James understands the problem and suggests that best fits the situation. Very easy and pleasure to work with. Its not easy to go through the situation but Attorney like James Rogers made it so easy that I did not even feel the stress. I strongly recommend Mr. James L Rogers for all your criminal / DUI / DWI cases. Thank you James for taking my case and helping me.

James was available and in contact throughout every step. I could not be more impressed with his work and for making my case so much easier to get through than I thought it could be. I highly recommend James Rogers for anyone needing a criminal defense attorney in the Collin County area.

Mr. Rogers is an incredible attorney, I will absolutely use him again if need be. He is very well known in the law arena in Collin county. Went above and beyond on making sure I understood all of my options and even went out of his way when he did not need to. He really helped me out a lot and I am very satisfied with him and his team.

Honestly, I cannot believe I am even writing this review. I say that because never in a million reasons would I ever think that I would need an Attorney/Lawyer. I am they type of person that knows the laws and obeys them. However, life threw me a curve ball and here I am. If you are looking for an Attorney that cares, listens and acts please contact James Rogers Jr. When this all started for me I was contacted by about 30 law offices. I called several offices to get an appointment to explain my case and find out what my options were. All but a hand full that I called did not want to take my appointment for one reason or another. Ill be honest, several law offices were rude. When you have never had legal troubles and you really need someone to listen and comfort you its troubling to realize that so many Attorney/Lawyers are just in it for the money. I contacted Mr. Rogers office and they immediately set an appointment with me. The staff was very friendly and understanding. I sat with Mr. Rogers talking about my situation for about an hour. He never once looked at his watch or made me feel he had other things to tend to. Once I finished telling him about my case he was very thorough in discussing the options I had. He spoke in such a calming manner that I knew I could trust him to get the job done! I stress that he spoke to me in a calming manner because he mentioned to me that he would have to reach out to the other party involved in my case. I knew that he would be able to talk to that person without seeming rude or pushy. All the other offices I had contacted before him would have made my situation worse just by the tone and inflection in their voice. He will also fight for you! When it finally came down to my court appearance he was fighting to make sure I could get the best deal. We went back and forth on my case trying to get the best deal possible. I highly recommend James Rogers! He is extremely easy to approach, very knowledgeable, doesn't cast judgment and is kind. He gave me his personal cell number and insisted on me using if I had any questions or needs. So as you can tell...HE CARES. I am grateful to have him on my side.

WOW...There are no words to describe how amazing James and his team are. From the very first contact with James, he listened and advised me on what my next step should be, all the while calming and assuring me that he would be there for me every step of the way! Finally, after anxiously waiting for 15 months for some resolution, we were informed 2 days before Thanksgiving that my case had been dismissed!! Thanks to James and his team we have so much to be "THANKFUL" for this year! God Bless You!!!

Called to book a consultation and was greeted with rude staff.

Over the last 2 years I have had multiple dealings with the ULO that have involved my family. Mark, Natalie, Claudia & all of the staff have proven to be courteous, considerate, proficient, and most of all effective. They have consistently set a realistic bar and then overachieved for us. They have always demonstrated a genuine and sincere interest in us and the outcome. They are well prepared & know their business very well. I highly recommend them. Gerry M

Excellent Legal Representation!!! Don't waste time contacting other lawyers, if you are in need of immediate results, contact Underwood Law Office. They are complete and thorough, they keep you informed every step of the way. I highly recommend Underwood Law Office.

I needed to get my SSDI and knew I wasn't going to get it done correctly myself. Mark and Natalie did a great job of not only getting the job done but explaining to me the process in a way I can understand. We had a few bumps along the way but they kept fighting and got me across the finish line. Thanks again folks for the great job!

Overall I'm happy with services provided by Underwood Law. They were highly detail oriented throughout the process of my hearing.

Our family was very fortunate to have Kristi Tyler represent our daughter during difficult times. At our first meeting, Kristi was super patient listening to every detail of the situation. She was never judgmental and worked very hard to allay our fears and give us hope. Kristi is professional, thorough, compassionate, and very knowledgeable. Kristi’s communication skills are excellent. She did an excellent job of keeping us informed and answering our calls, texts, and emails anytime we had questions. We believe Kristi Tyler is the best and our family has the utmost respect for her.

Kristi is an excellent attorney. I cannot say enough great things about her, including her always calm and pleasant demeanor. Don't mistake her kindness for weakness, however. She's smart, and as a former prosecutor she is not afraid to have tough conversations to get the best outcome for you that she possibly can. If you're lucky enough to get Kristi for your attorney... congratulations, you've got the best!

Unbelievably thorough and professional. There was never a time that I didn't understand what was going on or what to expect next. The updates along the way help to ease my anxieties and prepare me for what would come next. Highly recommend Kristi Tyler!

I had the delight to work with Ms Vanita Parker. During a difficult time for my family, she was a shining light of hope. I cannot praise Ms. Parker enough. She is very professional and knowledgeable, every question and concern was acknowledged and addressed. She is extremely responsive and open in communication! I can't stress that enough! She answered every email and call, she's a woman of her word. Our family put trust in Ms. Parker and we are not disappointed! She is a genuinely a caring and compassionate person. I HIGHLY recommend her!

Ryan Kreck is hands down the best attorney! He assisted in my divorce and DWI case. He is not your typical attorney. He takes the time to understand your situation and what your goal is. Then once he knows that he fights to the end for you. My DWI outcome would not have been as blessing filled as it was if it weren't for Ryan. As far as my divorce, he took the approach I requested. I didn't want it to be a nasty divorce or to take everything from my husband however if I did want to, I would have definitely been able to with Ryan on my side. I could not recommend a better attorney to anyone. Thank you so much Ryan!

    Andrew is quick to take the money but EXTREMELY slow/non-existent with the result. He HAS TO BE WRITING his own positive review because there is no way he should be admired for his professionalism. I gave him over 1k to complete expungement HE said I was eligible for on 10/9/19. Literally did not hear from him after multiple emails and texts over the 1st 5 months. After about 6 months he sends 1 text saying my expungement was approved but he was waiting for them to send the paperwork. I waited almost another 2 months i texted him for my paperwork and he text back saying he would look into. He called me back 1 time to say he messed up and didnt realize he couldnt do the expungement due to me having a non-disclosure on a prior case. I called down to the court house and they advise me he missed my the court appearance so it didn’t go through. After numerous texts to him he responds i will look into it when I get back from vacation. Another month or so goes by. He texted me back a one-liner saying he would do my non-disclosure for this case for free since he messed up on the expungement. Basically since 10/2019 I have spoken to him once. I AM FILING A GRIEVANCE with TX bar assoc. AND I still have no paperwork. PLEASE DONT USE HIM!!! He is the worst “professional” and a nightmare to deal with. You’ve been warned, this is not a drill.

    I highly recommend. Because of Andrew's knowledge and expertise (especially in Plano) my case was dropped and Later expunged. Peveto law is now my go to law firm.

    Mr.Peveto was very helpful with my case and even helped me with a related job issue! He was very polite and was prompt to respond via text.

    This man is a miracle worker, just when i thought my back was against the wall this man stepped in and fought for me. If you want an amazing lawyer Andrew Peveto is that man!!! He is caring, listens and be by your side guiding you every step of the way. This man is God sent!!! The real MVP and a true hero!!! #pevetoforpresident

    This guy. Where to even start. I gave this guy $1500 to handle a case for me and the most he did was miss the freaking court date. Literally. Now as the case is still pending I can’t get a response to multiple voicemails and text messages directly to Peveto’s cell phone. I have filed a complaint with the Texas State Bar Association and warn anyone seeking service from this fraud to steer clear. Anyone, literally ANY other attorney will be a better choice for you. I have no clue how this man has all these great reviews other than my assumption that the reviews are from himself.

    I am beyond glad I chose Edgett Law Firm to help me with my early release off probation. Attorney Edgett returned my call the same night I made that first phone call, after everyone's usual business hours! He speaks with confidence and does not sugarcoat things- the perfect combo! He knows how to be assertive. Everything was straight to the point. They are organized and know what they're doing. BIG shout out to the paralegal, Josh. He's good at his job, he got me answers swiftly. I can finally move on with my life thanks to these guys! We all make mistakes, and Attorney Edgett gave me major hope and encouragement to stay on the right path I am now on. Look no further, these are the people you want in your corner, trust me.

    Scott and Mallory are not good lawyers! Never ever have I been scammed like this before in my life. I was facing 3 felony cases. I hired the edgett law firm looking at the 5 star reviews they had, I decided to give them a try, I paid $12,000 dollars for really 3 months of work at most. And they had the nerves to hire the same person I got locked in jail with. On top of that when I asked for a refund all I got back was $1000 dollars, this was very disappointing. They couldn’t even offer me probation for my case. I asked why I didn’t get at least half my money back, their answer was we charge by the hour all of a sudden. I had no time to waste and hired a different attorney. And now i am on 10 years deferred probation! Don’t waste your time guys. These people is just out to take your hard earned money! I had to fight for my freedom because I have 4 kids and a wife at home. They didn’t help me with my case. It was bad news every time they spoke with the district attorney. Please stay away! But I do want to thank Ben who was working for them at the time he was very caring and kind. But to my knowledge he left the firm couple months after I fired them. He helped me more then Scott or Mallory. He was at least thinking about my family too. He was at all my court dates. Never once did I see Scott or Mallory at my court dates. They are the attorney’s I hired not Ben. The reason was they retained the person who I got in trouble with as well so that led to a interest of conflict. Now he has to serve a 5 year sentence. And I am out on probation. I’m glad I made the right choice by leaving. If anyone is reading this please do not be fooled! God Bless

    If you have children you know that they may not always make the best choices during their youth. Scott was a godsend helping my family with a case from another state. He is professional, reliable and trustworthy. The relief we felt knowing he was taking care of every detail was priceless. Thank you so much!

    I was suprised I contacted them at 10/1030 pm at night due to an alleged DUI and a revoked bond from a missed court appointment from months ago. They where very understanding and reassuring quick to layout how things would go and they would take care of everything and explain more in detail what we should do tomorrow morning. This was after calling 5-10 other lawyers in the area that just asked me to call back in the morning as kinda was stressed as I didn’t have any criminal record so i wasn’t sure what to do at this point and would look at my case and try and get my PR reinstated. Nothing in life is guaranteed but felt at ease speaking with malorie and hopefully great things come as we dig into this farther and as long as myself and their team do their best that’s all I ask for as I know nothing is guaranteed, just going to wait and work with them and see where this bump in the road takes me

    I ran into a very difficult time in Collin County and ended up facing a felony charge and almost lost my wife to the circumstances and almost lost our kids to CPS. Long story short, I put myself in a completely horrible predicament and I was scared I would never recover from it. I didn't know what to do and CPS and the DA were moving FAST against me. But I knew one thing, I didn't want to lose my wife or kids. And Two, I would do anything to clear my name. "I am a good person and I refuse to let this incident define me." I am so glad Scott and his team were there when I needed him most. I was in such a complicated case. He definitely knows how to bring the honesty and transparency to the forefront of any predicament. He KNOWS everyone in Collin County. When your back is against the wall and you need true and HONEST legal resource, you need Scott and his team to represent you. He got my charge lessen to a misdemeanor, and while being on good behavior and completing all my classes and making all my payments, I can say everything is over now. Case dismissed. It's been almost 2 full years since everything ended, pretty soon I'll go back to them and they will help me seal this case. My family and I are more close and secure than ever now. Going through this really tested me as a husbamd who swore to take care of his wife and our children. And if it weren't for Scott, I would be alone, a felon in jail and in endless debt. Bless him and to anyone reading this I am a real person ok. If you are serious about getting your life back or just need some simple legal advice, please give Scott a call and LISTEN to what they say regardless of if it's something you want to hear or not.

      I am beyond glad I chose Edgett Law Firm to help me with my early release off probation. Attorney Edgett returned my call the same night I made that first phone call, after everyone's usual business hours! He speaks with confidence and does not sugarcoat things- the perfect combo! He knows how to be assertive. Everything was straight to the point. They are organized and know what they're doing. BIG shout out to the paralegal, Josh. He's good at his job, he got me answers swiftly. I can finally move on with my life thanks to these guys! We all make mistakes, and Attorney Edgett gave me major hope and encouragement to stay on the right path I am now on. Look no further, these are the people you want in your corner, trust me.

      Scott and Mallory are not good lawyers! Never ever have I been scammed like this before in my life. I was facing 3 felony cases. I hired the edgett law firm looking at the 5 star reviews they had, I decided to give them a try, I paid $12,000 dollars for really 3 months of work at most. And they had the nerves to hire the same person I got locked in jail with. On top of that when I asked for a refund all I got back was $1000 dollars, this was very disappointing. They couldn’t even offer me probation for my case. I asked why I didn’t get at least half my money back, their answer was we charge by the hour all of a sudden. I had no time to waste and hired a different attorney. And now i am on 10 years deferred probation! Don’t waste your time guys. These people is just out to take your hard earned money! I had to fight for my freedom because I have 4 kids and a wife at home. They didn’t help me with my case. It was bad news every time they spoke with the district attorney. Please stay away! But I do want to thank Ben who was working for them at the time he was very caring and kind. But to my knowledge he left the firm couple months after I fired them. He helped me more then Scott or Mallory. He was at least thinking about my family too. He was at all my court dates. Never once did I see Scott or Mallory at my court dates. They are the attorney’s I hired not Ben. The reason was they retained the person who I got in trouble with as well so that led to a interest of conflict. Now he has to serve a 5 year sentence. And I am out on probation. I’m glad I made the right choice by leaving. If anyone is reading this please do not be fooled! God Bless

    Kent Starr is the best lawyer ever! He made the impossible completely possible for me in my situation. Dedicating his time and efforts to help someone like me. He's an amazing person to communicate with. There's nothing he can't do! 10/10 would recommend. A kind and understanding human with a passion to help.

    Mr. Starr is very professional but also very personal. He is available throughout the entire process which makes it easier to understand. But most importantly he was able to get my case reduced significantly in light of the situation. I would highly recommend Mr. Starr to anyone in need of a great attorney.

    Mr. Starr is a true professional and expert at his craft! From the first phone call he was bluntly honest and on top of every detail within the hour. Morning or night, weekends and holidays Mr. Starr responded to my calls, emails and texts within minutes. His experience and knowledge of the court system and the people that work in it are unmatched in his profession. I am blessed to have had Mr. Starr on my side and as a result my case was dismissed!! Thank you Mr. Starr!!!

    I knew from the beginning that my case was going to be a tough one. Kent did too and was very upfront from the start. He told me that, due to the evidence the state had against me, we weren’t going to be able to fight it. But that didn’t stop him from doing everything he could to negotiate better terms for me as far as punishment. He worked his rear end off and got me the absolute best deal he could and he was honest about absolutely everything the entire time. Even when I changed my mind and went back and forth a few times about what I wanted to do, he didn’t get irritated or upset, he just worked as hard as he could.

    Helped my daughter more than words can say. I’m thankful to have the outcome this attorney brought her just as much as she is. This is her actual written review: Kent Starr has been an absolute blessing to me throughout the unfortunate charges I found myself with. He’s extremely personable and always replies quickly. I was looking at a scary outcome to say the least, and he went above and beyond to help in every way. I know I won’t be back in a position to need his services again, but would recommend him 100x over to anyone who needs quality help and legal representation. Thank you so much!!!!

    Ryne and the team at Whalen Law Office are the most considerate, respectful, professional, honest, direct, and best law group team I have ever met. I highly recommend hiring Ryne and the Whalen Law Office if you are ever in legal trouble. They do not take, "No," for an answer when it comes to your case, and will do whatever it takes for you to receive the best outcome possible. They are an absolute pleasure to work with.

    I would highly recommend Whalen Law office for anyone who has run into legal issues. Ryne and their whole staff was amazing to work with throughout almost a full year of hearings and then trial. Ryne and team were able to get the desired outcome of not guilty in trial. I'd come back and hire the Whalen Law Office without a second thought if ever needed again in the future.

    The.Best.Period. If ONLY I had them in the beginning!! I think the outcome would have been very different. But very grateful to be their client now.

    Great law firm, from day one it was made clear that they were here to help me with my situation. I had never really been in any legal trouble so my stress levels were at an all time high! James, Ryne & Diana helped me through every bit and made me feel like family more than a client! You cannot go wrong. I do not say these things lightly!

    James Whalen knows has your back and most importantly... knows the law. If you ever find yourself in a bind, keep your mouth shut and call James. He'll get you in the right position for whatever crazy situation you find yourself in. Highly recommend.

    One cannot go wrong with using Waren Price for legal counsel and representation in any criminal case. He has no problem with being upfront and honest, that he will lay out and prepare you for all the possible motions/ outcomes for your case, but will continue to fight hard for the best outcome that’s ultimately in your favor. He knows his stuff and I strongly recommend him!

    We are very pleased in working with Warren Price. I called his office and he returned my call during his vacation. We set up an appointment his first day back and after our conversation met with the prosecutor that day to resolve our case. The next day another issue arose and he worked after hours to get it resolved. The day of court he explained what would happen before the hearing and afterward made sure we had a full understanding of the decision. Our case was fully resolved. Warren Price was very professional, resolved our case immediately, and made sure we understood the process answering all our questions. Should the need arise I would not hesitate to contact him again.

    Mr. Price was in all honesty the best attorney for my wife's case. He got exactly what she was wanting and needing to come out of this whole situation. We are thankful to have had him fighting for her. We wouldn't hesitate recommending him to our family and friends if needed. Because one thing is for sure he fights until your satisfied.

    Mr. Price was great and i was very pleased with his work and knowledge of how to get the job done. He put himself in my shoes and fought like there was no tomorrow. If theres anyone i want on my side its Attorney Price. Thank you for your work and my no billed outcome! Your the man

    I had a really good experience with mr. Price. His hard work and dedication to my case is truly admired and appreciated. I never felt like I wasn’t getting 100%! Thank you!
