Best Divorce Attorrney Ever!!!!

In life you never think that you have to deal with a divorce especially when children are involved. When it was time for me to deal with this difficult decision, I must say that Hannah was by far the most professional, knowledgeable, structured and detailed oriented attorney. She responded promptly t...o emails, answers calls even on the weekend, never missed a court date, detailed in her court documents and exceptional during court appearances. There were times where I wanted to give up but she encouraged me and gave me the support not just as an attorney but a friend. After almost three years of dealing with the courts and opposing counsel, she was able to finalize my divorce with everything I wanted especially making sure my child was taken care of. I would recommend Hannah anytime to anyone who has family issues. She is truly the best!!!! Thank you Hannah for everything and I will never forget you.

So thankful for Hannah

After consulting with numerous attorney's in the area, many of which said they couldn't help me in my "interesting, difficult case", I was finally (and thankfully) referred to Hannah. She took a look at the issues and quickly laid out the next steps. Although my divorce had been stalled for over ...a year, within 2 months she had it finalized and in my favor (more than I was hoping for). She is smart, fair, honest and caring. I adore this woman, and am grateful that God sent her to help in what was otherwise a nightmare.

Hannah Handles

Hannah has been my lawyer on-and-off since 2011 first for my divorce and continuing through child custody and harassment charges by my now ex husbands "affair partner" and his now wife. She has work endlessly and tirelessly on my behalf. Like the others have said with humor, but mostly a love for w...hat is just and correct. I am so appreciative of her representation that I see an end to my discord with my ex and his now wife. If it weren't for her I wouldn't be able to say that. If considering a lawyer I highly recommend Hannah Stroud.

Hannah Stroud is the Best!

I really did not want to like this woman. First off, I have a general distaste for attorneys in general. In my experience they're, for the most part... Careless, money hungry, egotistical jerks... And the only ones to win in any case. Not to mention, this woman was representing my ex husband who w...as blindsiding me with a divorce I did NOT want! But as I got to know Hannah, I began to see how humble she is. She works very hard and is really smart! In addition, although she could not offer me legal advice she was very respectful, kind and fair to me. I felt that she truly cared about my children, because she worked so hard to help us peacefully mediate with out a long and costly trial... Which really would have paid her more. She is an excellent listener! She is compassionate and strong both! She handled things with tact, and humor! I cried and laughed both in the process, which I did not expect! Each time we would hit a road block in our negotiations I thought for sure we'd end up in court, but she was so good at finding fair solutions and compromises! My ex husband and I were able to hug before leaving mediation, and part ways in a respectable manner. That really meant a lot to me! I appreciated that Hannah did not encourage fighting and discord because it hurts the children most of all, financially and emotionally! I can't say enough good things about this woman! I would hire hire her in a second, I wish I had... But my ex beat me to it! I would refer her in a heartbeat!

My Lawyer Mrs. Stroud

I first met and hired Mrs. Stroud in 2011 to handle my divorce. I live and work overseas, so going through a divorce in Texas while living in the U.A.E. was a very stressful time. Mrs. Stroud made it so much easier, communication with her was excellent, she kept me well informed and up to date at a...ll times. I felt she really was invested in my outcome. I was so impressed and happy with Mrs. Stroud that I have hired her several more times for other legal issues and counsel. As I continue to work overseas, I have been able to send Mrs. Stroud an email about any legal query I've come across. Each and every time she responds immediately, I know she is a busy person but she makes me feel like I'm important. I not only plan on keeping her as my lawyer for as long as she is willing. I consider Hannah a good friend as well. I can honestly say I trust and believe in Hannah Stroud. I will and have recommended her to others. Mrs. Stroud is not the only Lawyer I've ever hired, but she is the only one I would take the time to write about.
