Will Fight for the best interest of the child

My attorney Mrs. Okoh-Brown was excellent in my case and I received custody of my son from his mother. During the court case she paid attention to what witnesses were testifying to, and questioned every statement, to reveal the truth which ended in me winning my petition for custody. She is an excell...ent attorney, very straight forward, and precise in her language and actions. I would highly recommend The Okoh-Brown Law Group, PLLC to anyone that is going through a custody battle. She will definitely fight for the best interest of the child.

You are what all dads should be....loving, caring, involved and giving discipline when needed. It was an honor to represent you. Keep being a great dad. we need more dads like you in this world.

Not all hero’s wear capes

As a young father I made many sacrifices for my child and gave up a career. So when his mom denied me important moments in my child’s life and I was always subject to when she would let me see him, I knew I had to do something. When I met attorney Okoh-Brown I knew I had found the right attorney to... fight for me. She handled my case quickly and efficiently. She is an honest and ethical attorney, which is not words you use a lot when talking about lawyers. As a result of her and her team’s hard work I was able to successfully enforce my court order and the judge punished the mom by making her pay several thousand dollars for violating the order. I don’t like to fight but I’m glad I hired a lawyer who knows how to fight and fight to win. Sometimes you have to stand up to show the other party they cannot continue to do what they want. As a result of this lawsuit, the mom has followed the order to the letter and I owe it all to attorney Okoh-Brown. I would give her 100 stars if I could! She is the best!

Michael you are an amazing father and you sacrificed fame and money to be there for your son. It was an honor to represent you and I want all dads to know you have rights and don't think that Texas is only about moms, my 95% + win rate when it comes to representing dads proves that is not true. Thank you for your words, it means a lot because I truly care and do my best for my clients.

Awesome representation

I was lost till referred to MS. Brown her legal team They are the most aggressive and client freindly people i have dealt with in my case. Fathers in these cases dont have a voice she will walk you through yhe processes for the best result I hope i dont need them again but if i do i would not h...esitate to call on them

It warms my heart to represent dads like you. I never knew my dad and so when i get to represent dads who fight for their kids, I'm in that fight too. My passion for good dads have helped me have a 95%+ win rate. I respect you so much. Keep being an awesome dad. :)

Best there is!!

Lisa did an amazing job and very well prepared with my case, I am now able to calmly coparent and easily begin the new chapter of my daughters routine sooner than I thought. Going through situations like this is very stressful and worrisome, but Lisa reassured me and lifted a huge weight from my shou...lders. I could not be grateful enough! If needing representation for you and your child/ren Lisa is the BEST!!

Thank you so much Karen. It is my honor to represent young mothers like you who are doing a great job and trying to make sure the other parent has a relationship with your child. So glad we could get you the schedule you wanted and a nice amount of child support to go along with it. :-)

Posted by Raymond | May 08, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Best lawyer ever!

I cannot thank Lisa enough for all she did for me. I am a young father and she got me custody of my 2 year old daughter who was not in the best environment with her mother. I truly got to see Lisa perform under pressure because she was in another court in person and doing our hearing via zoom. The... other judge was demanding she come into that court and she handled herself so well with our judge and was back and forth and did not miss a beat. She was a master at questioning and cross examining the mother and showing how her actions were hurting our daughter. Lisa was great with her questions and her staff prepared me and my evidence. I felt confident and ready for the hearing. She is direct and to the point, so do not take offense. She truly cares for her clients. You want a lawyer who will fight for you and if you can put being sensitive aside she will get the job done. Thanks so much Lisa and team. You guys are the best!

Thank you so much Raymond. I am always fired up to represent dads like you, who are fighting for their kids when so many dads are not stepping up. You are such a good dad and I am so happy we got you the results you wanted and deserved. I appreciate your kind words and hope i can help many more fathers be in their kids lives because i am a child who grew up not knowing my father, so it is a personal thing for me and why i fight so hard for dads like you.
