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.

I called The Law Offices of Tim Whitten today. My call was promptly returned. Summer was able to quickly research and address my needs. Everyone I spoke today from the office was professional and courteous. Sometimes there is a tremendous amount of anxiety when you have to engage an attorney’s office, kindness and consideration goes a long way in making it a less stressful event. I am grateful to the professionals at firm.

I have seen Whitten Law(unfortunately). They are knowledgeable, and really reliable and decent people. Also, were very prompt. Thank you for your help.

I was confronted with a challenging family law situation and Tim was very helpful in laying out the issues so that I could make informed decisions.

There aren't enough words to fully convey how happy I am I chose the Law Office of Tim Whitten to represent me in a recent cusody case but I will attempt in this review. I contacted Tim Whitten to represent me in the most difficult time of my life. After a few in-depth conversations with Summer and Tim, we agreed it would be best for my case to have Tim and Amerin Whisnant represent me. Amerin Whisnant was my main attorney and handled the bulk of the case and throughout the entire case, I have never seen more courtesy, kindness and hard-work on my behalf. I felt secure knowing the knowledge they possed would give me a clear picture of my options and guide me in the right direction. However, they allowed me to make all informed decisions based on what was right for my family. Rightfully so, emotions were high, however, Amerin did a tremendous job navigating me through it all and eleviating some of the stress and intensity that came with it. They displayed the utmost professionalism towards the opposing party including his attorney which showed me a lot of wisdom. I can honestly say my son and I are better off having chosen Amerin, Tim and this entire team as our legal coucil. Even their paralegal, Ashley, was great to work with - I highly reccomend them 100x over!

Tim is an outstanding attorney focusing on collaborative divorce.

Mike skillfully and patiently guided me through an uncontested decree modification. Despite occasional friction between the parties, he was there with humor, insight, experience, and humanity. Anyone who is in need of down-to-earth, kind, fair representation should give him a call. An excellent choice.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Mike as a friend and colleague for years and consulting with him on a number of cases. He is compassionate, thorough and works very hard to get the best possible outcome for his clients. Family law cases are often the worst moment in a person's life, and anyone would be lucky to have Mike by their side to guide them.

Mike is a fantastic lawyer, he really cares about his clients and works hard on his cases.

This man was an ad lietem for my daughter and she is a troubled teen. He is placing her in an unsafe environment with a family member known for abuse and sexual abuse. They are drug addicts and prostitutes and he wants my teen girl to go live with these people OUT OF THE STATE OF TEXAS SO HE CAN GET PAID . He does not care about anything but the money. period. HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT PEOPLE OR CHILDREN,what so ever. He is very rude, calls people names,he is a snake. HE IS A SHARK OUT FOR HIS OWN. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS SCUM. I had to give a star is why there is 1.

I had been calling lawyers for weeks with no one answering or returning calls. I called Walters Gilbreath and right from the start I felt like they cared and wanted to help. Kylie answered the phone and I was put through to Sheree then to Brian Walters. He took the the time to answer all of my questions and give me some good advice. I would definitely recommend them for their professionalism, caring, and sage advice.

Slav and Sydney both are amazing! Slav listens and is honest about expectations. He is confident and direct. I am so grateful to him and his team! I asked for a shark and got the best great white in the ocean. I'd recommend them to anyone needing a professional, strong law team on their side.

Was represented by Walters Gilbreath in a divorce case. (Robert Tsai) He is strategically brilliant and equally compassionate. He is the only team you need.

Jonathan Hassell was focused on our child custody case from the moment we met. Our daughters safety was my main concern and our end result from litigation was more than satisfactory. He was always available no matter the time of day, weekends it didn’t matter. I was never alone through this process. Wouldn’t trust anyone else to help us through these difficult issues.

Priyanka Bins was outstanding. I was amazed by her knowledge of the law and work ethic. She responded to emails, texts, and calls promptly and with a great attitude. She helped me maintain my sanity during a difficult time. I felt confident with her as my counsel through the entire process.

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.

Trying to go through the name change process on my own turned into a nightmare. I hired CHA Law Group to take care of it and, from the initial phone consult to getting my certified copies of the name change order, it was stress free. Communication was excellent and they were friendly and professional throughout the process.

The consultation cost $125. However, I spent 35 mins trying to explain the custody order he had access to the entire call. Don’t waste your money.

Not sure why google isnt showing my review, but i am going to reword it then: I hired Will Shindler for a family law case. All I can say is I had a good case with good proofs, pictures, etc. He was very submissive to the opposing party and disrespectful to me and my case. He would ask me to do everything the oppossing party was asking for and would not really fight for me. Also, In family matters you have to be professional with everyone involved, these are painful moments for both parties yet he was heard many times laughing it up with the opposing party's lawyer, so much so that the oppossing party plaintiff noticed it too. I felt like all my money went down the drain, not to mention the emotional pain left after a "professional" didn't want to fight for you.

After we adopted our two children internationally, we wanted to "re-adopt" them in Texas so they could obtain Texas birth certificates. Not many family law attorneys even know this is an option for internationally adopted children. But Christine knew, and also knew exactly how to get it done quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Christine!

The CHA Law firm went out of their way when my son was dying of cancer. He only had two weeks to live when we contacted them. They spoke with him on the phone, wrote his will, came out to the house to ensure he had all his faculties, brought witnesses to the will signing at his house, and was warm and caring during his last days. As a father, you couldn’t ask for more.

    The consultation cost $125. However, I spent 35 mins trying to explain the custody order he had access to the entire call. Don’t waste your money.

    Not sure why google isnt showing my review, but i am going to reword it then: I hired Will Shindler for a family law case. All I can say is I had a good case with good proofs, pictures, etc. He was very submissive to the opposing party and disrespectful to me and my case. He would ask me to do everything the oppossing party was asking for and would not really fight for me. Also, In family matters you have to be professional with everyone involved, these are painful moments for both parties yet he was heard many times laughing it up with the opposing party's lawyer, so much so that the oppossing party plaintiff noticed it too. I felt like all my money went down the drain, not to mention the emotional pain left after a "professional" didn't want to fight for you.

    After we adopted our two children internationally, we wanted to "re-adopt" them in Texas so they could obtain Texas birth certificates. Not many family law attorneys even know this is an option for internationally adopted children. But Christine knew, and also knew exactly how to get it done quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Christine!

    The CHA Law firm went out of their way when my son was dying of cancer. He only had two weeks to live when we contacted them. They spoke with him on the phone, wrote his will, came out to the house to ensure he had all his faculties, brought witnesses to the will signing at his house, and was warm and caring during his last days. As a father, you couldn’t ask for more.

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.

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!

Always remember that your attorney is NOT your friend, no matter how much they try to act like it while you still have billable hours flowing for them. It's after the billable hours get cut off that you find out the truth.

Micah and his team are phenomenal at what they do. MIcah is very diligent about helping keep you calm during a daunting process. He not only holds you accountable to what you say is the right thing, he will push to make sure you are keeping the long term abreast of mind especially when there are children involved. There were times I confused how calm he is in the pocket with a lack of aggressiveness, but that couldn't be further from the case. When it was crunch time, he delivered without me having to compromise my principles. Micah and his team also push the most amicable way to solve issues which you may not feel good during the process, but means the world when it is over. I would highly recommend Micah and his support team especially Kimberly.

Going through the most difficult time of my life, I had the tremendous good fortune of being represented by Micah Royer. Micah invested himself in my case, my situation and my life. His integrity, expertise, and compassion eased the stress and brought clarity where I had none. Through his efforts, I was able to get through the proceedings and begin the healing process much more smoothly and with confidence that the future was full of hope. I highly recommend Micah Royer.

This review is long over due. There is no way to put into words how wonderful my experience was with Micah and Kim. Divorce was the most difficult life experience I’ve ever had to navigate. The thoughtful and caring guidance I received helped me maintain my sanity throughout the process. I was an emotional mess and unable to make decisions. I appreciated the calm and calculated approach to handling the seemingly endless and often ridiculous attacks from the Ex. Despite the circumstances I actually looked forward to meeting with my team. I can honestly say that I miss seeing my new friends at this office. Possibly more importantly, my case was settled efficiently and ethically. They say only lawyers win in court but everyone involved knows I WON this one. Micah came through in a huge way for me. I’ve passed his card on three times. I’ll continue to do so.

I hired Micah Royer to help me with child support modification and enforcement. I reside out of state, so I trusted Micah to handle everything without me ever having to be present. What is normally a fairly simple process was unsurprisingly challenging due to the other party, but Micah and his paralegal, Kim, took a very trying situation and handled it with care and ease. I always felt that Micah had my best interests in mind and was ready to do whatever was necessary to see those interests pursued. He is not only skilled at what he does, but he handles his cases with compassion and care. It is easy to see that he truly cares about his work. I would readily hire Micah again and would highly recommend him.

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.
