This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

BEST IN DFW

Abby has been working on behalf of myself and my children for over five years now through several family law matters including divorce and I find her to be exceptionally honest, thorough, efficient, knowledgeable and caring. If you need family law help in Texas, Abby is the lawyer you should have wo...rking for you! I recommend her to anyone and will continue to hire her in the future as needed. She truly cares about her clients as if they are friends. Her team is exceptional as well and manages tasks in a way most financially responsible for clients.

I wish I could give 10 stars

My experience with Abby was the best I have had with any professional in any situation in my life. I had been sued for divorce unexpectedly, was told by other attorneys that due to the fact that I was sued in Texas and I live in Tennessee I was basically had no rights. A fine Memphis lawyer friend re...commended Abby to me. Abby was more than an excellent attorney, she treated me like a friend. She unraveled this ball of yarn, uncovered hidden information, left no stone uncovered. She was kind to both parties, batted completely for me, got other professionals involved to protect me, took care of me when I had to go to Texas for a hearing...she made a horrible experience most pleasant. The final outcome left me generously rewarded. I am very grateful.

Honest and professional

Abby and her team were amazing! They helped me in my custody case. She was upfront and honest about her fees, the probable outcome of the case, the likelihood of my ex paying my fees and never once suggested the truth be stretched. She was all about what was best for my child first then me, that's th...ey way it should be. She always kept me informed, giving me advice and keeping me calm when the opposing attorney was untactful and unprofessional. Abby and her team won my case with their head held high and with dignity.

Very Highly Recommend

Abby is both an exceptional attorney and a genuinely good person. She helped me achieve a positive resolution to a family matter which she characterized as (truly) a "unique case." She was strategic, practical, patient, thorough and very detail oriented in handling all aspects of my case. She was als...o generally unflappable and conducted herself in a very professional, no-nonsense fashion. I fully intend to refer Abby to friends who end up requiring family law counsel. My kids and I thank you, Abby.

Highly Recommend

Abby is an effective and extremely competent attorney. She worked with me on some very complicated divorce issues related to military divorce. She is compassionate and thoughtful regarding custody issues and the well being and future of the children in a divorce. Abby is professional, responsive, cou...rteous and a very talented litigator. She is effective and professional in the courtroom and enjoys a stellar reputation with judges in each county in which she practices. She is also exceptional technically, has a keen knowledge of the law and her pleadings were flawless. She analyzed all aspects of my case and made sure all orders and agreements were appropriate and that there were no outstanding issues for appeal or future litigation. Abby thoroughly and professionally represented me and I would highly recommend her in any family law, divorce, custody or prenup case. I am also an attorney and know that she did the absolute best job she could on my case.
