I reached out to 5 attorneys in the Austin area who handle will, real estate and business formation services. It's great to find a legal 'quarterback' where possible. Jeff was easy to talk to, very tech savvy and his recommendations were cost conscious. Does a great job balancing legal issues with financial priorities.

I hired Mr Slade a few years ago and the experience was pretty disappointing. Although he was nice…read moreenough and seemed competent, as the case went on I realized that he just took my case for the money, not because he thought we could actually win. So after spending thousands of dollars for nothing, I finally went elsewhere. That attorney was much more up front and let me know that it would costs thousands more and I still wouldn't have a very good chance of winning my case. I wish Mr Slade had been as up front from the beginning.

My wife and I were looking at purchasing a new construction condo and the seller used an atypical…read morepre-purchase contract filled with many hazards that exposed us to a ton of risk. I called a few other local law offices but they didn't meet my expectations in customer service nor did they inspire confidence in their experience with real estate law. Michelle helped us navigate through all the different items that no other buyers had previously caught (10% earnest money instead of the typical 1% for Austin, releasing of escrow more than 6 months before closing, no financing contingency, etc). In the end (after some negotiating), we decided to back out of the agreement. This was our first time using an attorney instead of just a buyer's agent and I'm glad we did. Spending a few billable hours with the attorney potentially saved us tens of thousands!

The US remains one of the least employee-friendly free countries in the world so looking out for your own interests can seem daunting and lonely. That's why you need the right help. I've used Ms Ward for employment advice and appreciate that she's factual and shares what she thinks might not be possible as well as what is. Too many attorneys are happy to string you along - provided you pay the appropriate retainer of course - and not tell you the reality about a proposed action you're considering. Ms Ward gives it to you clearly - as much as anyone can prior to litigation. When I seek counsel I look for experience, intelligence and empathy. Someone who sees the bigger picture, lays out options to consider and clearly articulates risks and likelihoods without a lot of emotional fear-stoking. That's why I'm happy I found her. If you think you might have an employment action on your hands, do yourself a favor: call Ms Ward's office.

I asked a friend in the business (but in a different city) about her, and the entirety of his advice was, "Shut up and listen to Michelle." Which, in retrospect, turned out to be a fantastic strategy. In real life, Michelle is an incredibly kind and thoughtful person. As a lawyer, I gave her the nickname #BeastMode because of her tenacity. She stayed on top of the case, sending me regular updates. Frankly, I wish I could've eavesdropped on some of her conversations to hear how she did what she did. I can't (can't or won't?) get into specifics, but the outcome was far better than I anticipated. She knows how to do her job, and she's going to do her darnedest to protect your best interests.
