Roberto was very responsive. We've called over 30 lawyers in central TX about our issues with our…read morecustom new home build. All of them kept telling us it'll take 24-48 hours and we'd wait and get no call backs. We'd even offer to pay for consultation services if we could just talk to someone to figure out what we should do. We were having issues with our GC and needed clarification and advice on what we needed to do to resolve our conflicts. Our GC demanded we pay extra costs on our new home build (which we've never talked about, nor agreed to). We're at the 95% finish rate. We've paid all our drawers on time and basically the exterior of the home is almost done, but the GC wants to charge us another $12,000 for labor and supply we've never talked about. Throwing out fees/dues right as we are literally at the end game! So much so that they're threatening us if we don't pay, they're walking off job! Pathetic and so unfair on so many levels! Although, I wasn't able to hire Roberto to work on my case, because after talking to him and explaining what had happened and the legal avenues we could take, in the end, we'd end up paying so much more than $12,000. It's sad that we have to pay our hard earned money to a pathetic -and conniving General Contractor. I will say, for Roberto to pick up and actually spend 20 mins to advise to us about what we should and shouldn't, do, is just awesome. He didn't hesitate to help , listen to our issues, and the key thing is, he actually cared enough to help and advise. I can tell his customer service is great, because he picked up his phone automatically and actually wants to help people! I believe he would make a great lawyer and his number is stored in my phone if and when I do need one. Or if someone needs recommendations for a good lawyer! Thank you Roberto for taking the time to talk to my husband and I today! We truly appreciate your kindness!

We found ourselves in need of legal counsel regarding a substantial earnest money dispute that…read morearose in a terminated home purchase. Roberto was extremely helpful in bringing us up to speed on the legal process. He also provided excellent legal advice assessing the merits of both sides of the case, which helped us a lot in understanding the probability of a favorable outcome if things went to mediation or to court. Ultimately, his advice was critical in us having confidence in standing our ground and reaching a favorable outcome. The legal advice was worth 5 stars, and his fees are very reasonable. Unfortunately, I also have to deduct 1 star because Roberto missed a couple of calls that I had scheduled with him, so it wasn't a flawless experience working with him. Perhaps it was a crazy busy week, and sometimes busy attorneys do get stuck in court or some other higher priority meeting. In those cases, it would have been better to get a text message or some communication from his office. However, I had to call his office both times to find out what was going on and reschedule. That being said, I would absolutely recommend Roberto to others and would definitely turn to him for legal advice in the future if needed.

We found Ms. Lockett via our Deloitte Met Life Legal Plan (meaning, she was listed as a…read moreparticipating vendor in several practice areas). We scheduled a 20 min consultation call that ran to an hour, delayed due to her technical issues (taking a consultation call from her car, which lead to bad internet connectivity). She indicated she would accept our case as she accepted 5 tax protest cases per year, and we would be number 4. We sent an email expressing our interest in retaining her, and 6 emails and 1 month later, we have not heard anything. A simple "no" would have sufficed so we could move on, given the timeliness of this matter. She not only wasted our time, but also indicates her lack of integrity for agreeing to participate in a program and not following through. As an attorney myself, that is simply unprofessional and I feel obligated to leave my first ever negative review (and frankly, probably my 3rd review overall). In the law, communication, accountability, reliability and ethical practice matter.

I recently used the legal services of the Law Office of Elizabeth Lockett, PLLC, and my experience…read morewas quite disappointing, primarily due to a severe lack of communication. In March I hired Ms. Lockett to create a basic will with accompanying documents, and I agreed to and paid the flat rate fee that she charged for her services. In the beginning she was very responsive, but as we went further along in the process, communication on her end became a major issue. Despite numerous attempts to reach out, I often found myself waiting weeks to receive responses to my emails and calls. This lack of timely communication caused significant delays and added unnecessary stress to a process that should've been straightforward. We started working on my will in March, and I did not receive my final documents till the end of September, which is unacceptable given the fact that my will is pretty straightforward. We were at the tail end of my process, and I simply wanted to review the final documents that she promised me over a month ago. Despite several phone calls and emails, I finally received a prompt response when I informed her that I would no longer be needing her services since I hadn't heard from her in over a month. In her response she attached my final documents and mentioned that I received a text from her automated system to my missed calls to book an appointment. Why would I need to book an appointment to chat to receive final documents that she promised me over a month ago? Her immediate response to my email terminating services confirmed that she was indeed ignoring my calls and emails, and that although I had paid her in full months ago, I was put on the back burner. Overall, I was extremely disappointed with the lack of professionalism and communication provided by The Law Office of Elizabeth Lockett, PLLC.

Nancy or Marie ALWAYS returned phone calls , emails and texts within 24 hours if not the same day. From our first meeting, Nancy took control of the situation. I was a mess, the staff kept me calm throughout the whole process. I can not say enough good things about Ms Eaton and Marie Benjamin. if your tired of trying to get a hold of your attorney. if your tired of trying to do it yourself. If you're ready for integrity, honesty and accountability, give Ms Eaton and her staff a call. Thanks Ms Eaton for all your help. Michael Huls

This review documents the ongoing pattern of inaction, lack of urgency, and failure to meet basic…read moreprofessional standards exhibited by Nancy throughout her involvement in my case. Her conduct significantly harmed my ability to protect my rights and my daughter's well-being during a highly sensitive and urgent legal process. 1. Failure to Act During an Emergency I approached Nancy desperate and in an emergency situation involving my divorce and my daughter's safety. I made it clear that immediate legal intervention was needed. Despite the urgency, Nancy took no meaningful action to address the situation or to move the case forward. 2. Ignoring Violations of the Temporary Orders I repeatedly informed Nancy about multiple violations of the Temporary Orders, providing details and evidence. She failed to: * file any motions, * advise me on immediate remedies, * notify the court, * or take any steps to enforce the orders or protect my parental rights. Her lack of response left me vulnerable during moments that required urgent legal action. 3. Failure to Present Key Evidence in Court One of the most serious issues was that Nancy did not present crucial evidence in court, evidence that was necessary to support my claims, demonstrate the violations, and show the pattern of behavior affecting my child and this case. This omission directly weakened my position and affected the court's ability to fully understand the facts. 4. Lack of Follow-Through and Progress Throughout her time on my case, Nancy did not prepare essential filings, did not follow up on critical issues, and did not provide a timeline or structure for how we would proceed. The case stagnated under her management. 5. Poor Communication Nancy consistently failed to respond promptly to messages--sometimes not responding at all--especially when the matters were time-sensitive or related to court deadlines. This forced me to handle complicated legal issues without proper support. 6. No Strategy or Guidance Despite my requests for direction, she did not offer a clear strategy, actionable advice, or explanation of the steps needed in my case. I was left without proper representation during a complex legal process. 7. Withdrawal Only After Being Confronted It was only after I confronted her about her inaction and lack of results that she expressed the desire to withdraw from my case. This timing demonstrates avoidance of accountability rather than a professional decision made in my best interest. 8. Harm Caused to My Case Because of her negligence: * evidence was not presented, * violations were ignored, * deadlines were missed or delayed, * and my legal position was weakened unnecessarily. Her inaction caused avoidable stress, confusion, and disadvantage at critical moments. Conclusion Nancy's failure to act during an emergency, her refusal to address violations of the Temporary Orders, and her omission of key evidence in court represent serious breaches of professional duty. This review is submitted to document the harm caused by her inaction and to ensure that future representation meets the standard required to protect my rights and my daughter's well-being.
