Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Our family hired Holly Draper at The Draper Law Firm for a complicated child conservatorship case. She's board certified in family law, very knowledgeable, and was compassionate throughout our legal journey. She's well regarded in the court system, both locally and at the Texas Supreme Court level. She was nothing short of remarkable in how she was able to successfully conclude our case in less time than we were expecting. She and her team were a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend them for any family law matter.
How many family law attorneys can say they argued at the Texas Supreme Court and won? Holly Draper can say that and she took down a fancy high priced firm from the city. Holly was my attorney for about 3 years. We both wish it was a shorter term. However, Holly and her team fought for me successfully all the way to the Texas Supreme Court. In these 3 years she was a voice of reason, clarity, and set proper expectations of the road ahead. At no point did she ever over promise and under deliver. With Holly you get a seasoned attorney and someone who has been there done that. She’s honest about your options and isn’t going to sugar coat anything. When we appeared in court, Holly was very well prepared, organized, laser focused, and knew the details of the case extremely well; she didn’t hold back in court. Holly is also an amazing writer. Holly and her team are also different from other attorneys. They care, they fight the good fight, and they don’t have huge egos. Call Holly!
Fathers Beware: More Focused on Fees Than Advocacy. Custody cases are a marathon, not a sprint — something to keep in mind when large retainers are requested and billing transparency becomes questionable. My experience with The Draper Law Firm was extremely disappointing. Communication and follow-through were inconsistent, and I encountered what I would describe as a reckless disregard for fair billing practices. When I raised concerns and requested to move my case to another attorney within the firm, my request was denied — and shortly after, the firm withdrew representation after draining nearly double the original retainer. I would highly recommend seeking other representation, especially for fathers navigating custody disputes. In my opinion, this firm operates more for personal enrichment than as an advocate for your parental rights.
