Amazing Lawyer

I highly recommend Brandon a thousand times over. Back in July, I had contacted another lawyer who was referred to me to help me modify my child support court order. I needed to move out of state by a certain time frame to get my kid enrolled in school, so I started the process a year early knowi...ng it might take time. Long story short, this lawyer took my money and never worked on my case but made me believe he did. After he stopped answering my calls and emails, I called the court at the end of November and found out nothing had been done to my case. I was livid and furious that I had wasted so much time waiting and trusting this person was doing as he said and was paid to do! I worried I wouldn't be able to move with my child by my set time frame. In December I decided I would try to do the case modification on my own. With time running out, I changed my mind and decided maybe I should give another lawyer one more try. I found Brandon Rasley on Google...he was one of the highest-rated family lawyers in the area on Google, so I reached out to him in January. During our consultation, I found out the steps I had taken to "modify" my case were wrong and could have set me back even more time. He knew what he was talking about, so after a couple of weeks of thinking it over, I decided to hire him. He began working on my case officially on February 3rd and he finished everything on April 10th. Please note, this was in the middle of COVID-19. When most courts were closed which should have delayed the process, Brandon got my case completed in a little over 2 months! I am forever thankful. I don't even write reviews, but this one was necessary. I wanted to write this review to let others know the reviews are real. I know I can trust him and will refer him to anyone who needs a lawyer. Good to know: - If you do the initial consultation, you have to pay. If you decide to hire him, this fee is counted towards the retainer but you MUST hire him within 3 weeks of the consultation to get credit. - Brandon's follow-up is amazing. I never doubted he wasn't working on my case because he kept in touch every step of the way. - I had a straight-forward case and both parties were amicable and in agreeance. This made a world of difference in the ease of my case, I'm sure. However, even I couldn't do this on my own correctly. It's always good to call a knowledgeable professional for peace of mind...especially when you are on a time crunch like me. - Brandon worked on my case without ever meeting me in-person. As a busy single parent, this was a huge plus for me. I never had to worry about working things around my work schedule.

When it comes to Family Law, Brandon Rasely has earned my business for life. Brandon has the legal know how, and charismatic confidence, nessecarry to navigate even the trickiest circumstances; ensuring his clients' family affairs are sorted; and any legal troubles are resolved with the best poss...ible outcome. He expertly mediated our family's dispute. In the times it mattered most, Brandon moved quickly and efficiently to protect my rights to my child, and ultimately came to secure primary custody in my favor. When negotiating joint custody emotions run high and patients is thin; Brandon effortlessly found agreeable compromise in every instance, even when faced against the most- Bullheaded, Stubborn, Opposition. Should I ever need legal counsel within his realm of practice, he can count on being first on my list. Brandon Rasely Is undoubtedly among the finest in his field, and beyond question, definitely the best person in DFW to contact for counsel concerning family law.

Excellent service!

Brandon was extremely helpful during my divorce/custody case. He explained everything in detail and was very straight forward with his answers. He was quick to reply/call me when I had questions concerning my case. Brandon definitely made this process less stressful on my part and was a team player a...ll around.

Fast, Easy & Painless!

Brandon truly cares about you as his client. I knew he had not only my best interest at heart, but my children's. In fact, he always advised me on difficult divorce decisions based on what was best for my children. Brandon is so sweet, kind and very honest. He's straight forward and gets the job don...e quickly. He knew I wanted the divorce to go quickly and he made sure that it did. I filed on July 27th and my divorce was finalized on October 20th. I don't think it can get any faster than that. Brandon was always there for me by email, text and phone whenever I had questions or concerns of which I had many! I highly recommend Brandon for anybody needing to go through a divorce. He certainly makes the process less painful and aims to make it as simple for you, the client, as possible. He does all the work for you. Couldn't have asked for a better divorce attorney! Thank you, Brandon!

The Best You Can Afford!

Brandon oversaw my divorce/child custody case pretty late in the game. We efficiently discussed our game plan over a course of a month and were more than adequately prepared to win physical custody of my son. I have been overcome with tremendous gratitude towards him for so gracefully resolving my ...divorce case despite not having lots of time to preemptively prepare. I would highly recommend him for any divorce and/or child custody case, as he is considerate, flexible, diligent, and diplomatic. Furthermore, Brandon is understanding of financial constraints and worked with me on my payment arrangement. He truly does not charge enough for the results that you receive, however, he is mindful of family's budgetary restrictions. Not too often you run across a lawyer who is so patient, effective, and affordable. Win all around! :)

Family lawyer | Mar 03

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I strongly endorse Brandon. I met Brandon for the first time the other day. I mediated a difficult divorce case where Brandon represented the husband. There were several difficult issues with no good solutions. Brandon struck the perfect balance between advocacy and compromise, maintained a positive and realistic attitude, and kept his client solutions and goal oriented. He knew the law and issued excellent advise. But there's more to a great lawyer than just good advice. Brandon cared. He cared about his client. He wanted to see his client have the best outcome and worked to realize that. He understood that this was the most dire matter in his client's life and treated it with respect and attention. These are not qualities one learns in law school, but it made all the difference. Brandon's knowledge, skill, and attitude give lawyers everywhere a good name. I recommend you consult with Brandon if you seek a great lawyer that will care about you."
