He is professional, trustworthy, compassionate, knowledgeable, friendly always one step ahead of the game.

Paloma, their Senior Legal Assistant, was our very first point of contact, and within minutes of meeting her we knew we were in good hands. Months later, she's still checking in -- a small gesture that says everything about how this firm treats their clients. Cristina guided us through the Adjustment of Status process with crystal-clear explanations and an uncanny ability to keep us calm. At our USCIS interview, she proved exactly why you want her by your side: at the exact right moment, she stepped in with poise, precision, and total professionalism, turning what could have been a derailment into a non-issue. We had worked with a different law firm before this, and the difference was night and day. The previous firm made critical errors -- leaving out required documents, answering key questions incorrectly -- and treated our concerns like we were inconveniencing them. The team at The Law Office of Mark Kinzler was the exact opposite: proactive, prepared, deeply invested in our success and value for money. They didn't just help us win our case. They gave us back our sense of trust in the process. That's priceless.

I was referred to Andrea Dicks (formerly Bleau) by another non-legal business professional…read more I reached out through their website, mentioning my reference and need for legal services. Amazingly, I received a thorough response within 6 minutes, even during lunch. The paralegal quoted a market hourly rate for the services they could perform, though they couldn't handle all my requests--an acceptable outcome. Unexpectedly, it was apparent I wouldn't work with my reference but instead with an unnamed associate. That limited my ability to research the professional I'd be working with. The paralegal also referred me to another firm that might meet all my needs. I felt that was a fast and efficient reply! Next, I researched the other firm, which is a large practice with many "specialties," making them seem more generalist than this firm. While the other firms' principal is well regarded, it seemed as though clients rarely work directly with her. Also, several reviews of the other firm appeared to me to be quite strident. When referring out, I think it's important to ensure the other firm can uphold your same high standards, as your reputation is linked to the quality of your recommendation. There was limited value in the contact I made since it did not directly lead to business with this firm or the referred firm. The stars are for expedient and polite response, clear and direct communication, and an attempt to be helpful. I'm going with four stars. At least they didn't waste my time in the help they were able to provide. Hopefully they can help you completely.

The legal team guided me through my divorce to end my very difficult and traumatizing marriage in a well planned and necessary process. My property since separation were proven to be separate by law because of a very thorough BDO forensic accounting report.

I free now and have been enjoying a peaceful and mostly stress free life throughout this process. No one has abused me, abused my finances, emasculated me, argued, screamed, or disrespected me at all since separation. I am very thankful of the work of Deyerle Silva Smith and to see the end of this marriage.

From the very beginning, starting in August all the way to mediation in November, she navigated me through the process in a way where everything was super clear. I always knew what the outcomes might be depending on what I decided, and she was great about laying out the options in a way that helped me when my brain was mush from work and I was checked out. Right away, Mackenzie moved to get me expanded standard possession. Every time we spoke on the phone or communicated through email, she got to the point but was detailed and clear. [This is a skill I appreciate in anyone I am paying by the hour.] Something I really, really appreciated was her handling of the funds I placed in the trust. I was sick to my stomach about the amount of money I was giving up to retain a lawyer, but also afraid of what the outcome would be if I didn't spend the money. I was absolutely justified in that in turns out. While $10k out of pocket is huge for me, it could have been so much worse and cost me so much more in terms of custody and final child support payments without her expertise. Mackenzie got me through a very long day of mediation and made it so that nothing was wasted. TL;DR: Pick Mackenzie. She won't be shady with your money, she will respond to you, she'll give you great advice without gassing you up, and she'll work hard to get the best outcome she can.

The entire team at Trusler Legal will forever be at the top of my 'favorite people on the planet'…read morelist! The prospect of filing for divorce was the most daunting time in my life. I'd been separated from my now ex-wife for 3 years. She is an attorney and the original plan was that she would draft a decree and we'd both sign and move on amicably. Unfortunately, my ex took an emotional and behavioral turn for the worst and began making outrageous claims against me, threatening to take my children away. I needed help! In researching my options, I decided to pursue the Collaborative model, which put Trusler legal on my list of candidates. I called at least a half dozen firms. Only at Trusler Legal did someone answer the phone who did NOT seem to be 'selling' me on scheduling an initial consultation, at the full hourly rate of $400-$600/hr. On the contrary. All my questions were answered with clarity and confidence. I scheduled a one hour consultation, was not charged a penny, and the consultation lasted nearly 3 hours! Cristi has expert ability to hear everything, slice through the inevitable diatribe (which must flow freely from people facing down a divorce), and set course towards productivity. I gained even more confidence when handed the clear and transparent billing model outline, allowing me to chart my own course. I was not able to pursue the Collaborative model due to the hostility and toxicity of my ex. However, Cristi helped me beyond words in navigating this quagmire. She applied reason, never pressure. While my ex was making wild claims and threatening to push our case to trial, Cristi gave me all the courage and confidence in the world. At times Cristi voiced concerns with regards to my approach and while I respected her opinion, and LOVED her willingness to go on the offensive, I was most impressed that she was able to clearly voice those concerns, explain possible consequences, but in the end apply no pressure, rather advise and do her best to accomplish my goals. My goals were accomplished! My divorce settled in mediation, on my terms. I wish divorce on NO ONE! However, it happens... I've already recommended 2 close friends to Cristi and I will continue to send people in need her way. Understanding the prohibitive cost of divorce, most of the work done on my case was done by 2 of her paralegals, saving me thousand of dollars in fees. Though, it should also be pointed out that Cristi's rate is among the lowest I found in all Austin. Trusler Legal is not just Cristi! She has surrounded herself with a bright, responsive, compassionate team. The team you want on your side if you're in need of a family law attorney. Cristi, Rebekah, Selina, Dawn, and Graydon... THANK YOU!! From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!
