I know from firsthand experience the ups and downs of going through a messy divorce matter. I strive to save people from the full "experience." I try to help clients through the family law process as painlessly as possible, keeping their ultimate goals in mind. Sometimes the only way is the hard way, and when put into that situation, I will push for my client's position with vigor. However, even while pushing I remain open to a resolution that allows my client to move on with their life.
I have been practicing primarily family law since 1995 and am board certified in family law. I also have experience handling personal injury, estate planning, civil litigation, and probate matters. I have had my own office since 1998 and have handled approximately 1500 family law matters over the last 20+ years. My office is well equipped to handle most family law matters, from the simple to the very complex. We also handle collaborative family law matters and adoptions.
My office is centrally located in Grapevine, Texas and we handle cases in Tarrant, Dallas, and Denton Counties, including the municipalities of Grapevine, Southlake, Colleyville, Bedford, Hurst, Euless, Arlington, North Richland Hills, Richland Hills, Keller, Haltom City, Watauga, Mansfield, Fort Worth, Northlake, Westlake, Trophy Club, Flower Mound, Lewisville, Highland Village, Argyle, Double Oak, Denton, Krum, Carrollton, Coppell, Farmers Branch, Dallas, Richardson, Garland, Mesquite, Irving, and Grand Prairie.
On the personal side, I am married with 3 growing boys that do their best to keep me from working too much. Interests outside of the law revolve around weekend football games and World Cup soccer events.

Do you need a lawyer like one from John Grisham's books? Teller will fight for you
Working with Donald and Anna was easy. They stayed on top of my case from beginning to end. I told them of the events that led to my divorce, and how I botched the paperwork doing it on my own. I informed them of my suspicion of my ex abusing drugs and alcohol. They're first steps were to make sure t...

Not supportive.
I chose Mr Teller as my lawyer due to the ratings, I wish I picked someone else. The staff is great, Mr Teller is a nice man and answers my questions but in the court room I felt like he did not fight for me. The petitioner had “evidence” that did not have anything to do with the custody of my kids, ...

He is Inept and does NOTHING...EVER!
I hired Donald Teller to divorce my spouse who is also an attorney. I gave Donald Teller $5000 as a retainer. It took Donald Teller's "Process Server" 3 Full Days, taken from my Retainer, to try and find my very Large husband. Finally I followed my husband for 8 hours and gave the "Process Server" th...
I represented Kimberly eight years ago. My representation ended in 2013. She sent me a “thank you” email after mediation. She hired a different attorney before trial and that attorney finalized her case. I thought we had parted on good terms so I am surprised by these comments so many years later.

Did not do anything!
I hired don for my child custody. He was great the first time around and got my case dismissed. But then the second time he claimed he went to court and my ex filed a motion for continuous which he should have not allowed at the last minute when we had the dismissal. He said he used all the money and...
"I endorse this lawyer. Don is highly qualified and respected. He knows the law, people and always fights for his clients and the best interest of kids. I respect him and his work."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is a skilled family lawyer who knows the law very well and is very professional in his dealings with opposing attorneys."
"I've known Don for years and had several cases against him. Don is extremely professional and skilled at finding solutions to complex matters. When that fails, he can litigate with the best."
"Don is one of my favorite lawyers to deal with. He is smart, trustworthy and compassionate. Janet Denton"
