Disappointed

Hired and although I didn’t get the outcome I wanted with the case, this review is to warn others of the awful communication or lack there of- I called, emailed, texted him, the legal assistant and the partner and still was not able to get in touch with him for weeks. It’s unprofessional, rude, and v...ery disappointing. I do not recommend.

Although you most certainly did NOT hire me, you quite likely did hire a former employer. I agree communication was poor there, and one of the primary reasons I left. Though you wanted to remain anonymous, my contact information is always available via the FL Bar and if you have any questions/issues I am available anytime.

Thank you!

I was having trouble finding a lawyer to take my case since everyone else in Sumpter County was already overloaded with work. Mr. Houston was gracious enough to take on my case 2 days before my hearing and got it dismissed. Without him, I would be no where.

Excellent attorney

I was facing alot of time. On a charge I never should of been arrested on in the first place. For defending myself against a firearm. Mr. Houston agreed and fought hard for a dismissal. He always responded to any questions I had in a timely manner. This was a very scary time. But at the end of the ...day. A dismissal was the out come. I would highly recommend him.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
