My husband and I are so thankful we have South Texas Family Law to handle our wills. Making a will…read moreis not simple, it can be tricky, even if you don't have at large estate, and unnecessarily costly, if not handled correctly. We want to make sure we, as spouses, or our children, won't be burdened with legal matters at an extremely emotional time. Attorney Laura Heard, the owner of the firm, did our wills several years ago and we were very pleased! Laura has always put our needs first and has been very informative explaining estate planning. We now realize how important a will is, no matter how many assets you have. As our lives have changed, we've had to updated our wills and we wouldn't think of going anywhere else! Laura and her staff at South Texas Family Law have made us feel more than clients, like family. They're dedicated group of professionals that truly care; something you don't see much in firms today. We will continue to highly recommend Laura Heard and South Texas Law to anyone seeking high quality estate planning, probate, or any of their other family law needs. Thanks Laura!

Felt they could have done a better job of communicating not just asking for more money.

I was stuck in a crappy situation when I needed to bail out a relative of mine. They were willing to do everything they could. They walked me through the whole process, explained to me in laymen's terms so I could understand what was happening and what I was agreeing to. After my payment has been processed, they have been able to bail out my family member immediately, even before I realized that the entire the process was over. They're close to the jail so they act very fast. Would certainly recommend this bailing company for their honesty and quick reaction.

Mr. Pierce came prepared, understood the details quickly, and helped me think through options in a calm, methodical way. He advocated strongly to ensure my voice was heard and kept the focus on the best possible outcome for my child and me. He was professional, responsive, and steady throughout a high-stress process. I'm genuinely grateful for his guidance and would recommend Mr. Pierce to anyone looking for skilled, thoughtful representation.

For a man being sued for Divorce, Mr Blake Pierce became the light at the end of my long dark…read moretunnel. To be clear, I was completely blindsided by my Ex when she had me served at home while she was conveniently out. I felt lost, angry and more than a little confused by her reasoning. After some tough conversations I resolved to fight back and met with multiple attorneys, interviewing each of them until I spoke with Blake. I felt a strong empathy and he seemed to have a realistic grasp on my situation as I laid it all out for him. I took a couple of days to mull over the options and ended up selecting Blake to represent me. The reasons were clear to me. He was not the cheapest nor the most expensive Lawyer I spoke with, he was not the most tenured either but, he had a number of years practicing including time with one of the most aggressive and arrogant divorce attorneys in the city. My thought was that he would have learned a wide variety of tactics from that former office and yet he was still very empathetic and remained non-arrogant. In the end, he navigated the waters well against my Ex's attorney who was less than honorable and a mediator who was flawed and incompetent. I found a solid kinship and understanding from Blake that made me trust in him to handle my best interests with passion. Knowing how stacked the odds are against men/fathers, and how many women weaponize the children against good dads, I highly recommend Mr Blake Pierce to any men who need a knowledgable advocate in the highly biased family law system in Bexar Co. Good Luck.

By September 5th, my divorce was finalized. I loved working with Laura Castro and Pat Cruz. Both ladies were an absolute joy to work with.

I will definitely recommend them should any of my friends need a lawyer.

Do NOT use this law firm. I was recently divorced. My husband put out an emergency protective order…read moreagainst me. During the final signing of the decree, 2 dates were discussed as to when I could go to my home to retrieve my items. Unbeknownst to me, they were not listed on the divorce decree. When I arrived at my home, I was as arrested for violating the emergency protective order. The only thing Lisa could say was "sorry"! In the decree, I was awarded the car. During the final signing, I had to sign a power of attorney for my ex husband's truck and he was to sign a POA awarding me the car. Two months later and I still haven't received the POA! I asked Lisa and she told me to go to my ex's attorney and ask him. In the final signing, a verbal agreement was made that my ex would have our home on the market by the 20th of January. Two months later and the home isnt on the market. I had no idea that Lisa did put the date in the decree. I'm currently stuck with a $6,000 bill and a criminal record and I never stepped foot in front of the judge. SAVE YOUR TIME AND ENERGY. I am in the process of filing a grievance against this law firm with the bar association.

The team has been responsive and consistent about checking in with me throughout the process. They followed up with me even before I was able to begin treatment while I was pregnant, and they have continued to check in since my treatment began. They've also been helpful when I've had difficulty getting necessary documentation from my healthcare providers, which I really appreciate. Melanie in particular has been great about communication. If I call and she isn't available, she returns my calls, and she is also very responsive by email. I haven't felt like I have to constantly chase someone down just to get a response or know what's going on with my case. Since my claim hasn't been resolved yet, I'll reserve judgment on the final outcome, but based on the service, communication, and support I've received thus far, I genuinely don't have any complaints.

Elva has been more like a neighborly friend rather than part of a law firm. The entire crew have made my experience far better than I expected and easier to cope with all the stress. I'm so grateful to Carabin & Shaw and its staff for taking my case on and making this entire experience less stressful and draining. Thank you for helping me and my family!
