I can't thank Joe Newberry and his paralegals at Newberry Law enough for everything he did for me and my family. Because of Joe's knowledge of the law and familiarity with the Hays & Travis county courts, he was able to pretty much get me full custody of my daughter.
I would highly recommend Joe to anyone dealing with a divorce, especially if custody of kids are involved.
Thank you again!!
AVOID, AVOID, AVOID. If you would like a competent lawyer that has your best interest in mind, I would advise you to find someone else.
I used Joe to file for a divorce and he did not review my marriage agreement (which I sent to him upon retaining him) until the opposing counsel brought it to his attention months later. There was a date error on this certificate which VASTLY changed my liabilities - from nearly 0 to my house, business, etc.
He provided no legal advice and advised me to go along with whatever the opposing counsel suggested, even though it was not in my best interest . He would not answer a single question I asked him and would charge me $100+ for each one sentence email he would send to me that did not provide any guidance.
He was extremely discouraging and did not suggest mediation. He merely suggested I give up and pay out 50%+ even though my situation was very unique and not clear-cut (a signed, informal marriage agreement with a date discrepancy). If I continued with Joe I would have given up an extra ~$500k in my divorce. In the end I paid $4500 for him to draft a boilerplate divorce petition and forward emails from the opposing attorney with no legal advice.
