Posted by Wayne | September 12, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Wonderful, down to earth,and very Professional

I hired Katie to represent me in the custody battle for my daughter when searching Attorney's that represent fathers. I had hired two lawyers before her and they were absolutely awful. After spending thousands of dollars on two wasted attorneys, I finally came across to Katie's profile. In the end, I... couldn't be happier with my choice. I knew that it would be an uphill battle because their is a theory that the judge sides with the mother. Katie explains everything in detail and is very honest about her thoughts and opinions. After multiple sessions in the court room, she assisted me in getting full custody of my child, which I just never thought I would actually get. The mother actually doesn't have a set schedule either, it has to be agreed upon with the child. (which my child is now a teen) which eases my mind since the mother and my child never had a positive relationship from the start. It was a very stressful process but she eased my mind and helped me to push through. I would recommend her to any absolutely anyone who would listen. The two previous attorneys, left me with no hope, but with Katie, I could see the light at the end of my tunnel. She's so easy to get along with and she doesn't make you feel uneducated if you don't know the court system. I am so glad I found her and I hope that she can help others out like she did me!

Excellent Divorce Attorney

My son needed an attorney quickly to represent him in a divorce suit. Not having much time, nor being familiar with a divorce attorney in Dallas, I panicked. I turned to the computer and searched for The top ten divorce lawyers in Dallas, County. The first name on the list was O'Neil Law Firm. They h...ad a rating of 10. After reading several other reviews on other law firms, I kept going back to the first one. I called their office and set up an appointment with Katie Lewis. From the start Katie was very professional, caring, compassionate, knowledgable and a pleasure to be around. Katie was on top in every aspect in preparing for the temporary hearing. She kept us informed on everything and made sure we understood everything. Katie helped us get the information we/she needed to prepare and handle the case. Katie was patient and understanding if we needed more time to find information for her and would even offer us an alternative solution. Katie really cares about her clients and their needs. As for the hearing Katie was very well prepared, very knowledgable of the law. We knew we had some hurdles to jump and that the outcome might not be what we wanted, but because of Katie's knowledge, professionalism and her commitment to her client we got an awesome outcome! Katie is very respectful to everyone, the judge, the opposing attorney, her clients. Katie is an absolute pleasure to work with and be in the presence of. I thank God for making that first phone call and him connecting us to Katie Lewis. I would rate Katie a 10! I would also like to say everyone we came in contact with at the O'Neil Law Firm is very professional, courteous and friendly!

Personal Review of Katie Lewis

When I first met Katie was in 2008 and I was filing for divorce. Katie was very professional from the very first time that we met to discuss my case. She is very well versed with the law, understands how to handle herself in the court room, and is very confident with what she is doing. I believe that... this confidence comes from her knowledge of the law. She had a complete understanding of my case and knew the challenges that we were going to be facing. I was asking for joint custody of my son, and being a man asking the court to grant that has its own set of challenges. Katie always kept me informed and updated on the status of my three and half year divorce case. So after the final trial I recieved joint custody of my son and I feel like Katie was the reason for the final results. I would highly recommend Katie to represent me if I ever needed a Attorney again.
