I filed a case at the beginning of 2018 for a modification in custody of my daughter with Kendall Getz who worked at this firm. She did an acceptable job, but retired mid-way through my case after about 6-8 months working on it. Then it was passed to an attorney named Desiree, who worked on it for ma...ybe a couple of weeks, she quit, then finally taken over my Mr. Housewirth. Communication was awful, I couldn't get strait answers as to what was taking so long, or why I kept being billed with nothing moving forward. All and all i payed $8,822 before ever having a trial. That was for 1 hearing with Kendall, and a mediation. When the final trial date was approaching, I was given a time to be at court, I had to fly in for it since I was working out of town. Somewhere in Greg's office, the time that court was going to start was wrong, causing us all to miss it, and me having to fly back to town the following week for the last court date. I was out of pocket for 2 round trip flight and 2 days work, Greg refunded me $1000, then didn't send another bill for the final hearing. At the hearing, I had about 8 witnesses show up that were sent via Clio (their messaging software) 1 year prior to the court date. Not a single witness was listed in discovery, so they had to sit out in the hall and were not able to testify in my case. People that could have made a huge difference in my case, left unable to testify. Also there was about 400 pages of text messages that I also sent via Clio, as well as printed out copies I had delivered with tabs on each page marking what is pertinent to the case, guess what, these were not entered into discovery either and they didn't even know where they were. The day of court, Greg brought out about 10 pages of text not related to anything with the case. The big kicker here is the child support aspect. I'm a 1099 contractor. I have expenses to operate my company that come out of that income. My 1099 is quite a bit away from my actual income. Instead of sending in my tax return showing my actual income from my company, they sent in my 1099 by itself. Child support was figured right under the state max at an amount I can't afford and will have to spend more money with another attorney to go back with the proper documents that should have been submitted in the first place. All this to say, if you want to throw away money to not have your case presented with all the evidence/witnesses you provided them, this is the place to go. I've never been involved with such an incompetent law firm in my entire life. I'm now faced with the decision to pay a support I can't afford for any amount of time, or pay an attorney to file for a re-trial. Either way it's thousands of dollars more out of my pocket. The only positive that came from any of this was a schedule with visits for my child.

In the middle of a two and a half year custody case with the mother of my son, CPS became involved which added confusion and a terrifying element to the case. After a consultation with Greg Housewirth, I didn't think twice about retaining him to represent me in this CPS custody case. He explained the... expected events to come with a CPS case in a way that never felt like a sales pitch, but more like a a conversation with someone I had known for years who truly cared about the outcome of my case, with my son's best interests as his primary focus. His genuine care continued for over 10 months, from the initial consultation throughout the cases entirety, to the final hearing. My complete satisfaction with the case outcome and overall experience with The Firm, began with Greg and continued on by all of the staff I encountered with Schreier & Housewirth. In a contagious manner, all of the staff , from the Paralegals , to his Firm Partner, Holly, to the Assistants, and so on .... displayed all aspects of the case with professionalism, great attention to detail, superior knowledge of Texas Family Law, and excellent communication, to name a few. Myself, being somewhat stubborn and difficult at times, rarely take the time to commend a company or service after they met and exceeded all expectations.. Anyone in North Texas who might be facing a CPS case or going through a Child Custody case deserve to know the top notch experience I had with The Schreier & Housewirth Firm. My experience with their firm was as good as one can have , considering the circumstances, but the best has just began: All the years to come enjoying fatherhood, building and strengthening the relationship with my son, being the best father I know to be.

Holly and Greg is definitely the ones you should go to for any CPS related cases! They have good relation within the cps department and just made the whole process easy for my family. My case just closed December 2014, and I now have primary custody of my niece. Heres my story...my niece was take...n away by cps with a court order December 2013. Now keep in mind all this happen during the big holiday seasons of christmas and new years and you should know it can be hard to get in contact with cps since they could either be closed or on vacation or just not wanting to answer any phonecalls. I set up a consultation appt and gave my story to Greg and we actually met on a Saturday which was most convenient for me. And because my cps case was primary within dallas county, he handed me over to Holly. At first I was unsure about it since I did my research and only knew how great Greg was but it turns out Holly was the BEST! So we met on a saturday and the same following Monday (which was christmas week), Holly quickly jumped on it and worked on my case and was able to get in contact with cps and had everything set up. So my sister(mother of baby taken away) was scheduled for her visitation of the week but both parents was nowhere to be found. And I wanted to see my niece to ensure she is okay. I think there was a policy where you needed parent's permission to see child, however Holly did her magic and was able to get me a visitation without neither parents there with me. Cps was telling me that I will not be able to get my niece in my care until second court date, BUT guesss what Holly did? She had my niece returned with me the same first court date! As time go on waiting for the parents to complete their services in which was never done, Holly took care of everything. Holly knew every resource that cps would have to offer my baby niece while she is in my care. She made sure I was sign up for programs and even got me compensated by cps for the things needed to care for my baby niece. Holly is just knowledgable with these cases! Makes me wonder if she used to work for them. So as time went by and parents didn't finish their services, she worked it all out in my niece's best interest of staying in my primary custody. She had a mediation set up and even drafted out the agreement for all of us. Also there was this one moment where I was scared and nervous, and Holly got my full attention and says "you have to be strong for her!" Although she may not know it but those words was such a motivation for me to do what needed to be done. I had fears of not being able to take good care of my baby niece esp since I don't have kids and hardly have experience of taking care of infants. I played those words in my mind throughout the entire time and even to this day. As it turns out I am a natural at nurturing a child! Holly did so much for us and there is so much more I want to highlight but that would take forever. So if you have any specific question regarding my case, you can email me at pn_etc@yahoo.com. I am their living proof of how well Holly and Greg got my family together with my niece.

September 2012 a twelve year relationship began to come to an end. I was only 23 with two beautiful little boys. My ex had a large controlling and violent temper that could no longer be handled by me. You think it would have been a given that things would have been quick in court, but my ex came on s...trong and tried to play daddy of the year for court when it first began. In January of 2013 I was on a hunt to get some legal advice and find out how I can gain custody of my children. I contacted multiple lawyers and many were very rude, some never responded back, and some gave me a automated response, but Greg I got a personal email from him sharing his views and asked me to come in to talk. When I first went to meet with Greg I was a mess. My ex had my two boys two in a half hours away from me and made my life tremendously hard when it came to see them, my ex also called CPS on me three time in less than a years span. Greg told me how to handle CPS, and to not let them intimidate me. My ex had a goal to keep my children from me, and his plan was to flee the state and never let me see my children again. Greg helped me put a stop to that! We had multiple court dates and it sometime seemed never ending, but the continuous support from Greg and his team helped through all the nerve wrecking court dates. Greg did a great job presenting me as a mother and how the best interest of the children would be in my care, but I cannot tell you how amazing Greg's approach in court is. As my ex's second lawyer tried to use a strong and aggressive tactic to make me look wrong or bad, Greg left it up to my ex to show his true colors in court. Everything we did in the court room pertained to hard evidence and facts, and things we could not show proof of Greg as mention took the route of letting my ex shine the light he did want on himself. After a year and a half of numerous court dates, appeals, and all my trial which was August of 2014 quickly came to an end just about a week ago. The man that came in strong ready to take me down didn't even show for final trial. My children cannot be more happier to know that they get to stay with their mother, and no longer have to be let down by their father. It was almost bitter sweet saying goodbye at the court house to Greg and Kelly, as they have been so amazing through this whole thing. I am beyond blessed by the work that was carried out for my family and there is no one else I would ever go to or send any one to but Greg. His many years of being a lawyer and in the system of law show when he takes your case on. If you are looking for someone that will prepare you for court, be honest with you when it comes to your case, someone that is reliable! There is not one better in Tarrant County than Greg. Heck even if your not in Tarrant County he is worth the drive to see. Thank you Greg and all of the team for all you have done for me!
