Excellant Lawyer

David worked with me for my very complicated lengthy (6yrs ) divorce and custody case. He is very organized, meticulous and confident. He successfully presented my case in front of a Jury. He knows and understands both the emotional and legal side of divorce. Always gave an advice which was best ...for my family being a good human at heart as well as a through professional. You can completely trust his knowledge and opinion for settling your case or litigating.

Review of David W. Biles

I am extremely fortunate that when I needed a divorce lawyer, I was given the business card of Mr. David W. Biles. Now I am financially secure and my life is back on track. Mr. Biles has over 25 years of experience in family law. He explained the reality of Texas family law to me, and what I must do ...to make the best possible case for myself. It was a difficult and expensive process, but in every instance, his advice proved correct. His fees may be higher than some other attorneys, but I was paying for his experience and negotiating skills. My decree not only met the requirements for Texas law, but the wording also met the requirements for the laws of Queensland, Australia. My divorce decree was entered into the Family Court of Queensland so the retirement money overseas could be divided. I know no one I would rather have protecting my interests.

Would never use again

I hired Mr. Biles for a complicated case. Long story short Mr. Biles did not do what I asked him to do, and quit in the middle of the case over something that wasn't true, after costing me a lot of money. Mr. Biles dropping me was the Best thing that could have happened for my case. I now have an ex...cellent law firm. I would not recommend Mr. Biles.

Despite best efforts, sometimes it is best for attorney and client to part ways, particularly when views of the case are disparate. As with all, I wish Monica well in her pursuit of her objectives.

Best Divorce and Family Law Lawer in the area!!!!

David is a consummate professional. When I first met him, he took time and notes of my situation in great detail. He really is on your side and he saved me from so much money that I would have had to pay if I had gone to someone else. David was referred to me by a friend who had been through a di...vorce and highly recommended him. I can confidently say he is one of the best lawyers in the area. Mind you, he is not cheap, but he is worth every penny. Post divorce I have used him to get Custody of the children and full ownership of my house to great success and speed. I highly recommend David Biles as your Attorney. Roger
