THE best there is!

It's been years since I used her, but when I did I couldn't have been more please with her ambition! She was ruthless when she needed to be and got the job done! She has no fear! Couldn't have been more satisfied!

Wonderful help for our horrible situation

My fiance and I were each going through custody battles when we first meet. I had hired an attorney in the longview area a year before I ended up hiring Alex because I was so impressed with how she had closed my significant others case. Even with her attorney filing improper paperwork. Even with a su...dden unfortunate death in her family, she stayed professional. She just keep pushing back to get things how they were supposed to be. My case was at a stand still for over 2 years. We now are flying through things and getting them settles. Her staff is amazing and so helpful also. I can tell you with 100% certainty they will do everything in there power to help. Simply an amazing firm!!!!

Took my Money & Didn't do nothing for me! Please Run Away from Styve!

I hired Styve in 2011, when I went in for my first consultation she made me feel comfortable and someone I could trust with my money. I was in the middle of a really bad divorce and custody battle and needed someone that would reprent me and have my back. Well that was not the case at all, she didn't... do anytyhing for my case except for taking my money (close to $6,000) She always forgot important details and next time I reminded her she acted surprised and pretended I never told her anything. She was very forgetful, was never prepared, didn't listen to me, was always unavailable when I tried calling her and took for ever to reply to my e-mail messages. Please run away and save your money, she will do absolutely nothing for you!! They were very good at reminding me how much more money was due. To be honest I'm not exaclty sure why she was always so behind and never prepared, not sure if she took on too many clients. Basically all she did for me was refer me to Family Court & kept my money, then I I also had to pay them more money. I ended up settling with my ex-husband and he kept all the money from our investment accounts,I kept all the debts but he agreed I should have full custody of kids!!

Alex Styve is a wonderful attorney and I am so thankful for all she has done for us!

I hired Alex Styve 18 years ago during a custody case. I was the step mother of the child and Alex fought my step daughter's biological mother and father to gain me full custody, which was in the best interest of the child, and Alex won this case! She was not only an awesome attorney, she cared abo...ut my step daughters well being! I recently referred my spouse to her for his custody battle, and she is as good now as she was 18 years ago, other than having 18 more years of professionalism and experience under her belt. She even has some of the same staff today as she did back then. That alone speaks volumes in my book. My husband has had a great experience using Alex. She returns his calls in a timely manner and keeps him up to date regarding any and all issues. He sleeps soundly at night feeling complete trust in her ability to make sure his rights as a father are not taken away. She not only is a great advocate but has a great court room presence. I would never wish the horror of a custody battle on anyone, but if you are ever in this situation, I would 100% recommend Alex Styve to represent you.

Nightmare Attorney

Despite her many years of practicing law, Ms. Styve is very unknowledgeable and incompetent. She was rude and talked down to me every time I spoke with her. She botched my case even though it was easy. I'm confident that a rookie attorney could have handled the situation better than her. She went int...o hearings completely unprepared. She misrepresented me in court and then denied doing it even though there were witnesses to it. She overcharged me and charged me for services that she never performed. She didn't listen to anything I ever tried to tell her and didn't keep me informed of the status of my case. Do yourself a favor and don't hire Ms. Styve. It will be a nightmare of an experience. I currently have to hire a new attorney and start all over again because of the poor job that Ms. Styve did as my attorney. Ms. Styve was the one person that was supposed to be on my side. I was paying her to be on my side and she treated me terribly!
