Kathy Leclaire White

I was facing a custody dispute with my two-year old son's mother, we had an agreed order in place originally, split custody where she got Mon/Tues nights, I got Wed/Thurs nights, and we alternated weekends. It was a great arrangement for both of us and the best scenario for our son. His mom was still... bitter over our past relationship and less than a year into our arrangement she became upset with me and filed a motion to modify. I'm an attorney (with family law experience) and was comfortable discussing the proposed modification pro-se, with her attorney. After a couple months of back and forth we reached an agreement, no change in our custody arrangement, basically no change at all except that she wanted the ability to have me drug tested, which I was fine with. All that was left was signatures. Then mom became upset with me about something totally unrelated, backed out of the proposed agreement, fired her attorney, hired a new one, AND FILED FOR A PROTECTIVE ORDER. She was not only seeking full custody now, she was trying to keep me from seeing my son for at least two years. I was shocked and quite frankly scared to death. It was completely frivolous, but who knows what the judge would believe. I was served with the protective order out of the blue, after work on a Wednesday during Spring Break of 2022. I called two attorneys the next day, both were on vacation. Immediately panic mode set in and here I was, facing a temporary ex parte protective order and was basically representing myself in a case that could ultimately end up in me not being able to see my only son for AT LEAST two years... by the grace of God I came across Kathy White's profile on one of these websites. She was from the same hometown as me, so I figured what the heck, I called and spoke with her assistant. I told her my story and they immediately set up an online consultation for the following day. I was nervous as anyone could ever be, it was awful. I couldn't sleep or eat or think of anything else other than the possibility of losing my son. The next day came and as soon – and I mean AS SOON as my meeting with Ms. White began – I started to feel at ease. By the end of our short, 30-minute meeting, I was elated. I knew I’d found the right person to represent me. From that point on, I was still stressed and concerned as anyone should be, but I was confident in my attorney and her representation of me. Long story short, the protective order was dismissed, DISMISSED, and after mediation, an agreement as to the modification was reached. No change in custody. No child support (I had already agreed to cover costs of all medical and daycare pursuant to the original agreement with mom). Even the drug testing, which I was fine with originally, was included so as to require both of us, not just me, to submit to drug testing upon the request of the other party. It was long, and arduous, but in the end, my custody situation was better off than when it started, and my relationship with my son’s mom is actually better now than it was when we first split up. Kathy White did the dirty work for me, without even playing dirty. She just did her job, a GREAT freaking job, and I owe so much to her and her staff for it. I couldn’t recommend a better advocate, especially for someone who, like me, is scared to death of losing the right to be with their children. Call Kathy White, seriously. T. Hamilton, Houston, TX.

Kathy White did an absolutley amazing job on my case. It started with me getting called to court by the AG’s office wanting to give my ex-wife more child support, even though my sons lived with me, and I was on my own and looked like I wasn’t going to win even though my kids lived with me and not he...r. Then I found Mrs. White, and it went from a nightmare, to me getting my child support stopped, and her paying me child support. She also won me (THE DAD) FULL custody of both of my kids! I have never been happier with a lawyer and can’t say enough how much I recommend her to ANYONE. If you need a lawyer, or not even sure if you do need a lawyer, she’s the one you need to go see!
