Testimonials

D.L.:

I acquired Travis Turner's representation in Dec 2011, thanks to a recommendation from a close friend. From our first meeting to today, Travis has been the most valuable asset in my corner! I relied on Travis's expertise and followed his instructions/recommendations to a tee. I believe this allowed me to walk away from this unfortunate situation with my head held high. Knowing that I had Travis and his team (especially Andrea, his paralegal) supporting me, held me together until my divorce was finalized. This process has taken over a year, and thus Travis got to hear from me quite a bit!! There are not enough words to express my gratefulness for his support and for going out of his way to make sure that my son and I were taken care of. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Travis to anyone going through a similar situation.

My family would like to convey our deepest thanks to Jim, Jake and Andrea for working so closely with us during our whole litigation process. We have been living a nightmare for the past 18 months and finally feel we have had our day in the Texas Court. When we left the courthouse we knew you had spent a lot a time and given a lot of thought in representing us. Your professionalism and dedication to this case was the best Christmas our family could have wished for. Thank you again for your team work.

S.A.:

My name is S.A., and my divorce had taken a turn for the worse. After retaining the attorneys of Piper & Turner they immediately acted and kept me up to date everyday as to what was going on. Whenever I had a question it was responded to within the hour. CPS was involved with my divorce and I had no idea how to handle the situation. The entire staff handled my divorce and worked endlessly to have everything prepared for court and made sure things went smoothly when things mattered the most. The attorneys would meet with me and made sure I was up to date about everything that was going on. The paralegals worked endlessly preparing paperwork, and made sure that the attorneys had everything they needed to be prepared. Mr. Piper made things look easy when in court and was always confident and handled situations that came up in court. These three individuals, when working as a team are a very impressive group of people who spend as much time as it takes to get things done and make sure things go smoothly when it counts.

D.E.:

I have had a professional relationship with Piper & Turner approaching two years, and it is my pleasure to provide the highest recommendation based on my experience with this law firm. I approached the firm in a defensive position at the onset with an extremely complicated case involving custody, support, mental illness, jurisdiction, and domicile restriction. Mr. Piper and team immediately turned the situation around within a week's notice, placing my position in that of power. The experience and expertise this firm brings to each individual case is fueled by their thorough command of family law, preparedness in trial presentation, and sheer brilliance.

They are fierce, yet compassionate and approach every situation with the utmost integrity. They command respect of the law and will fight to the depths of your case to secure success. This firm is an investment in your future that has long-term and wide-reaching impacts. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for all the hard work, accommodations, and honesty that were demonstrated during a very trying time of my life. I could not be more pleased with the results produced.

A.N.:

I was referred to Jake Gilbreath by a wonderful support group in Austin. I was very pleased with the legal services of Jake and Piper and Turner. The firm as a whole is very professional in what they do. This past year in the midst of domestic violence that was ongoing for a long time I retained the legal services of Jake Gilbreath. We ended up ultimately settling the case in mediation and did not go to trial but the whole process is extremely stressful as one would anticipate. From the getgo Jake was very honest with me. He is not the one to give unrealistic expectations to a client and will prepare you for the worst. With Jake basically you get what you see.

He explained things to me in a way I could understand and sometimes I remember asking the questions multiple times and he never blew me off. He is also very responsive to phone calls/emails and will stay in contact with you throughout the case which was very important to me. My case involved domestic violence and he understood the issues and handled it very sensitively and fought for me and my daughter. I felt that he is a good family man with a great heart. He is more experienced than his age or what his resume suggests and handles things with the utmost maturity. Throughout the trial he was very organized, prepared for everything, was caring and extremely responsive. He did give me lot of legal advices in other related matters that is potentially going to save me a lot of money. A divorce is something that I do not want even my worst of enemies to go through especially with a child involved. Having said this, would I choose Jake if I needed legal services in the future. Absolutely yes, I would choose him in a heartbeat for the above mentioned reasons.

If you are the good guy in the divorce like me all you need is an attorney like Jake and you will not go wrong with your decision.

I was introduced to Jake through another guardian angel that God put on my path. My previous lawyer was not doing a very good job and I felt she was not fighting for me enough. I could feel and tell she did not take my case to her heart. Money was running out very fast and temporary order was not even entered yet. I needed child support and I was also worried money would be gone soon and eventually she would just take the money and drop the case. Although she was not doing much the opposite side was even worse to make the divorce keep on going, they wouldn't cooperate with her, much less make sure the drug test was done on time and child support paid. I had to pay her to do the draft for the temporary order so it could be entered and child support be enforced and that was something the opposite side was ordered by the judge to do but for their convenience never did until Jake came to the picture. When I shopped around I chose Jake and had him dismiss her for me. I was one of these people that believed the more experience the better. She had over 25 years of experience but did not fight like Jake did, not even close. The amount of work done when Jake took my case was tremendously ridiculous for the amount I had paid already but that does not mean I did not appreciate her effort and work. God bless her for the good intentions. At first I was unsure about Jake. He is so young. But hey that was the right and the best choice I made and I don't regret for a second. Don't underestimate this young attorney he DOES know the law and he will fight for you. He is so dedicated. Jake has a great heart, is very calm but he can be aggressive in court when it is necessary. He DID so much for me and my little one. I know in my heart he did cared for my case and he worked real hard to protect us. He got out of my divorce the best of my interest and the best for my son. A master piece!! He is a genius. He is very very good at responding emails. He won't blow you off. What I like the most in his professional manners is that the fact he would explain everything as many times as I needed to understand no matter how ignorant I am when it comes down to law and legal terms.
If your case has nasty ingredients like mine had. Abuse of all levels, drug addiction, domestic violence, cheating, sex addiction, I would recommend Jake in a heartbeat. He understands domestic violence and the dynamic of it very well. He knows how to deal with the opposite side when there is drug abuse involved and the safety of your child. He is very good in deposition he will catch lies and contradictions very fast. He will build your case the best way it can be done. He won't waste his time, your time or EVEN your money. Trust me he saved me tons of money that I do not even have. He made sure I spent only on necessary legal tools like the deposition that strongly helped my case. He advised me about all my options during the divorce so I could be aware and make an informed decision. This was not offered to me before with my previous lawyer. Jake got a lot of my respect just for that. If I had to do this again and I hope I don't. I would choose Jake for sure. If it wasn't for him this divorce would be still dragging to this year 2011. My divorce was final on the anniversary of the last assault 12/20/2010. Exactly a year after my ex decided to raise his hand to me one more time and I decided that was the last time he would ever do this to me. This divorce means a healing process, a closure for myself, a sense of peace, a new start and hope of a promising future ahead for Ryan and I. Thank you, Jake from the bottom of my heart for everything you done for us. God bless you.

R.T.:

Mr. Gilbreath represented my daughters and I during a very hard time in our lives. I was trying to get myself and my children out of a violent and controlling relationship. During the time he represented us we were living in Ohio. I was afraid that this would keep me from being adequately represented; this was not the case by any means. I can honestly say that Mr. Gilbreath was a gift sent to us from God. He went above and beyond to help my daughters and I. His dedication and determination was apparent from the start. I always felt that our outcome was of the up most importance to him. I was very scared to face our abuser in court, but he stayed by my side and guided me through with grace and understanding. Mr. Gilbreath has become an extended family member and will always have a special place in our hearts. His dedication and diligence has enabled us to live healthy and full lives without fear. I would defiantly recommend him to my closest friends and dearest family. To Mr. Gilbreath his clients are not just clients they are people in need, and he is ready to answer that call. His empathy and compassion shine in his work, as does his belief in the justice system. Our family will forever be grateful for what he has done for us.

J.P.:

I needed someone to represent me when I filed for divorce. Not having ever hired an attorney, I interviewed a few candidates and Mr. Turner's firm stood out from the rest. Travis was very professional and personable and offered me direct and honest answers. Without his very capable assistance and resources, I would have had a much more difficult time navigating in a sea of legalese. He was also very respectful of my time and money and always returned my calls and emails promptly. There was an epic amount of paperwork that needed to be pored over and referenced in my case and Travis committed himself to the task and did not gloss over a paragraph. He has a great deal of experience in the area of family law and was particularly knowledgeable when expert witnesses were needed. I believe he is someone who is very conscientious and truly cares about his clients. He is a very good listener, as well. He is discriminating and will not just accept any client. Highest possible recommendation!
