Judie Sadler is the best labor and employment lawyer I know in Houston and South Texas. I call on her for all questions in this area and I have repeatedly referred clients to her. They have all been more than satisfied with her knowledge and her tenacity. She is an excellent lawyer, first-rate in her field. Her fees are also very reasonable.
