Robert Reid McInvale

I never thought I’d need to hire another attorney post-divorce, but I’ve hired several and decided it was time for me to stop wasting money on mediocre counsel and hire the BEST! I found Mr. McInvale after calling several other attorneys and knew instantly that he was my attorney. The first phon...e call was returned immediately, he asked me about my case, who opposing counsel was and looked it up. He didn’t require me to take time off work and pay a consultation fee. He explained the law, answered my questions and said, “Now you just have to decide if you want me!” I knew at that moment, I wanted and needed Mr. McInvale on my side. Though this was one matter, he defended me to the end even after opposing counsel refused to draft an Order according to the judge’s ruling. As a paralegal, I draft and review legal documents daily and when Mr. McInvale filed the answer in my case, I knew that he wasn’t just your ordinary attorney. He filed more than just a “general denial”. He took the time to draft my answer with case law. He showed up to court early and on time, even before me, and never had me wondering if he would be there. He made me feel as if I was his only client! Even during the disastrous Hurricane Harvey, he emailed to make sure my son and I fared well. Mr. McInvale is PRICELESS! Mr. McInvale advocated for me and prepared and fought like it was his own personal matter. I’ve never had an attorney do that. I’ve had attorneys talk a good game and once hired treat my case like any other case. Mr. McInvale is skilled, competent and ethical. He is passionate about the law, knows the law and zealously represents his clients. I can't thank him enough!

He’s simply the THE BEST!!! Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for what Mr. McInvale has accomplished in my Custody and Legal Battle. Mr. McInvale took on my case as substitution for my first lawyer in a post-divorce battle. On the verge of losing everything, including my children, I needed... a lawyer capable to handle a high conflict case. Someone who would not back down and handle a highly narcissistic and difficult ex- spouse. A BULLDOG! According to Mr. McInvale, my Divorce Decree was the worst he had seen in 30 years of practice. Reid is a fantastic lawyer. He is thorough, aggressive, very knowledgeable and educated. He has a broad knowledge of other cultures and was able to incorporate cultural differences into my case and use them to my advantage. Up to that point I was not aware that I was fighting for Custody in a Texas Court with almost all Republican Judges. This was a turning point for me and I completely surrendered to Mr. McInvale’s expertise and guidance to stand any chance in Court. Every step of the way Reid McInvale explained to me what to expect (most of it I didn’t like). He was able to settle my case through mediation and achieved an outcome, better than I could have ever dreamed off. Given the little we had to work with, his expertise and negotiation skills, combined with a brilliant Judge at mediation, produced excellent results. Reid prepared me very well for Court. He made sure I know my facts, was able to “Answer the question!” (You will be introduced to a very lovely drawing in his office) and gives fabulous fashion advice. In all seriousness, Mr. McInvale approved my Court outfit and got me to raise my hemline. In all honestly that’s the point where I thought this man is crazy. He is. Crazy good! Mr. McInvale has a very complex approach to his work and incorporates many different elements. Once combined into a magnificent Orchestra, the Court Room is his Carnegie Hall. He empowered me to stand up for myself and changed the future and wellbeing of myself and therefor my children. His advice on how to handle future conflicts, build a case, gather evidence and quietly and consistently develop a strategy is invaluable. His common sense advice regarding post-Divorce problems, especially with the children is invaluable. Reid is an expensive lawyer. Don’t let that stop you from hiring him. He gets you a rock solid Divorce Decree! Not being represented by a lawyer in my Divorce has cost me twice as much as Mr. Mcinvale costs. Learn from my mistakes and hire Mr. McInvale. For the first time in three years I feel I have a future. This has a profound effect on my wellbeing and the wellbeing of my children, who are starting to blossom. Reid fought with intensity and fierceness as if these children were his own. He is called the bulldog for a reason. Don’t be intimidated by his large and loud personality. Surrender! As much as I hate to admit it but Reid was right in everything he suggested. He has his clients best interest at heart at all times. He is God sent and simply the BEST!!! P.S. I would like to mention Lawrence, Mr. McInvale's Paralegal. He is the quiet force in the back, equally brilliant and efficient as Mr. McInvale. He easily gets overlooked because of his quiet demeanor. He has been very helpful to my case and I would like to thank him for his efforts. Together they are the DREAM TEAM as they compliment each other so well.

We live in Michigan and needed an attorney for our daughters divorce and custody case. We hired Mr. McInvale because of his thirty years of experience. It was the best thing we ever did for our daughter. He is extremely knowledgable and a seasoned litigator in court. Our daughter was awarded every...thing she wanted and felt confident in court with him by her side even though we could not be there. He prepared her well for the court experience and consistently gave us good legal and common sense advice. He is well worth the money and we are not wealthy. Some people invest in a good car so we decided to invest in our daughters future and get her a really good attorney. We are forever grateful for his expertise and support for our daughter during a very stressful time in her life.
