Ryan A. Beason

This case should have been "open and shut", which is what Ryan said at our consultation. WORST MISTAKE I'VE EVER MADE! My ex is a drug addict and used to beat me (i have police reports).. thanks to Bailey & Galyen, my ex now has joint custody of my 5 year old son who doesn't even know who the guy is!...!. Divorce was filed Oct 2012 and I didn't hear a WORD from ANYONE in the firm until I called in February asking what is going on. All I got was, "we can't locate him". COULDN'T HAVE SAID SOMETHING 3 MONTHS AGO?!?! So as they sat on their butts, doing NOTHING, I hunted my ex down. Took ONE day. Got him served. Guess what?! They sat on their butts some more, giving him time to retain an attorney and it was IMPOSSIBLE to get ANY advice or information OR return emails or calls from these people through the ENTIRE process!! But you better believe they racked up some money from me the whole time! I'm over $6,000 into it and, 12 months after filing the petition, the judge still has not signed the decree.

Mr. Beason did a wonderful job of getting my Tennessee divorce decree registered and filed in Texas. He then proceeded to get the decree modified in Harris County. I appeared one time in Houston for mediation and the case was resolved. My ex-wife’s withholding of the children was resolved and I am fi...nally spending meaningful time with my children and meeting my ex-wife halfway in between for turnovers. Previously, I had to travel to Houston unless it was a 3-day weekend or longer. Now I get to have my boys at their home in Louisiana, meeting half-way, every other weekend. This has made all of the difference in me getting to spend more time with my sons. Since the case has been resolved, he has answered my questions promptly without additional charges. Even on the weekends, he promptly responds to my email or call. I have had a bad experience with a divorce lawyer in the past, and, all I can say is, I wish Mr. Beason has been on my side from the beginning. I have the utmost respect for him, and I cannot stress how strongly I believe in his work ethic. Lawyers get a bad name, but stereotyping is not accurate in this case. I have a corporate lawyer which I respect tremendously, and I feel the same way about Mr. Beason and how helps me with my two boys in Houston. I would recommend him to anyone who values a straight-shooter who believes in Father's rights.
