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.

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

I am sorry that you have had a bad experience with my firm. This matter does not sound familiar, and I strive for the utmost client satisfaction in every case. Please contact me directly to discuss your specific concerns.

Keep it real.

Stefanie is very honest and forthcoming with information. She is very "no nonsense" and did not sugar coat things. Stefanie did not allow me to be treated as a doormat by opposing counsel and helped me handle the stress that goes along with custody issues. I felt empowered, encouraged and overall,... I am very happy with the results of my divorce.

Excellent Lawyer

Stephanie is a great lawyer! She helped me through a really bad time. She got me custody of my children and made sure that I got what I deserved from my ex. I would recommend her to anyone!
