Turned my case around

I am a father of a child under 3, and I was facing the prospect of reduced parenting time, being relegated to a weekend only dad that pays guideline child support. My situation was further complicated by a biased custody evaluation that was intentionally skewed against me. All of that, despite my con...sistent and active involvement in my son’s life from the moment I learned of the pregnancy. Additionally, I hadn’t done anything wrong, and there was nothing negative about me. Enter Ryan—a game-changer who turned my case around. Ryan’s preparation for my case was thorough and strategic. He is very good at selecting compelling evidence and coming up with an effective Case Strategy. His approach was aggressive, yet he never appeared as such due to his sharp intellect. In the courtroom, his skill in cross-examination was obvious, he exposed inconsistencies and undermined the credibility of witnesses. His questioning was both precise and effective. Outside the courtroom, Ryan meticulously reviewed every document and piece of evidence. His communication was always clear, informative, and responsive. I consistently felt that he sought the best possible outcome for me and my son, rather than focusing on maximizing his fees. Ryan handled my case brilliantly. He secured a 50/50 custody arrangement very early and then played the long game. He timed the discovery process just right, showing that we were prepared to go to trial if mediation failed, and hinted that we were confident with the evidence we had for trial. Thanks to Ryan, my case settled in mediation. I am happy with the result, having achieved most of my objectives with just a few small compromises necessary to reach an agreement. Had we gone to trial, I was confident that we were likely to win. Thanks Ryan, for what you did for me and my son.

Great Attorney

Would highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for an outstanding divorce attorney. He was extremely through, responsive, candid and understanding. Could not ask for a better attorney to represent my interests and be on top of all the key details.

Professional & Candid

From the beginning of a very challenging divorce, Ryan has always considered the best interest of my children and me. I highly recommend leveraging Ryan - especially if you know that your case is going to be difficult. It is nice knowing that there are still lawyers that have a heart and can empathiz...e with their clients. It is also nice to know that Ryan never steered me in a spiteful direction that could have led to more turmoil in my co-parenting relationship, despite the opposing party attempting to leverage every low-blow possible. Ryan is professional and candid - this proves to be imperative and invaluable when walking into an environment that is otherwise unchartered.

Very Professional Counsel

We reached out to Ryan’s firm to assist with a case that Tarrant County had jurisdiction over. We reside in Louisiana and we thought this would be a pain just because of the distance; however, Ryan and his team were engaged and accessible from the beginning. Ryan answered every question we had, and h...e truly “advised” us of the best solution…not just letting us run crazy, spending all kinds of unnecessary money. From the beginning of the case to the closing, we felt comfortable and confident that our case was being handled fairly and that our best interests were represented. We were always aware of the status of our case. The opposing party was difficult, to say the least, and we warned Ryan of this prior to him taking the case. I think even he was surprised at how accurate we were in that description BUT that did not change his level of professionalism, although I am sure his level of patience was often tried and tested. While I hope we NEVER have to use his services again in the future, he will be the first person we call if we should have a Texas Family Court matter to resolve. We are extremely pleased and highly recommend him as an attorney to consider within the Dallas area. Thank you for all that you’ve done in helping us close this chapter in our lives so that we are able to move forward and continue to build our family!

Professional & Attentive

From the moment I met with Mr. Segall, I was impressed with his professionalism as well as his ability to pay attention to close details. Mr. Segall has an incredible way of listening and understanding his client's needs. He wrote down everything I mentioned to him during our first consultation and m...ade sure I was up-to-date with the process. He took care of my case very promptly and communicated well with me throughout the entire time. I would highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a humane, professional, attentive, and capable attorney.
