional. And they know their area of the law very well. I couldn't have navigated the challenges and choices in my situation without the help of Catherine and her staff. Highly recommended when you have a family law need.

When my ex-husband decided to take me back to court for custody, I could not have asked for a better attorney. Scott Milner and Donna went above and beyond. Not only was Scott successful in the custody piece, he was able to help me win every aspect of the case in the best interest of my son. Scott was very thorough, explained everything in great detail, and made me very comfortable throughout the process. At times I was unsure but he always told me to trust him and he did not fail. I am so thankful to have found him for my case. I would recommend Mr. Milner for any divorce or custody case. He is exceptional!

I can’t say enough positive about Gracie Wood Shepard. I worked with her a few years ago when she was newer and she did a wonderful job repping me in my divorce. So great, in fact, that I hired her again recently for a pretty outrageously complex series of legal issues. She is organized, calm, collected, BRILLIANT, legally savvy and very well-educated and clearly knows the law. She is also well-supported by her firm and shared that she collaborates with the other attorneys in her office often...which I love. She was very cool and articulate in court. She was bullied big time by the other lawyers and stood her ground without any issues. The other lawyers tried a bunch of slippery moves, too, and she was unwavering. She’s also a bargain at her current rate and I felt her charges were very fair. My only issue with leaving this review is that she might get too busy to rep me in the future!

I am so thankful to Scott Milner for his graceful representation of me in my divorce. I first met with Amy Lambert, who quickly saw that my case would not likely mediate, and she passed me to Scott, so that we would be prepared in case we had to go to trial. We did go to trial, and Scott Milner helped me to get the best outcome for my 3 children and myself. He had a very difficult case in my situation, and he had to defend me against tough accusations. Scott is so good at his job, he knows how the legal system works, he is very well-respected in the courts, and I feel so fortunate to have found him.

As an attorney I know that representing another attorney in an action can be difficult. My experience with Amy and then Scott through a long and contentious divorce trial was far beyond my expectations. Not only were they brilliant, responsive and dedicate, but thoroughly honest and transparent. I cannot recommend them more highly, and have already had referred clients thank me for sending them to FMLT.

I hired Amy while going through a divorce and she was referred by a friend and she is quite good when focusing on my case. She is regularly unresponsive and even with repeated emails she was still unresponsive. I had to ask her to delegate the paper filing work to her paralegal or secretary and they helped move it a little forward. We are more than two months behind filing the signed mediation papers. To me without clear communication with her clients her actions are quite unacceptable. Or she treats clients different which is equally inappropriate.

Jimmy and his team have been wonderful to work with. Very dedicated and professional. Jimmy explains things in a very careful and intelligent way that a non lawyer understands. He's a very practical, and skillful attorney. Going through a divorce is not easy but having Jimmy and his team handle everything quickly and professionally was such a relief. I highly recommend this law firm!

When you need a strong voice who knows the law to fight for what is truly in the best interest of your family, choose Evans Family Law Group. They are responsive, knowledgeable, professional and honest. My case is still open, but I am confident with what I have experienced so far. Jimmy takes great pride in his firm and it shows though prompt and personal communication from him and his staff. Everyone I've encountered is helpful and professional.

The service and respect I've received after I've been with them for years has dramatically changed. I think if you are exploring options I would continue to explore. Extreme focus on billing and not service...seems like we were never organized and on point. Constantly repeating work. Its like I have to defend myself in every conversation. It appears it’s a cultural thing. Turns out its a similar experience among others I've spoken with. If I could reduce to zero I would.

Jimmy and his team are amazing. The depth of experience and ability to advise on my divorce was incredible. It became very clear to me that they work very hard at what they do. The most amazing thing that I continued to notice was how Jimmy could see far down the road and predict what was going to happen based on the TX legal system in conjunction with the personalities of opposing counsel. This was impressive and these are the qualities you want in an attorney that you hire to represent you. Surprises are the most difficult thing when you are going through tough times like this, and Evans Family Law Group does their best to set proper expectations and ease the anxiety of their clients. I would highly recommend their services for any family law related matter.

Kimberley Evans has been my divorce attorney many years. There aren't enough nouns for me to describe my experience with her as my attorney. Her tenacity, drive, and hard work are apparent. "The work will speak for itself" and it certainly does. Evans Law Group is also a representation of these things. When it comes to something like the fallout after an ended marriage, especially where children are involved, every decision can have lasting ramifications. Timing can make or break various factors for you depending on the circumstance. Don't risk the potential for long term clean up. Work with the best from the get go and ensure the best outcome for yourself and your family and start with the best from ground zero.

Appreciated having Daryl in my corner. Would highly recommend her to anyone going through a difficult family matter.

They made my divorce not as stressful and supported me in every decision I had made. They explained the process and all the steps involved. I would highly recommend this firm.

Daryl Weinman is an exceptional attorney. She is professional, current on all the laws and experienced. I have used her lawyer services and will continue to do so. I highly recommend her

I feel the process took longer than necessary. My attorney was very nice and made me feel comfortable.

If you are facing a difficult divorce, I highly recommend Weinman and Associates. They work together as a team and are very responsive and helpful. At all times we felt confident we were getting the best legal representation possible. Casey Kelley represented my son and he worked diligently to protect my son’s rights as a father. We couldn’t have asked for a better advocate. In addition, the entire office staff is helpful and friendly. We always felt we were valued as clients and that they really understand our situation and truly cared.

I was very pleased with the service we received from Trusler Legal PLLC who helped us adopt our son. We are so thankful for Cristi's professional and thorough care for us during the entire process. Highly recommend this practice and have referred her to others!

I HIGHLY recommend Cristi Trusler for family law, particularly custody cases. Cristi, along with her phenomenal paralegal worked countless months/hours and put forth everything they had to ensure that all of the facts were conveyed in court. We had many obstacles to overcome where the county our case was held. Cristi and her team did absolutely everything they could to speed up the process and keep a fire underneath their feet to move the needle. The end result was we WON custody of my little girl! Anyone who has had a case in Texas and you are a father wanting the best for your children - you know the struggles and chances of going before a court and presenting your case and winning...not very good odds. Well, we did it! Now my little girl is in a safe and way more stable environment than ever before. I and my wife cannot be more grateful for the huge blessing Cristi and her paralegal have been in this case. Cristi, if you see this review I want to again thank you so much for being a great advocate for my little girl. And for everyone else, take my word for it - you will not be disappointed.

I work in the family law field, and have for more than a decade. So when I was faced with needing to hire an attorney to represent my family, I knew exactly who I wanted for the job. Cristi Trusler and her staff are courteous, responsive, and always kept me and my husband informed about what our options were. Cristi and her paralegals answered all of our questions, welcomed our input, and addressed our concerns. When you are fighting for something as important as your children, it is imperative that you feel heard, and that you know you are getting the best possible advice from someone with real trial experience. My husband and I could not be more pleased with the work of Trusler Legal, and would recommend Ms. Trusler to anyone needing sound legal advice and representation.

I’ve worked with Cristi Trusler in divorce cases for over a decade. I have had multiple Collaborative divorce cases with her and have mediated for her as well. She is a compassionate and knowledge advocate and creative problem solver.

Trusler provided an excellent legal experience. Their online tools and workbooks allowed 2 adults to compromise on the details of dissolving the marriage. We used their well-thought out process to discuss things as adults. I recommend Trusler highly. I was very satisfied.

David was such a big help! Carolyn explained every detail of my forms. Well recommend!!!! If I could give them more then 5 stars I sure would!!!

Carolyn Young has an extensive working knowledge of family law. She is extremely dedicated to each and every client, while providing excellent results that are fair, ethical, and timely. I highly recommend her with your legal needs.

I've worked with David there in the office. They have a tremendous attention to detail, and are fine people to work with. Genuinely nice people.

I hired Carolyn about 10 years ago, paid my $4000 retainer and she used almost the entire amount ($40 returned unused) in just serving him with papers, phone calls to me. Nothing was accomplished for $4000. I had to hire another attorney and pay again before I got my case settled. Very upset and a waste of money I didn't have.

Look no further than Jeff Barnett and his law practice to assist with your legal needs. He is worth every penny and extremely professional. I reached out to Jeff to assist with a frivolous lawsuit filed against me when no other attorney would help. Not only did he get my lawsuit dismissed, he helped with getting sanctions awarded against the plaintiffs attorney for not doing his due diligence before filing a frivolous lawsuit against an innocent party. I will certainly use Jeff again and recommend him and his practice highly without reservations.

I have recently needed some legal help with wills, estate planning, financial advice and power of attorney. All at Barnett & Leuty have been accessible and very responsive to all my questions. They made the whole process easy and were able to accommodate my time frame. I can not rate them highly enough. They are more than just a team of experienced legal professionals they actually care about their clients. You are in very safe hands with Barnett & Leuty!

I refer many of my clients to Jeff Barnett for wills, trusts and other estate planning needs. Jeff always provides education and clarity to my clients. They all walk away feeling confident and educated that their needs and wishes are taken care of. Jeff and I have a great partnership and I value him as an extension of my team.

I have used Jeff on several occasions now over several years. In Commercial landlord disputes, as an advisor on several personal family law matters, and also for collections for a vendor that didn't want to refund our money for materials returned to them. Jeff is also assisting me draw up a personal will. It is nice having legal council that can handle so many elements of my legal needs. Thanks Jeff!

Chris through and through was a professional who understands the system and will prepare you on what might happen and will happen. He's honest and gets straight to the point of the situation. I had been dealing with a child's medical payment lawsuit that I should've never been sued for as well as TX AG's Office mistakenly setting up wrong child support payments amounts that without Chris, the issue would've never gotten resolved. Grateful that I found Chris and I highly recommend him to anyone going through hard co-parenting times.

Chris Is the best lawyer I could have ever been lucky enough to work with. The idea of getting a divorce was so hard to even think about but Chris made it very comfortable for me because he understood the difficulty , the decisions and how brave one must be as to leave hard marriage. He was there with understanding and helped me through every hoop. I have learned a lot from my experience and I would thoroughly recommend Chris if you are married to someone who is very manipulating. It’s gonna be hard no matter what but it’s really important that you have somebody like Chris in your corner to help you. He knows best how to get you through this process. You can put your trust in Chris. So, Hang in there , it will get better and when it’s over , it’s very important for you to have someone who knows the ropes as to how to take very good care of you and your concerns. Chris will do his best for you. He did this for me. .

I am grateful to have had the support of a fantastic attorney in the matter of my uncontested divorce. Chris Merritt made the process painless and quick. He is smart, experienced, thorough, approachable, and kind. His rate is fair. I recommend him highly.

Mr. Merritt is brilliant in the courtroom and works extremely hard for his clients. I saw this firsthand. Highly recommended.

Chris is a rare find in his field. He was very consultative in helping me find a solution for my family issue. He walked me through each option and stage of the process. He was forthcoming with which route was the best route for me. The route we chose for me ultimately paid him less than all others. He truly puts his clients before himself.

I am very grateful for the legal guidance I received from Kirker Davis LLP. They showed compassion, understanding, and were very responsive to all my questions and needs. Demi has been my Legal Counsel for some time and she has always given me the best and honest answers. Her and Lianna took my legal matters and made them very personal and yet professional. I truly am grateful for their time and effort. Family is everything and they take that to heart.

Candice, Ashley, and Laurie are highly professional, strategic, thorough, and above all intelligent. They helped me stay organized (which is no small feat), gracefully pivoted in the face of challenges, and provided emotional clarity in times of distress, even when those challenges and distressful situations were due to missteps by me. In my case, Candice routinely exhibited prescience regarding which matters deserved focus and which matters were distractions, which saved time, and money. Ashley expertly delivered to the court clear, concise, and highly effective summaries of complex topics. More than once, Candice and Ashley noticed and brought to light critical details that easily would have been missed and that had a huge impact. I couldn't say enough about how much this team helped me through my ordeal.

Excellent service! I contacted the Kirker | Davis law firm with a matter outside of their scope of practice. And yet, I received an immediate response from Carly Banner, with the helpful information and a great source for legal services. Very helpful! Thank you, Carly!!!

My experience with the law firm was excellent. The legal advice I received helped to clarify my options and guide discussions that ultimately led to a positive outcome for my family. I highly recommend this law firm.

Demi and her team were extremely professional, considerate and helpful during my divorce. Demi was extremely thorough with her professional guidance and advice and I felt comforted knowing she was protecting my and my best interest. Their communication was fast and I felt I had a team that cared about the outcome of my case. I can't recommend them highly enough.

I would love to express how amazing David Kazen and Mary his legal assistant are in handling my case. He has defended me through unjust accusations and fought for my daughters and myself . Both he and Mary possess such an empathetic demeanor throughout my case and have been comforting and helpful during our professional time together. They both have had ethical and legal advice the entire time, and never made me feel like I was less than an important client. In times where I have been worried about ongoing issues occurring I have been able to reach them immediately even on the weekends. I would highly recommend David Kazen's girl to anyone needing a just and ethical family lawyer to represent them in their case. I only wish I had of found him sooner as the other attorneys I worked with in Austin were unethical in many ways and did little to nothing to help end this process. David is much different in assisting in closing things out so that the case will not continue to drag on.

David took over our case after our attorney passed away. His office came recommended from our precious attorney’s office. David jumped in and listened to our case and circumstances and was fully committed. David was even not too familiar with military retirement issues but allowed us to be fully involved in every step and was appropriately aggressive with opposing council to encourage a timely response. We would recommend David for anyone needing help in the family law arena or military retirement issues. And Mary in his office is a doll and so helpful all around wonderful experience.

David Kazen is hands down the lawyer I recommend to anyone seeking legal counsel. David represented me through my divorce as well as a custody battle a year later and I couldn’t have been more pleased. David and Mary, his legal assistant, are responsive, caring, and very knowledgeable of not only family law, but the workings of The Travis County judicial system as well. Usually being the father in the state of Texas already puts you behind the eightball when it comes to custody battles, but with David’s help and guidance I was able to get exactly what I had asked for in mediation. If you have any legal needs contact David Kazen.

I would like to say that having David Kazen represent me during divorce and child custody matters was a very comforting experience. David and his team kept me updated, educated and helped to reduce my anxiety during a very stressful and difficult time in my life. David remained diligent and committed to our case throughout more than a two year long legal battle that had a happy ending. I would like to say "Thank you" to David" for reuniting me with my children. I would highly recommend David Kazen Law.

David has been my attorney for almost a decade now and has artfully worked is way through an incredibly difficult divorce. I have appreciated his thorough knowledge of the law coupled with his rational and sensible advice throughout the process. It was extremely important to me during such a stressful and emotionally trying process that I could not only trust, but also rely on. I consider David top notch and would not hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends or family if they were ever to need the services of a family law attorney.
