Client reviews

• March 2026

  “Adrian understood my company better after two weeks than my spouse's expert did after two months. Nothing about the case ever reached my staff.”

  R.T. · Business owner, divorce

• January 2026

  “They were honest that my prenup would probably hold. That was not what I wanted to hear, and it saved me a year of fighting and a lot of money.”

  J.K. · Divorce with a premarital agreement

• November 2025

  “Nadia made the prenup conversation feel normal. My fiancé's lawyer and ours finished six weeks before the wedding, and we never had a tense dinner over it.”

  S.A. · Prenuptial agreement

• September 2025

  “I had no idea what we owned. Owen found two accounts I had never seen and explained every step without making me feel foolish.”

  M.L. · Hidden assets, divorce

• August 2025

  “Expensive, and they told me it would be. The invoices were detailed and I never paid for anything I did not understand.”

  D.P. · Executive compensation, divorce

• June 2025

  “We chose the collaborative route. It was slower than I hoped, but our children never saw a courtroom and we still run the family foundation together.”

  C.H. · Collaborative divorce

• April 2025

  “Teodora asked whether it was safe to leave a voicemail before she asked anything else. That told me everything about how they work.”

  A.N. · Consultation

• February 2025

  “Responsive and careful. Mediation took two sessions instead of the one I had hoped for, but the agreement is clear and nothing has needed fixing since.”

  B.W. · Mediated divorce

Example matters No. 02

• Example outcome · Business valuation

  Settled

  Two valuations, far apart

  The situation

  A spouse's expert valued the family's distribution company at a fraction of what the business had been worth two years earlier.

  What we did

  We hired an independent valuation expert, identified owner expenses that had been treated as business costs, and deposed the other expert on two assumptions.

  How it ended

  The gap between the reports narrowed enough for the case to settle at mediation. Neither side got its opening number.

• Example outcome · Executive compensation

  Settled

  Grants that had not vested yet

  The situation

  An executive held several years of unvested restricted stock, some granted before the marriage and some after.

  What we did

  We apportioned each grant under the Texas time rule and modelled the tax effect of dividing it as it vests against offsetting it now.

  How it ended

  The spouses agreed to divide future tranches as they vest, with the plan administrator's approval written into the decree.

• Example outcome · Hidden assets

  Partly successful

  Transfers to a relative

  The situation

  In the year before filing, money moved from a joint account to an account held by a sibling of our client's spouse.

  What we did

  Subpoenaed bank records and a focused forensic review traced the transfers. We pleaded fraud on the community.

  How it ended

  The court took part of the transferred value into account in the division, though not all of it: some transfers were found to be repayments of a real loan.

• Example outcome · Prenuptial agreement

  Not successful

  A challenge that did not succeed

  The situation

  Our client asked us to set aside a premarital agreement, saying she had signed it under pressure shortly before the wedding.

  What we did

  We told her at the start that the odds were against her: she had her own lawyer, and the disclosure schedules were complete. She chose to proceed.

  How it ended

  The court enforced the agreement. We include this matter because candour about weak positions is part of the job.
