The best lawyer in the metroplex

The Sisemore law firm went above and beyond for my custody case. Particularly Mr. Mitchell was amazing. For a such a difficult time in my life fighting to be apart of my daughters life as a single father, Mr Mitchell made me feel like I had more than a chance to win my case. He was so knowledgable a...nd exuded such confidence on my case I couldn't help but feel reassured. If I had any questions or concerns it was so easy to get a hold of him or his amazing paralegal Rene. He's a family man and was so easy to talk to. I will continue to use their law firm in the future and will recommend Mr Mitchell in particular to anyone who may require his services. The best law firm in the metroplex hands down.

Dissolution of Marriage and Business Partnership

Jerold did great assisting me in obtaining the settlement owed to me from my divorce and dissolving the business partnership with my ex-husband. He provided sound advice, support and a fast turnaround. He was able to obtain payment for attorney fees when my ex-husband chose to ignore the terms of the... dissolution. I would recommend working with Jerold in the future.

Best Divorce Attorney in DFW

Jerold is honest and trustworthy. Truly awesome! He had familiarized himself with my case and had all his ducks in a row, before meeting with me. He was very personable and made me feel confident with everything he did. I hired him immediately and I would highly recommend him to everyone.

Excellent

Jerold did a fantastic job with my divorce. He was very open and honest with me the entire time and explained all the laws and requirements in plain English. Every communication and document was completed and filed quickly and I never had a question about where my case stood. Even years later when... I have questions Jerold quickly returns my phone calls or emails to help me out.

Highly recommend attorney

I used Mr. Mitchell on 2 separate cases. Both were handled with the professionalism and passion one expects when having an attorney represent them. His knowledge and detailed oriented work provided me to have the knowledge and comfort as to what steps were going to be involved to reach the result mos...t beneficial to me. Highly recommend to any family, friend or stranger.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked with Jerold on an interstate (CO & TX) UCCJEA and dissolution matter. He quickly put together a great case for our mutual client, communicated well with out of state counsel to ensure that we were working towards the same goal. We were able to share information, pleadings, and evidence with one another to save our client attorney fees. He stayed late at night to prepare his out of state client for a jurisdictional battle and achieved a full dismissal for our military client."
