5 stars
I had a family law case which involved sensitive allegations of abuse. It was a nightmare, but Lester explained all options and possible outcomes. He acted quickly to use the law to protect my children. Lester always made me feel like he had my family’s best interest as his own, and the outcome was e...

Fort Worth Family Law at its Best!
Lester K Reed and his firm represented me very successfully in a custody modification trial. He and his team were upfront from the beginning regarding any obstacles and never insinuated realistically unattainable goals. Nonetheless, in trial we succeeded well beyond my expectations. Lester and his...

Had my back and excellent representation!
Lester Reed did such an amazing job for me. I was referred to him when my case became contested and I am so thankful for that. He was very easy to get a hold of and communicate with. I always felt like he had my best interest at the forefront of his mind, which was my children. He was very good at ex...

Efficient
Lester immediately set forth and executed a speedy divorce. It required little for me to do and the goal came fast and without much fuss. I appreciated the concern he showed and was glad he took over all communication with my ex and I did not have to be bothered.

peace of mind
I hired Lester after consulting with 2 other attorneys. He was quick to respond to my text and emails and I always felt in the loop with what was going on with my case. Divorce is not something I wish on anyone but, if you have the right team it can be bearable. I hope to never repeat this process...
Lester K. Reed's Lawyer Endorsements
"Mr. Reed is THE BEST family lawyer I have ever had the opportunity to work a case with. I will not ever forget how our clients were full of antomosity at the temp orders hearing and we had to work hard but to see them in the hall of the courthouse cohesively working together as young new parents of such a beautiful baby was exactly what was in the best interest of the child. And when my client changed his mind at the very last minute, he was the most patient person I have ever worked a case with. I felt so bad that my client changed his mind at the last minute, but Mr. Reed has the patience of "Jobe" He took it in stride in a situation that I would have admittedly been frustrated with. If you ever get a chance to work with him...DO SO....you will learn a whole new sense of how to practice family law. I strongly recommend Mr. Reed. He's an absolute asset to Family Law in Tarrant and surrounding counties."
"I endorse this lawyer. Lester has been opposing counsel on several of my family law cases. He is always courteous and professional. He quickly responds to phone calls and emails, while giving his clients excellent representation."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I strongly endorse Lester. He is a fine, compassionate attorney. He fights a good fight, yet remains highly ethical."

"I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Reed while we were both working for Progressive Casualty Insurance Company. He is highly skilled and pleasant to deal with. He was always well prepared, diligent and extremely effective in his work. I highly recommend Lester to anyone who needs an excellent Family law lawyer. I endorse this lawyer"
"Lester is extremely professional and a zealous advocate for his clients, but still a pleasure to work with."
"Lester is a committed and brilliant family lawyer. He takes pride in knowing his trade and staying up to date on changes in Texas Family Law. As law students, we were admonished to keep some [emotional] distance from our clients so as not to let our clients' matters affect us too deeply. Despite this, Lester cannot quell has inherent passion for his cases and his clients' well-being. He really cares about his cases and he has the experience and knowledge to get the results his clients deserve. And he's just a darn good guy."
"Mr. Reed is one of the best lawyers in his field. He really cares about his clients and makes himself very accessible to them. Mr. Reed works hard on each case to obtain the best results for his clients. I endorse him and his work wholeheartedly."

"I have known Mr. Reed both personally and professionally for several years. I have referred several cases to him in the past and will continue to do so. I do not refer cases to an attorney unless I trust that they are knowlegible and very competent in that area. Mr. Reed is ethical and works extremely hard for his clients. He also makes every effort to keep the costs of his cases as reasonable as possible. I have also had cases with and against Mr. Reed and I would not hesitate to endorse him."
