"I've use Bruce as a mediator on multiple family cases the past couple of years., including cases with children, and cases involving substantial property divisions. He is patient and persistent in handling emotional divorce and custody cases; as well as thorough in trying to make sure all issues are addressed. My client at the last mediation said he was " a nice guy," which helps in mediations."

"Family law is an area of law where people often don’t appreciate being told "how it is" when that doesn't align with their objectives, but having that reality check can be a very useful tool in mediation. Bruce acts as that reality check; it's why I like him as a mediator and continue to go back to him on cases where someone needs to come back down to Earth."

"Bruce Kessler is far and away one of THE most effective and experienced attorney/ mediators in Houston. Bruce is always in my top three list of proposed mediators to use in my family law cases, as he is a BARGAIN and GETS THE JOB DONE! Bruce can be tough, but he tells it like it is, which is what people need to know before they spend even more money in trial. Bruce is so well thought of that he is often asked to sit on the bench while judges are out, and his fairness and efficiency are impressive. If you want a mediator to hold you or your client's hand and shower you/them with warm fuzzies, you might want to keep looking. But if you want a brilliant, effective attorney/mediator to cut to the chase and resolve your case in the best way possible, Bruce is your man. I will continue to use Bruce as often as I possibly can for mediation, because I respect him completely, and sincerely TRUST him to help me get things resolved. I HIGHLY endorse Bruce Kessler."

"I absolutely endorse Bruce Kessler. He has handled my divorce, my ex-wife has referred her friends and family to him, I have referred clients to him, and I have worked with Bruce as a mediator before. He is extremely well versed in family law and very patient with those of us who are not."
