Divorce/Custody Representation

Mr. Owens is currently representing me in an extremely complicated and challenging divorce. He is not afraid to stand up against a family that thought they could use their power and job status to intimidate us. He has worked and continues to work tirelessly to do whatever it will take to protect my c...hild and give us the life we deserve. He made sure I was more than prepared at the initial hearing, has checked up on me throughout this process, and more importantly, given me peace of mind in a time I needed it most. His knowledge and tenacity are unmatched in the courtroom. I can truly tell he cares about his clients and would recommend him infinite times over for any matter needing legal representation.

Fantastic Attorney

I am so grateful to Lance Owens for all of his hard work and dedication on our family law matter. He went above and beyond for us, meeting us on weekends, working into the night on our case to make sure everything was prepared, he gave us excellent advice on things to have prepared for court. In cou...rt he is even better. You definitely want him on your side in the court room, he missed no details in his cross examination and was truly incredible. His staff , Phyllis and Tami, and also his wife Lisa worked tirelessly to make sure we were updated and to get anything else we needed. They were always quick to respond and they are just an exceptional group of people to work together with. Thank you all so much!!!

Peace of mind!

I contacted Lance Owens because he came highly recommended. I was seeking legal advice and assistance on how to handle all of my affairs after joining the Army. I only had 9 days to get everything in order and Lance had everything ready in just a few days. Thank you Lance for giving me peace of mind ...while serving! God Bless you.
