Posted by Tiffany | September 03, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Brandon Bledsoe is a lifesaver, quite literally!

During my second custody battle against a monster of an opponent, Brandon moved heaven and earth to, at long last, free my children and I from a devastating situation. I highly recommend Brandon and his exceptional staff to any person in need of an honest, affordable, caring and clever champion of fa...mily law. I only wish I had hired Brandon a decade ago, and I tell everyone who will listen about his incredibly superior performance, as well as his willingness to work with me on the fee schedule. I had multiple consultations with attorneys who charge 2-3x Brandon's fees, just as a 2 week retainer during which time they'll do no work, and their representation could not possibly have rivaled his. I'm forever in his debt. Thank you so much, Team Bledsoe! My daughters and I send our most sincere and lasting gratitude.

Outstanding Service with Excellent Results!

Brandon was always there for me and his whole office are not just incredible professionals they are caring and good people. After meeting with several attorneys, advising that my situation was going to take a couple of weeks or months to get resolved I was pretty much hopless; until I met the BEST at...torney in Austin, Brandon Bledsoe!! The first day I met with him, he made me feel soo comfortable, was really honest and gave me hope. From the initial meeting, we had a hearing and the protective order was granted to me!! He does not play when it comes to protecting your child, he takea everything very serious! Brandon and his legal assistant Aaron worked very hard to make sure I had the winning results. Brandon and Aaron have a very kind professional attitude, that's full of compassion, they were very prompt with answering all of my questions and concerns. Brandon was very positive and assured that he will stand by me not matter what. In court, seeing him in action, turning into beast mode and fighting for what's right made be feel that I had nothing to fear!! He got the judge focused on the facts, spelled out the numbers and his professionalism coupled with his passion in which won the court over. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my divorce, child custody & child visitation and child support! Yes, he did it all!! Their services exceeded my expectations! Brandon Bledsoe, an attorney who genuinely cares, compassionate, efficient, a very good listener and an incredible advocate made everything go soo smooth and pleasant. I would highly recommend Brandon and his firm to anyone needing assistance during such a difficult time. Thank you Aaron, you were there for me right along with Brandon and made me feel so special. I don't have enough words to explain how amazing the experience was with both of you next to me!! I will forever be grateful!!!

Responsive and reasonably priced

Brandon and his paralegal were always available to answer my questions and patiently lay out my options. They quoted me a lower price for a cut-and-dried situation rather than charge me the flat rate for the type of case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
