Divorce

I loved Karleana and her team. She was definitely very open and transparent in this whole process and fought until the end with me. I highly recommend her services, I am so grateful and thankful for her services during this process in my divorce.

Family Law - ROI and Mother Advocate

Over the past decade, I have had the misfortune of becoming too acquainted with the family law system in Houston. Attorneys with cerebral knowledge of the law alone and those from expensive, high profile firms did not yield positive results. One attorney in River Oaks essentially stole $50,000 and ...damaged my case. The best return on investment I found is Karleana Farrias of The Farrias Law Firm located in The Heights. Karleana is a mother and very passionate about the well being of children and sanctity of motherhood. Despite losing her own mother during representation on my case she grieved appropriately and persevered. “Control over client” is not something attorneys discuss in consultation, but it is important. This requires the client trusting the attorney. Because Karleana is direct with sensitivity and genuine I was able to trust her advice. When situations demanded immediate attention she was there. Her pragmatic guidance was invaluable. As a litigator, Karleana is proficient and aggressive. While I would have liked more advanced planning for witnesses she was able, on a budget, to take on a the plaintiff who was well financed and reveal him as a narcissist. She is talented in painting a court narrative, and in family law this is essential. As someone looking for great ROI in family law my search would start and stop with Karlean Farrias.

Strong Legal Representation

Karleana Farias and her team are the most highly professionals in their field. I would personally recommend Karleana to anyone in need of any legal services, specifically for civil legal matters. She is very professional, dedicated and passionate for what she does. I never felt lost, Like not know...ing what was next. As she explained my case, step by step and in great detail. If your looking for someone that will fight for you? I highly recommend her and staff.

Karleana Farias will go bat for you 110%

While Attorney Karleana's Farias name was brought to my attention awhile back, it wasn't until an unexpected situation concerning my three year old granddaughter arose that I (after researching a couple of other family law firms) decided to appoint The Farias Law Firm, I must say, Karleana is a str...ong, aggressive lawyer who will bat for her client 110%. She will keep her client abreast of case status. along with listening to her client and keeping them abreast of current case status, Mrs. Farias never fails to be in court on given court dates. A professional who is kind, loyal, honest and understanding, She's above all, a compassionate human being..

Amazing experience

Karleana and her team (Alma, Diego, et.al) did an amazing job during my divorce proceedings. They communicated clearly every step of the way, explained details of the process and ultimately closed my divorce seamlessly and in a short period of time. They team prepared and filed every document needed ...and made it very easy for me during the process. Karleana's attitude and energy was always very positive and encouraging, she never pushed for anything that I didn't feel comfortable with and it was always evident that she had my best interest at all times. I highly recommend The Farias Law firm! Thank you!
