Client’s testimonials
Kim Cavanaugh-Lowe2025-06-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In my humble opinion, Laura is absolutely the best lawyer to work with!! Being an out-of-state client, I interviewed a handful of probate/estate lawyers over the phone and found them to be knowledgeable, but more robotic in their process. I felt that they were just paper-pushers looking for a check. The first conversation I had w/ Laura was refreshing in that she was friendly, sharp, and immediately made me feel like I could trust her w/ my Uncle's estate right from the start. I felt confident w/ Laura's wisdom and didn't feel rushed to make a decision. It didn't prove me wrong either, as she was insightful and thorough throughout the entire process w/ a mission to provide the utmost professional representation that I could have ever asked for. Her response time is almost immediate and she quickly completes each step of the process w/ urgency, while consistently updating you along the ENTIRE way. I would HIGHLY recommend Laura for your probate/estate needs. I just wish ALL lawyers were like her!! Juan Moreno2025-06-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. very helpful and stayed in touch with what was happening. I will seek her help in the future when needed. Jennifer perales2025-05-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Law Office of Laura Vale, PLLC was the best decision I made during the hardest part of my life. My mother passed away and I desperately needed a Probate lawyer to help me understand what steps to take to move property to my name. Laura Vale’s professionalism and kindness made me feel confident that what I needed would get done the right way. All my needs were accomplished quickly and with the upmost of importance. Carol friedeck2025-04-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I discovered Laura Vale, attorney, from a website search. I wanted someone local that would take my call quickly and she fit the bill. She was energetic, kind, and made us feel very comfortable as She created, for my elderly father, a will, power of attorney, & DNR. Her rate was quite reasonable and we never felt rushed as she explained everything. Definitely 5 stars. Hook ‘em horns! Abby2025-03-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura is a total pro. She stepped in to help my family with a probate matter when a different lawyer was unable to handle the administrative complexity of our case. She treated us with patience and kindness throughout our time working with her. Another major plus to working with Laura is that she does her best to make the process convenient for her clients. We don’t live in the same city, but she was able to assist us remotely. Robert loughridge2025-02-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was very pleased with the will that Ms. Vale did for me. She was very thorough and left nothing to question. I would recommend her for your estate planning or family law needs! 5 STARS Sally Steiner2025-01-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura made a very difficult process seem easy. I was on my third lawyer over a year and a half period. Laura got to work and had the guardianship of my disabled son completed in a matter of a few months. She was kind, informative and professional. I will and would trust her with future legal services. Thank you so much. Ashley Bruno2025-01-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Laura is an outstanding attorney! She took the time to thoroughly explain every detail, guiding me through the probate process and helping me make the best estate planning decisions for my family. Her warm and bubbly personality made the experience enjoyable—I stayed engaged the entire time! I highly recommend her to all my friends and family. Charles Joseph2024-11-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anyone who has lost a love one, my condolences. It can be a very busy and difficult time. Especially if you're, like myself it just seemed to happen all at the wrong moment. I was totally unprepared and left with much to do. I firstly needed to take care of all the things required for a love one that is no longer here in Texas and that included my mother's estate and here in Texas there is much to do in a short time. I reached out to Attorney Ms. Laura Vale, she was quick and efficient, besides that I was a bit stressed at getting things accomplished, so I could fulfill my mother's wishes. Ms.Laura was able to streamline everything to the court and process my SMALL ESTATE AFFIDAVIT. Her fees were upfront and reasonable with no hidden cost. She was always available, not her paralegal, or secretary answering questions. Questions come up with legal proceedings and businesses; like banks. Mom did not have a written WILL. Ms. Laura is a professional attorney with her help, I was able excute my mother's Estate and tie up the lose ends, receiving her death certificate, so that I could have her removed from the Bexar Medical Examiners office to the funeral home. I was able to access funds that were in my mother's bank account without a long drawn out hassle. This really made the burden a lot easier to bear. I am so grateful for finding such a kind, caring, and professional person in my time of need. I would highly recommend anyone to give her your time. My situation was very difficult, as I work nights. She went right to work to assist me to make things right. She is a lawyer, she gets busy, she will get back to you as soon as possible. She was able to use many lines of communication to keep me posted, and updated. She is a realistiic, fair and positive person who does not disappoint, she covered all the bases. I would Highly recommend her services to anyone experiencing a loss at this time in their life. I trusted and appreciated her services. One of the best client attorney experience I have had in Texas and definitely her fees were fair and spot on. With her in your corner, you will have a disponible attorney that is professional, knowledgeable, and reachable for follow-up questions.. Thank you again.
