Great Family Attorney

I have hired Miss Drew for a number of issues concerning my special needs son. She well versed in family law and experienced with cases that involve special needs minors. I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Superlative Legal Counsel for a Complex Divorce

I am writing to provide a professional reference for Stefanie Drew of Holmes, Diggs and Eames, PLLC in Houston, Texas. I retained Ms. Drew in 2015 after consulting with her on my divorce case. I found Stefanie to be the utmost professional with over 15 years of experience in family law. She was pa...tient, nonjudgmental, and provided me with the information I needed to minimize my losses, preserve my paternal rights, and make the divorce as hassle-free as it could possibly be. She also was able to bring the plaintiff to the table and make a mediation happen which, as I understand it, is relatively rare. Stefanie worked diligently to ensure that my interests were addressed and was very responsive throughout the entire process. The only regret I have is that I should have listened to her sooner and acted on her advice immediately. She's a great attorney and i highly recommend Stefanie as well as HDand E law firm without any reservations.

Extremely detailed and Professional!

Stefanie was introduced to our case midway through, and I am so thankful for her extensive knowledge regarding child custody issues. She keep me informed at all times, she made my fight her own! Stefanie walked us through everything! She is patient and very professional, without Stefanie our case ...could not have been settled. Her follow up and dedication was truly appreciated! We could not have gotten through this without her! She is tough and will tell you right where you stand and stand with you to get the outcome you want. She tells you like it is, and fights with you. Her knowledge is extensive in custody issues. I cannot thank her enough for her hard work put in. I would recommend Stefanie to anyone with a complex custody issue!

Stefanie Drew

Stefanie Drew is a horrible lawyer, she never responds to me and ignores my calls. My divorce could have been finalized 6 months ago, but she will not finish the paper work. Do not hire her for any reason

Great Family Lawyer Stefanie Drew

I was introduced to Stefanie about Two years ago. I find her to be very honest and knowledgeable about Family Law. Stefanie was very punctual and deliberate and was able to anticipate what was going to happen with the issues that we faced in my case. Her follow-up about the case is refreshing and g...ave me a feeling that she is doing her job and then some. I would recommend her to other potential clients.
