Michael P. Von Blon
About Michael
Biography
Since 1981, The Law Offices of Michael P. Von Blon in Houston, Texas, has focused its practice on family law, with an emphasis in divorce, child custody, child relocation and grandparent custody/visitation rights. Michael P. Von Blon has been a Board Certified Family Law Specialist since 1991, and a Fellow in the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers.
In addition to divorce, Von Blon & Associates focuses on child custody disputes, negotiating and changing visitation rights, child support modifications and child relocation. We have had success advocating for grandparent custody and for a custodial parent's ability to move out of state or out of the country, despite a divorce decree prohibiting relocation.
We firmly believe in amicably negotiating divorce agreements whenever possible. When spouses and their lawyers can clearly and calmly communicate each party's needs and wants, the divorce process may conclude at reduced expense and without creating additional conflict in relationships. In some situations, however, amicable negotiation is impossible. No matter the reason behind a hotly contested divorce, we stand ready to fight for our clients' desired outcome with all the strength of our legal knowledge and years of experience in the Texas courts. We prepare you for the courtroom, allowing you to protect what matters most to you.

Mike is an outstanding lawyer!
I hired Mike to represent me in my divorce in 2015. My ex husband did not get an attorney so Mike consulted with the two of us but because he could only legally represent me he guided me every step of the way in a way that benefited me completely while being completely professional to my ex.

Michael P. Von Blon's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I give Mike Von Blon my highest endorsement. He is an excellent lawyer. I have known him for over 20 years and we have worked together before on multiple legal matters. In my experience, he always provides the highest quality work, dedication to his client's best interest, a thorough understanding of the law, sharp analysis, and a realistic approach to deal with things the way they really are. I have referred clients to him in the past and expect to do so in the future. All the reports that I have received from such clients are very positive. One of Mike's great skills is to listen to his clients and really understand their goals. He is an effective advocate with excellent communications skills. He is also efficient with his time and his client's money. He is the type of lawyer you want to have in your corner when the going gets tough."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Von Blon and I tried a week long jury trial together. He was very professional. He provided good representation for his client and represented him well. The Judge in that jury trial noted our professionalism. He did not waste time on frivolous objections and saved his client a lot of money by sticking to the facts of the case."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Having worked for Michael for seven years, I can attest to his excellence and commitment to his clients' cases, and the integrity with which he conducts his practice."

I would recommend Michael without any reservation or qualification to anyone needing first-rate, superb service."
