Best family lawyer in Becar and Guadalupe counties

Ms. Goodbread handled everything for me. There was not one question I asked that she wasn't already working on. She has been doing this long enough she knows what's going to happen before it does, I think. She talked to me in honest and real terms... no sugar coating anything. She made sure I got eve...rything I deserved and then some. I would recommend her to anyone. But, I will tell you, she likes an honest person who is upfront with her. If you can be honest and open and handle what comes with that, Ms. Goodbread is the lawyer for you!

Excellent attorney who cares

My husband moved our children and I to Texas 5 years ago after accepting a position with his company. The children and I came down six weeks after him due to waiting for the school marking period to end so that they could start at their new schools at the beginning of the new six week marking per...iod. It was a very difficult transition for my children and myself as I left behind my recently widowed mother of 81 years old, but I was trying to support my husband in his new position and felt the move may be for the best for our family. I discovered after living here for 3 years that he had been involved in an affair with his co-worker that started before the children and I even moved here. I was devastated and with the advice of family and friends I decided to hire Stacy to file for divorce based on his infidelity. The divorce was filed in December of 2014. My husband pleaded with me to try to reconcile and work things out. In January of 2015 I decided to try to reconcile as I am not an advocate for dicorce and come from a traditional Catholic family. However after a few months of trying to reconcile I realized that he was still seeing the same woman. Unfortunately, prior to discovering this, I dismissed the case, against Stacy's advice. I felt it was the best way to prove my diligence to my husband in trying to reconcile. Stacy advised me to just leave the case on hold until we were sure everything was working out but I insisted on dismissing it. That was March of 2015. Immediately I noticed the difference in my husband's enthusiasm in trying to work things out and realized I had made a huge mistake. I called Stacy and explained I had screwed up and wanted to proceed with the divorce. Stacy is a compassinate person. She said she would do her best to go forward to help me. Long story short, even with a divorce no longer pending, and witbout having to refile, we were able to go before the judge and convince him to sign the petition to lift the dismissal and proceed with the divorce. Due to the amount of time that had passed, the moment he signed the paperwork the divorce became official since we were way past the waiting period. That was March of 2016, a year after I had dismissed it . Stacy never charged me another dime after the original agreed fee almost two years prior and helped me out of the nightmare I had been living. Stacey is an excellent attorney who cares about her clients and does not treat them all the same but carefully assesses each case upon the situation the client is in. I cannot say enough about her. She is professional yet compassionate and truly cares about her clients. You cannot find a better attorney. She will go to bat for you 100% and then some. If you are looking for representation of an attorney in the New Braunfels/San Antonio area, look no further than Stacy Goodbread, she is absolutely the best out there.

This is the absolute best lawyer to have on your side!

Going through a tricky divorce, other lawyers that I consulted with told me that I was in a really bad spot and justice was not going to be able to be served in this divorce. Stacy took the time to dig deep into the facts and worked MIRACLES! She was supportive and personable and I never for a seco...nd regretting hiring her on the spot. She is the best bang for your buck and is an absolute bulldog in the court room! She is level headed and knows this process like the back of her hand. She cares about the outcome and her staff is also very attentive and patient. There were a bunch of bumps in the road that Stacy and her team smoothed out and I could not be happier!! For such a stressful and high-emotional experience Stacy really put things into perspective and calmed my worries. I would without a doubt, hire her again if I had to relive this process over again!

Happy family ending!

I'm not sure there are enough words to describe our gratitude towards Stacy. I am a step parent to 2 amazing children. A few years after she handled my husbands divorce - We had an emergency situation in which we needed to file for immediate custody of the kids. The other half of the situation was... a very dangerous and unstable one. Without hesitation, Stacy immediately went to trial for us to obtain these emergency orders. I don't think we even expected it to happen as fast as it did. Knowing these 2 kids were in a safe environment 24/7 with us was a very comforting feeling. In the year following that, we went through all of the motions to obtain full custody. What could have been a very stressful year for us, was made much easier because of Stacy. Her quick responses, knowledge, and advice were very helpful in getting us through that year. She is exactly what you should be looking for in a lawyer. Responsive, aggressive, and fights for you. 2 years later, we have 2 very happy children. They are in a stable home with 2 very loving and responsible parents. What she has done for our family is priceless. The fact that these kids can now truly be themselves and can feel safe every day is something that I will forever be grateful to Stacy for. I highly recommend Stacy Goodbread and we will continue to utilize her expertise and knowledge with future concerns. I believe she truly does put you first and has a genuine passion for what she does.

Incredible asset and wonderful person and team

Stacy Goodbread and her team were a breath of fresh air and truly gave me renewed hope in our legal system. I had become so stressed out through feeling taken advantage of in the past that I had lost faith. Her and her team answered any question I had and remained helpful through all proceedings and ...follow ups. I simply cannot overemphasize how implemental they were in helping me through my case. I highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance or advice.
