Julia Lynette Bancroft

Mrs. Bancroft helped us with my daughter's child support issues. She is just not an attorney but also a very compassionate, caring and reliable individual who is there to answer your questions and to guide you every step of the way. We can't thank her enough for all the help and guidance. If you are ...looking for a family lawyer, Julia Bancroft should be on top of your list.

Julia represented me on a child custody case and she went above and beyond anything I could have imagined, even traveling to a court outside of her normal area. Julia is very thorough and detail oriented and was always on top of everything. Sometimes I felt like I was her only client because she was ...so aware of all of the minute details that happened along the way. The case dragged on for a while (like all family cases do), but she was always giving me pep talks and keeping me from losing my faith. In the end, I got the custody of my kids and the conditions were way more than I expected to get and it was all due to Julia’s focus and determination to make sure my kids got what they deserved and not to settle for less. I can’t recommend Julia enough and I know without her, my kids would not be enjoying the life they have now.

Ms. Julia was the amicus attorney with my child custody battle. I don't have enough words to talk about her. She was very professional, sincere, dedicated and hardworking. She stood for the truth and was the main person to ensure justice. She did an excellent job for the best of my kids. I was surpr...ised with the way she worked with me. She notices even the minute details. Her background as a criminal lawyer helped a lot to identify the truth. She is smart, experienced and a wonderful person. She made each and every conversations a memorable one by relieving my stress. My kids loved her. I extend my sincere thanks.. I wish her good luck!!

Julia is a top notch attorney who clearly cares about her clients as well as the child's best interest. Because she was once employed by the Domestic Relations office in Harris County, Julia is able to effectively navigate you through the child custody modification process. I would recommend Julia... to anyone going through a sticky child custody battle. She helped me make good decisions about my case, without braking the bank.

My ex-husband and his new wife filed suit against me to modify his child support. I am in the oil and gas industry and had lost my job a year and a half ago and was without comparable work and pay for a year. At the time the suit was brought against me, I was barely making ends meet and had to modify... my living arrangements (I’m certain he counted on me not being able to financially afford to retain representation) – and he was right. I tried to Answer his Petition and was considering representing myself. He was asking that his child support be reduced by almost $600/mo. and was also asking for me to pay his attorney fees. After further prayer and thought, I knew this was a risk that I could not take, so I began praying that God would make a way for me to be able to afford representation and I began praying he’d put the right attorney in front of me. I was speaking with an old friend and he told me about Julia. She represented him in a modification suit where his ex-wife was wanting a modification for an increase. He said Julia is super sharp, on top of her game and a fighter. That is exactly who and what I needed. One week before mediation I received a bonus from my company and it was enough for me to make an initial payment to retain Julia (thank you Jesus). After speaking with her, she immediately made me feel more at ease about the situation. Odds were stacked against me, but she told me her own personal story and I knew she was passionate about her cause and was not looking for just another dollar, but to truly help me and more importantly, my son. During our proceedings we had to mediate twice, had a temporary hearing (of which the judge didn’t make any modifications at that time), and then a final hearing. Throughout the entire ordeal Julia was always reachable and was very diligent about returning my calls, emails or text messages. She was very passionate about my case and exuded confidence and compassion. She knew the law, but still spent countless hours reviewing my case, reviewing the law, reviewing other cases to reference in my suit, and was always very well prepared. She always acted in a professional manner (even when other representation didn’t always). The case was being heard in a small town, of whom, my ex’s attorney regularly practiced. Julia had only practiced just a few times in this town and therefore, had no previous knowledge on how this judge typically rules, and she was the outsider. While in mediation, she was effectively presenting that my ex-husband was under-employing himself, so that he could have the child support reduced, the mediator tells us that the odds are stacked against us that the judge would never rule in our favor. Julia did not see this as a negative, but kept her composure and her professionalism, and saw it rather as a challenge. She put together a brief on my case, all the financials and timelines of my ex’s work history, reason for leaving jobs, ect. and presented it to the judge, even after the mediator had told us the judge wouldn’t even read it. Ultimately, the judge read her brief. We left the court room with my ex having to pay me more per month than what he was paying me when he filed the suit. Julia fought long and hard for me. Julia continuously exercised unprecedented poise and professionalism. She’s a compassionate, smart attorney that will stay up all night working on your case. If Julia accepts your case, she gives you her all! You will have hired a warrior! She prepares for her battles and she will do all she can to make sure you win your war! Thank you Julia for going to war with me!
