So Glad I Found Vicki

I had never spoken with a lawyer and I suddenly needed one to ensure I knew my rights as a father and how best to move forward in regards to custody of my child. A family friend recommended Vicki and luckily I took their advice. Vicki is very professional and took the time to work with me and made... sure I fully understood the whole process and was with me every step of the way. I was very worried at first considering I had never been in a situation like this. Vicki was always willing to reassure me and and answer any questions that would inevitably pop up along the way. Nobody wants to be in a situation where they need legal counsel, especially a child custody case or divorce. But if you do, you want a good lawyer in your corner, believe me. I was so pleased with the service I received that I went back to Vicki again a couple years later when circumstances changed and I needed to have changes made to custody. We just completed the process this month and my child now lives with me full time and we couldn't be happier. I have been, and will continue to recommend Vicki to all of my friends and family whenever the need arises.

Kind, Compassionate, Knowledgeable

Ms. Venza helped me through my divorce. She willingly shared her knowledge and made herself available for consultation by phone and email. She made sure I understood every step in the proceedings. Her wise counsel made a difficult process more bearable.

Vicki, Represented me for a legal custody case for my daughter two years ago in Humble. I am now the primary parent for my daughter and she lives with me full time. She is a great lawyer and I highly recommend her legal services.
