I have used James and Parlange law for my in-laws will. We went in with so many questions and walked out with all the answers, without even asking the questions. The whole process was so fast and easy. My in-laws felt so comfortable about everything, that they went forward with hiring Mrs. Charioty the same day. We also dealt with Carol and from the beginning she was so sweet and willing to help with anything we needed. I highly recommend this law office with all of your Will needs.
Review
Charioty and Carol were an absolute pleasure to work with. Extremely competent and willing to talk it through and explain various scenarios in great detail to insure that you understand what the documents say in the 'real world'! I could not recommend them more highly!
Review
I contacted Carol to have some documents reviewed that had been prepared in another state to make sure there would be not be an issue if they needed to be used in Texas. She was able to review the docs & quickly got back to me with the information that I needed. Carol's knowledge along with her promptness & professionalism were outstanding. I would definitely recommend this law firm for your legal needs.
Review
They communicated very well and were easy to work with!

Estate planning can be a challenging process so it's important to find the right person. I chose to work with Paige because of her experience and her practice is focused almost entirely on estate planning. Paige was very easy to work with and completely addressed all my questions and concerns at every step. Communication with Dossey and Jones staff was always helpful, courteous and prompt. And I'm confident they will continue to support me if my plan changes or my estate if necessary.
Review
We have been working with Jim Dossey and his team for about 2 years. In that time, Jim and his team have been attentive, knowledgeable, responsive and detailed. We have worked through business events and personal events and find the team to be so diverse. It is refreshing to work with a firm that feels like a one-stop shop for all your needs. We feel very fortunate to have met this team!
Review

Phillip was especially charming, delivering guidance and answers with candor, intelligence and wit that turned a routine legal exercise into a rather enjoyable experience.
Review

Review
It was time to update our wills and related documents and we were seeking advice on the need for a trust. Within 1 day after my initial general request to Paige Jones for information we received estate plan packages service and price list and available meeting times. From then on, the data/information request to us, the meeting to review our data, the receipt of draft documents, the interactive review of our questions and comments on the drafts and the final review and signing was timely and efficient. Paige Jones was thorough, knowledgeable, personable and very attentive to our needs. We couldn't have been more pleased with the service and the final product that we received. Also, would like to recognize Sheila Buss, administrative assistant and Olivia Thomas, Paralegal, for their prompt, professional and courteous service.

I feel very strongly that my will is prepared in a manner for all my family to feel comfortable. That's a real good feeling.

A HUGE thank you to Mr Ford for the time he took with my senior mom and senior aunt to explain the co-administrator duties they have and how his law firm could assist in the event we needed representation. He was very down to earth and relatable to us. I would highly recommend his expertise and probate guidance.
Review

Each referral came back and raved about the level of service and professionalism given by Mr. Ford and his staff. Kudos to F+B!
Review
The best probate attorneys in Houston. They made the entire process very easy and communicated very clearly what my best options were. Highly recommended.
Review
This lawyer won’t even show up to his own deposition in which they already rescheduled for him once. This is extremely unacceptable and should not have been allowed. Think twice before even thinking about going with this firm.

Thuy Tran personally handled out estate planning. She was thoughtful and professional walking us through the process. We had several complex questions and scenarios we needed to address. I would highly recommend to anyone to use Featherston Tran for your estate planning. We were able to meet & visit with Brad during our consultations and were very impressed with both attorneys.
Review
It was a surprisingly pleasant experience during a very difficult time in my life (loss of a family member). Featherston Tran is a very professional team to get support when we are in need. Thuy Tran is very persistent in reaching the set goal by overcoming all obstacles methodically and ethically. They accomplish their duties in a timely manner with a reasonable fee.
Review
When dealing with matters that are so critical to the well-being of your family or business, I couldn't have consulted with any one more professional and supportive than the Featherston Tran team. The attorneys are truly dedicated and care about doing what's right for you and your family's best interests. Estate planning is something no one wants to think about, but Thuy and Brad will ensure that the process will be as painless as possible. I have also consulted with them on numerous small business legal matters as well as corporate policies and have found them to be equally knowledgeable in those areas. Highly recommended! Give them a call, you will be glad you did.
Review
Featherston Tran did a great job with estate planning for my aging mother. Beyond being highly competent and professional, there is a personal touch and warmth to their service. They were very fair on the price for their work and met every deadline. I have known Thuy Tran for eight (8) years and always find her work to be excellent. I'd highly recommend this firm.
Review
Brad was highly recommended by our trusted financial advisor. He helped us confidently decide between establishing a trust versus a will for our children. He also helped us get rid of a timeshare!! We thought we would be stuck with this timeshare forever and that it would be passed onto our children as a burden. We have even been scammed in the past with a company that would've supposedly sell our timeshare off within a few months (and of course, we paid upfront). With Brad's guidance, we never have to worry about a timeshare ever again! He goes above and beyond, even though he does not specialize in timeshares etc. We are very grateful for Brad as our family's future is much more secure now!

Everyone there is kind and informative. Our attorney Tran Nguyen helped my grandparents and parents draft their wills. She was very attentive to our needs. We highly recommend their expertise.
Review
The Newman firm had one thing to do and that was to probate my dads WILL!!! We paid them $5,000 and NO PROBATE!!!?? They took our money that we had to borrow and now we have no money to hire another lawyer to file the estate? We will lose my Dads estate now!! I’m horrified! Upset! This is wrong! No one should be allowed to do this to another human!!
Review
Gave them $5000. We asked them to look into my father in laws and grandfather in laws estate. Only thing they did was get my father in laws will where my wife could see it. Didn't look into the grandfather's. They did see that the grandfather had a house and they said they would gladly take $30,000 of that money for getting the house sold. Very disappointed with them just looking to make money off of a really terrible situation for my wife and her family.
Review
Very professional. Treated us respect. Very informative. Talked to us with compassion and understanding.

Everything was so good.

Outstanding professional firm would be an understatement. From the first moment of contact (appointment), to the celebration of completing the documents for my trust, every step was a flawless & rewarding journey. I had researched other estate attorneys recommended and was ready to give up in disappointment. I attribute my finding Christine as an answered prayer and that is exactly how she and her staff were through out this process. There are not enough word to describe Christine and her team. The great experience you will find with them, says it all...Joyce

The loss of my husband was an emotional time for me. On top of the feelings of sadness and grief that comes from losing my spouse after almost 60 years of marriage, there were all the probate actions to complete that I did not fully understand. Not knowing who I could trust, a friend with experience in this area recommended I reach out to the legal team at Riddle and Butts, LLP to represent my family through the probate process. Now that everything is complete, I can honestly say that consulting the attorneys at Riddle and Butts, LLP was a great decision. They were professional, knowledgeable and very caring during this difficult time in our lives. A great deal of thanks goes out to Ms. Butts and her legal team.
Review
I needed a new will and other documents related to estate planning. Being relatively new to Texas, I relied on internet reviews to guide my choice of attorneys. I am glad I decided to use Riddle and Butts. The initial consultation was excellent and all my questions were answered. When my documents were ready, they were sent to me via email and the USPS. I had adequate time to review them and prepare questions. At the final signing, all questions were answered to my satisfaction. Everyone I enountered was professional and very personable. I highly recommend them!
Review
Christine Butts met with me to prepare my estate plan documents. I needed help because I was unsure of how to make some things happen in regard to my will. Christine has an extensive legal background in probate and by sharing her expertise, I was able to make those decisions. I am now comfortable knowing that my wishes will be fulfilled and my estate will be probated within the law. Her staff was professional and courteous throughout the process. I could not be more pleased with the results and highly recommend the firm of Riddle & Butts.
Review
I would highly recommend these attorneys. They were very responsive, very professional and compassionate. Our experience with Christine Butts was wonderful. She helped my mother with her request for spousal allowance and we were able to receive that judgment. I had tried other attorneys prior to this ,and never had a postive outcome or a positive experience.. We are thankful for finding this law firm!!

Kevin was excellent to work with. He is very detailed and thorough. He answered all of our questions in an easy to understand manner. Marisela was very responsive, flexible and thorough in scheduling our appointments. I can’t speak to value because I didn’t shop around but the fee seemed reasonable to me.
Review
My father hired Mary Galligan in March of 2008 to prepare his will, set up a trust, and draft all other relevant end of life documents. When he died unexpectedly in 2019, these documents were invaluable to us. More important, however, was the advice and professionalism of the entire firm. Mary and her team guided me in every aspect of executing his will, administering his estate and figuring out the steps to take to address all applicable tax issues. I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Galligan and Manning for all estate planning needs. Their compassion and knowledge are unmatched.
Review
I found Galligan & Manning through a friend of mine that used their estate planning services. My friend was very satisfied with their service. My wife and I were very pleased with Kevin Horner who handled our account. Kevin is very knowledgeable about estate planning. We did not have any experience with the process. We will definitely recommend their services to friends and family. Fernando Osornia
Review
Our experience with Galligan & Manning continues on an exceptional level. They were there for us 20+ years ago, and we see no reason to go anywhere else for our current legal / Estate planning needs.

The support staff is also excellent and attentive to our needs. They are extremely professional and we highly recommend their services. TS

Although not a PhD in Physics (like Joy's father was) I thought I was pretty smart. Trying to study trusts and wills on my own proved me wrong. Joy's knowledge experience and patience led us through the intricacies of the law with aplomb. Now we can die. I mean... Thanks Joy, it was a pleasure, an enlightening experience and it was even fun at times. Well done!
