Alexandria Gwyn Foster

Alex has a thorough knowledge of the law and defended my case with determination. Alex and her team were available to answer my questions and addressed my questions and concerns with honesty, clarity, patience, and promptness. She showed a deep understanding of my personal situation and demonstrated ...empathy throughout the legal process. I was informed every step of the way and she helped avoid a long and costly trial, keeping my case out of court. I highly recommend this law firm.

I am beyond grateful that I have had the good fortune of being represented by Alex. I am the father to an amazing three year old boy. I was very scared when his mother and I began a custody battle. It was the last thing I could have ever wanted. I wanted to make sure I can always do everything I can ...to ensure he grows up in a healthy way. His parents fighting was something I always wanted to protect him from. My fear of this was multiplied by the fact that I had heard from countless people that dads have an insurmountable uphill legal battle, and that they have great difficulty having their voices heard. I had also heard the general stereotype of lawyers as being unethical/ only motivated by fiscal gain regardless of how it affects others. I believe Alex is the opposite of that stereotype. Regardless of gender, Alex will fight to ensure you are heard. Especially if it is the right thing for the child. Fortunately, with Alex's guidance, we have finalized a joint custody arrangement where both his mother and I have equal voices in making decisions for my son. My son will get an equal amount of time between his mother and I, and we will both be able to contribute to ensuring he gets the love and guidance he needs. Alex and her team also took fiscal constraints into account to do all they to resolve the matter in the most cost-efficient way possible. Their accounting team worked with me as well to ensure that everything was doable. Alex is logical, ethical, responsive, highly effective, punctual, extremely knowledgeable, and a genuinely good person. Her efforts will undoubtedly have a positive impact on my son's life growing up and thereafter --for that I cannot express my gratitude appropriately. Thank you very much Alex!

Truthfully, I am astounded, Alex is by far the absolute BEST attorney you could ever ask for. I'm not just saying this because of how my case turned out but because she truthfully is the best of the best. She is extremely fast at replies to guide you through situations even on holidays and after hour...s as well as if she hasn't heard from you in a while. That alone says enough BUT is not all by far. She is also very quick and extremely diligent in making sure that everything needed to come to a resolution, whether court or settling is done for the absolutely best possible outcome for you. She is also extremely honest and will tell you where she feels going route a or route b will get you and knows when to act. That being said, my own personal case was different and absolutely difficult from day one to proceed and handle. There were many times of feeling defeated and that I might never get my child out of an extremely harmful situation. Despite this she kept my head up and continued to push me every single day to move forward. It was clear she wasn't by any means in it for the money, but she was all in for helping my child and doing what was best for him to ensure his success in life regardless of the walls that were placed in front of us. When I say my case was a long shot and it took me putting my entire faith into my attorney, I mean it, she fought to the very end and I ended up with custody. She doesn't mess around or take your money, she truly is out there to handle WHATEVER the situation may be and beyond. To this day I still have problems and she is more than happy to respond and reach out to help me through as well as make sure that my child is doing well and being successful. That is what sets Alex apart, she's not just your attorney and then never hear from them again, she's someone who genuinely cares and wants to help to maintain what is best in the end. I assure you, you can't go wrong with Alex as your attorney and if you pass her up then you've missed out on the best of the best.

When Alex joined my custody case within the Skillern law firm, she was thrown into an extremely high conflict case with all sorts of the worst issues and allegations that can be thrown around when the going gets tough i.e. alleged rape of a child, CPS allegations at your door, abuse allegations durin...g a home study, etc. Not once did Alex suggest we bow to the intimidation tactics of the other party. She was knowledgeable and assertive and encouraged me to stay the course. In the end, I went from standard non-primary to primary custodial parent. I was told by EVERYONE this would be impossible and to basically just be happy with extended standard possession. I refused to listen and Alex was willing to fight for me and my child. She looks and sounds young and to another lawyer, she may not seem like a threat initially but she should not be underestimated as she has bull dog tenacity and when the other party or party's lawyer tries their hand at a power play they are not entitled to, Alex will absolutely be the first one to shut them down. She was not arrogant and was always willing to listen. Additionally, Alex made sure that the signed custody agreement stated I would get any child support overages I had paid sent back to me. When the other party tried not to pay, Alex stayed on top of calling the OAG Child Support office and sending them whatever paperwork or information they needed and I was able to get over $4,000 paid back to me. Even one of the employees in the Child Support office said she never saw that actually happen before. It's unfortunate, but that's how the system works unless you have someone with chess-like skills who is willing to put in the time and effort. Alex showed the system that dads are just as important as moms and my family is grateful for her guidance and efforts.

I was referred to Alex Gwyn Foster and to get a initial consultation was a breeze. The receptionist emailed me everything so Mrs. Foster could have an idea of the case and how she could help. On the call with her she asked what my expectations were and also voiced her expert opinion from her experien...ce. I had been stuck in the mediation process and it just felt like the ball will never move but as soon as she stepped in the dates were confirmed and even if I wanted to drag my feet she would get me to focus and stay on target. A divorce is not a fun experience especially when a child is involved but she kept doing what she’s best at and had everything finalized before the year ended. I had another lawyer in San Antonio but being the case was in Houston it was time to get counsel in Harris County. Before I had even sent the retainer she gave a ballpark expense and I’m happy to say not only did she stay on target but it was less than expected. There are lawyers that run the clock to bill and lawyers like Mrs. Foster who has a great moral compass that does not try to squeeze you for every dime. I’m so thankful to have been referred to her. Not only was she my lawyer but at times my therapist as well. Though that can get pricey! Without hesitation I would recommend Mrs. Foster to all I care for and anyone else can inquire about the SA lawyer. I know for a fact that if I didn’t find her then today I would be in the exact same spot I was in a year ago. I was at the mercy of the other parent but now I have that peace of mind knowing when I have my child and what my rights are. After everything was said and done she even advised me on further steps I need to be taking over this year so that I have more days with my child. Call her for a consultation and you can thank me for this review later. She is a great human and when she speaks or emails she treats you as a person rather then just another file on her desk. She is going to achieve greatness in her career and she will fight for you and your child. I don’t have the words to express how much of a difference she made in my life in just three months. Feel free to call other family lawyers but I promise after one conversation with her your decision will be made. From a person who just went through Texas divorce the only advice I can give is have an open mind and be willing to meet somewhere in the middle the rest Mrs. Foster will handle. She truly is my personal saving angel because before her I had zero hope. Thank you from my heart Mrs. Foster. If it wasn’t from your knowledge and dedication for family law I would have been still struggling to see my child. I look forward to working with you once I have completed the tasks which you mentioned. I have so much respect for you and as you achieve more just remember all the dads and moms you have helped so they can spend time with their babies. I wish you so much success, happiness and good health. You’re a rockstar and don’t let anything come in the way of what your values & beliefs are. Thank you again so much. I will never forget where I was when I first came to you and in three months you performed a miracle.
