David Payne Housel Jr.

David represented me in a divorce case that involved a child. I am a very detailed person and I like to be educated and informed of all of my options before moving forward. I had a consultation with David once and he was very upfront about how getting what I wanted with my child was highly unlikely g...iven the circumstances. As time went on and circumstances changed, he was quick to act and assured me that me and my child would be safe. He is a licensed counselor and knows what he's talking about. He has been forward thinking and educates me on potential outcomes in the future. My divorce was finalized in fall of 2019, and he has still been very supportive and informative of my options when I've had concerns about mine and my son's safety physically, mentally, and emotionally. I feel he truly wants to protect his clients and has their best interest in mind.

David represented my ex-husband in our divorce case and I represented myself. It was a matter of difference in ability to pay for legal representation. I honestly kept expecting something bad to happen in the proceedings; some rug that would be pulled out from under me. David clearly had my husband...'s interests as his #1 priority; but he treated me professionally, kindly, and with respect. He was helpful, fair, prompt. He upheld legal and court ethics and was just a pleasant person. I was impressed by David and his team during a difficult time. I thought I'd let you all know - from the other spouse's side, especially if you want to have your divorce proceedings go smoothly and quickly for both parties.

David and his team were extremely prompt in responding to my situation which required immediate action. With every interaction I felt that my case was important and received quick response every single time! Every email, text and call has been returned or responded to! Every time we went to court,... I had zero doubt that David would do everything in his power to make sure my rights were supported and heard by the court. David is extremely professional and will truly fight for what is right! I would strongly recommend David and his team if you are looking for someone that is not only up for the fight but looks forward to enforcing what is right. He truly cared about the outcome and the well being of me and my children's lives. David was also extremely honest with me about what could be any anticipated outcomes through the process of our situation which I appreciated! Having David on my side brought me confidence that I was finally being heard! He truly supported my wishes and made them a reality!

David was recommended to me after months of attempting to navigate a divorce by myself. Immediately after the first consultation, I was reminded why we leave some things to professionals. He got a temperature on my situation, then gave me a solid and honest perspective and high-level plan of action. ...Without David, I would have been stuck in an endless back-and-forth of a manipulative and abusive relationship. He's clear, knowledgeable, and experienced. In addition, he may come off as soft-spoken and sweet at first, but he focuses on the FACTS of the LAW and that's where his "bite" exists. Knowledge truly IS power. Several months after my divorce was final, David is still personable and checks in to see how me and my kids are doing. As long as David Housel is practicing, I will be trusting him with my Family Law needs.
