DO NOT USE THIS LAWYER

tony ducket is always late unprepared and apparently has no strength in a court room, He botch my divorce terribly. He does'nt even recall details from court date to court date, he simply gave in to everything my bitter x wife wanted, i even have to go to jail for failure to pay child support from 05... and 06 even though were together and did'nt seperated until 08.

I have no idea who this person is; however, child support related issues are typically enforced by the Texas Attorney General-Child Support Division.

No Power in Court! Does not know how to speak up on your behalf! AVOID!

Only good with filing paperwork...He has not litigation skills at all and very scared or nervous to speak up in court. Poor listening and retaining skills.. He will just sit back and watch your case go down hill and do nothing to help you. He will not speak up when he should and when he does, he read...s from a script of questions. Very slow to respond and will never take the lead and will avoid conflict at all cost. Out of his league as a attorney and has the nerve to be high priced . SMDH! Very dissatisfied client..

As I recall, this client actually won the case and won custody of the teenage child. As an attorney, we are required to follow the Texas Rules of Professional Responsibility. These rules govern how we conduct ourselves with the Court, opposing counsel and opposing parties. Clients caught up in tumultuous custody cases don't really care about these rules, but attorneys and judges do. In the end, the facts, the relevant evidence, and the law prevailed in favor of this client. Despite the poor rating, I would represent this client in the future.

Great Attorney; Will help you

Tony is great. I had a criminal case, he helped me from the beginning to the end. The one thing I liked was the payment plan option and his price is reasonable. I was actually referred to him by someone and I would definately recommend him to anyone who needs help. If you want an affordable lawyer, w...ho will actually answer when you call, will be in court when you need, won't give you "fluff" and who knows what he's talking about, you'll call Tony. Enough said.

Divorce Attorney

He was excellent, very professional, kept everything together, great listener, kept full communication and gave me the right information to make the right decision regarding my divorce. I would recommend Tony very highly for anyone that is looking for a great attorney!

Mr. Tony K. Kuckett

I found Mr. Duckett to be extremely knowledgeable and understanding of my needs through the process of my divorce. He provided advice and clear direction as it related to my case and was a comfort to me though out this very difficult ordeal. I would certainly turn to him in the future should I need... any legal advice or direction. I found his legal expertise and knowledge of the law to be nothing less than outstanding. I have and will continue to share my experience with others who are seeking legal advice and/or council. I highly recommend Mr. Duckett as an overall EXCELLENT Attorney.
