Hal Hale

After going through a year of divorce negotiations, including 3 unsuccessful mediations, Hal was a GODSEND. Within 48 hours of retaining Hal, my divorce was settled. I cannot say enough good things about Hal. He has an extensive knowledge of Family Law, and he was able to apply that knowledge to the ...specifics of my complicated case. In an effort to save me money, Hal was able to review all of the details of my case in a very reasonable amount of time, and give me a thorough, but understandable (!), explanation of how the law applies to my specific case. When I asked him for his opinion on how to proceed at various crossroads, he would give me his honest answer and good reasons to support his answer, and still respect whatever choice I made. He is incredibly easy to contact by phone, text, or email with his almost immediate response times. I have never worked with a lawyer like Hal before. I am so glad to know him, and I have already referred him to some friends.

Hal represented me for my divorce, and he exceeded all of my expectations. I started the process almost 2 years ago after retaining another lawyer which didn’t do much to move along the process. I then retained Hal in November of 2023, and he went above and beyond to make sure the process went smooth...ly and walked me through everything to ensure I understand what was going to happen. My divorce was finalized May of 2024 and it was the best case scenario, thanks to Hal. I would highly recommend Hal Hale to represent you as an attorney.

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 exac...tly 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. M...r. 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 e...valuation 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.
