This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Excellent competent and empathetic

Jeff is probably the best attorney in Dallas Fort Worth in my opinion. He is diligent and thorough. He covers all the bases. He knows the law backward and forward and will give you options and good advice. You will not go wrong with Jeff. He understands everything about the process and has experience... with every type of judge or spouse you can imagine. You will be protected and that is what you want and need in a family lawyer- I highly recommend him without hesitation.

This guy will get it done

If this shark is in the waters, you better be on his side of the courtroom. Extreme professionalism. Very intelligent. As you explain your situation, he knows the exact thing to do to take care of it. He is on top of things, and you do not have to worry about this law group stalling, forgetting, or l...osing focus on your case. From the extremely wealthy clients to just average Joe families, Jeff makes you feel as if your case is his top priority. He was very patient with our lack of understanding about some client/lawyer issues, and would always explain things thoroughly. When it comes to strategy and courtroom demeanor, I doubt you will find a close equal in the metroplex. The cost is a bit high for just a regular Joe family, but we knew it was an investment in our kids that could not be overlooked by using an "okay" lawyer. If you want the best, Jeff Anderson is worth the investment. We had another attorney for many years, but we are grateful to Jeff for really helping us understand what the process should actually look like. It is not only that he is a talented attorney, many are, but Jeff has been taking in family law since he was a little boy. I doubt you will find another attorney that knows the law and its niches backwards and forwards like this guy. If you have a case that you just cannot take a chance on...call Jeff.

Well Rooted DFW Family Law Attorney

Jeff is an amazing resource for family law situations. 15 years ago he helped me with my divorce and custody battle and again in 2017 with a modification. His knowledge of and relationships with Collin County courts proved invaluable. Jeff and his team value the client relationship and has a reput...ation from both clients and the Courts for his Honesty and Integrity. He assisted me with Divorce, contested custody, mediation, social-study, possession modification, home school, temporary orders, emancipation

Outstanding Attorney

Jeff is an outstanding attorney. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. Divorce is devastating in and of itself but Jeff was always very personable and understanding throughout the entire emotional process. He even had me laughing a few times, which is good for the soul. Knowing I am a teache...r, he was very conscious of using his time wisely to get information to me. At the same time he was very thorough in every aspect of the divorce not leaving anything undone. Jeff fighting for my rights and/or needs is where his incredible talent shines. Jeff is an impressive, professional, extremely skilled lawyer. I am beyond grateful to have had him as my attorney!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Jeff is an expert in his craft...the first, last and only lawyer you will need.

Jeff Anderson, the ONDA Law Firm and his entire support staff were the ultimate professionals in managing and executing each step of the dreadful divorce process. The divorce was not something I wanted; Jeff took the time to understand the situation, my needs and wants, as well as educate me on my r...ights and the process to come. Jeff was diligent in taking on the burden a divorce creates, keeping me promptly informed with each development from opposing counsel and always protecting me and my best interests as a professional and a father. Divorce is an ugly thing that can happen for a number of reason and can have a number of outcomes for better or worse, but I couldn't imagine having a better lawyer in my corner than what I had with Jeff Anderson. Jeff, you are the best at what you do. Thank you!
