God Led Me to the Right Attorney--And It Changed Everything Family law is not just legal…read morepaperwork--it is your life, your peace, and your child's future. Who you choose to represent you matters more than words can fully express. Looking back, I truly believe God ordered my steps when I found Shirley Sutherland and her team. Before working with them, I was in a very difficult position. My previous attorney mishandled my case, created confusion, and left things in disarray. It was overwhelming, stressful, and honestly discouraging. Making the decision to switch attorneys felt risky at the time--but it turned out to be the most powerful and necessary decision I could have made for myself and my daughter. From day one, Shirley and Amanda stepped in with clarity, confidence, and purpose. They didn't just take over my case--they restored it. They carefully untangled every issue, corrected what had been mishandled, and built a strong foundation moving forward. Amanda is incredibly detail-oriented and thorough--nothing gets missed. Shirley is strategic, fearless, and unwavering in her pursuit of truth. Together, they create a team that is both compassionate and powerful. You can feel that they genuinely care--they carry your case with intention and treat it like it truly matters. Throughout the process, the opposing party filed repeated motions filled with inaccuracies and unnecessary conflict. But Shirley handled each one with precision and strength, consistently bringing everything back to facts and truth. Watching her stand firm and advocate so effectively gave me a level of peace I didn't think was possible during a divorce. What stood out the most was their ability to see what my case needed before I even knew to ask. Their recommendation and support in bringing in an Amicus Attorney was a turning point in ensuring my child's best interest remained the focus. That level of advocacy is rare. I have been on my knees praying to God for a specific outcome--and I have truly witnessed Him turn what the enemy meant for evil into something that worked for my good and my daughter's good. Shirley and Amanda were a part of that answered prayer, and I do not take that lightly. They are responsive, attentive, and incredibly supportive. They lifted a heavy emotional burden off of me and allowed me to focus on being present for my child. During one of the most challenging seasons of my life, they provided not just legal support--but reassurance, strength, and guidance. I can confidently say Shirley and Amanda are God-sent. The progress and outcomes I am seeing today align with prayers I have prayed in my lowest moments. If you are facing a highly contested divorce and feel overwhelmed, this is the team you want beside you. They lead with integrity, operate with excellence, and fight with purpose. I am forever grateful for them.

Will use Shirley and Amanda for any family law moving forward. Organized, thoughtful, effective and…read moregreat customer service describes them well. they made my divorce easy. I appreciate both of their help so much.

Getting divorced is brutal. Working with Alexandra Geczi and her amazing team is not brutal…read more My two decade marriage ended in 2022. I had no intention of dragging out the divorce as long as the marriage. Texas family law is as frustrating as the power grid, so I needed someone who could get the job done and represent me. I wanted a lawyer who was a woman, intelligent, direct, and not too emotional. I did not need hugs, I needed a divorce. I interviewed several attorneys to represent me. Some were nice but weak, some were rage-filled and vengeful towards the spouse, and others made me wonder what some law schools are doing with their curriculum. Alex was nothing like other lawyers. Granted, she had completed law school and undergraduate studies like everyone else I had interviewed, but she was not interested in boasting about her accomplishments (which are impressive and lengthy). As I spoke to Alex, I realized that this was the lawyer who checked all of the boxes I required and many more. She did not approach the conversation like we were part of the 300 fighting off the Persians; instead, Alex respected the fact that I wanted to keep the experience as amicable as possible. I spoke with Alex before I retained her services, and she was exactly who I wanted to represent me: female, not man-hating, direct, and an aggressive advocate for her clients. She did not ask me stupid questions, and appreciated that I had done my homework before I spoke with her. I chose to vet her background before I retained Alex to see what other people had said about her legal prowess. I have yet to find a negative review of Alex's abilities as a lawyer. Everyone was complimentary, she had no issues previous or pending with the state bar, and had enough of a digital footprint that I also was able to see podcasts that included Alex talking about family law. I retained Alex's firm. That was the best decision I made in 2022. Her team is beyond amazing. Brandy has the precision and organization of a military commander. As Director of Operations, she ensures that everything flows as it should. She is prompt, efficient, and compassionate without being syrupy sweet. Katie may be one of the smartest humans on the planet. As a paralegal, she handled most of my case details. She is ruthlessly efficient, able to anticipate my questions before I know what they are, and moves paperwork through the glacially slow wheels of justice in the Dallas court system at a shockingly quick pace. Plus, she has a sense of humor, which is required when getting a divorce. If you do not laugh at some of the stuff encountered, you will cry all the time. From retainer to the "thanks for the memories" exit call, the process lasted about 5 months. The legal portion took less than four months from filing to final decree with the notarization stamp. I have friends who are still working through the process after years of issues. Alex, Brandy, and Katie were exceptionally clear when giving directions on what I needed to do, provided paperwork that needed to be signed in a very efficient manner, and always answered the emails I sent with little waiting by me. I emailed a lot, and those emails were full of questions, directions, and sarcasm. Each question was answered, directions followed, and sarcasm met with sarcasm, so we were evenly matched. I was able to keep the divorce amicable, and spent less time on the actual process than I did deciding to file for divorce. If I go through this hellscape again, and I hope I never do, I will call Alex. I cannot imagine anyone considering divorce using any other firm.
