Hired Law Firm

I had an excellent experience working with Kelly and her paralegal, Amy. Given the stressful circumstances of going through divorce, Kelly helped and supported in all the ways needed to make the process easier and more gentle for me. Kelly listened to me, valued my opinions and desires, and guided me to come to conclusions that were in line with my family's needs and the maintaining integrity with myself and ex.

Hayley Collins made manageable and endurable what was a protracted and unduly contentious divorce. Her command of Texas family law and procedure, her ability to negotiate with opposing counsel, and her manifold helpful advice to me provided the sturdy foundation upon which my final divorce decree was built. She was professional and personable, an attorney whose legal counsel included the required but which also extended to matters that improved my overall health and well-being. So here's where people usually indicate that they would love to again work with such a consummate professional. I echo that sentiment with the caveat that I'd rather the matter on which I would be fortunate to again work with Hayley on be a family law matter much less stressful than a contentious divorce. Thank you, Hayley and GoransonBain!!

Hired Attorney Ms. Angel J. Berbarie

Angel Berbarie was very thorough with my case and at the same time very empathetic about the difficulties I was going through with my life at the time. I would highly recommend her if you want a very efficient, knowledgeable, and compassionate attorney

Esther Donald and her paralegal Wanese Rather provided professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and conscientious service during my divorce proceedings. Esther was very conscientious about conservation of my financial resources while ensuring my interests received fair consideration. Response times were almost immediate and communication was always compassionate and thorough. I can not recommend Esther strongly enough!

, a Real Estate client (5 star review) I would like to thank Rob Frazer and the people at GBA. He was extremely polite and very professional. He took the time to explain the process and what to expect. He made it understandable, responded on every email and text that I had questions I got answers. Having someone treat you like a person (not just a client) and alleviating your stress/worry is what Rob accomplished. Thank you once again Rob! I would highly recommend Rob and his firm.

I only dealt with Eric Robertson and his paralegal Renee, but they were outstanding, knowledgeable and fair. I obtained a quick, just outcome after a bulk of unnecessary legal fees were billed by my previous attorneys. Eric Robertson is a great lawyer. I am glad he had time and agreed to represent me and the interests of my family.

Lene Alley DeRudder is not only the best Texas Family Law attorney, but she also is a wonderful human being. Her law practice reflects her good heart and high moral character. She is on top of her game when it comes to knowing our Texas Family Laws. In addition to that, Lene is one of the hardest workers I have ever personally known. She worked tirelessly to protect the rights of my children and myself. She is genuine and defended my family as her own.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
