He wasn't just blindly supportive of you, he made sure to communicate to you what was possible and what was not. He set expectations and communicated progress throughout the resolution of the problem, and in the end he was able to have them nix the crazy amount of money they were saying we were responsible for paying for damages. :: friendly guy, very easy to talk to, doesn't come across as your typical chodery lawyer :: small law firm means you get undivided, personal attention The Bad: :: None. The Ugly: :: None. Would I use this law firm's services again? Definitely. This law firm is IN.

They took a few minutes to explain my options and realistic outcomes. If we end up needing to move forward with representation we'll return to these guys. It wasn't a 'oh sorry can't make money off you, gotta go' go conversation, and while I took less than 10 minutes of their time I appreciated that. If you're reading this, might need a lawyer for personal injury and give them a call.

This is a family business, run by Attorney Caitlin Haney Johnston, and her sister Amber, with the rest of the team. I learned after residing in Texas for the last five years, that my will and trust from California were invalid in Texas. That was an unpleasant awareness, as it took quite a bit of time to prepare those documents. My job offered "MetLife-Prepaid Legal" as an annual benefit. MetLife even offered an affordable family plan. So we made the call, discussed our needs and shortly thereafter, we were reviewing the draft documents and signing our finals. We needed a Spanish translation for one of our family members. No problem, as their Paralegal Celeste speaks Spanish fluently. The office visit was amazing. They were so patient and understanding with all our questions. Not once did I feel rushed. It was like talking to a family member that knew the law. Over all it was a great experience, and a weight off my shoulders. I can't praise them enough how they helped me breathe easier knowing that this matter was done. Thank you Caitlin, Amber and Celeste for your professional help with this matter. We truly appreciate y'all. Michael C. - Georgetown

When my uncle died without a will, the prospect of going through probate in a far away state seemed…read morelike an impossible task. After interviewing several Austin Estate Attorneys we chose the Haney Law Firm and WE COULD NOT BE HAPPIER!!! They are fantastic! During the lead up to our hearing, they were in constant communication with us, made sure we knew exactly what to expect and helped us gather all of the information both they, the Ad Litem (Court appointed attorney) and the judge needed. Flash forward... I can NOT believe how supremely prepared Caitlan Haney Johnston (our attorney) was for the Probate Hearing. Both the witnesses and I were thoroughly prepped for the testimony we would be expected to give and, by the time we walked into the courtroom, we were all completely comfortable with what to expect. The hearing went exactly as we were told it would by Caitlan and she stayed with us to make sure all of the post hearing paperwork was filled out correctly including the stamped copies of the judge's orders. The next day I received both calls and emails from Amber (the amazing paralegal) and Caitlan making sure we knew exactly what the court expects of us and the time lines. I could not have asked for more!!! The Haney Law Firm is the absolute "Best of the Best!!!"

BEWARE. They claim a free initial consultation but use the whole time asking you about the case…read moreyou've already told them about in your initial filing with them they should have read before the call, and then they tell you they don't know about this and they don't know about that and then send you an email to say email them if you have any questions. And when you do have another question, they then want to charge you $300ish for an hour consultation or almost $150 for a half hour. My case is unusual and not a cut and dry issue and so I thought that's why I was told I could email them with any questions. But when I emailed Scarlett and told her that I had no problem paying to speak to her, but I certainly didn't want to pay if she was going to tell me she didn't know about anything, I got no response. Absolute crickets chirping So this seems more than a bit scammy. I would have definitely been upset had I paid for the initial consultation, as it was absolutely not worth $139 or whatever the charge and certainly not $300! I had to even ask things from my own research - so instead of them saying "you can file contempt motions", I had to ask can I file a motion for contempt to which she said "you can try". And the judge is hearing the motion I filed, but that is from MY research and MY work! I'm not even certain they would have even thought of it had I not brought it up! Just be a good person and do the right thing! I thought because of her personal story of having landlord issues herself, they wouldn't act like this. Don't offer an initial free consultation if it's not going to be an initial free consultation! Just say right up front you're charging. I understand people need to make a living, however I do a LOT of work for free just to be a good member of society. And I always try to help someone as much as I can. I even asked them if they wanted to help me sue this guy and his insurance company, where I'm sure they could make a lot more money in a settlement than just simple evictions, and of course I did say I would pay her, but I need to get something worthwhile out of it. I am so sick of professionals getting paid no matter what for incompetent or no work. Lawyers here, who seem to not want to work for justice, but just want to take easy cases where they can do minimal work and get paid exorbitant amounts, and doctors are notorious for it. Doctors can treat you terribly and misdiagnose you and they still get paid. I wish I could be wrong in my job all the time and still get paid. The whole thing is outrageous. ChatGPT is coming for your jobs and clearly it is deserved. It has been FAR more helpful (not perfect right now, you still have to manage it). Oh, and FREE. I prevailed in the writ, won the eviction and now the contempt charges. So I guess...karma? You guys should have been more ethical (which you swear an oath to do) and better members of civil society.

Four years ago, entering into my sixth decade of life, I was confident in my bullet proof financial…read moreretirement plan. However, a year later I took the advice from someone I wholeheartedly loved and trusted to invest in a real estate opportunity. Three years later, I have witnessed a slow and steady loss of funds to an investment I was guaranteed would produce not only my investment dollars back but 10% interest. Now there is no guarantee, which left me paralyzed with fear. Being new to Austin I felt stuck in this situation so I shared my dilemma with a new friend. He, a Family-Law Attorney, interrupted me to say without hesitation, "You need David Gottfried! He's not only an excellent Real Estate Attorney, but he's a brilliant Trail Attorney, too." I thanked him for his recommendation but still wasn't sure this was a matter I could trust to anyone at this point. I felt stuck with no hope. My friend encouraged me to stay on the phone with him while he called David to join us on a 3-way conference call immediately. Not even knowing where to start my friend introduced me to David then I sat in silence listening to the two men discuss my potential case. This matter was way too big and emotional for me to even give input. Within a few days David earned my trust. He was patient with my questions, he never talked down to me, and often said things to rebuild my confidence and self-worth. David, truly cares and protects his clients from heading deeper into the abyss. He is reliable, able, and strong. Plus, he's a mover and a shaker who thinks out of the box, and often laughs at my crummy jokes. David actually makes a stressful time almost feel like it's a fun thing to do. He's an amazing man who can balance brilliance with bedside manner. David Gottfried and his team are the very best Austin has to offer.
