Terisa G. Taylor

I normally don’t leave reviews but I’m speechless on the results that Mrs. Taylor got for me. She was a bulldog in court and got a father custody. Any child Custody battle is hard but she was able to get me custody of my son. I gave her a lot of paperwork and after her preparation she was able to tel...l me my story. I knew she cared as she went through everything I gave her. My first attorney cost me a lot of money 15k and still no results. I then was able to find Mrs Taylor through another attorney. When she read my court order she showed great concern due to the fact that it wasn’t written well and was very vague. My sons mother was violating the order and Mrs Taylor immediately filled enforcement actions. To my surprise she was able to get my sons mother found in contempt. We then filled for custody and a jury trial. She won me primary in the custody of my son. My court order was written by her firm and i can’t say how thankful I am for her professionalism. When I called I got answer in a fast professional manner. Her staff was always willing to make sure I knew what was happening. To the other comments I read yes this journey wasn’t cheap but was worth it as I have my son. Mrs Taylor was honest and upfront that she couldn’t guarantee anything but I can honestly say she left everything she had in that courtroom.

Mrs. Taylor took me two weeks before trial. I'm sure that it helped that I had my records in order, but she has an awesome team anyway. She is a very caring and resourceful lawyer who works very hard for all of her clients. With only two weeks until trial, she made sure that I got my children. ...Her firm is large and able to absorb issues as needed. She worked with me on pricing even though I was in a pinch. I could write a mile long list of how much I appreciate her.

Terisa was my attorney for almost 10 years. She stuck by my side through thick and thin. Although sometimes I felt as if she was not "working" on my case or did not know what was going on, she really did! She just did not have the time to talk to me on the phone and rehash my entire case over and ove...r. It was for my benefit because it would have cost me more in the end. When we walked into court, I realized she knew what was going on. She was so dedicated that by the 9th year when my pockets were empty, she stopped charging me and remained my attorney because she believed in me!

Worst experience I have had since the divorce. She seemed nice enough, but I was in the dark about my case for the entire year. My case was passed off to a few different associates, so I never knew who I was dealing with. I spoke with her 2 xs in the year, once with a new girl she was passing me off... to. The child support amendment case has been closed for months, but apparently after they file with the court their job is over. It is now my responsibility to file with the Attorney General to enforce support, even though they got the order of enforcement. After 30 days you are on your own, regardless if anything has been enforced. And Lord forbid you express concern, unless you want to be informed 3 months later that you now owe another huge chunk of change.. You know for emails and calls that have been made.. If the AG ''loses' your paperwork (sounds to me like it was initially not even turned in) you are on your own and not their problem. I would not recommend this law firm to anyone. They say she is a bull dog in court, but you will probably not even have her personally represent you. I am definitely not one to leave negative feedback, and it's never any fun dealing with lawyers and court, but I feel like people need a heads up on what to expect when they are dishing out a $6000 start up fee and paying thousands afterwards for representation in a court of law. I would hope that there are friendlier more involved law firms in the big city of Houston that are employable for the people.. And I also hope that I never have to deal with any of them again.. Thank Goodness for the court appointed amicus attorney. Even though we were forced to pay her another $3000, she was genuinely involved and always kept me in the know about the happenings in our case, not to mention she seemed to actually care about the outcome.
