James Menze

I was a client of Helleck Law for a divorce from August 2019 - April 2020. Mr. Helleck is very well versed in the law and how to maximize the strengths and weaknesses of the case. He cuts through the drama to focus the situation in a way that keeps it as simple and stress free as possible. Of course,... anyone that has gone through a divorce knows it is unavoidable when children are involved. During mediation Mr. Helleck was very good. I did not settle for less than I deserved in visitation or estate division because of his counsel. When the case went to trial, he objected when necessary and left our witnesses on the sideline (hallway actually because it was a divorce with children and no one was allowed in the courtroom) when he knew it could only hinder the case. When the opposing counsel put in a motion for a new trial, Mr. Helleck easily used the law to get it denied. That motion was tried via ZOOM video conference with the judge, counsel, clients, and court reporter due to the current pandemic. His rates are right near the market price for the Houston area as well, making his services a decent value in a matter that may affect the rest of your life. The outcome for me was very favorable and I would recommend Mr. Helleck for legal representation.

Adam is someone you want on your side

After being instructed by CPS to do so, I was frantically in search of an attorney to help me get an emergency modification done to my custody order. My situation involved a sexual assault incident with my daughter, her father, and his girl friend at the time. Other attorneys I spoke to were less tha...n encouraging that I would be granted the supervised visitation I was seeking due to a lack of physical evidence, and not yet having a ruling from the CPS investigation. During my last attempts to find representation, I came across Helleck Law. I left a message with Adam, who returned my call shortly after, despite being in the midst of a personal matter. Upon speaking to him, I had hope (For the first time) and was so appreciative of his willingness to help me and more importantly my daughter. Adam new exactly what to do and offered solutions that no other attorney did. His fees were reasonable and he was flexible with payment arrangements, which was very helpful with mine and my husband's growing family. I spoke to Adam on a Friday evening, retained him Saturday afternoon, and by that Tuesday I was granted an Emergency Restraining Order for my daughter. His assistant, Meghan, was great in answering any questions I had and guiding me through out the legal process. Following the emergency TRO, I was granted supervised visits in our temporary orders and sole conservatorship in our finally custody orders ten months later. Adam's professionalism, knowledge of the law, and eagerness to help gave me the confidence that I was lacking pertainting to my situation. Thanks to him, I have the peace of mind today that my daughter is safe. I am forever grateful for that and without a doubt use Helleck law again for any future legal needs.

The best there is.

This man is the truth! He is straight forward and on point. Adam and Megan (his assistant) dove deep for me and got the job done. After many years of going back and forth to family law court with the WRONG attorneys, I was mentally exhausted. Adam reviewed my case and was very upfront about what he c...ould get done for me. My ex had become accustom to to beating me in court... until now. Adam stayed with me through the process and fought. He doesn't back down and isn't afraid to go all in for you. Megan will fight for you as well, they know the law and how to use it to your favor. My case was for CS enforcement and custody. I was always able to get someone on the phone, never had to worry about him forgetting my court appointments or not remembering why we were there to start with. I simply can't say enough about how capable this law firm is. If you're looking for someone professional, well versed and firm... look no further.
