The Best Ever!

Where do I begin? This has been a long and stressful journey. But every step of the way Kate and her team guided me, helped me understand, kept me in the loop on things, made sure I had everything prepared and ready. They really care and truly show compassion when it comes to their clients. She sta...yed confident throughout this 2 year long custody battle. When it was all said and done she got the job done. Even when I doubted myself and got frustrated Kate and her team always reassured me that everything would work out. The knowledge and confidence that she has is like no other that I have seen. Best lawyer that I have come across and if you are looking for someone that will have your back and fight tooth and nail for you, this is the person you want. Amazing Team I can’t say it enough. Just google Best lawyer in Texas and her name should pop up at the top spot!

Best I've Had!

I have been dealing with a VERY complex definitely not your average child custody case that has been going on almost 4 years now it's always getting pushed back or at a stand stilI have retained attorney after attorney. Some didn't really seem to care about my case, some were afraid of the opposing c...ounsels attorney, didn't want to take my case because of the complexity of it, or some were just simply not educated. When I started looking for a new attorney at the beginning of the year, I came across Kate Soulsby's firm. From the moment I called her and explained my case she sounded VERY confident, and made me feel like it was the right decision to go with her. She has always been available, communicates very effectively and quickly. Everyone who works with her are very attentive and hard workers just like her. Kimberly Hall, June Maldonado, and Stephanie, are all respectful and kind. Kate was the first attorney that I've had that was not intimidated but the opposing parties attorney as my previous attorneys were. I have trial next month, and I am anxious and nervous but feel VERY confident with having Kate and her team represent me. If you're looking for an attorney who wants to sincerely fight for you and your situation, and KNOWS their stuff, I'd highly recommend Soulsby Law!!!

The Best Lawyer Ever

Kate Soulsby is the best child custody lawyer in San Antonio hands down. I am a single Dad of two beautiful children. I wasted thousands of dollars prior to hiring Kate that did not have the passion and knowledge to handle my case. Her staff is also very understanding and knowledgeable. They have alw...ays kept me in the loop with constant communication never being left in the dark. It's not just another paycheck with Kate. She has become an extended part of my family. If you want someone to fight for you she will be by your side all the way through the end and even after that. Her court room experience is impeccable! She is not just another lawyer that is trying to take your money, she actually cares. I am so thankful that she has been in my family's life.

Amazing Attorney

Kate is a bulldog of an attorney. So much so, that in my case a judge had to read the Miranda rights to one of the opposing counsel's witnesses while Kate was cross examining her. If you want someone to fight for you, give you candid and honest advice, and knows her stuff...Kate is all you need. I'v...e been dealing with a custody issue for the last 2 years with incredible odds mounted against me and Kate never skipped a beat. Nothing can phase this incredibly passionate woman. She won the case for me and got me more than I could ever hope for. In family court, its hard as a Dad to get equal rights and treatment. Kate saw and made sure that I got all of those and then some. God Bless you Kate, and thanks for helping me save my boys lives.
