Working with a law firm for divorce requires selecting a specialized family law attorney who aligns with your case type— communication, and local court knowledge. Successful experiences rely on being honest, organized. And I can truly tell everyone that my experience with HerBig Law Firm has opened my eyes. John and Brandie have guided me through a very difficult, conniving and manipulating relationship. I would recommend them to anybody who’s in a very difficult, uncomfortable, nasty relationship.

John, Brandi, Amber, and Trish has been absolutely amazing in assisting me in getting my family law case moved from Dallas County to Montgomery County Texas.
They were very responsive and respectful when the opposing party and opposing counsel attempted to throw up roadblocks to the process. And, through it all they kept everything and everyone in check in order to complete what should have been a "Mandatory" case transfer without any unnecessary issues or drama from the start.
I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs an awesome Family Law representing them!
