Diligent and involved

Adam went the extra mile not only for me, but also for a very close friend in our family law cases. His attention to detail, listening to my concerns, understanding the situation, identifying/handling 3rd party characters involved, requests for information/discovery, and his "on time" attitude were... unmatched.

Very unprofessional

Do yourself a favor and hire a professional attorney. Adam is late to hearings and arbitrations but bills as if he was on time. His invoices are full of errors and fraudulent billing hours that he cannot defend. He is constantly asking for additional money before completing the previous task. He ...never submits the proper paperwork to the court in a timely fashion , creating a record that does not accurately represent the facts of the case. Overall, the guy is very unprofessional and incapable of effectively representing any party in an equitable family law proceeding. He owes many ex clients money from unearned retainers and refuses to return phone calls or the funds in question. Hire a reputable firm with a proven record of professionally representing clients in family court. Not a one man firm operating out of their kitchen.

THANK YOU ADAM!!!!

Family Custody Case that was upside down, sideways, and just all kinds of messed up. Previous council quit in the middle of it all. Adam came in and did an absolutely AMAZING job. He got everything ironed out and got EXTREMELY favorable results that were not expected. His assistant is knowledgeable a...nd prompt. They treat you like family and not just like another client. I would highly recommend Adam Helleck to anyone.

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.

The Best Family Lawyer Attorney in Houston

We retained Adam a year ago to handle a very messy, complicated, and stressful child custody modification and child support review case for us. From the very first phone call, Adam always answered the phone and spent a lengthy amount of time explaining our options, what was going to happen next, and... more importantly, where we go from here. Adam always arrived in court on time, had our filings properly prepared, served, and without mistake. We knew what might happen, what should happen, and left without any unanswered questions each time. From the beginning of our case, we were met with great opposition from the opposing counsel and Adam worked tirelessly to settle our case and the issues within it in the most cost effective manner possible. We've never felt the bill we received was too high, nor did we have any doubts that Adam wasn't doing the work he'd billed us for. Mr. Helleck has the innate ability to make you feel like you are the only client on his list and the sole focus of his day. Lawyers we've retained the past past have taken our money, not answered phone calls or e-mails, and failed to resolve any issues with our case, Mr. Helleck has been completely the opposite. Adam is truly an exceptional attorney with his client's and their children's best interest at heart.
