Great Family Law Attorney

I had received Steve Lopez's name from a relative that used him for a family law case. She had nothing but great things to say about his practice. Steve helped me on a custody case. He was very knowledgeable of family law. He would listen to my concerns, explain the law to me, and give me my options.... There were times my emotions would run high due to the sensitive dealing with custody of my son, He always lent an ear to listen. He was always prompt and personal in returning my phone calls and emails. He never once gave me some outrages charges. His fee for service was fair and affordable. He never once was demanding about money, He always acted with my son's best interest. I cannot say enough good things about him. He is intelligent, respectful, fair yet firm. You cannot go wrong with Steve as your attorney.

Highly Recommend

I already had a lawyer but when I needed to file for divorce, I had to find another one because mine does not handle divorces. A friend referred me to attorney Steve Lopez, so I gave him a call and received a very helpful, understanding, and honest response from him. I was also dreading how immensely... expensive divorces can be, but Steve kept his fees low and did great work. He also always took my calls, and if not, he was very quick to call me back. He knows his stuff and fought for me. Although the divorce was awful, his help made it much more manageable and I always felt that I had someone to stand up for me. Embarrassed to say I cried a few times during meetings, but he was always sympathetic and understanding. I decided to drop my other lawyer and exclusively only use him.

Attorney to Trust

I was in a car accident about a year and half ago and I had never been to an attorney before. I spoke to some attorneys that had been recommended to me by friends and family, but was not quite satisfied with any of them regarding their price and approach to my issues. I continued blindly calling arou...nd and finally reached Mr. Steve Lopez. He offered a very reasonable price and sounded genuinely concerned for me and making sure I would be able to get what I was entitled to. During office visits, he explained everything clearly and made me feel as though I was a priority. Other lawyers talked down to me, were very rushed, and wanted to charge very high amounts. Mr. Lopez takes his time and is very knowledgeable and honest. He got me a settlement more than what I expected and now I have a lawyer I trust and that I will stick with. I recommend him to everyone.

Disappointing Experience - Do not Recommend

I do not recommend Steve Lopez, in fact, I wish I would have done more research before hiring him altogether. Steve and his office are extremely disorganized, difficult to get a hold of, unprofessional, and a waste of time. Anyone using a lawyer knows time is money. Steve and his office have behaved ...so unprofessionally and unethically, that I will be moving forward with a formal Texas Board complaint on his behavior. Steve took on my case in April of 2023 and I have yet to go to court. Against my wishes and better judgment, Steve has continued to allow extension on my case on multiple occasions. To say I am disappointed is an understatement. He has showed no genuine interest in getting myself or my case into court in a timely manner - all the while continuing to send billings. There is much miscommunication with himself and his staff. Calls and voicemails will go unanswered, but you will be charged. Nothing is filed in timely or correctly communicated. From the beginning of my case I have been an unsatisfied client. I have been under the impression that Steve and his office like to drag cases out on purpose in order to continue sending bills for filings and time spent on the case. It has been over 6 months on an order of protection. Not only has Steve lacked professionalism, but his inability to move in a timely manner has put my safety in jeopardy. Please do your research if you have a difficult court case. I am out time, money, and resources due to his legal guidance.
