Amber was excellent! She is not only professional, but compassionate. She listened to our needs and concerns, and offered honest advice on how we should proceed. My husband is adopting our children, and she has made this process as stress free as possible. She coordinated our court hearings to fit us... as well, since we are currently out of the state of Texas. She is an attorney who will fight for you, and nothing less. Thank you so so much Amber!

Child custody

My husband and I came in for a consultation on a Friday . Neither of us knowing the laws or how things go on this matter she sounded great! Almost too good to be true. She told us exactly what she would do as soon as we dropped the retainer. Monday we dropped off the retainer fee. Fast forward to ...Thursday, haven't heard anything yet. We knew it was a strong possibility the person we were seeking help with would be a problem that Friday. Wanted to make sure the restraining order was in place like she said it would be. No call back Thursday. Friday morning we called a few times then finally get a call back. All she had done was pick up some files from the attorney general. That's it! No restraining order and of course the person we were concerned with was there Friday. Oh and showed up to our home saturday. Great fun. Amber also said she was waiting on info that she needed from us...the same info she said she would handle at the initial consultation. We have a very time sensitive matter which she was well aware of. We visited another, reputable lawyer. 90 percent of every thing she told us would happen, can't! BY LAW! I don't know if she wasn't up to date, doesn't handle many of these cases or was just blowing hot smoke. Either way, if you are fighting to get custody of a child she is not the way to go. Maybe she is great with divorces where all parties agree but that's not what we were there for. I'm glad we found out early instead of wasting any more time. She did give us our retainer back in a timely manner, which I am great full for.

Anyone who has ever worked with me knows that I am completely forthcoming. It benefits neither me nor my clients to do otherwise. However, I have to be provided with the tools to properly do my job. At the initial consultation, I requested a number of items, only some of which I received. I did state that I would obtain a copy of the prior order, which I did. I was also not made aware of any potential problems that very Friday - that information was never shared. I apologize that I am not always in the office to immediately speak with my clients when they call; sometimes, I have to be in court with my other clients. However, when I made it back to the office on Friday, I took your husband's call. You called Thursday, I spoke with your husband Friday. At the end of the day, it's just as important for my clients to be as forthcoming with me as I am with them. Best of luck to you.

Great, efficient lawyer with reasonable fees

I hired Amber when my divorce, which was supposed to be uncontested, became more complicated. Amber was knowledgeable, and honest about the reality of my situation. She saw through the games my ex's attorney was playing and put a stop to them. She was tenacious. I got exactly what I wanted, and c...ouldn't be happier. I love her itemized bills, I know exactly what I am getting for my money. There was no bill padding or outrageous fees. I am actually getting some of my retainer back! I couldn't recommend her more highly for someone going through divorce in Travis County.
