Deanna Lynn Whitley

During what was undoubtedly one of the most challenging times of my life Ms. Deanne Whitley proved to be an excellent attorney and an invaluable support. She navigated through my divorce proceedings with sensitivity and grace. Ms. Whitley was thorough in her approach and remained transparent, ensurin...g I understood all while being sensitive to my health conditions and feelings. Attorney Whitley and her team of professionals demonstrated genuine care and empathy, which had a profound impact on my experience. Ms. Whitley’s attention to detail and empathy made a difficult and highly emotional time in my life a lot easier. I am deeply grateful for Ms. Whitley’s service and highly recommend her to anyone facing similar circumstances. If you need a professional, highly skilled / experienced, dedicated and compassionate Attorney and Team, do not hesitate to contact The Whitley Law Firm. You will never regret your decision to do so.

1000% the best lawyers in South Texas! I cannot even begin to express the amount of gratitude my children and I have for these ladies and the entire staff. From the secretary, the billing coordinator, the paralegals, to the lawyers themselves answered all of my questions to my confusion when I was go...ing through an ugly divorce. They gave me the strength and the fire I needed to get through this devastating time in our lives because I was so lost, broken and weak, but not anymore. They answered my phone calls on the weekends, returned my emails, and answered my personal text messages when I needed them. They represented me with class, and the intelligence that most would not understand. All of these ladies made me feel comfortable, safe, and let me know that I was no longer alone anymore. They took half of my money down upfront and let me pay the rest in payments because I am a single mother now. Whitley Law Firm is hands down the place to go if you want to WIN your case! Sincerely, Kimberly Madrid

I hired Deanna and her team in 2018 when my marriage of 23 years was coming to an end - with a final divorce date of May 2019. Deanna and Dallas and the team were non-judgemental, supportive, and patient, while diligent and thoughtful in all their dealings with me and my ex's numerous attorneys. I kn...ew I was in good hands when I showed up for mediation and the mediator confided in me that he always enjoys working with the Whitley Law Firm. They were recommended to me by my victim advocate on JBSA due to their help with military divorces and difficult circumstances. I was able to put all of my trust in them completely - provide them with the facts and they would navigate the system to benefit both myself and my children. They helped me navigate selling a house, transferring names from cars, getting military benefits and a nasty tax situation. If they can avoid court - they will. And they have great relationships with their fellow attorneys. I keep Deanna on speed dial and know they will be for me when I need them again - which seems to be a trend for my dear ex. I suggest you contact them for a consultation if you are in need - you won't regret it.

I interviewed a wealth of attorneys as I sought to divorce a very manipulative and abusive man. It was going to be critical for me to find a smart, fearless and experienced team that would also relate to me in both a direct, yet compassionate manner. I had done plenty homework on what to expect in ...a quality attorney, but still felt befuddled at whatever legal future events loomed ahead. I interviewed and by-passed a number before finding Attorney Whitley. I set my intentions on checking out Attorney Whitley, realizing that an attorney is only as powerful and competent as her team. What a team! My first encounter was an intake interview with one of her staff. By the time I finished clarifying my case, needs and concerns while also listening to responses and information given me, I felt at great ease. If this team member truly represented the essence of the Whitley Law Firm, I knew this should be my choice. By the end of my intake interview, I felt heard, regarded and well positioned. I felt I had possibly found the team to do this critical life-impacting work for me. My next step was to then meet Attorney Whitley. I was understandably nervous for I wanted this to work, based on what I had already experienced. Still, I recognized that she had to be that one complex piece of the legal puzzle, offering a glove-snug fit. Before meeting Attorney Whitley, her receptionist greeted me with a calm that I took effort to note. If her demeanor was indicative of an overriding welcoming and confident team spirit, then this was likely to be another great experience. I was led into Attorney Whitley’s office and shared my case. Neither pushing nor shoving, she queried and commented in a manner that helped hone my delivery, astutely revealing specifics of my need. Attorney Whitley took time to listen intently, as if I were her only. Her cool, competent demeanor was empowering. She responded in specifics to my case, never disrespectfully lending to general conveyor-belt assessment. She possessed a grit signaling that she would not be tampered with – and neither would her clients be. How I needed someone who would know how to turn up the heat and fight for me, if warranted. With zero reservation, I decided that Attorney Whitely and her team would represent me. In the months that followed, I interfaced with one of her highly expert paralegal staff. I respected her manner for we were able to address finer details in direct nature without wasting time or needless back and forth communications. I never felt any "stone left unturned" and my every query was swiftly and professionally addressed. Time came for the mediation – done via Zoom due to COVID. That’s when I met Attorney Dallas Olsen. Groundwork astutely done by para-legal, Dallas now worked with me in live virtual online forum. The best way for me to describe her competence is to say it plainly. Attorney Dallas “kicked butt”! I watched her discuss and pen my case like a champ for me. By the time all was done, I was indeed awarded what I had hoped. I attributed this to the thorough work of Attorney Olsen. She later accompanied me into the judge’s chamber to conclude the divorce. It comforted me to see this titan of a woman once again representing me. Her calming, no-nonsense demeanor reassured me that every “jot and tittle” of the law would be addressed – and it was. Lastly, my interfaces with the financial staff of Attorney Whitley’s firm were all positive, swift and exact. I always knew where I stood financially. That was important to me for it was critical to be able to govern my funds with certainty. I most highly recommend Attorney Deanne Whitley and her efficacious “A” Team to anyone needing hefty legal representation. They absolutely deliver!
