I definitely recommend using Mr. Powell for your legal needs. Everyone in his office is very friendly, courteous, and accommodating. Mr. Powell is very thorough, explains what's going to happen clearly so there's no confusion, and always answered my questions immediately. It was very easy to correspond through email, as well. I received a very favorable outcome in my divorce. I highly recommend hiring him!

I have retained John several times since 2009 for reoccurring issues with child custody/child support, the last ending today with a positive outcome in a court case. Each and every time he has been wonderful to work with. He explains the process in terms I can understand and communicates with me in both a professional and timely manner. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a lawyer to represent them as I would not hesitate to retain him once again if so needed.

Good communication, always available! Thanks for everything :)

Mr. Powell was extremely helpful when we needed to get a simple will done. He explained us how there is not a simple will and he was so professional and understanding. We needed to get our will done quickly and he was able to do it for us. Very trustworthy and understanding. The staff at his firm is exceptional and welcomes you in. So happy to have found him.

I retained Mr. John Powell III to represent me in my uncontested divorce. My ex-husband's attny's office tried to create conflict, delays and repeatedly filed paperwork incorrectly with the court! Throughout this stressful process, Mr. Powell was very kind, professional and calming and he made sure I was protected in this case. Mr. Powell always responded to my emails timely and his office was very helpful any time I called. I highly recommend Mr. John Powell III for all family law needs!

I had the pleasure of being represented by Mr. Alphonsus Okpara. With the help of him and Mrs. Meshalle West, I was able to resolve my matter very quickly. They were very professional, attentive to my needs from start to finish and made the entire process stress free. Mr. Okpara also helped me with legal counsel for a separate matter in which I came out successful. They provided me with the confidence of knowing they had my best interest at heart and I definitely appreciate the hard work. Ms. Kim at the front desk is very nice as well. Thanks again to everyone involved. I’m too ecstatic!

So far,as of yet, they have responded to me in a timely manner just let Meshalle and Alphonsus do their work .Alphonsus was a genuine person also listened to my WHOLE STORY completely and was real to some one like me ,i got an antennae for BS and Alphonsus was genuine not fake with me. You can't put on with me I can sense realness in a millisecond. Meshalle is working effectively behind the scenes in a timely manner for guys that think like me.Of course as of now 5 STARS.

We worked with Megan Rothermel for our adoption case and she was wonderful to work with! Very professional and responsive to any of our questions.

We hired Scott Brown for a CPS case that we knew they were in the wrong for. Scott Brown and his associates handled the case professionally and kept us up to date on everything that was going on. Today we were so happy to hear that they fully dropped the case. Thank you so much for you hard work Mr. Brown you are the best. I would highly recommend Scott M. Brown & Associates to everyone that needs an attorney.

Be prepared for paying way more than originally quoted. Lack of communication and an unnecessary long drawn out case for more money. Also I was very taken back by the unprofessional attitude from Andrea that’s in charge of accounts.

I hired Robertson through Google reviews but unfortunately I found him the worst one, who just work for only money , rude and what he says nothing can do. when I went to him he showed positive result but can’t cancel the restraining order at all. Withdraw case without communicating the client. I would never ever recommend him for anyone who wants to waste their money please Go then, non- cooperative at all.

James Robertson is an honorable man and lawyer that I had the pleasure of Knowing and working with. He’s honest and very straight forward. He welcomes you openly and asks that you’re are completely honest with him from the beginning. He helped me through my divorce with constant communication and helped me with the custody of my children. I highly recommend his services to anyone in the Brazoria County area. Thank you for all that you do and have done James!

Great attorney. Mr. Robertson helped me out in a child custody case. I'm happy to say that I now have custody of my son and my family and I are grateful for his help. He's very familiar with the system and thorough in the process.

Mr Robertson is the best lawyer I ever met. I don't think words can describe how much he helped me as I went thru my divorce. He has years of experience in family law and has served as a judge in family court as well. He knows and understands the judges are and what they consider important in family trials. He was always fair and honest and up front with me about all costs and the time for events to happen. In addition, he never told me what to do, he just gave me constant good advice about what my next step could be and then he let me choose. He always answered my questions and let me know what to expect at all times. I would not hesitate to use Mr Robertson again in legal matters, and I would give my highest recommendation to hire Mr Robertson to anyone with any legal needs in Brazoria county. He is Amazing.

I had a bad experience at my consultation. Mr. Morris was helpful enough, but said insensitive things that were not professional at all.

Thanks to him I am able to change my life and go back to school to finish my child hood dream, to be someone better for my children and give them the best life I can.

Best family law attorney around. It is extremely difficult for a man to find a good divorce and custody attorney in the State of Texas, and the Enos Law Firm knocked it out of the park for me. I recommend this law firm to anyone that has custody issues or is going through a divorce. This law firm will exceed your expectations!

Best family attorney in Houston. Got me custody of my children in Galveston county. Very tough to do. He did it as promised.

I was represented Pro Bono by this law firm. I quickly realized the lack of care within their representation. I was lied to and manipulated into signing documents in order to keep my case at low cost. When I called to question the process, I was ignored. I called back several times and finally heard back from Mr. Enos. I broke down in tears asking for answers. Mr. Enos replied, "Take your crazy self somewhere else." He used personal information to insult me when I questioned his firm. He is fully aware that I was diagnosed with PTSD from all of the abuse in my marriage. Not going to court caused irreparable damage to my family as I was never given the chance to speak with a judge about the abuse within my marriage. I was told to sign documents with promises of an eventual court date but the firm stopped returning my calls once I signed the papers. He is probably a good lawyer when he wants to be but for my case he was negligent and corrupt.

Very professional and considerate of what their clients are going through financially and emotionally.

I wish I'd done my divorce myself. They didn't return phone calls and didn't do what they said they would do in a timely manner. Overall they are pleasant to deal with. They said I would be charged a flat fee for my uncontested divorce, but turned around and charged me an extra $1000. I have heard other attorneys are much worse. Just a rip off. I guess this is par for the course with attorneys. I feel ripped off and just overall betrayed at a time of emotional strain and upheaval in my life.

Mr. Schmitz is a fantastic attorney. I contacted his office to handle my high conflict case after hiring four other attorneys. My case was very messed up, and it was highly stressful. I was delighted with the results I got in the trial. Mr. Schmitz is very knowledgeable about family law. He taught me a lot as well; I will be graduating next week in paralegal studies. He returns phone calls and emails quickly. He is personable and helped me to calm down. Mr. Schmitz restored my faith in attorneys. His paralegal, Molly, is terrific as well. He is more expensive than other attorneys, but well worth it. Do not waste money on other attorneys.

Excellent attorney. I’ve had him on retainer for the better part of 5 years. 2 modifications and one contempt hearing, and we haven’t lost yet. He is very knowledgeable, not only of what is possible but of the judges and other attorneys that he has faced over the years. I appreciate that he is not a tell you what you want to hear attorney, but will tell you the truth, and this is what you need. When our trial came up each time he was fully invested into it and came well prepared. He is efficient with time and is not going to waste your money. You really won’t find a better attorney to be on your side.

I am so grateful for the diligent representation of Wilfried Schmitz on my behalf in the following child support matters: establishment, enforcement and modification. Especially since I am an out of state respondent in the hearings in Houston, I fully trust that Wilfried comes prepared time and time again to defend my case and to ensure the reasonable goals I have are ordered by the courts in the best interests of my daughter. He's cut to the chase, here are the facts, here's what the law allows and doesn't allow type of lawyer that I will continuously rely on for all my Texas litigation needs.

Wilfried was very courteous and professional. He got my fathers right immediately with seeing my son even before going in front of the judge. He’s honest and his staff is polite! I highly recommend him and his team. I was referred to him from a well respected judge in Fort Bend which the case was in galveston county. Thank you Mr. Schmitz Frankie

When you meet Wilfried Schmitz, he has a likeable personality and a funny sense of humor - "an old country lawyer". When he walks into the courthouse everyone seems to know him and like him and he definitely doesn't come across like the Texas Hammer. But don't let his easygoing demeanor fool you. He is extremely experienced, knowledgable, intelligent and insightful and he and his staff will work tirelessly advocating on your behalf. No matter how complex the issues, he will make organization out of chaos and explore every angle in order to give you the best representation possible. I feel very fortunate I chose him to represent me in my divorce case.

He returns phone calls and emails quickly. He is personable and helped me to calm down. Mr. Schmitz restored my faith in attorneys. His paralegal, Molly, is terrific as well. He is more expensive than other attorneys, but well worth it. Do not waste money on other attorneys.

    Excellent attorney. I’ve had him on retainer for the better part of 5 years. 2 modifications and one contempt hearing, and we haven’t lost yet. He is very knowledgeable, not only of what is possible but of the judges and other attorneys that he has faced over the years. I appreciate that he is not a tell you what you want to hear attorney, but will tell you the truth, and this is what you need. When our trial came up each time he was fully invested into it and came well prepared. He is efficient with time and is not going to waste your money. You really won’t find a better attorney to be on your side.

    I am so grateful for the diligent representation of Wilfried Schmitz on my behalf in the following child support matters: establishment, enforcement and modification. Especially since I am an out of state respondent in the hearings in Houston, I fully trust that Wilfried comes prepared time and time again to defend my case and to ensure the reasonable goals I have are ordered by the courts in the best interests of my daughter. He's cut to the chase, here are the facts, here's what the law allows and doesn't allow type of lawyer that I will continuously rely on for all my Texas litigation needs.

    Wilfried was very courteous and professional. He got my fathers right immediately with seeing my son even before going in front of the judge. He’s honest and his staff is polite! I highly recommend him and his team. I was referred to him from a well respected judge in Fort Bend which the case was in galveston county. Thank you Mr. Schmitz Frankie

    When you meet Wilfried Schmitz, he has a likeable personality and a funny sense of humor - "an old country lawyer". When he walks into the courthouse everyone seems to know him and like him and he definitely doesn't come across like the Texas Hammer. But don't let his easygoing demeanor fool you. He is extremely experienced, knowledgable, intelligent and insightful and he and his staff will work tirelessly advocating on your behalf. No matter how complex the issues, he will make organization out of chaos and explore every angle in order to give you the best representation possible. I feel very fortunate I chose him to represent me in my divorce case.

These guys know the law and stay on top of it all for you. They were also the best priced. Please remember to hit the like button if my review helped you in anyway.

I was tired of the loop holes that were in my previous lawyers paperwork...so I had to bring out the big guns...aka Dennis Slate. I needed someone who would fight for me this time, and he went ba**s to the wall. The outcome really couldn't have been any better.

Best Family Lawyers In Houston, Worth Every Penny, Very Professional, Ms.Shirley Was Hands Down Amazing, Walked Me Trough The Entire Process, I Was Relieved Having Her Represent Me, Would Definitely Hire Again With Out Hesitation ❤

Hiring an attorney can be just as stressful as the situation you want representation for; thankfully Dennis was recommended by several of my clients and he did not disappoint. With our type of case we required an attorney that was both confident and direct--Dennis embodied that. I am indebted for his expertise and responsiveness. I highly recommend Dennis and his Associates.

I dismissed by agreement my 1st attorney who was a family friend because he was not brazen enough to stand up for my rights as a father and more importantly what needed to be done to protect my son from his own narcissistic psycho mother, step sister and her parents. I have been through hell and back defending against serious false criminal allegations. I thought you protect your children by monitoring their social media. My advice now, stay out of your step daughter's phone because when you catch her committing a criminal act and cheating on her boyfriend she will burn you to the ground with heinous lies. Secondly as in my case do not run a business with a woman like I married you may find out like I did that she is embezzling the payroll tax money for her own piggy bank and planning to send you off to prison to cover up her crimes while she is enjoying an affair with your son's baseball coach. There are thousands of attorneys to choose from but you need a professional like Dennis Slate. If you want an attorney who will do what is in the best interest of your child and make sure you are not jerked around by the opposing counsel then hire Dennis Slate! Dennis and his firm are the team you need. Their are no words sufficient enough to express my deep gratitude of how Dennis used documented evidence and his skill to finally return my son to me. Dennis also has a paralegal Ryann and she is a very skilled intricate part of the Slate team! Take it from me Dennis Slate delivers and he cuts out the unnecessary BS in the system when possible and he doesn't let opposing counsel run the show by any means! He may be a man of few words but he is a bull dog in court and he quickly shreds liars on the witness stand.

I highly recommend Ramos Law. They were compassionate and protected my rights. What I appreciated most is their transparent fee schedules and billing. I always knew where we stood from a cost perspective, and on our progress on the case.

Very professional and very smart. Handled a mediation case and it went great. I would recommend to anybody. Great job my friend.

My family is very blessed to have found this law firm. They truly have your best interest. From our experience they are honest about how they spend your payments and are not greedy like other attorneys/lawyers. That is hard to find. You don't have to worry about the situation with them. They stay on top and keep you updated.

I hired Mary Ramos for my divorce matter and came back to her for my child support matter. Great attorney. Very knowledgeable in family law. She knows how to handle difficult opposing sides. The mother of my children was not an easy person to deal with, but Mary knew exactly how to work around her attitude. She is definitely an attorney who cares about father's rights. I will always recommend her to everyone I know who needs help with family law matters. Thankfully I have my kids living with me and I get to be such a hands on dad because of her. Since my case has been completed, I hear she's become board certified and won a few awards. Late congrats to her on her success. Her staff is great as well, I'm sure that helps contribute to her success. Do yourself a favor and hire her to do the job right.

Mary is one of the absolute best family lawyers in Houston. I retained her services for a very nasty custody modification my child's father brought against me that had mountains of allegations and spanned nearly five years. She was my fourth attorney on this ugly case. She is very smart and knows the law. She was able to quickly see issues and apply law where three previous attorneys had overlooked. She is direct and tells her clients what they need know, even if they don't agree (and you really need this). She devised a trial strategy that I initially didn't agree with, but we prevailed thanks to her experience and guidance. Her staff is incredible. They are very well organized and very responsive, ensuring that we followed all court rules in a timely manner and that our trial exhibits and support were ready. I was facing what every other super lawyer in Houston had told me was an impossible case to win, but Mary pulled me through. I owe her and her firm everything. She really is the best of the best.

Where to start about Rebecca Rowland. She eagerly misrepresents facts in court and she made a very homophobic remark to me on the second phone call and I immediately called her out for it. In return, Rowland attempted to use her position as appointed amicus to get even with me. Rowland’s unmitigated rage at me caused her to openly and blatantly misrepresent verifiable facts to the court. And with my background in criminal investigations for the Army, I had this “lawyer” pegged from the start. Rowland lied to me twice on the very first phone call . She lied about taking the virus seriously, even though all 6 visits to my ex husbands house was without a mask on, as well as her unprofessional attitude about her refusal to contact another teenager that lived in the house, as well as allowing witness tampering In my opinion.. I gave Rowland information regarding a domestic abuse issue going on at my ex husbands house and it took her close to two weeks to go over to my ex husbands apartment to investigate, AFTER informing my ex husband of the reason why she was coming to his house. Ex husband immediately grounded our daughter from talking to her own mother, otherwise known as witness tampering, After realizing the unprofessional, and truth defying nature of Rowland, I immediately started to BCC ALL of the correspondence between Rowland and I to the court coordinator (I highly recommend this tactic) to lessen the “she said” “she said” scenario I knew was about to unfold. Rowland absolutely refused to come to my home for a home visit, as is required, and then attempted to misrepresent the facts in court saying I only gave her one weekend to visit. Except, I gave 4 weekends and when I told her that I had BCC the court coordinator on the three emails that offered up 4 weekends to include screen shots of the texts I sent as well (knowing all too well she would lattempt to slander and misrepresent the facts and just say she didn’t get the email, which is exactly what she did) offering up four weekends. Rowland’s bias was on full aggressive display at final trial before she was discharged and a new court representative appointed. I find Rowland’s behavior unprofessional, obstinate, vindictive and wholly biased towards my ex husband. Her lack of moral fiber and character is an absolute stain on the legal community as well as the courts. I absolutely believe she used my child as a tool to punish me, and every judge should know what she does and how she conducts herself. Rowlands rates may be cheaper than other attorneys out there, but you get exactly what you pay for with Rowland. Rowlands total lack of communication and professionalism with me as pro se, and the court is extremely alarming and a full investigation should be conducted into her behavior immediately. I of course will follow this all up with the Texas State Bar.

I highly recommend Ms Rebecca Rowland to any father that needs an attorney to stand up in court with them and fights for what is right. Wrong is wrong and the court will see it please don’t hesitate to call ms Rebecca she’s very smart and you can’t put a price on dependability when it comes to paying for someone’s profession I had plenty of bad experiences but here believe me everything will be fair and she will not hold back on anything you need to hear straight up with no filter ain’t scared of anything a real fighter but please listen to everything she has to say and have your facts in place and everything will be fine here with Ms Rebecca Rowland 5⭐️

Rebecca is hands down the best attorney I have ever encountered.

Smart and easy to work with.

I'm very pleased with Rowland Law Firm. They keep me informed through the process and made sure to answer any of my questions I had. From the very moment we begin Rebecca is an excellent communicator trustworthy and honest I'm so grateful to found her. The paralegals are incredible extremely fast to respond they're courteous intelligent and they will go above and beyond my expectations throughout the entire process very helpful and understanding of my case Roland Law Firm is in a A+ Attorney office
