When you need the best

When you want the best. I hired Eric to help me with my divorce case. He was prompt, professional and always had my best interest in mind. He knew what he was doing in the courtroom and would always call me back. We need up settling in mediation with his guidance. I can't thank him enough.

Custody lawyer

A good lawyer. A good person. Sometimes anxiety gets the best of you when you go through a custody battle. My wife tried to limit my time with my kids to 1 day a week supervised. In steps Eric Willie. He didn’t take no for an answer from the other side and convinced me that going to court would be th...e best way to go. The judge agreed with Mr. Willie. I not only got visitation with my kids. I ended up with 50-50 custody. Thanks your sir.

Child custody

I hired Mr. Eric Willie to be my attorney in my custody case. The first time I spoke to Eric, a lot of stress and doubt was relieved. I struggled for 15 years to see my son regularly because he was always held back from spending time with me. After all the tears and heartaches trying to have a rel...ationship with my son, Eric fought for my family and I was awarded full custody. I will never forget that day in court. Eric was cool and calm in the court room that led to victory. His knowledge in family law is very strong and he is worth every penny. I would recommend Eric to anyone who is struggling with custody issues who feel that there is no hope. Thank you God for putting him in my path. Eric, my family and I will always be grateful. God bless you.

Child Modification

We had a court case that was transferred from Lubbock to Hays County. We spent several sleepless nights stressing because we had no idea who could represent us in that area. After praying about it, we found Mr. Willie. Right away he eased our minds about the situation and made us feel confident tha...t we would succeed. Due to living about six hours away, we met Mr. Willie the first time the day of our hearing. Immediately there was a connection. It felt like we had known him for years. This was important because all communication was per phone due to the distance between us. It was. amazing to see him in action. We won that day. We won the opportunity to continue to be a good parent and step mother, the opportunity to love our child, the opportunity to have the right to see our child, and the opportunity to have peace in our lives again. Thanks Eric!!!!! You made a tough situation easier to tolerate. You restored our faith in the justice system. Fathers are so overlooked in the judicial system and you made sure that I shined.

Knows how to get a case done

Eric was my second attorney. My first attorney was not doing his job and my case had stalled. In comes Eric Willie. He told me his plan to get the case up and running again. He told me we could go to a judge and have the judge set deadlines. He did just what he said. Despite protests from my husband,... who did not want to get divorced, the judge agreed with Mr. Willie and set the proposed deadlines. Two months later this case that had been going on for nearly two years, was over. My husband was forced to settle. The outcome was great. Even better than what I expected. Thanks to Eric Willie and his staff.
