Best Lawyer

I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding legal support provided by Susannah Stinson. Throughout my case, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and dedication. Susannah not only guided me through the complexities of the legal process but also ensured that my concerns were addres...sed promptly and effectively. Her attention to detail and strategic approach resulted in a successful outcome that exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Susannah to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank you once again for your assistance!

A Winner In Your Corner

There are attorneys who simply collect a paycheck and then there are attorneys who are determined to win. Susannah and Becky are a team to be reckoned with as they provide an attentive, honest and dedicated approach to the cases they handle. Both kept me calm, informed and encouraged me to take the... high road when at times it was extremely difficult. In the end, their brilliance, tactical foresight and professionalism allowed me to come to an agreement with my spouse through mediation when I was convinced that the outcome would be entirely different. I would recommend no other as they exceeded my expectations.

Honest, Compassionate, and Reliable

If I had to describe Susannah in three words, I would say that she is honest, compassionate, and extremely reliable. Susannah follows through on every single promise that she makes and she clearly works harder for her clients than most attorneys in her same practice area. Susannah is generous with ...her time and has a wonderful rapport with people of all ages, demographics and backgrounds. Her ability to connect and empathize with her clients is what truly sets her apart. Both the Austin legal and non legal communities are small, and Susannah does a fantastic job of always remaining professional in her demeanor no matter what circumstances arise. Susannah is well-respected and her maturity in dealing with opposing counsel, judges, clerks, etc., is very evident; as a result, it is easy for her to command respect. I appreciated that Susannah set clear expectations for me as her client and for herself as my attorney. There were never any surprises whatsoever with Susannah. My expectations were exceeded and Susannah will continue to have my trust and my referral.

Susannah Stinson - Setting the Bar for Texas

Ms. Stinson excels as a preeminent attorney in the State of Texas. Her innate mastery of the courtroom, coupled with an exactness understanding the technicalities of law, has earned Susannah the respect of clients as well as peer lawyers and judges. Never does she overlook the human perspective or ...emotional cost to families in her treatment of the true-to-life drama commonly governing divorce and child conservancy proceedings. Without exception, Ms. Stinson's ethical high ground cannot be breached. I'd recommend no other.

Susannah Stinson

I hired Susannah Stinson a handful of years ago. She has represented me numerous times due to issues with my ex-husband. She has always been very professional, thorough, helpful, honest and available. I have recommended her to others in the past and would gladly do so in the future.

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.

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.
