Great Lawyer

I hired Mike's firm but mostly dealt with Adelina. She is one of the law partners. She got me divorced in about 63 days. Everything was really fast. I had no problems at all.

Good experience with Mike

I hired Mike and his staff for a divorce. I had a business with my husband for 10 years. My husband spent large sums of money on women and drinking. Mike was able to trace the amount that my husband spent and get the judge to give me a larger share of the business. It turned out to be about 65 to 35 ...in my favor. Mike is a good trial lawyer. I will give him that, sometimes he is vulgar in his analogies but still a good attorney.

Great lawyer with military law experience(USCMJ)

I'm a U.S navy sailor station overseas that had a divorce here In Houston Texas. I had now where to to run for help until a family friend recommended Mike Busby. I called him during my working hours European standard time meaning late evening here in Houston, mr Busby is very knowledgeable in regar...ds to military law as he is with family law. So after two hours of talking on the phone for free with mike, he came up with a game plan to assist me the best way possible until I got back home with my divorce. Once here the battle was long and hard, most of the time looking bad on my side but mr Busby never gave up on me. Now I have full custody of my two girls without any geographical restrictions or any restrains whatsoever. I have my military career still and full benefits for my girls and I thanks to Mike Busby and his team.

Excellent and Afforable

I hired Mr. Busby as my divorce lawyer in 2011. My divorce included a custody battle of two preschool girls. In all occasions he provided accurate information in a professional manner. At no time during the divorce was I lead on that the outcome would favor me. This can be a hard realization, but at ...a confusing and trying time I can say that honest and clear information is welcomed. His demeanor is passed on through his staff as well. I had never received any legal service prior hiring Michael as my attorney and in the instance that I ever require legal services again, in the fields that he specialize in, I would not think twice to hire him again. My experience included regular meeting and updates on my case. As well as being instructed on how to present myself during the trial. I feel this payed off hugely during the trial. There were several instances that I was instructed not do or say certain things that I saw my ex-wife do and the reaction from the judge was not favorable to her. Just being prepared for the trail was worth the fees alone. Also as a trial lawyer he displayed to me his vast knowledge of the law and experience. I cannot say the same about the lawyer that my ex choose. Only having seen two lawyers in trial in my life I benefited that mine was Michael Busby and not the one that she chose. As it turned out the results were in my favor and he kept what was the most important to me in my life, my children. Also, I would say that in the time of a divorce money is a major factor. Understanding this he makes a divorce possible financially without leaving you financially burdened that you cannot pick up the pieces of your life and move forward. I would highly recommend anyone that is unfortunately having to end a marriage to utilize his his experience and skills to help protect you and your family.

Great lawyer

The reviews and free consultant drew me in. My divorce took a year to complete due to the opposing lawyer. Mike and his team where always very nice and understanding even when i was not. Our first mediation happen to be the Friday of the start of hurricane Harvey. They called and ask if i still want...ed to come or reschedule. They where there in the office working during the incoming storm, so i said if your there im still coming. Lucky them there office did not flood but my ex husband lawyer office did so thats why the divorce took longer. Mike was very informational he explained everything to me to make sure i understood which my husband lawyer seem to not explain anything to him as he seemed to be confused about everything that was going on. Which was a plus for me. I won everything i wanted. I got the house with all the equity and child support. Mike is fair and he also wanted me to understand what was worth fighting for and what was not in able to save me time and money from going through a court battle and fighting over a few hundred dollars that would cost me more lawyer fee's. So thats an awesome lawyer to have. He left the decision up to me. He has a funny side which is nice over all im happy with there services. They worked with you on the cost. They discounted alot of things. I even called and complain about a FEW items i didn't think i should be billed for and they took it off without a problem or fuss. Im talking about $500 worth of little things. Plus at the end of my case i receives another discount. They allowed payments which i loved. My husband had to pay in lump sums. They never asked for $1,000's at a time. I paid every 2 weeks what i could afford as that is what they told me. Overall be patience with them. They are working on your case even when you don't realize they are. I can be very difficult at times and they where understanding.
