Not just a lawyer, a partner

Deke is easily the most personable business attorney in Austin. He strikes a perfect balance of being both professional and knowledgeable while also being extremely amiable and inviting. He has demystified the legal process of starting a business for me, while respecting my intelligence throughout. E...very time we meet, I come away feeling like he legitimately has my best interests and the best interests of my business in mind.

Just what I needed!

Deke Foxhaven did a great job preparing a contract for my new business area. He listened attentively to what I needed and then completed my contract at the promised time. Deke was great to work with and I’ll use him for my future legal needs.

Deke saved my sons life !!!!

I typically don’t do online reviews. However, I could not pass up an opportunity to tell everyone how great Deke Foxhoven (DEKE FOXHOVEN LAW FIRM) has been while handling my case. I had been fighting for 15 years to find someone to help me. I have a son with special needs, and a father who gave ...him no support. Being turn down from numerous support groups for help with my son’s medical needs, it was about time I hired an attorney to make my ex-husband keep up with his responsibility. I walked into Deke’s office being afraid of another let down and losing faith in hiring another attorney, after numerous failed attempts by other attorneys in the Austin area. To be honest I had doubts in him too. I thought to myself, another attorney, another promise, another let down. Well guess what? I was defiantly wrong about Deke. The day I meet Deke, I was thinking to myself - I’m wasting my time again. I explained to him everything that happened in the 15 years I tried to take care of my son. All the previous attorneys took my money and did nothing to protect my son. The support system did not help. My ex-husband was not keeping up with his responsibility. I actually felted like Deke was not brushing me off or not listening to my concerns. There was never a time I felt pressured into anything, or felt he was not communicating with me. Deke explained everything to me. He was very clear about what to expect, and made no promises. Deke answered all the questions I had on this very complex case. He gave me hope that I had finally found someone who would fight for my son. After everything I told him, Deke started my case. I received a call from Deke that following Friday to tell me he had already set up everything. He took time to explain to me step by step how it was going to be handled. This was more than what the others attorneys ever did. I appreciated his direct approach in telling me exactly what I needed to have. I respect his honesty, which is hard to find in this day and time. Deke kept me well informed, updating me on every issue. Every time I received a call from his office, it was always him and not a third party. My situation changed several times during my case, due to my son’s disability and the instability of my ex-husband. We hit some extremely difficult situations and he helped me turn my case into something I never imaging it could be. There were a lot of emotional times but Deke always gave me the support I needed and he encouraged me to stay focused on what really mattered. Deke was able to negotiate with my ex’s attorney which helped lower my cost by staying out of the court room. He worked with me regarding payments and fully understood my situation due to my having to financially support my son alone. Deke always made me feel like my issues were a priority, and that my son’s needs came first, which every other attorney I had hired failed to do. Today I am a very happy Mom! I feel justice has been served! If I could describe Deke Foxhoven in a smaller review, he is an excellent attorney, very reliable, honest, courteous, affordable, respectful and down to earth. I can not express enough gratitude or appreciation for all this man has done for my family. He was not just my attorney; he turned out to be a friend. I highly recommend Deke Foxhoven.

Agreed Divorce Case in Williamson County

Deke made my divorce process very simple for me. We had a consulting meeting prior to him actually taking the case where he clearly explained everything to me. He is very personable, professional and was quickly responsive to all my questions and concerns. He is very knowledgeable and truly cares abo...ut his clients. Even though Deke was my attorney for my divorce, he also communicated and worked with my ex-wife making the process much simpler and easier for her also. I highly recommend Deke.

The Best Attorney In Austin, Texas

I filed for divorce on Oct. 29, 2011. My divorce was final Feb. 3, 2012. Family & friends have told me this is the fastest they ever saw a divorce happen. I told them it's due to having the best Attorney in Austin, Tx., Mr. Deke R. Foxhoven represent me. Deke not only treated me like a client, but a...lso as a friend. He explained everything from start to finish & allowed me to ask questions on things I didn't understand. He made sure I got everything I was entitled to, plus a little extra. I got the beautiful 2009 manufactured home & everything in it that we bought last May, plus my 2008 Dodge Caliber. He also made sure I kept all of my retirement with the state & my ex won't get any of it & my ex also has to pay $2500 to me for my attorney's fees which to me that was a definite perk...When we went to the courthouse and got my divorce finalized, I felt more like a friend first and a client second, because that's the way he treated me while he was representing me in court & in front of the judge who signed off on my divorce...There are many more things he did but just too many to list.. If you are looking for a dependabe, reliable, honest, friendly, caring attorney to help you with all your needs, look no further than Deke R. Foxhoven!!! He was recommended to me by an attorney friend of mine, Iona McAvoy in Houston & she had an attorney friend who went to law school with Deke & recommeneded him very highly..I'm proud to be a client of Deke R. Foxhoven & look forward to having him handle anything in the future for me that will requre his help...There is no attorney in Austin better than Deke R. Fohoven I guarantee it!!!!!
