Coldwell | Bowes, L.L.P.

William T. Lachowsky and the incredible team at Coldwell | Bowles, L.L.P. were wonderful and supportive throughout the entire process. It was as about as painless as it could have been. They always treated me fairly, with respect, without judgement and in a calming manner. I hope I never have to use their services again, but if for some reason I do, William will be my first phone call!

My experience with Delbert "Micah" Royer and Coldwell Bowes LLP's representation in my Texas divorce and post-divorce matters was extremely disappointing and, in my opinion, caused substantial financial harm and emotional distress that continues to this day. The most serious issue involved legal advice regarding court appearances that ultimately resulted in a bench warrant being issued for my arrest. What made the situation even more frustrating was my perception that there was little urgency in correcting a problem that I believe should never have existed in the first place. After I continued pressing for resolution, Mr. Royer ultimately withdrew from my case, citing "case fatigue." I also agreed to settle my divorce in part based on written assurances that post-divorce arbitration regarding significant personal property issues would be completed without additional attorney fees. That never happened. Instead, I have spent years and substantial sums paying new attorneys while continuing to fight for arbitration that I believed had already been secured through the settlement process. In my opinion, the final decree created additional problems rather than resolving them, and I continue to deal with the consequences years later. My opinions are based on contemporaneous emails, text messages, billing records, court filings, and recorded conversations. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this firm for complex divorce matters involving substantial property issues or post-divorce litigation.

After 2-1/2 years of getting nowhere with two previous divorce lawyers in Austin, my ex and I came to a settlement agreement on our own, but could not get help with either of our attorneys to get it finalized. Then, I was given the name of Micah Royer at Coldwell Bowes, so I called and left a message for a consultation. Within minutes, I got a call back from Micah. He asked what was wrong, and after I explained the trouble I was having getting the settlement agreement filed with the court, he said, “Your attorney works for YOU; he should do what YOU want”. That was all I needed to hear. I hired him the next day, and after all I had spent on the previous two attorneys, he said he would work with me to keep his fees down. Within 3 months, he had revised my settlement agreement to get me what I needed, set a mediation with an excellent mediator, got the Settlement Agreement signed, filed it with the Court, and I was finally divorced. He even helped me get the money that my ex owed me into my bank account. Micah is the most HONEST and FAIR Family Attorney in Austin. He does not waste your time and money prolonging your case. So, Give Micah a call. You will not be disappointed.

Great experience working with D. Micah Royer III at Coldwell | Bowes, L.L.P. He knows the law, communicates clearly, and navigates difficult situations with skill and composure. I felt confident having him on my side.

My divorce was extremely difficult. After firing three other attorneys, I finally chose Will to represent me in my case. Will is responsible, professional, and very compassionate. He carefully took notes on every important detail I shared and was always on top of every aspect of my case, which allowed me to truly trust him and his team.

Throughout the entire process, he stood by my side and fought for me. His paralegal, Misti, was also incredibly responsible and stayed on top of everything related to my case.

It was a long journey, but in the end, Will secured a victory for me. After more than two years of battling, I finally feel that justice was served.

I highly recommend Will and his team.
