Review Joseph Malone Newberry

Grandparent Guardianship Success

5.0 stars

Posted by DeAnn
June 9, 2022

I highly recommend Joe and his team to you. This is my story. I have guardianship of my granddaughter for the last 6 years. This last year the mother made an attent to kidnap my granddaughter at her camp. I was out of town and Joe was on vacation. I got a call from the camp that the mother wanted to take my granddaughter out of camp to see a dying relative. The mother in the court order had no visition rights to her child. I called Joe and within 15 minutes he was talking to the police at the camp and the officer told the mother she had to leave because of the court orders we had. I could have lost my granddaughter forever if it wasn’t for Joe being on watch for his clients even on his vacation. I will never forget that horrifying day when I got the call from the camp, Joe began work on terminating the mothers rights and we won in court. Joe is amazing human being. We will forever keep him in our prayers.

Hire Joe and win your case

I cannot say more positive experience with Joe and his staff. If you want to win your case, hire Joe. I can say I had the toughest case in child custody. Joe accepted the challenge and accomplished our goals. I had a jury trial for my final divorce hearing (rare in civil matters) in additional to numerous temporary hearings with another lawyer. I won with primary custody but a geographical restriction. Not knowing too much about the system, I left the geographic restriction for my job for less than six months. I thought I could easily reverse custody after I moved back. After all it was for the benefits of the children. It turned out to be a difficult and prolonged process. It was also amidst COVID with all the changes. Joe and his staff are highly organized, knowledgeable, professional and flexible in their law practice. The court reversed custody and granted all for the best interests of my children. With his own life experience, Joe knows what a family needs and what are considered the best interests of the children. Joe and his staff are kind people fighting to reveal the truth no matter how the opponent behaved. For this, we are forever grateful!

I procured Joe as my divorce attorney through a referral ( another well known attorney ), and I can't express enough how grateful I am. He's truly genuine, very talented and actually committed/focused on his individual clients. He is professionally and respectfully well known in the Austin area and his reputation somewhat intimidated my ex wife’s attorney. I very seldom leave reviews, but I know how hard it is to find an attorney you can count on. He went above what you might expect. I didn’t feel I had to rush when speaking to him and he made me feel more comfortable and hopeful. He took his time explaining everything to me in detail. He fought for me and guided me every step of the way; always available day and night. I would highly recommend him and his team to anyone who is looking for help on a divorce.

Best Family Attorney in Austin

5.0 stars

Joe Newberry always put my kids first. My situation that might have otherwise ended in a lengthy and ugly hearing was quickly diffused out of court because he’s highly skilled and he and his family have been doing this for a very long time. He let me make decisions and made it clear that he was there to represent what I wanted and was there to educate and guide me along the way; that was important to me. He’s very empathetic and has such a humanizing approach. Divorce is ugly, but Joe Newberry is the best family attorney in Austin.

I’m certain that Joe and his team see cases like ours all the time. However, when your biggest love is being a father and a divorce threatens the possibility of not having your children 50/50. A fear of uneasy sets in and you can’t get that out of your mind. Joe study’ed my the case. He asked real questions and he needed full transparency. We gave him everything he asked for. After meeting with Joe, He told me that this will be a process and he had our family’s best interest Mind. After a year of back and forth and having to provide everything under the sun. We prevailed and set forth on a life of happiness. I have my children 50/50 and support was not granted. I can’t express the amount of gratitude and respect I have for Joe and his team! He was truly a man of his word and I could never repay him for the happiness he’s given our family. Thank you Joe for making my dreams come true!

I should have hired Joe Newberry 3 years ago, instead of trying to represent myself. I dug myself a hole by trying to handle a child support/custody case myself and Joe was able to get me exactly what I wanted with in 2 weeks. Highly recommend him and his practice.

Mr. Newberry handled both my divorce and child custody cases. He was professional, thorough and truly empathetic throughout the entire process. He went above and beyond giving me support/advice as we moved through the complex legal steps. He was always prompt and responsive to all my concerns and questions. Without Mr. Newberry’s legal expertise, I don’t think I would have made it through both my divorce and child custody cases so successfully. I will forever be grateful to him.

For four years, I dealt with my child custody and support case with another Attorney, and it was draining. I was referred to Joe and his team by a close friend. Joe got the case closed within 60 days. Joe was the support I needed during a tough and emotional time. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer who gets things done with professionalism, honesty, and excellent follow-through.
