Custody Case

After being attacked by false accusations by my angry stalker soon to be ex husband and completely neglected and robbed of my entire life savings from my first lawyer, Deanna stepped in and cleaned up a mess that most people would not want to deal with. Not only did she get the current lawyer Roger S...tephens, who had stolen $7k retainer and refused to allow me to fire him, she also was able to write a custody agreement that was fair and in the best interest of my child. Deanna and Kat are professional, organized, and help put your mind at ease during a very stressful time. It was clear that she was a respected lawyer in the court room. She is honest, fair, and understanding. I highly recommend hiring her for a high intensity custody case.

Brilliant. Impressive. Knowledgeable. Strong. Total blessing to me.

I would recommend Deanna & the entire Whitley Law Firm staff thousands of times over if I could. In February 2020, I received an offer for my dream job - which was out of state. I attempted to compromise with my daughter's father, but my attempts failed & ended in him telling me if I wanted to take t...he job and keep my daughter, we'd have to go to court. After a decade of the bullying, manipulation & using my daughter as a pawn & a means to control, I had enough. This was an opportunity that would change the trajectory of my career and the quality of my daughter's life, as well as future opportunities. So, I began my search for a lawyer. I prayed that God would guide me in my search & that I would know who to hire. After dozens of phone calls to multiple offices, I called The Whitley Law Firm & a beautiful soul named Cait picked up the phone. After dozens of calls to people who were clearly uninterested in my life changing event, when Cait answered the phone - there was finally someone on the other end of the line who cared enough to listen. She then went a step further, telling me to take a deep breath, explaining that she herself is a mom & she knew what I was going through. And then proceeding to tell me that - although she couldn't guarantee anything, she'd been doing this a long time & thought I was in a good spot & a conversation with Ms. Whitley and her team would confirm that. So, I scheduled the call & hired the firm. BEST. Decision. EVER. Lonie worked with me on the day to day correspondence, but Deanna was involved every step of the way. Ultimately, we were able to settle out of court the day we were scheduled for our hearing & I got everything I requested in my counter offer. Our lives are forever changed by Deanna, Loni, Cait & the expertise & professionalism of the entire Whitley Law Firm staff. I hope I never have to hire another family law attorney, but there isn't anyone else that I would hire to represent me & fight for my family. If you are still on the fence about hiring Deanna after seeing these reviews, here is what I can tell you is absolute TRUTH... You may not be sure that this is the right firm for you, but you can be 100% ABSOLUTELY SURE that you do NOT want her representing the person on the other side of the court room.

Ethical, talented and kind

Deanna L. Whitley is an exceptionally talented litigator, as well as ethical and compassionate professional, who zealously represented me in a divorce proceeding. She was very responsive to my questions and concerns. Given her diligence, persistence and skill, she obtained an expedited setting to f...inalize my divorce, despite the time restrictions imposed by COVID-19. Her deft, experienced staff frequently updated me on my divorce progress. Divorce is traumatic. However, when represented by a wise and bright lawyer like Deanna, the client is confident that his or her rights/goals will be aggressively pursued. I was always prepared, by Deanna and her staff. My concerns were allayed, because I received prompt learned legal counsel. Altogether, I hold The Whitley Law Firm, PC in the highest regard, recommending them as the most skilled, proficient and knowledgeable family law attorneys/staff in San Antonio, Texas and surrounding areas.

Amazing!

We have a difficult and delicate situation and the Whitley Law Firm were the first ones to listen and give me helpful and useful information. I had talked to many law firms before I found these amazing people. The only reason we did not hire them is because we are in Oklahoma and they are in Texas.

Happy Heart ❤️

Our family recently reached out to Mrs. Whitley’s law firm mind you we’ve never had to seek much less hire a attorney. We called to ask general questions expecting to have to wait weeks to see her and much to our surprise she was able and very willing to see us the same day. After going over details... of our case she was 100% on board to help us. She assured us that we would be able to get all of this matter taken care of and she was right. In the end of this journey we walked away with exactly what we wanted. Along the way we were in constant contact with the office and everyone at the firm was always willing to listen and answer our sometimes redicoulous questions without making us feel like we were clueless. Mrs. Whitley was outstanding she new the law and we never felt like she wasn’t doing her very best for us. My family will forever be grateful to Mrs. Whitley and her entire team for getting us through one of the most heart wrenching times of our lives. She is now and will forever be part of our family. The Valdez Family
