Dedicated Divorce Representation in Houston, TX

When it comes to choosing a divorce lawyer that is best suited for you during this difficult time, you should look for four key elements: experience, creativity, affordability and personality. At our firm, the focus is always to provide excellent legal assistance in all of these areas. If you enlist the help of the Law Office of Eric L. Frederickson P.C., you can rest assured that that is just what you will receive.

Experience - At a minimum, you need an attorney who knows the law and who knows the judges in the courts where your case will be heard. Our firm possesses over 30 years of combined experience in Texas family law, property, and debt issues. Eric Fredrickson, our chief litigator, is well known and respected by judges in the Montgomery County and Harris County family courts. What can you expect from a particular judge? Ask Eric. He knows. What's more, he thrives on the high-tension atmosphere of the courtroom, and is not afraid to take a stand. Whether you are faced with a high net worth divorce or need legal assistance with international family law matters, the Law Office of Eric L. Frederickson P.C. can handle it all.

Creativity - As a legal team, we define creativity as the art of shaping the "black letter law," our court experience and our life experience into a winning solution for you. Keep in mind that "winning" in a divorce case may mean different things to different people. Every client has his or her own goals— including freedom, financial security, peace of mind or a child's happiness and safety—and an attorney's knowledge of the law means nothing if he or she can't effectively put that knowledge to work for you. We listen to and value the needs of each individual client. We do not take a cookie-cutter approach. The divorce process is not simple, nor is it a quick fix to end marital problems. There are many branches of divorce and legal separation and ensuring that each and every aspect of your marriage termination is successfully completed is our personal responsibility.

Affordability - Divorce law is our business, but we understand that even though our clients are grateful for our help, they often wish they didn't have to hire us at all. The attorney's fees you pay in your divorce should be commensurate with the complexity of your case and the level of contention between you and your spouse. Your fee should not be based on the size of your bank account. We never charge hidden or unnecessary fees. We respect all of our clients and would never spring any additional fees on you upon the completion of your case—take it from the clients that we have represented in the past. Read through the client testimonials that we have provided on our website and see why a great number of individuals were happy with the way the Law Office of Eric L. Fredrickson has represented their case.

Personality - Simply put, you should choose an attorney with whom you feel most comfortable. Talk a while with the lawyer you intend to hire before you retain the services of the firm. A lawyer who doesn't care enough to talk with you now, might not be available to talk with you later. You will want to hire an attorney who demonstrates knowledge, confidence, and an understanding of what you're going through. You may have to share highly personal or embarrassing information with your lawyer, so you will need someone who you can communicate with. Our law firm doesn't put paralegals or legal assistants between us and our clients. Eric Fredrickson personally takes the time to talk with every potential client who calls the firm for advice or information.
