Tyler Roderick Monahan

If you are in the Military, DO NOT hire this office to handle your divorce! I hired this office, specifically Tyler Monahan, to the tune of $5000 in June 2022 on behalf of my foster son, who was serving in the military at the time. Paperwork indicated his estranged wife, or her lawyer, filed divorce ...paperwork with the court in April 2022. My foster son was served paperwork to appear in court in June 2022, allowing only one week before he was to appear in court in Dallas, TX. However, my foster son was in the military, in San Diego, California, serving our country, and in no way, was available to appear before the court in one week. By law, he is protected through the Soldiers and Sailors Act, and Tyler was able to file necessary papers with the court to cause the hearing to be postponed and give him the time necessary to prepare for a court appearance. However, this was where things pretty much came to a stop. That initial paperwork was the only thing that was done completely, and as agreed upon, for the next two years that this office handled his divorce. When my foster son was finally able to meet with Tyler, besides phone calls and email, things were agreed to in order to get access to his 16 year old daughter, whom the estranged wife refused to allow access to over the previous 2+ years, since 2019/2020. Tyler was also supposed to file other papers to appear before the court to reduce child support and spousal support because of reduced income, change child support due to the estranged wife’s failure to grant access to his daughter, and remove the estranged wife from credit accounts, all the while, she and his daughter lived in housing that cost way beyond his means, and hers, and in charging items to his credit accounts which forced him to be responsible for those expenditures as primary on the credit accounts. Tyler never filed these papers with the court, forcing my foster son to incur over 4 years of credit expenditures, which was the entirety of their estrangement, and 4 years without access to his daughter. In forcing the issue with Tyler and his office, my foster son was told that all of the $5000 retainer had been spent and additional funds would be required to proceed further with the divorce. When my foster son asked to see an itemized bill showing all expenditures, Tyler and this law firm immediately dropped him as a client and refused to do any further work on his divorce. So, again, I say, if you serve in the military, DO NOT use this law firm!!! If you want value and service, amenable, to the money this office charges, DO NOT use this law firm!

Tyler was my second attorney (I should have hired him first) during my divorce, I thought it would be a simple prospect to divorce my wife who had turned into a Monster. I was wrong... I met with multiple attorneys, who all say "I'm the best and can get you everything" -Run from those guys... I met... with Tyler, and he gave me a straight answer... even when I was frustrated, and a horrible client, he stuck by me. ultimately, the divorce was a complicated all out WAR with a business involved and many different assets. Tyler got me through it... I will continue to use Tyler for my business endeavors, since finding good, trust worthy, legal counsel, is hard to come by.

Tyler and his staff were professional and very hardworking during my divorce. He truly knows what he is doing and is well recognized in his field. The set price was fair. He told me divorces take longer than people think and that is true. I knew that I had a great team going to bat for me and felt... safe. I even received more money than I expected. God bless them.
