Chase Williams
Rachel Aguilar is the best choice
Rachel Aguilar is the best possible choice for a potentially high-conflict divorce because she will ensure that you are protected, safe, and seen throughout the entire process. She understands the tactics that a manipulative spouse may use to intimidate you into complying with their outlandish demands and ensures that you receive exactly what you need to not only survive when it’s over—but thrive. Her team keeps you posted on all the updates to your case and is always available for phone calls. She is very knowledgeable about the Brazoria County system and knows how to bring about a timely resolution so that you are not buried in debt, court dates, and paperwork. She successfully sought to protect me in a domestic abuse situation, and didn’t attempt to financially exploit the situation, but rather worked very hard to get me out and get me free. I highly recommend her to anyone leaving an abusive spouse.
Janet Kelly
I would recommend them and use them again

Relax, Go Home and Enjoy
Jeff came highly recommended to us by a trusted family friend, and I'm so glad we received that recommendation. Jeff has vast experience in multiple areas of the justice system, as a prosecutor and judge, in addition to being a defense attorney. He is respected by his peers, and it clearly shows. He starts dealing immediately after the docket is called and he gets answers within minutes. When he says 'relax, go home and enjoy the family, we'll take care of everything' he means it!

This Firm Is Not the Usual Firm
Mr. Gilbert and his staff (especially Ms. Darla and Ms. Jamie) have been extremely helpful with our family law situation. They were quick to respond to all our questions and concerns. After discussions with Mr. Gilbert, he gave us recommendations that we could do on our own and to contact him in the future if something else transpired. That's not the usual response of an attorney, but this firm is not the usual firm; it's exceptional. Thank you for all of your guidance!
C Golden

We cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond in every way possible. Their patience, understanding, and expertise have made all the difference for us.
To Mr. Gilbert, Suzanna, and the entire team, we are eternally grateful for everything you have done for us. Thank you for standing by our side and helping us navigate through it all. Your impact on our lives will never be forgotten.

Alyssa Armstrong
They definitely had my back.
I came to the Jeff Gilbert Law Office in a crisis. It was a crisis within a crisis, so I appreciated the fact that I was heard and seen by Jeff and Jamie, and that they were fair with me. An attorney once told me that a good paralegal makes all the difference, and as far as I can see that holds true. Jamie handled my case with the utmost care and compassion, and she made it much easier to get through a tough situation. Suzanna came onto my case with experience from working different areas of the legal system in Florida—and she was able to use that perspective to help get the best possible outcome under the circumstances. They definitely had my back. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Exceeded Expectations in Crisis
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Suzanna Johnson and the entire staff at Jeff Gilbert Law Office in Angleton, TX. Suzanna and her team stepped in during one of the most challenging times in my life—a crisis within a crisis—and handled my case with incredible care and dignity.
When the situation became difficult, they didn’t just do their job—they went above and beyond to ensure my family and I got the support and resolution we desperately needed. Their professionalism, compassion, and dedication were evident in every interaction, and I always felt like they genuinely cared about my case and my well-being.
If you’re looking for a team that will fight for you and treat you with respect and kindness, look no further. I am so grateful for all they’ve done, and I highly recommend Suzanna and the entire Jeff Gilbert Law Office team.

She Helped Us Keep Our Heritage
I worked with Dennisse Rivera-Eaves for estate planning. I can't sing her praises louder. There aren't sufficient words for the level of professionalism and ease of accomplishing the task at hand. As with the nature of most businesses, I tend to enter any new territory with hesitancy. I did not feel as though she felt her time with me was an inconvenience, and I have the utmost confidence in her ability to legally execute the documents so my loved one will be protected by the legal system when the time to move on comes. She was able to consult with me and begin the process for full estate planning from starting with a consultation to complete finalization, including drafting a Last Will and Testament, Medical and Statutory POA, as well as a few other necessary legal documents in less than a week. This also included her traveling to a hospital and documenting the grantor was of sound mind, as well as a video recording of the entire signing ceremony in the event his will is ever contested in a court of law. Time was an unfortunate factor in our case due to other family attempting to gain what is not rightfully theirs, but she was more than flexible. I felt I could be fully honest, and we spoke as though we had known each other for years. She treated my loved one with respect rather than an elderly person on hospice. He trusts her as well. She will continue to receive referrals on my behalf as more and more of my generation will be facing what I am now. She really has a heart of gold and was honest in my future endeavors to seek legal counsel regarding newfound information about my loved one's siblings and discrepancies in asset distribution and how to correct it. Although probate litigation is not her specialty, she was kind enough to take her own time to point me in the direction. Our entire process from start to finish was about a week. She fully understood if we couldn't get this fully completed, he and all subsequent heirs would lose something passed down through five generations of blood and would be handed down again to the 6th and 7th given the correct legal documentation. She was able to help preserve our deep-rooted connection to the land where a town was founded and still functions all these years later. We stood to lose the small grip we had. It's hard enough to face saying goodbye to a loved one. It's even harder to try to be there as they cross the bridge and try to maintain a balance as you round up another person's entire life affairs. Then sprinkle a ton of backstabbing by siblings and other family while they foam at the mouth so they can contest a will and get what they want. It's been heartbreaking. Dennisse and her love for protecting those that can't protect themselves did so much more than draw up some legal documents for me and all future generations here and those that will come. She helped us keep our heritage. I am forever grateful for her blatant honesty and moral business practices.

The divorce process length varies. If uncontested, it may take a few months. Contested divorces, involving disputes, can take longer, sometimes over a year.
How is child custody determined in a divorce?
Child custody is determined based on the child's best interests, considering factors like the child's age, health, emotional ties, the parents' lifestyle, and the child's preference, if they're old enough.
What is spousal support or alimony?
Spousal support, or alimony, is financial assistance awarded to a spouse post-divorce. The amount and duration depend on factors like length of marriage, financial condition, and earning potential.
What if my spouse does not want a divorce?
If your spouse does not want a divorce, you can still file. The court will likely have a hearing, but a divorce can be granted even without mutual agreement if the marriage is irretrievably broken.
