READ THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS! I was like you, looking for a decent attorney to help in a case...then I came across George Ruiz. I thought it odd at first that he had over 230 reviews (most positive) and just about every other attorney had between 20 and 70 but I thought nothing of it at the time. This was the absolute worst experience with an attorney I or my wife have ever had. Extremely unprofessional, the girls in his office seem to get cycled out every other month and they charge you for everything. Now you would expect to pay for most things but it gets ridiculous quick. Want to call the office only to have the lady answer and say "I don't know" or "George isn't in"? You'll get charged for that. Every text message, email and anything else you can thing of, cha-ching! Our case took well over a year and we constantly had to keep the retainer fee filled for him to withdraw from, it seemed like a bottomless pit. He didn't even feel like he was on our side nor did he care about our situation or case and only cared about getting paid. Beyond that he rarely ever communicates with you, then when the court date comes he constantly has to "prepare for court" and charges you a couple thousand dollars even when he already prepared and the court date just gets pushed out a week. If you have any issues or complaints you just get threatening texts. Do yourself a favor and STAY FAR AWAY from this law office. Looking back, there is no way he could have that many positive reviews unless you pay a service to flood you with reviews. If so, that's a sneaky trick, but I have come to expect nothing less from this place.

One star is too much. I hired Mr. Ruiz to help defend me in what I thought was a child support Re-evaluation. My ex knew I was moving overseas and wanted more money from me. I had a contract job, which was a temporary job and took on a government permanent job, which I always wanted but was only making $24000/year for first year which was the probationary period. After one year I moved up a grade and worked full time at $50,000/year. Out of kindness of my heart I agreed to pay child support based on $50,000 even though I was only making $24k. The judge said no and increased my child support from base of $70k to $76k. MR.. Ruiz did and said nothing… not one word. I sent him evidence my ex bought two homes in very affluent neighborhoods. One in Stone Oak and one brand new home in Bulverde built to her specifications that cost over $500k. Ruiz never said anything. In fact Mr. Ruiz never returned my phone calls. Before I left the United States I called his office at least 4 times in an 8 hour span, he never called me back. He had discussions with opposing counsel and never told me about it until the court date. He never had a plan. He never took time to call me to discuss a plan. He just took my money. Charged me for filing paperwork and his meetings with opposing counsel. This guy is the worst attorney in San Antonio for family practice. Lastly, after the judge ruled he quit. He said I was the problem. If trying to communicate with your attorney who never calls you back is a problem??? Don’t get this guy!

Due to my experience with Ruiz and Associates, PLLC, I find it very hard to believe all the bad reviews against them. I am very pleased and totally satisfied with Ruiz and Associates, PLLC, in representing me in my divorce case. From the initial interviews, discovery phase, many meditations, and final court hearing, George C. Ruiz (Attorney at Law), Brandi N. Aguillon (Attorney at Law) and Heather Ramirez (Paralegal) were very courteous, professional, and knowledgeable, and they always treated me with dignity and respect. They always had my back and wouldn't let Opposing Counsel strong arm me. Despite roadblocks from Opposing Counsel, all correspondence, calls, scheduling, required legal documents, and filings were responded to quickly and on time. They wouldn't let Opposing Counsel impede what had to be done and was always staying on top of things with Opposing Counsel. The firm always kept me informed and up to date from the beginning of the case to the very end. Due to the hard work of Brandi and Heather, the final hearing with the Judge was less than three minutes. Thank You all for a job well done.

  • Brandy King

I cannot recommend Brandi enough! From the moment I spoke to her, she displayed professionalism, compassion, and expertise. I was facing an incredibly difficult divorce against my spouse, who is an addict, and there were many complicated and emotionally charged issues that needed to be addressed. They never made me feel like just another case. Perhaps most impressive was the way my attorney navigated the complexities of my case with the utmost sensitivity and tact. She was consistently respectful and understanding of my situation, and her deep knowledge of the law was matched by her emotional intelligence. She always kept my best interests in mind and worked tirelessly to ensure that I received a favorable outcome. In short, if you are facing a difficult divorce or any other legal matter, you NEED Brandi and Heather on your team! She is truly one of the best in the business, and I cannot thank her enough for everything she did for me. So if you want a dedicated and compassionate advocate who will fight for you every step of the way, look no further than my amazing attorneys!! Brandi & Heather ❤️

  • Ricky Martinez

One of the worst unprofessional law firms that I’ve experienced. I don’t know if everybody in there is the same way. But the lawyer that they assigned to my case, basically threaten me and basically put fear into sign some documents that I refuse to sign. She ruined my case out of my own business. Be careful don’t trust this law firm if they try to make you sign any papers, do not sign it, under any kind of circumstances, even if they threaten you in any kind of way. She basically told me that if I didn’t sign the papers I was gonna lose 50% custody of my son and also in that court building all the Judge are woman except for one judge. she basically told me that I was gonna lose my temporary case. Then I try to talk to Goerge and he basically just hung the phone up. We don’t need this kind of business in our city of and I still have to pay in three basically ruining my life.

  • Rick Torres

I don't have the words to thank Ruiz & Associates enough... These folks just notified me how my court order has been signed by a Judge and is now final. It has been a four year battle with getting my sons mom and grandmother to comply with a prior order and was going nowhere with my previous attorney. I called Ruiz & Associates and explained how my son and I are in California, but the case and court order was in Texas. Mr Ruiz quickly advised me what we needed to do and how it will all worked and it all went accordingly! Thank you Mr. Ruiz for not only getting my son and I another $300 extra per month for child support from his mom, but for also helping us get closure. I also wanted to thank his Legal Assistant, Ms. Carol Cano as she really helped keep me calm through the process and expedited everything to get us across the finish line. Best Legal Team in Texas!

  • Pink Crayola

The words to describe this law firm is unbelievable. Mr. Ruiz didn’t the disappoint he went and did what probably any other lawyer couldn’t have done. I had called multiple before hiring Mr. Ruiz and the answers I received where nothing compared to what Mr. Ruiz made happened for me and my family I am so great full to have dealt with he’s paralegal team. I had a pleasure to meet Carol who was supper nice and helpful and just showed me that this is one of the strongest and aggressive law firms here in San Antonio who go up and beyond for you. Thank you so much for helping get my baby back words can’t even explain how happy I am and to have met such wonderful people through this difficult journey.

  • Susie Leal

They are THE BEST LAW FIRM IN SAN ANTONIO I have a long story but… they helped me through my divorce. I was married (miserably) 5 years and i was scared of the process. They divorced me in a very professional manner, they mediated and I never had to show up my face anywhere. Neither did my ex Then I remarried at a later time (my ex gave me rights to my child) they helped me with my current husband’s adoption of my child. Again, super professional, quick. Never had to leave the comfort of my home. I feel like for everything they did. The prices were super accessible, they worked with a payment plan for me. Gave me time to pay according to my needs. I will recommend them to ANYONE. Thank you!!!

  • Nisa Tovar

Words can't express how grateful I am to have hired Mr. Ruiz when I needed him to get my son back. I don't know how much more to Thank Mr. Ruiz & Ms. Carolina for there help & support that they have given me during my difficult time. Everytime I had any questions I would get answers, no matter either during or after jon business hours. I am very satisfied with his legal services & especially in returning my son back to me. I highly recommend Mr. Ruiz to anyone in my situation, he is an open & honest, & gets straight to the point. You will not regret it. Again I want to thank you Mr Ruiz in everything you have done for me, best attorney I have ever met

  • Candy DuMond

I have to say Mr. George Ruiz hands down is a great attorney to have. He is straight forward, honest , no nonsense , aggressive and delivers the best results. I had a previous attorney before I hired Mr. Ruiz and felt my case wasn’t being represented firmly and aggressively like it should have been, once I hired Mr. Ruiz I felt so much relief and confidence about my case and sure enough Mr Ruiz got the job done. I also have to mention his paralegal Mrs. Candy Ryan always on top of everything always their to answer any questions and always keeping me posted with information. I highly recommend The Law Office of George C. Ruiz.

  • David Vargas

The team here was amazing. They all genuinely cared, and valued me as a person and not as a client. They cared about what I had to say, and always kept me updated on everything that was happening. Everyone there was in constant communication, and informed on everything. I'd especially like to thank Heather, who worked with me through the entirety of my case. She was absolutely amazing. She always responded to any questions I had, she made time for meetings, and personally followed up with any updates we everything progressed. I highly recommend this Law Office, for your needs.

What a wonderful office filled with amazing people. I never thought I’d be able to get through my case if it wasn’t for Mr. Ruiz and Heather Ramirez. She really was such an amazing human through this whole thing. Heather kept me informed, she helped me with any difficulties along the way, it really felt like I had her genuine support. My case was settled in my favor and it was all thanks to this office and Heather! I highly recommend this amazing team.

  • William Saul

Professional!!! I called Mr. Ruiz and immediately he was able to provide me with some very helpful and insightful information. Even though he wasn’t able to provide too much (as my issue is out of state), he still provided me with resources and guidance to further along my needs. I can only imagine that he would be even more courteous and helpful if I was able to acquire his services. Thank you Mr. Ruiz for everything.

Mr. Ruiz did a great job and was in my corner every step of the way. He was honest about the process and advised me on next steps that could get me the best possible outcome when I was not being as patient. Ms. Cano was also a pleasure to work with and responded to me in a timely manner with any inquires I had. I appreciate this law firm for all their hard work on my case and would recommend them to anyone.
