Brian Walters is an amazing attorney. This review is going to be slightly long, so please bear with me, but I feel a short review would not do proper justice to how well Brian handled my divorce case. By the time I contacted Brian Walters, my divorce case had been dragging on for over seven months with no resolution in sight, and I felt that my attorney at the time was not properly representing my interests. I called Brian's office and was immediately connected with Brian. He spent over an hour on the phone with me listening to the particulars of the case, and explained to me how he would handle my case going forward. He even advised me on how to handle removing my previous attorney from the case. After that first phone call, I felt like I was in control of my case for the first time since I had filed for divorce. I removed my previous attorney from my case and got Brian a retainer fee (which was very reasonable). I met Brian at his office, and was very impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of both Brian and his staff. After speaking with Brian for half an hour, he had revised documents filed with the court, a trial date set, and a strategy to close my case. He then (very professionally), contacted my ex with a settlement offer. Unfortunately, my ex was unwilling to settle, so we took the case to trial before a judge. Brian made sure I understood the process before hand, and was extremely competent, poised and professional. Mr. Walters was able to complete my divorce case (with a favorable resolution for me) in less than two months. Beyond Brian's excellent understanding of family law, his consummate professionalism, and his unflappable confidence, he is also very accessible. At no point during my case did it take more than 20 minutes for him to respond to me - even on weekends and while he was on vacation. Additionally, he always treated me with the utmost respect and made it very clear that it was his top priority to represent my interests to the best of his (considerable) abilities. If you have need of a family law attorney, do yourself (and your kids, if applicable) a favor and call Brian Walters - you won't regret it.

I wanted to take a minute and reflect on my experiences with WaltersGilbreath LLC. I initially connected with Jake Gilbreath in Austin, Texas in early 2017. Due to unforeseen and unfortunate events with my now ex-wife, I connected with Jake within minutes. His professionalism and “to the point” style of legal representation was nothing less than stellar. I had already spoken with a handful of other “fathers rights” attorneys in the greater Austin area and was honestly quite disappointed. My hope was fading but my faith was about to skyrocket. Upon first contact, Jake was very welcoming and took time out of his personal life to assist with mine. It did not take me nor my extended family long to know that Jake was going to be part of our team! He was humble and inquisitive straight out the gate. He explained to my family and I the complexities of domestic disputes and covered all basis’s before I even signed a contract! WaltersGilbreath LLC not only assisted in regaining custody of my two daughters, but also walked by my side through quite a mess of a divorce. The firm somehow made a very unpleasant decision of mine, into a seamless process of organization and accomplishing the best for my children! Nobody plans on a separation yet unfortunately in today’s society it has become ever so prevalent. Father’s are often “thrown to the wolves” in the state of Texas but you must not be discouraged! Even in your darkest days there can be light, and for me that guiding light was Mr. Jake Gilbreath and his entire staff at WaltersGilbreath LLC. I live by three main pillars in life..Hope, Love, and Faith and WaltersGilbreath LLC strengthened those and returned my life and family to me. If you are debating legal representation in the greater Austin area do not hesitate to call WaltersGilbreath LLC. You will not be disappointed nor turned away. Thank you all for the continued support, my words cannot come close to the amount of gratitude I have for you all!

Jake has been an incredible attorney. He did an absolutely incredible job representing me throughout my divorce and custody hearings back in 2013. It was not a simple case by any means; I was asking for a lot. He was very straight forward about his agenda and executed them seamlessly. He got the other party to settle and we signed off on everything I asked for, within reason. That arrangement was perfect for our family but unfortunately two years later in 2015, my situation with my children's father took a turn for the worse. I was uncertain what was going on but I rehired Jake to help me sort it out. He immediately set up a meeting with him that Sunday (his day off). Within a week we were in court with an order to test the other party for drugs. As soon as he found out the results came back positive for several drugs, he called me to meet him at his office to sign off on an injunction. He went before a judge that same day to cease all visitations until we could get a Guardian Ad Litem to further investigate. This escalated quickly from a modification case to a termination case. He communicates very well and doesn't beat around the bush. I have full faith in Jake. He has always put the best interest of the children first and that alone lets me rest easy. Even though he has several clients at a time, he has never made me feel like anything less than his top priority. I would (and have) recommend him to anyone going through a hard time and in need of a fantastic attorney.

I hope you don't find yourself needing an attorney, but if you do, I highly recommend Karina Rambeau. I started working with her several years ago, and since then, our situation has improved so much. She changed my life and my kids' lives for the better. I am incredibly grateful for all the hard work she put into our case. She makes sure you understand everything happening in your case, does not miss details, is ridiculously organized, and is always more than prepared. My favorite moment was when we walked into court, and she had massive binders (yes, plural) of evidence for my case and set them out on the table. If that does not intimidate the opposing party - I don't know what will. I never had to remind her about our case when I called - she knew every detail. Some of these traits cannot be taught in law school, but she genuinely cares about her clients. She will go above and beyond for any of her clients. She is smart and knows her stuff. If you want an attorney that listens to her clients, knows how to explain things to non-lawyers, and loves her work. Do not hesitate to work with Karina.

As a professional Athlete I needed someone that would be on my case. Jake started off really well but towards the end dropped the ball many times. Including forgetting about my case. Moved offices without notifying me twice. As he was switching offices it did seem like he was a bit disorganized. He was not the best at updating or replying to emails and I have many emails which were not replied to. There was paper work that was not properly filed which delayed my case significantly (almost 3 years) I ended up switching Lawyers and had a much better result in 1/10th of the time. I would not hire him again. RE: After two lost child support checks that I took personally hand delivered to Mr. Gilbreath's office at his direction. I started to receive letters from the Attorney general which were promptly forwarded to Mr. Gilbreath and his office, however there was no response to this and other pressing emails regarding possible garnishing until yes, my accounts were garnished. Good thing there is always email proof. This was just my experience. Not to say others will experience the same.

When facing a divorce after a 25-year marriage with modest assets to divide and no minor children, I sought out an attorney with the characteristics of a “fox” not a “pit-bull”. I found Jake to be experienced, smart, goal oriented, creative, compassionate and no-nonsense. We were working on a divorce I’d filed as a no fault/ simple case that quickly descended into a contested, combative and tedious nightmare due to tactics beyond our control.  Jake stayed above the fray with his eyes on the prize –  an equitable settlement. When we were forced to a frivolous hearing - he was a fierce advocate in the courtroom.  He’s was succinct and to the point and effortlessly found “flaws” in the opponent’s narrative.   The judge ruled in our favor. If you are facing a divorce, James “Jake” Gilbreath will get the job done, without exacerbating an already adversarial situation. Jake truly went above and beyond in my case – I’ll never forget the compassion, patience and competence of the attorney from Waxahachie, Texas.    If you want effective/smart representation – you’ve found it.

Our family simply could not have asked for better representation than we were blessed with when Carah-Beth Bass picked up the pieces left by two previous arrogant, uncaring, incompetent and greedy attorneys. She listened to our concerns, put together a solid case and then took that case into a courtroom packed with cronyism and nepotism to reunite us with my grand daughter. Her calm, wise approach comforted us during our most anxious moments and her vast experience in advocating fiercely for children and families in the legal arena resulted in achieving a final agreement that was as fair as possible under the circumstances we were confronted with. Carah-Beth truly cared for us, as her clients, and kept her focus on the outcome that would best serve the needs of the child at the center of the dispute. Her heart, skills, tenacity and, above all, her upstanding moral code served us well. At all times she was honest with us and responsive to our concerns. Our family will always be grateful for everything she did for us. We highly recommend her.

I paid several lawyers, over 30 years, between 2 states who had failed to make any progress with a case complicated by government agencies' apathy and incompetence. Recently, Walters Gilbreath started from scratch, cut through the nonsense and accomplished more - in much less time - than I'd ever thought possible. Once I contacted Brian and any level of his staff, the "complex" became very simple. They cut through the red tape and produced results. There was no wasted time, expense or frustration. Unlike any others in my experience, Walters Galbreath responds to client questions/concerns quickly and provides realistic, accurate information. Most importantly, they LISTENED to me. WG proved that they are truly advocates. They were objective, but they were also aggressive in representing my best interests. And, by the way, I would have written this review even if we had not been so successful ... without even having to go to any of the multiple courts.

I was referred to Brian by friend of mine who is an attorney at a well known firm in town. Brian has been outstanding. He is very efficient in his interactions, very thorough in his explanations of legal processes and always looked out for my best interests in our interactions. He carefully explained options when there were decision points, outlined various alternatives to next steps and then handled the subsequent activities in a timely manner. Brian has been responsive to all my inquiries and also patient in waiting for me to make some decisions. My interactions with him also included a filing with his associate, who is also very professional. Brian ensured that he kicked off that process by setting my expectations and then ensuring a complete and thorough follow up. Brian also leverages technology to handle some of the operational aspects of the engagements and that makes those efficient and cost effective. I would highly recommend Brian.

I have been working closely with Jake and Stefani for the past three years on a very tumultuous child custody case. It was a very complicated, heart-breaking situation, but they walked with me every step of the way, always making me feel supported. I could always rely on the constant communication each time I reached out, which was very important to me and helped calm my nerves. I have recommended this team to anyone that is looking for legal assistance, and I will continue to recommend them for as long as I live. They fought my case with as much passion and concern that I had, which resulted in a huge win in the end. I am forever grateful to them. I can't say enough good things about them. Words don't do justice to express how much I have appreciated their work ethic and knowledge of the justice system. Please know that if you work with them, you will be taken care of completely. They put their heart in their work, and it shows.

I had all but lost hope until I found Walters Gilbreath. Jake and Sydney's knowledge, demeanor and ethical professionalism were outstanding. I had already worked with two lawyers with disappointing results. I had also consulted with three lawyers who did not believe I had a case. Jake and Sydney were calm, methodical and were confident with their interpretation of the events and evidence. Not only did we win but we won far more than I thought possible. No one wants to be in an egregious child custody situation but I was finally shown compassion and the legal support I needed to be able to sleep and breath again. Thank you Sydney for your patience and legal guidance and clarity - your amazing. If your looking for an ethical and knowledgeable team who are great communicators, tech savy with incredible integrity look no further. I hope I do not need their services again but If I do I know Im in good hands with this firm.

I was ambushed with a divorce and a custody battle. I needed a knowledgeable tested lawyer that offered quality and affordability and brought value to my case. I retained Brian Walters to represent me and it was the smartest thing I ever did. Brian was able to guide me through the hardest event in my life with a sense of compassion and focus. As my attorney he reminded me that since there was a child involved it was not just about me or her. Because of the work Brian and his entire staff did on my behalf I was able to work out a mutual agreement that kept our child out of court and resolved our divorce with out a trial and it cost me much less then I had thought it would. Brian and his staff are responsive, professional and 100% on board with what you need to do to move forward in such a difficult time in your life. This is a first class firm that I recommend to my friends and family.

Brian and his team can't be beat. With almost 2 decades of experience in TX, it was apparent immediately that my husband and I were in good hands when we started an ugly custody battle. He was honest and didn't sugar coat anything, but reassuring at the same time. I have heard nothing but horror stories about people's experiences with attorneys and this was a first for me. I've never had any legal battle, so I was very nervous. Family law seems to be ugly most of the time, but Brian and his team made us feel at ease with our case from day 1. He knows the judges in Austin and accurately anticipates how they will likely respond to any given circumstance, which made the whole process easier for us. At the end of the day, the custody battle ended with a successful adoption. My family and I couldn't be happier. I very strongly recommend Brian Walters.

I had a unique custody case that was a bit of an uphill battle for what I wanted to accomplish. Catherine Fuller and Slav Talavera were incredible and got me AMAZING results and I was completely done within a few months. I thought this would drag out through the end of the year. They were extremely thorough and excellent with communication. I hope I won't need their services again, but will go back to them if I ever do and I highly recommend Walters Gilbreath. New post 10/25/21: I had a fairly simple matter that I needed an attorney for and of course I went back to Walters Gilbreath. Jake was extremely quick to respond to my emails and got the matter wrapped up WAY faster than I thought would be possible. I hope I don't need a family lawyer again, but I will absolutely use Jake if I do. I can't recommend him and Walters Gilbreath highly enough.

I hired Kurt Metscher to help me gain Sole Conservatorship in a difficult and lengthy family law case. My original lawyer did very little to help me for 6 months. I am so happy I dropped counsel and went with Kurt Metscher at Walters Gilbreath! Kurt helped me navigate through stressful times, court proceedings, and negotiations. Kurt did a phenomenal job of walking me through the process and instilling confidence in me. Kurt really listened to my concerns and understood my perspective of things. He encouraged me and supported my decisions while also setting realistic expectations. I can't say enough about how amazing Kurt is at what he does. He is clearly dedicated to his clients and their needs. I am forever grateful to him and his team! I couldn't have done this without him. I recommend Kurt to anyone looking for a Family Law Lawyer.

I unexpectedly received a divorce petition and needed immediate help. After researching, I decided to retain Walters Gilbreath to represent me. Throughout the entire process from consultation to finalizing my agreed divorce decree the entire staff provided exceptional service. This being my first divorce and custody battle (a very difficult one to say the least), Luke Wallace and I were able to work out a mutual agreement with opposing council. This resolved my divorce without a trial and it cost me much less then I had thought it would. Luke is very knowledgeable, attentive, and excellent with communicating course of action. I am more than satisfied with the final outcome! I encourage anyone seeking an attorney for a divorce/custody matter to consult with Gilbreath!

Jake and team made a stressful situation so much easier my children and I to endure. I felt trusted, heard, important in the process and even protected. The communication was excellent. I know none of it was easy but they made it seem effortless. They made the situation better. They made it bearable. Enjoyable, even, some of the time. Which was unexpected. And valued. I look back on what could have been a very stressful, awful situation and think only about the respect, professionalism, kindness, skill, intelligence and compassion the entire team showed me and my family, friends and others involved. I would highly recommend them. It made a big difference in my life to work with Jake and his team of professionals. I feel very lucky to have them on my side.

I have nothing but great things to say about this law firm. After searching and speaking to many attorneys, Brian Walters was the most knowledgeable in family law. My case was different as I live in Chicago IL, but needed representation in Austin, TX. I was worried about price and communication. Brian Walters asked for about half of what other attorneys asked for a retainer. Communication with him and his office was amazing. There is a portal where you can see invoices, documents, and contact Brian Walters directly and he responds fast! Now that my case is finalized I feel comfortable recommending Brian Walters to anyone who needs to go through family matters like Child support.

I'm a current client of Mr. Brian Walter's law office in Austin, Texas an I have always had a positive experience in working with him. My primary means of contact with Mr. Walters was through email which was always prompt I never had to wait long for a reply. Mr. Walters also answered questions I had on weekend hours when the office was closed. I was using the legal services for a divorce an I never had a problem with Mr. Walter's performance whatever I asked of him it was done immediately. All petitions an other paperwork was filed quickly. Between the fees I was charged and the work that was received I was very satisfied an I will use this law office in the future if needed.

Karina Rambeau has been absolutely amazing during my divorce case. She has provided much needed guidance and calmness when my world was turned upside down. She is very knowledgeable, works FOR the client, and really strives to be the best lawyer she can be which shows in her work. She is very detailed oriented and holds the other side accountable when needed. Hands down I would go with her and this firm to anyone who is looking. Jake is available should there be assistance needed but Karina has been able to handle every area of my case. I love that she has the support from various lawyers with this firm should she need additional advice.

Jake and I went to law school together, so naturally when I started the divorce process myself, he came to mind. I couldn’t be happier with him and his entire firm. What was supposed to be an easy, uncontested divorce has turned in to an extremely difficult case with many additional filings and negotiations necessary to protect myself and my children. Jake is extremely responsive and has guided me in appropriate decision making which has left me in a much better position than I would have if I had decided to represent myself (don’t do that!). I couldn’t recommend Jake and his firm more highly. Best family lawyer in Austin!

My wife and I needed help gaining custody of our niece and turned to Jake to assist us with this matter. This was a very delicate matter as the mother knew this was the right decision but was unstable. Jake showed compassion, understanding, and extreme intelligent in dealing with this. He was able to build a solid path forward between all parties and was flexible enough to adapt it for the MANY obstacles that came up. Jake was able to work with the court to bypass a home study that would have added months to the process and costed thousands of dollars. We honestly cannot thank him and his team enough.

I was looking for a great trial attorney for a child modification. At Walters Gilbreath, they have gone above and beyond. I have a very limited budget and they have stuck with that budget and their work is outstanding. Jake Gilbreath and Robert Tsai at the firm are the first attorneys who have shown they actually care and have put an interest in my case, listened to the information I send them, and are very OCD. They get the job done right but also understand you cannot go bankrupt in the process. If you are looking for a great attorney, look no further. This is the place to go.

Jake is amazing. His focus is on creating healthy co-parenting dynamics for the kids. Even if the other party is making it difficult, Jake is an expert at maintaining focus and integrity throughout the games other family attorneys attempt to play. If you have children and it's all about money to you, don't call this guy. He won't put up with you. But if you need help fighting for your legal rights and your children are the top priority- then you shouldn't waste time getting in to see him because no one will work harder for you (or be as honest) than this guy.

If you are looking for a professional and positive law firm to handle your divorce, this is the place. The staff there is awesome! They are very professional and sensitive to your needs. Sheree Roberts is a very nice and professional and this office is great to have her on there staff. She gave me great on options on how they will happen my divorce and kept me from being overwhelmed during the process. I would recommend them to anyone that I know that is looking for a great attorney and nice and friendly staff.

5 stars doesn't do Slav Talavera any justice. I've been embroiled in a bitter and complicated family law case for 4 years to which Slav guided me through the entire process when I hired him 6 months ago when no other attorney could. He was extremely patient, compassionate and fought for me with conviction. I finally get as though someone was fighting for me and in a family law case, that is what you need. He managed my expectations through and through and I could not be happier. He's simply the best.

I am beyond thankful to have had this team on my side! Stephanie's professionalism, strength, and pure kindness towards me during such a traumatic time was amazing. She is a great communicator and handled everything that was thrown our way wonderfully. In addition, Sarah was such an asset and provided assertive solutions that were extremely helpful. There's nothing more empowering than having strong, powerful women on your side during a huge life change. I highly recommend Walters Gilbreath!

Mr. Walters was the consummate professional. At a stressful time in my life, he was there to “walk me through” the system and to be my advocate in court. I’m afraid the court would have eaten me alive had Mr. Walters not been there for me. He was very prompt in answering all my questions and he earned an A+ for communication. I do highly recommend him. Family matters in court are stressful, to say the least. Take my advice…. don’t go through it alone. The legal fees are worth every penny.

Jake Gilbreath is a fantastic attorney and advocate. His assistance has forever changed the path of my family in a positive way! The process of pursuing a divorce and attempting to come to a resolution that is best -especially when it involves custody- can be very difficult. Through this entire process I felt like I had a counselor, guide, and a friend. If you are dealing with a family law issue or especially to do with child custody this is the only person that I would ever recommend!

Kurt goes beyond to help you when you are going through the toughest time of your life. He is very responsive,and very professional. I recommend him to anyone who goes through any family law related cases. He doesn't give you a promise, if he doesn't believe that he and his law firm can achieve. He gives you all the facts up front, so you won't get empty promises. He is with an outstanding law firm waltersgilbreath in TX. His integrity and discipline reflects on his success.

Raya is amazing and Bryan is just as great! Communication has been excellent and they truly care about their clients. Very helpful and great at answering questions. I could not be happier with the choice I made to hire him. If you want an amazing lawyer who has a great staff you need Bryan Walter!!!! Nothing but great things to say about him and his staff, especially Raya. They look out for their clients and do what’s best for them and truly want your input on everything!

My original family law attorney for many years had decided not to practice family law anymore so I was in desperate need to locate a new lawyer. Brian Walters was the 2nd law firm that I interviewed and was immediately impressed with his knowledge of the law and his “up front” candor. Another thing that impressed me was his fee and his attention to communication. If you are looking for an attorney that is very accessible Brian is for you. BTW he did win our case :-)

Brian is the guy that saved me when my ex filed for divorce. My experience with Brian was wonderful. If you are looking for a kind, concerned and professional attorney. Having Brian in your corner will be the best decision you could make. Brian and his staff will do everything possible to protect you when you need an attorney in your corner. After everything is over and done I consider Brian a good friend. You will never go wrong with Brian Walters in your corner.

My family and I had a great experience with Slav, Jake, and Mary Kate. They were extremely helpful and understanding of our situation. They truly went above and beyond. They guided us truthfully and supported us every step of the way. Everyone at the firm never let me feel alone. We had a total of 7 hearings and all of them were very successful. I am grateful for Walters Gilbreath and would definitely recommend. Definitely the best divorce firm in Austin!

I am extremely impressed with the Walters Gilbreath firm. The friendly staff sets the tone for your entire experience. Their approach makes you feel as though your case is unique and valued. I highly suggest working with Slav Talavera at Walters Gilbreath. Slav Talavera and staff are confident, informative, knowledgeable, and possess a full understanding of the letter of the law as well as the spirit of the law. They will swiftly execute on your behalf.

Was a great experience. Luke did an amazing job of relaying realistic scenarios and gave great advice on what was actually worth pursuing. I’ve seen legal teams lead clients down rabbit holes that inevitably lead to huge legal bills. This was not the case here, Luke was able to give insight on my demands and explained what was actually possible without giving false hope and unrealistic expectations. I would recommend them to anyone seeking legal aid.

I was served papers at 9pm on Monday and by 7am Tuesday, I already had a consultation setup with Jake. This firm is very good about communication and when I had my consultation later that same afternoon, Jake put me at ease. I appreciate how open, honest, and inclusive this firm is a look forward to a positive outcome in my case. Thank you Jake, Carlos, Katy, and all the staff that has welcomed me and helped me starting this stressful journey!

I can't give Brian and Raya enough stars. Sheree, the office manager, is also amazing and goes out of her way to help clients navigate through what is often the toughest time in life. They have been my rock while going through a highly contested divorce and are always there for me when I need advice, support, and guidance. If you are in the unfortunate position to seek counsel in a divorce or child custody matter, give Brian and Raya a call.

Jake and his staff represented me in a multi year divorce that was highly contentious and complicated. He was always responsive, honest, competent, never padded his invoices, and was incredible in court. I have sent multiple friends to him when they required a family lawyer. There are many family law lawyers to choose from in Austin; however, there are few that are truly competent. I wouldn't have trusted any one else in my own case.

Jake was extremely detail-oriented when reviewing my case and did a phenomenal job explaining my courses of action, the strong points of my case, and whether or not I was getting a fair deal. He was lightning fast in his communication and I felt completely at ease under his guidance. I would strongly recommend him to anybody going through a divorce and child custody case. Thanks again Jake - cannot thank you enough for everything.

O my god I’m so happy SLAV help me he’s so Nice and professional I’m happy he’s represent me . After five years was filing my divorce’ plus I had two attorneys wich was bad and lier Why cause I’m women ,thats why they take advantage on that . after finish pay all they don’t answer my Mail and my phone calls plus they didn’t do nothing likes nothing on my case .now I’m just cant believe its done . Thank you for all Slav !

I had been calling lawyers for weeks with no one answering or returning calls. I called Walters Gilbreath and right from the start I felt like they cared and wanted to help. Kylie answered the phone and I was put through to Sheree then to Brian Walters. He took the the time to answer all of my questions and give me some good advice. I would definitely recommend them for their professionalism, caring, and sage advice.

I cannot Express enough gratitude to David Spradling for his helpful demeanor throughout my divorce. I have been divorced before, but that was over 20 years ago and I know times and things have changed drastically. David gave me the confidence I needed and I felt assured things would be ok. Actually, after mediation, things turned out better than i anticipated and i owe that to David. Thank you David, well done!!

In 2014 I hired Brian Walters to represent me in a custody case. The divorce decree was amended in several areas that significantly benefited my visitation and parental rights. Since that time, on numerous occasions, several questions have arisen on issues and I have contacted Brian. Brian had immediately responded regardless of the hour. I would not hesitate to hire him again. Sincerely, William Greeson

I recently had a client who needed some immediate help with a custody matter. Since I don't handle those types of cases, I sent him to Jake Gilbreath. Jake was very responsive to my client but in addition, Aiden Michael followed up with me right away to make sure things got handled quickly and professionally. An all around great group of professionals that I will continue to refer clients to!

As a former client of Slav Talavera, I can state firsthand how diligent and responsive he was. Slav was able to make a very difficult situation and time in my life as smooth and seamless as possible. He was always willing to answer any questions or concerns I had throughout the process. I would highly recommend him and Walters Gilbreath to anyone looking for the best representation in Texas.

Jake Gilbreath and Brian Walters were always very professional, caring, and prompt with all of their responses to my questions. They handled my very complicated custody matter and were able to protect both me and my children in our time of need. If you need attorneys that are knowledgeable and will fight tooth and nail for you, I wouldn’t recommend any other firm. You won’t be disappointed.

I found an extended family at this form about a year and a half ago when I filed my divorce. Raya was amazing through it all.....but even now after the divorce has been finalized for over 6 months now. She still is available to answer any questions I have and is always offering to help if she’s able. This law firm truly is compassionate and caring. Her kindness will never go unappreciated.

Brian Walters is an Attorney that you can trust. I hired him for a child custody modification case about a year ago. The case ended up dragging out and finally came to fruition last month. Brian continued consistent support from the beginning of the case through the end. He responded to all communications from me within the hour I sent them. He and everyone from his firm are wonderful.

Read the Avvo reviews I worked with this attorney for two months and after spending over 30K, my hearing was dismissed within 10 minutes upon opening explanation. Now this attorney has refused to refund the unused retainer amount over 5K. Do not rely on Google reviews as this firm removes the negative ones. You will see on Avvo that many others have had this experience.

i needed support from the team at Walters and Gilbreath. I teamed with Jim Piper and Sydney Abdallah who both are wonderful, professional, responsive, and very knowledgeable councils. They definately had my interests in mind, kept representing me the best way to provide me with the outcome I was looking for. I highly recommend Jim & Sydney as your Legal Team.

I hired Walters Gilbreath to help me with a complex interstate child custody case. Jake Gilbreath and Luke Wallace worked diligently to understand my case, consult with my out of state attorney, and recommend a course of action. During the process, Luke stayed in close contact and helped streamline a positive outcome for me. I highly recommend Luke and Jake!

I'm always impressed with the energy and attentiveness this entire firm puts into their work. As a client, I never have to worry about confidentiality in the hands of Walters Gilbreath due to their stalwart professionalism and quality of work. When it comes to family law in Austin, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better and more reliable team.

I grew up in a family of lawyers, lived next door to a judge, and am married to a lawyer. I can say Kurt is one of the good guys. I would highly recommend Kurt Metscher at Walters Gilbreath to provide high quality family legal services. He is intuitive, dedicated, focused on his client's best interests, and quick to read between the lines.

Sheree and Rana were terrific answering all my questions that I had about my children. I’m a woman from a domestic abuse relationship. And Sheree was so easy to talk to. She walked me through the steps I needed to take to keep my family safe. And Rana help answer any questions I had about my kids and my custody battle.

Highly recommended as a top-notch Austin-area family law firm. Ms. Sydney Abdallah helped bring my high-conflict case to a peaceful and reasonable resolution with all of our family's concerns brought to mind for good outcomes for the path ahead. W-G's full staff has been been great as well throughout the full process.

Stephanie Abiassi and Jim Piper were a terrific duo. Whatever money I spent on them was a pittance to how much they obtained for me. On the final fateful day, they toiled tirelessly into the night. The results were electrifying and hugely gratifying. Both walk on water, and I would use them again in a heartbeat. EA

What an amazing law firm. I spoke with Jake during one of their pro Bono sessions (a free consultation) and he advised me as if I was an actual client. He was very honest with his answers and never tried to convince me to hire their firm. For that reason, I’ll definitely be going with them in the near future.

I highly recommend Kurt Metscher at Walters Gilbreath. He has excellent communication skills, the legal knowledge needed to be an effective litigator, and compassion for his clients. He genuinely cares for the well-being of his clients and should be considered a credit to the legal profession.

Karina Rambeau was absolutely amazing and her services are unparalleled! She was kind, extremely informative, patient, and at no point did I feel insecure about her ability to take care of recent family matters. This person is brilliant! I highly highly recommend her to anyone seeking counsel!

Slav and Sydney both are amazing! Slav listens and is honest about expectations. He is confident and direct. I am so grateful to him and his team! I asked for a shark and got the best great white in the ocean. I'd recommend them to anyone needing a professional, strong law team on their side.

As an attorney in Austin, I have recommended opposing parties to Slav for drafting marital agreements, which I believe is a particularly strong skill of his. Additionally, he is a well prepared and respectful advocate in front of the Judges of Central Texas who serves his clients effectively.

I have know Kurt Metscher for 10 years. Kurt is extremely prompt with responses, very patient and applies his life experiences to helping his clients. He is dedicated, and it shows in his passion for tackling problems. Kurt is eager, confident and fair-minded.

My case continues and my faith in your staff continues to get stronger. Thank you for being there on the phone and in person. You all have shown concern and compassion throughout this whole process. You have treated me as one of your own. Thank you to all.

Kurt worked hard on my case and was great at communicating. I was never left in the dark and he did an amazing job getting my divorce process in the most efficient way. I recommend Walter Gilbreath! And want to thank Kurt for doing an exceptional job.
