Shannon, Dena, and Lauren took amazing care of me and my family during a situation that could have been extremely difficult and painful. Unlike my experiences with other law firms, they were excellent and highly professional. They went out of their way to understand what we were wanting to accomplish and walked me step by step through everything. Communication was clear and timely, execution was outstanding, and billing was reasonable and transparent. I highly recommend this firm! They made me feel, and showed through their actions, that our case was a top priority. They delivered in record time. I cannot express the depth of my appreciation for all of their support.

Shannon Boudreaux is not only well versed in family law, but she genuinely cares about you as a client. Shannon and her team guided me through a very tough and emotional time in my life. I will forever be grateful to Shannon. Dena and Lauren how they handled my divorce. I always felt they were looking out for my best interest.

I would definitely recommend and use their services again. They are very professional, the communication was excellent. We lined up my request and I was given a realistic and accurate plan. My expectations were definitely managed well. The information I received was explained in terms that I could understand. I dont know legal jargon, the system is still very foreign to me, which is why I felt that I needed an attorney. Never go into battle blind and unprepared. I was prepared and equipped. Im extremely happy with the way my case was handled. 10/10

I liked being able to text for information - I do not like to talk on the phone. It was easy setting up the consultation and I zoom met with Shannon and she was very nice, informative and even gave me cheaper avenues. Only spent 30 minutes and she refunded 1/2 of my fee. Lauren emailed all the forms within 24 hours. Everything was done in the timely manner that was quoted. I ended up going with someone else who was a friend of a friend and pennies less. I would definitely refer others to Boudreaux because of their professionalism, upfront attitude and honestly. Thanks. God bless

Attorney Shannon Boudreaux, I would secure her services again and again. She was knowledgeable and made me feel so at ease. A few things to think about as a client:
1. Is your lawyer prepared? Do they know case law and are they spending time thoroughly reviewing materials to help you?
2. Does your attorney truly listen to your needs and understand any constraints (financial, family, mental)?
3. Does your attorney understand when you need to be updated? (send summary updates when needed, because every communication is billed).
4. Is your attorney honest with you about pros and cons? No lawyer should ever make a guarantee about the outcome of a case. They can only prepare and present facts, laws, and your side of the story.
Shannon Boudreaux did all of the above and more and I am very thankful that we partnered during my case.

I am extremely happy with the service and personal care I received from Shannon, Dena, and Lauren. This is the team you want to have your back and help you navigate the worst situation most people face in their life. They were all extremely supportive and thorough while still being great people. Shannon is the most caring attorney, if you are looking for someone to give you straight answers and advise you in your best interest look no further.

Please use this review as the sign you need to hire them as your attorneys.
I was not aware of how difficult it was going to be for me to get divorced and I never thought that I was going to need a lawyer, after countless nights of research for the best law firm in Houston I decided to call Boudreaux | Hunter & Associates; I was greeted and helped by Lauren, her voice and hospitable demeanor made me feel so comfortable, she answered my initial 101 questions and helped me set up an initial appointment over the phone with Shannon, after a very short conversation I knew that they were "the ones" I needed by my side.
For X&Y reasons a few months went by and finally set up an appointment in person to review the case; I was able to meet Shannon, Dena, and Lauren and the good "vibes" were definitely there.
I received some paperwork to fill out, which I did the same day and they literally started the process the next day.
After a few phone calls, countless of emails with all of my questions and concerns, and a few days that had to pass because that's how law works, I can finally say that I am divorced in the most fastest, painless and amicable way possible.
I could have not chosen a better law firm to represent me and my interests.
I will be forever grateful with the entire firm but specially Shannon, Dena and Lauren who are the ones that worked directly with me for making such a difficult process a piece of cake.

I went through a really challenging case this past summer and Marie Garcia helped me every step of the way. I was never left in the dark and she had a very open line of communication especially when I was overwhelmed and needed help understanding the lingo. Marie always had my best interest in mind and let me know what was realistically possible and never forced me to do anything I didnt want to do. If I was ever to need a family lawyer again I would definitely use this firm again. I recommend them to anyone having a hard time with a tough case.
