David Payne Housel Jr.

David took my case without hesitation. I was the custodial grandmother having issues with court ordered visitations as they related to a parent. The case was long and the parent made many mistakes along the way which David was quick to pick up on and communicated them effectively in court. He coached... me on my delivery in court which was helpful. He has a bite in the courtroom which is something you need. In the end we were able to terminate the parents rights...it even exceeded David's expectations. He made sure he advised us of all the things to expect even when they were not so positive...he wanted us to be prepared.

He did not inform me of what all I was entitled to. He did  not represent me, but seem to side with my spouse, you would think my spouse was paying him. I tried to get him to have a forensic CPA search for funds that were not being disclosed. I was told that was not necessary. There were pie...ces of the case that he had no idea how to handle. He did not fight for me, for things/funds that were clearly mine. I was misinformed, and uniformed through a process that I was relying on, an expert, or so I thought. Deplorable, unethical, and dishonest.

I found myself in an awful situation in my marriage that left me not knowing where my children were for seven months. My husband at the time was dating a family law paralegal that coached him on how to get custody of my kids. I was turned down by two family law attorneys before I met with David Hou...sel. He was very honest with me about my situation and told me that I had an almost impossible case to win. He said he saw something in me and agreed to take my case. He was tough, and at times I thought he didn't care. He coached me on collecting information and told me how to get myself prepared for court. I took his advice and when I went to court I ended up getting my kids against all odds. This man was a bulldog in the court room and I could never show him how much I appreciate what he did for me. If you hire him and listen to him and do your part, you will not be disappointed. I have recommended many people to him too many people over the years and they have all been very pleased.
