Posted by Shelby | December 20, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Termination without an adoption IN TEXAS!!

I have used two separate lawyers for my child custody case that started in 2011, one in Houston and Mr. Anderson in Bellville. I paid a ton more for the one in Houston and was completely upset when all was said and done. I had been fighting for more than a year recently without a lawyer to just get a... dime after my sons father stopped paying child support and nothing ever happened other than disappointments and many case resets. I hired Mr. Anderson in October 2018 2 weeks before my court date that has been being pushed back and reset since 2017, we were not only done with court, but I got more than I could ever have prayed for in less than a month. We went from fighting for 20K+ in child support to having the very absent but stubborn and toxic father sign his rights over to me without an adoption taking place.. in Harris County this is rare, but it's more than I ever dreamed of happening and exactly what we needed. Thanks to Mr. Anderson he turned 7 years of fighting into 1 month of winning, closure and freedom. I can't recommend this lawyer enough. If you need someone to fight for you, to do the unthinkable, to challenge the system, to go above and beyond all while explaining everything to you and really making sure you understand, and most importantly -winning, he's your guy! I will be using Mr. Anderson for any future legal needs, I really felt like I had a friend fighting for me and not the typical lawyer. Give him a shot, you will NOT be disappointed!!

Divorced

Mr. Anderson represented me for my divorce. When meeting him for the first time I asked him for quick and easy divorce. His response was I am going to do my best ( from Date filed you have to wait 61 day) !! Well 61 days after he filed my divorce it was final. He went above and beyond, was extremely ...helpful, down to earth, and seemed to really care about the person he is representing!!! I will keep him on speed dial for future legal needs.

Dismissed!

Turned over a CDL traffic citation to Mr. Anderson. He was prompt and swift and was able to have the citation dismissed. The price was extremely reasonable and i would highly recommend him to anyone needed to have any legal issue resolved! He will have our business in all future incidents. Thank ...you Mr. Anderson.

Case Dismissed!!!

We hired John Anderson to represent us for a speeding ticket that surfaced after several years in Texas. We live in Pennsylvania and were worried about how to handle it. Attorney Anderson was extremely helpful and put our minds at ease right away. He handled our case quickly and efficiently and we... were blown away that he was able to get the entire case dismissed! I agree with other reviewers that he has a laid back demeanor, but don't mistake that for lack of drive. His personality is an asset. He provides a sense of calm in otherwise stressful situations. I hope to never need legal assistance in the future, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to contact Attorney John Anderson again. He exceeded our expectations.

Best Attorney I've had yet....

Attorney Anderson worked helped me get a PR bond something that I shouldn't have gotten because I was in jail for jumping bond long story short a month later after I was released my case was dismissed
