Susan Myres handled my complex divorce, and her deep experience as a Certified Family Law Specialist was evident. Her knowledge of Harris County courts and collaborative law background were assets. However, while the legal outcome was solid, I sometimes felt out of the loop. Responses to emails could take several days, and explanations of certain billing line items were occasionally unclear. For a lawyer with her recognition and 35+ years in family law, I expected a slightly more proactive communication style. She is undoubtedly skilled, but the client service aspect felt just adequate for the premium rate.
