Custody case

I hired Mr. Willis for a "easy" custody case which turned out to be more complicated than I thought. Mr. Willis & his staff were amazing!!! Start to finish custody was finished in @ 2 months!! They walked me through the process, kept me informed & even made sure I was comfortable in the courtroom. Th...ey are kind, thoughtful & uniquely gifted at what they do!!! We weren't just a case to them....we were a family they treated with patience, kindness, understanding & professional courtesy!!!

Family First

I was referred to Mr. Jeremy Willis by a friend after I researched how to gain sole custody of my child and came up empty handed. My first meeting with him told the story... He was professional, concerned, knowledgeable, and an expert in the field of family law ( in my case termination of parental r...ights). Jeremy was supportive, understanding, and willing to help me for a fee that was extremely gracious on his part. And I am thankful for that, being a single parent is tough, but manageable especially when there are helpful people on earth like Jeremy and my kind friend that referred Jeremy's services. Mr. Jeremy Willis informed me of my rights and provided legal expertise. All I had to do was follow his advice, retrieve signed notarized documents that his offices drafted and appear in court when asked, a few weeks later, I am happy to report I have full legal and sole custody of my child! It feels great, words can not express the feelings I possess about this matter and actually no words could ever describe my gratitude I have to Mr. Jeremy Willis and his Law office! Furthermore, I need to take a moment to comment about Ms. Becky White, Jeremy's legal assistant. Becky is knowledgeable, compassionate, and very respectful. Becky answered all my e-mails promptly with the utmost urgency and wisdom. The day of the final hearing my emotions ran heavily and I was overcome with many feelings about my personal situation. That day went fast and productively as Ms. Becky handed me the documentation that stated I was the sole legal guarding of my child. As you could imagine I was tearful, joyful, and so much more! Ms. Becky was there with her nurturing demeanor, listening ear, and knew just what to say to put my soul at ease. Additionally, she and Mr. Willis provided me with the information I needed to guide me through the next step to complete the process, i.e. birth certificate, social security card, you know the vital state records stuff. I highly recommend Mr. Jeremy Willis and his Law office to handle your Family Law matters, if you want caring individuals that seek justice for you in a productive detailed timely manner, then look no further you have found your Lawyer, Mr. Jeremy Willis, he puts your family first!

Great Attorney

We're currently using Mr. Willis for a matter involving one of our children. At the first meeting he listened to us and said "I don't think you need to hire me yet. I think you can resolve this without me if you do the following." And then he laid out a plan for us. He didn't charge us a dime. When w...e showed up on his doorstep the next day after a wrench got thrown into that plan, we were confused and lost and didn't know what to do. He talked us through it and let us know that it was time to hire an attorney. It's been an incredibly emotional and stressful time for us and he's listened to us every time we need to just vent and cry and get it all out. He may not always answer the phone when we call (do you honestly expect him to sit at his desk and wait for you to call?), but anytime we stop by his office unannounced he's always met with us. Our case hasn't been resolved yet and I don't completely know what the outcome will be. But we hired Jeremy to tell us what we should do and to look out for our best interests, as well as the interests of our other children. Jeremy gave us his recommendation and explained why he feels that what we would like to do isn't in our best interest. But he also told us that if we really want to proceed with the alternative then he'll fight for us, and gave us an estimate of what it would cost and how long it would take. Jeremy knows that we do not have an unlimited fund for this case so he's given us simple tasks to do ourselves that he could easily have charged us thousands of dollars for. Our case isn't over so I suppose there's still the possibility of him dropping us as clients and leaving us in the lurch, but with as often as I've sat and cried in his office these last few wks I really can't see him doing that. If he does I'll come back and let y'all know! As far as the Dallas Cowboys comment, this person obviously didn't get to know their attorney very well because Jeremy would never stoop so low as to look at CowGirls material. In or out of the courtroom. He's smart enough to know that the Texans are the only team worth paying attention to. Is he arrogant? Yeah a little. Is he blunt? Absolutely. But do you really want an attorney who is going to walk into the court room and cower to the other side or avoid giving you the hard truth because he might offend you? And the comment about Becky was just rude and immature. Becky is a lovely woman who has never been anything but professional and friendly. She even entertained our children on a particularly emotional day when we made an impromptu stop by the office to see Jeremy. And the receptionist has done the same, even when the kids were tired and cranky and completely interrupted the work she was trying to accomplish. So while Jeremy may not be the warm, fuzzy, guy who is going to hold your hand and wipe away your tears, he does have a heart and he will let you cry while he hands you a tissue. But when the time comes he will also tell you to dry it up, put on your big boy panties, and deal with the hard stuff.

Mr.Willis just recently helped me with a long drawn out modification of orders. Mr.Willis knew I needed help as a single working mother and stood by my side even when he was being paid nothing. I have never had lawyers show such character that he has shown me. He guided me and helped me and never ask...ed for a dime. A blessing he has been to my daughter and I. 6 years and he has been my third lawyer and has done more for me than any other lawyer I have had. Jermery has a heart and he not only shows general concern he allows God to work through him. He is a blessing. For a lawyer who will bat for you in any situation is one thing but for one to have done what he has done for me for nothing basically.

VERY PLEASED DIVORCE CLIENT

I HIRED JEREMY WILLIS EARLIER THIS YEAR TO HANDLE WHAT I THOUGHT WAS GOING TO BE AN EASY, OR AT LEAST AGREEABLE DIVORCE WITH MY HUSBAND. WHEN MY HUSBAND BECAME UNCOOPERATIVE AND BEGAN TO TRY AND CONTROL THE SITUATION, JEREMY WAS RIGHT THERE TO TAKE CHARGE AND GET ME THE RESULTS I WANTED. ALL OF MY CA...LLS WERE ANSWERED RIGHT AWAY AND HIS LEGAL ASSISTANT, BECKY, WAS ALWAYS THERE WHEN I NEEDED TO TALK. I'VE NEVER HAD AN ATTORNEY CARE THIS MUCH ABOUT ME AND MY SITUATION. I SAY THANKS TO JEREMY WILLIS FOR TURNING MY NIGHTMARE INTO A WORKABLE SITUATION FOR ME!
