Self Employed

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

Top Notch Personal and Professional

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.

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.

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.
