House Deed

Mrs. Wincott was amazing. Explained everything perfectly. Added my father to my house deed and it only took 2 days. Could have been faster if I emailed my documents over to her sooner. Highly recommended. Thank you Mrs. Wincott.

Excellent Service!

I have experienced the most professional and most efficient immigration services at Wincott Law Firm. Tammy is an amazing lawyer, very professional and good person at heart. She was extremely helpful and well organized throughout the whole application process. She prepared all the documents fast and ...correct, always answering all the questions I had and was constantly updating me on progress. I have a lot of trust in her work and highly recommend her for any of your legal needs. Thank you Tammy!

Rachel, Thank you for your positive remarks about Wincott Law Firm and Attorney Tammy L. Wincott. We are not the cheapest firm; however, we strive to rise above others through customer service and providing the clients with online case access. The firm is located in San Antonio, Texas and can accept clients from around the world for immigration or Bexar County and surrounding counties such as Comal, Blanco, Guadalupe, Kendall, Bandera, Atascosa, Wilson, etc. for local issues like family law, divorce, wills and probate or bankruptcy. You will meet directly with the attorney and our new location in a designated historical home north of downtown San Antonio immediately puts clients at ease. Since relocating here in February of 2015, I've received nothing but positive responses and all indicate they are so much more comfortable. Please contact us should you or others you know need an attorney in the future. Please see the website as our phone number has changed. Thank you again for your kind words and your choice of Wincott Law Firm for your legal needs.

Highly Recommended

I definitely would recommend Tammy to anyone looking for an experienced attorney who is truly passionate about and dedicated to her work. Tammy was very upfront right from the start about the amount of time and work put in that it would take to work on my case. Understanding how imminent and sensit...ive my case was, as it directly involved the well-being/safety of my child, Tammy took nothing 'with a grain of salt' ; I was given prompt updates every step of the way. Everything she said she would do, was done and not once was she 'too busy' to consult with me. Having an attorney in a time of desperate need who took my case to heart and spent countless hours not only preparing, but understanding my case was crucial. She went above and beyond for me and my family!!!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
