Definitely recommend!!

Lance Owens at OMG law firm has been my attorney for 4 years trough 4 cases involving the custody of my grandkids. Each time we are in court I am more impressed with his skill. The last time was amazing. During his opening statement he used his knowledge of the laws and procedures to lead the opposin...g counsel into a trap with the skill of a chess master making them think all the while it was their idea. Then during cross examination with the aggression of a Pit Bull he destroyed their witnesses exposing their lies and establishing the facts that he had planed to with our witnesses so much so that he did not even have to call ours. The victory was total he got every thing we ask for and they got nothing. Even the other attorney's in the room were impressed. The best thing I ever did for my grandkids was to retain OMG and Lance Owens. Mister Owens is an excellent lawyer with a fantastic staff that truly care about their clients. Judge's respect him, attorney's fear him, and clients love him. The best reason to retain OMG and Lance Owens is because you do not want your adversary to. You do not want to be cross examined by Lance Owens

Complicated visitation/custody

Lance has went above and beyond on my case. He has answered questions, been patient, took additional time to prepare. Was reassuring, caring and didnt back down when things got heated.

Divorce Win

I highly recommend Lance Owens. He represented me well and the outcome was above what I expected. He stood by my side and was aggressive. He won’t settle for less then a win. Come prepared to win and know you are in GOOD HANDS!!! His staff is very helpful and kind as well. I will NEVER use anyone but... him when I need a win!!!

Awesome Attorney

Mr. Owens has been so great. He has resolved the legal issues I’ve faced without going to court and resolved them in a timely manner. Would recommend his legal advice and services for your legal needs. He will be there for you every step of the way.

Lance Owens

You will not find an attorney that is more prepared for court than Lance Owens. You do not want to go up against him!!! He exposed lies within minutes due to his preparation and talent in the courtroom. He exceeded my expectations before, during, and even after going to court. It was not uncommon for... him to check in on me and the situation due to the level of stress it involved. He was able to achieve what very few attorneys are able to. The outcome was even more than I had been praying for. Lance helped keep me calm through the entire process and kept me up to date on even the small things involved in my case. I can not recommend him enough- I am so very thankful for his help and dedication to my case. His work has changed my life and allowed me to slowly get back to the person I was before all this started!
