Tina Cheryl Torres

I have often been accused of being "over-protective" of my children, and even being referred to as a "helicopter mom", so the thought of losing custody of my son never even crossed my mind. That is, until the attorney general's office increased the non-custodial parent's child support, and he decide...d to file suit against me for custody, in retaliation. My immediate response was panic and heartbreak. Because I am not a resident of Bexar County, I had no idea who to contact for help. I reached out to a friend (who obviously heard the desperation in my voice) and strongly recommended I contact Ms. Torres' office right away. I did so, and I am so relieved that I did! From the very beginning, Ms. Torres, along with her staff, were extremely diligent and made me feel as if the fate of my son's custody was just as critical as any other case they may have been handling. I am not familiar with the court system and it's processes, so I am very thankful Ms. Torres took my case. She was efficient and took the time to answer all of my questions THOROUGHLLY throughout the entire process! I appreciated her professional and honest opinion regarding the circumstances of my case. Ms. Torres' experience proved to be invaluable as she is extremely knowledgeable and provided clarity and reassurance for me during this stressful time. (It is no wonder she is so well-respected in the Bexar County courthouse!) Ms. Torres' aggressive approach to handling my case made me confident in my decision to invest my faith in her to protect the rights of my family. My children are my most cherished gifts from God and I will always be grateful to Ms. Torres and her team for their commitment to supporting me in protecting my son's best interest. It is with a grateful heart that I confidently recommend anyone in need of legal representation for family matters to contact the office of Ms. Tina Torres.

Going through a divorce is one of the most difficult life events that any individual may have to deal with. Adding children to the equation only makes the issues even more challenging. One critical factor in dealing with a divorce is having an attorney who will represent you and ensure you are awar...ded a fair trial resulting in an appropriate ruling. After an entire year of dealing with issues and arguments from the opposing counsel and paying huge amounts in attorney fees, I felt like I was not getting any closer to a resolution in my case. I made a very difficult decision and decided to hire a new attorney to represent me and bring my case to a close. From our initial meeting, Tina Torres quickly jumped in on my case and worked to bring my case to a close within a matter of months. Tina Torres has the experience and she has knowledge of the laws to educate her clients on how the case may be decided in the court of law. She takes the time to walk you through the process so that you know all the possible outcomes you may be faced with. The time she dedicates to each client, shows her true passion for what she does every day. Tina is well respected by her peers and by many people throughout the community. She carries herself in such a professional manner that she makes the process of dealing with such a difficult situation a little easier. Years later when I needed a modification to my original order, I did not hesitate to contact Tina Torres to once again handle my case. Tina was not only my attorney, but has now become a lifelong friend. I would not be where I am today without the help of Tina Torres, and if you are looking for someone to ensure your case is settled in a fair manner then without a doubt would I recommend Tina Torres as the attorney to represent you and ensure you are awarded a fair outcome.

I hired Tina after interviewing 10 other attorneys for a complex custody case transferred from another state. My custody case was an almost 2-year affair as a result of my difficult ex, complicated story and other factors. What I appreciated most about Tina was her awesome ability to communicate and ...respond to all of my emails efficiently (most of the time within 24 hours, if not immediately). Her paralegal was also just as responsive. I have to admit, I did not always like what she had to tell me, but she was always honest with me about the potential outcome of what I was asking for, the why's, the how's and how to handle an issue best without false promises. In the end, she was able to show to the Judge (during a final trial with testimony) effectively that I should be the parent with more parenting time and many other things that ultimately worked out in the best interest of my child (and myself). If you have to go to Trial or your issues become complex, Tina will coach you, explain the law to you and show you how you are right (or wrong) and what to expect potentially as an outcome. She will never leave you hanging, not explain something or just disappear (like some attorneys). The only negative experience I had was not with her, was with her law firm (Zinda...). When my expenses started to increase close to 20K, the firm completely refused to work with me on a payment plan and outwardly demanded a full cash payment otherwise I would not be represented by them until I could come up with a full payment. Perhaps their previous clients refused to pay, but I did not understand at all why a legally verified, mutually agreed upon payment plan was not possible for such a huge firm. This delayed my case for a bit as well because I had to save to make the payment. Tina is a great attorney who will do her best to advocate for you and your child.

When I found out my Husband no longer wanted to be in a marriage with me, I was scared, devastated and uncertain what to do. We have 2 beautiful kids together and that was my main focus. I interviewed a few Lawyers and could not find one I liked. Someone had told me about Tina so I called her and ins...tantly felt a connection. I went to her office and interviewed her and immediately knew she was the one for me! We built not only a professional relationship, but also a friendship. Tina fought for me and when I had moments of fear she talked me off that ledge every time. She will not tell you what you want to hear, she will tell you the law and how she is going to fight for you and she WILL live up to that! Do yourself a favor and call her, you won't regret it!!!! Her number will forever be in my phone as she is not only a Family Lawyer, but also a personal injury lawyer as well. Thank you Tina for being amazing!!!!!
