Modify Child Support

The Rivera Law Firm did a great job on everything! Justin kept me very informed about the status of my case and was quick to respond to my messages. Justin was very accommodating with my work schedule so we could meet after-hours to discuss my case. While I did not think it would be possible, Just...in was able to reach an agreement with the other party where I got everything I asked for. I didn’t even have to go to court once! I couldn’t be any happier with Justin’s quickness and my satisfaction for the time Justin put into my case. I will recommend this Law Firm in a heartbeat!

Paternity

The service at The Rivera Law Firm was excellent! Justin Rivera did everything he could for me so I could see my kids after the mom tried to keep them from me. I want to thank him for everything he did for me and my case.

Child Visitation Enforcement

Justin Rivera was a tremendous help! My ex-wife would not let me see my kids when our court order said I could. I tried everything until I finally got fed up. So, I hired Justin who was referred by one of my friends. During our initial consultation, Justin explained the entire process so I was... comfortable with knowing how things would work out. Justin took his time to prepare me for court and even gave me his questions he was going to ask. When we went to court and had our hearing, I did not feel lost or scared because everything happened the way Justin explained it to me. In the end, the Judge ruled in our favor. Luckily, I am able to see my kids without any problems from my ex-wife. Justin has even prepared me for if my wife starts to give me problems again. I hope I don't, but if I have any problems, I will call Justin at The Rivera Law Firm.

Child Support and Visitation

I am so glad I went with Justin Rivera. I thought I could handle my case by myself when I was served by the Attorney General. When I was told that my girlfriend was making crazy claims, I knew I needed help. I called Justin, and he was able to go over the process in detail. When we went to our... court hearing, I didn't feel lost because Justin explained how everything would happen. In the end, Justin saved me a ton of money because my girlfriend claimed I never gave her any money for our son. Justin was quick to explain how that was not true, and showed the Attorney General all my evidence. I am so thankful for Justin Rivera and his office. If I ever need any help, I know to call Justin!

Highly Recommend for Divorce!

My husband and I tried to represent ourselves in our divorce since we both agreed on everything. We found some forms online and thought we had everything we needed. When we went to court, the judge told us our file was not complete and to come back when everything was ready. We went back two more ...times thinking we did everything right. The judge got a little more irritated with us each time. Instead of trying to keep doing it ourselves, we went to The Rivera Law Firm that was down a few blocks from the Kaufman courthouse. Justin was able to speak with us that day. After going over what was happening, Justin filed all the documents we needed and was ready for us to prove up our divorce the next day! With all that time wasted trying to do it ourselves, I would recommend hiring Justin Rivera to represent you in your divorce or at least have him write all the documents you will need. His fees are way lower than most other attorneys, and he definitely got our divorce done fast!
