WOW!!

Justin Sisemore is an amazing and gifted attorney. He is doing what he was born to do. He just took me through a very difficult divorce with an extremely contentious ex husband. During the year and a half leading up to the final trial there were many situations that required Justin to be prepa...red and ready to fight for me. The opposing council was an arrogant and pompous attorney that Justin had no problem staying ahead of. Watching him battle against this man was in itself gratifying as I was able to see a huge display of his skill level and professionalism. I was so proud of him and so were my friends and family who came to support me. I am an older lady and though no one wants or plans to have divorce happen in their lives, for someone my age it is especially scary. Prior to the final trial Justin prepared me as my own son would have by being as tough with me as he could be. I sometimes thought I wouldn't get through it but as it turned out I was prepared, which was always his main goal. There was a pre-nuptial agreement and the opposing council was as ferocious and obnoxious as they come but Justin's way of handling him was a joy to experience. Justin is a fighter but in a good way. He is smart and savvy with a great deal of passion, and I am so glad he was not the attorney working for my ex husband! He was an answer to prayer. He fought for me to keep my home and got me a decent amount of spousal maintenance, which from my understanding is challenging to get in the state of Texas. If you want a winner and someone who is on top of his game when it counts the most then you want Justin. His firm was always courteous and Pam Wilder worked amazingly well along side him in the courtroom. They balance each other out with different strengths. I highly recommend the Sisemore Law Firm to anyone hoping to find the best. You will be in great hands!

Donna, I make it a habit to read every client review and reflect on how we can be better. I know I sometimes made you laugh, sometimes made you cry, sometimes made you worry, and sometimes gave you confidence; but it was you all along who was strong, who planned, who listened, and who succeeded. We truly love clients like you. You actually help motivate me and my team to be the best so we thank you. Very truly yours, Justin J. Sisemore

Amazing Attorney

He is a take charge lawyer. He guided me in the right direction when I felt lost, confused, and unsure He xplained in plain English the legal process of family law that can be so confusing and the pros and cons of my choices and helped me decide what is best for our case.

So Far So Good

I've recently retained Sisemore Law Firm and have absolutely nothing to complain about. Both Justin and Samantha are honest and up front with you. Sometimes they tell you things you don't want to hear but that is them doing their job. They do fight for you though. If you ask them to explain things fu...rther they do, they warn you if something will be expensive or if extra fees will occur, they are very responsive to emails or phone calls, and no matter how ridiculous a question or situation they are understanding and are willing to do their best to accommodate your requests or answer your question to the best of their ability. I had my consultation with Justin Sisemore, which was quick and to the point, I have also gone to my first hearing with them which concluded with positive results. He and Samantha are both very knowledgeable; in what they do and of the Tarrant County system. I so far recommend this law firm to anyone who needs a cut throat lawyer who keeps it real with you. I will try to update when my case is closed. Thank you to Justin and Samantha. I appreciate you both.

My Grandparent Rights

I met Justin in February of 2012. I had looked him up in the YP and I knew God had sent me to him. The first meeting was just to see if he thought we had a case and 2 weeks later we felt he was our only hope of winning visitation with our then 12 year old twin grandsons. He was always very honest ...from the beginning, sometimes he hit nerves that I didn't like, but after he explained the "why" it was what he was doing. Giving me all options on things I either needed to let go or to do for the good of my case. There was a lot of crying and there was challenges to learn. Our first victory was supervised visits at the mothers house once every other week to see them for three hours. That ended on June 9, 2012. I ask the mother can we continue this arrangement or do we go to our lawyers. The boys became up set and the mother and I told them no it was fine and I left knowing that would be the last time I would see them until we took it to court and the judge made his decision. I could not talk to them on the phone, I couldn't go to school activities and that Christmas I drove by their house only to see a deserted house. It took me several months to discover she had bought a house in the same area but no change of address to our lawyer. After several no shows and mail being returned undeliverable in June of 2013 we found out she had picked up her kids and moved. She changed her email, phone numbers, the boys phones and disappeared , she disguised herself as several different names and not only her but the boys. We proved that her whole family helped her disappear to myself. Justin didn't give up, he worked and finally she was ordered to show up or accept the obvious. That day in court, June of this year, he won what we had been fighting for, just to see our boys who are now 15. I praise God for sending us to Justin's office. I highly recommend his services and he is still working with me if we ever need his services again. I believe he should get recognition for winning this case and so much more. I never knew that Texas did not have any grand parent rights and Justin warned us from the beginning. He knew my son, the twins father, had passed away Janurary 14, 2012 due to diabetes and he was the most professional lawyer and yet he was hard where he needed to be and comforting at the same time. My oldest son and I on first impression, loved the fact that he was so confident and could tell he was a fighter for justice and his clients. He is good and I can't say enough good things about him. He has become my families HERO, and I will always appreciate the job he did for us. Thank you, Barbara
