Hal Hale

A friend of mine recommended Hal after my friend went through a tough divorce with joint custody. I expected a difficult joint custody battle and wanted a lawyer who was willing to fight. Hal was always very knowledgeable, direct, professional, and polite. He politely but directly let me know exactly why some of the things I wanted were inconsistent with Texas law. He also set expectations of mediation and if we had to go to court. Hal's ability to read people is even greater than his knowledge of the law. He was up front and honest about billing and everything went as we initially discussed. Hal and his team were very fair and accurate with the billing. When I contacted them they always answered my questions directly and did not keep me on the phone longer than I was willing to talk and they never contacted me unless it was necessary. When I asked Hal about opposing counsel he answered me honestly of their abilities, helping to set expectations. Due to Hal's advice, ability to read and accommodate me, the outcome was favorable to myself and child. I will use him in the future, if necessary.

After a free consultation, Mr. Hale quickly formulated a plan to protect the best interests of my children and myself. Mr. Hale was aggressive, very strategic and extremely knowledgeable in his field. After numerous hearings, Mr. Hale was able to hand over several losses to the opposing counsel. Mr. Hale is an outstanding attorney and I would recommend him to any person needing assistance in family law. You will not be disappointed.

When first I sought legal representation for my divorce, I was scared and had virtually no hope that I could find someone adequately equipped to deal with my particularly complex case. Mr. Hale quickly assuaged my fears and removed any doubt with his self-assuredness, compassion, swift and accurate evaluation of a very tangled and torturous situation, and with his resoluteness. It was clear that Mr. Hale not only possesses legal expertise; he also possesses a keen understanding of the intricate psychological dynamics which accompany the divorce process as well as an uncommon kindness. I left that initial consultation feeling a sense of relief and hope,and even some empowerment. Mr. Hale's communication skills are excellent. He is highly articulate and never fails to truly listen. Moreover, he does so with the utmost of patience and respect. I cannot overstate how much I appreciate that. Also, Mr. Hale is always willing to answer questions and address any and all concerns. He has never once rushed me along because of a busy schedule. Mr. Hale's excellent communication skills did not extend only to me. He has been more than proficient in dealing with opposing counsel and has fought aggressively, in an appropriate manner, and tirelessly on my behalf. Mr. Hale exercises careful and critical thought before arriving at any given conclusion or rendering any necessary judgment or corresponding plan of action. So often, I would bombard him with massive quantities of information and/or far too wordy communications. Whereas I, more often than not, felt overwhelmed with all the information and struggled to determine what was necessary, Mr. Hale had a remarkable ability to filter through it all and pull out the most salient pieces. His analytical skills truly amaze me. How anyone can absorb such large quantities of information is difficult for me to comprehend. I admire Mr. Hale greatly. for not only is he exceptionally bright and extremely talented at what he does, he is a man of unequalled integrity whom provided me limitless support, encouragement, and compassion throughout the most difficult time of my entire life. I do not possess words sufficient to express the depth of my gratitude for Mr. Hal Hale and his single-minded dedication to me as a client and as an human being. Nor, can I recommend such an exceptional man highly enough. No individual could not consider themselves extremely fortunate to have this great man as one's attorney or as one's friend.

Hal was great to work with! He was quick, responsive, and knowledgeable. Divorce is a stress full time and having a trusted resource to guide me through the process made it much easier. I highly recommend Hal if you are considering or going through a divorce.

Mr. Hal Hale was court appointed Amicus Attorney in my divorce and child custody case. He is remarkably honest, sharp, analytical and to the point attorney. When you meet him, you will find that he speaks less but listens and evaluates more. He is rational and intelligent. He prepares very well for his cases and present himself in a daring and super aggressive manner in the court room which you can’t predict during your meetings with him. Although, there were so many ups and down in my case but I really appreciate that Mr. Hale was fair to all the parties and at the same time, he was thinking only the best outcome for my children whom he was appointed to represent by the court.
