Recognized in Best Lawyers since 2024
Scott Wilson
I hired Stephen DePaul for a complex custody modification case, and he demonstrated a strong understanding of family law given his recognition by Best Lawyers. His knowledge of Texas family law was evident, and he clearly outlined my options. However, communication could have been more proactive. There were times when I had to follow up to get updates, and responses were sometimes delayed. While the outcome was fair, the process felt slower than expected. I appreciated his attention to detail in the court documents, but responsiveness is an area where he could improve. Overall, he’s competent, but I expected a more personalized experience given his experience.
