Lone Star Legal Aid

These lawyers worked with me during my eviction process , but the thing about it , they just weren't trying to get my eviction throwed out ,they tried to help me . They pointed me in the right direction and even tried to help my landlords get paid ,because I knew they deserve payment, but they failed to listen to reason. By doing so they let them know who they were : They were attorneys representing the President of the United States. They were the most professional and the most efficient attorneys and made me proud and thankful of being a citizen of The United States of America.

Prompt professional courteous very knowledgeable and very helpful! My attorney was wonderful I knew exactly what he was talking about I am forever indebted to these people because for the moment they help me save my home from a bully landlord who thought he was above the law. So very grateful

They were extremely helpful. I was referred to an attorney who took my case pro bono and walked me through the whole process. 5*****

They where very helpful with all my questions. The lady I talked to was so nice and walked me through everything I need to know.

They will help with wills ,land issues ect non-criminal cases

Attorney alex helped me get my eviction dismissed

I was in a very dark place with no known direction to go..I was refered to them from a person at the courthouse with a court date coming up. no one told me my attorney had passed away. No one would communicate with me. the new att. said "gives up your gonna lose anyway ànd your former attorney lied to you ". I left more freaked then ever when I called legal aid. I explained everything to the attorney that called from legal aid. And he gave me sound advice that I followed. And I worked out great. While I am still with this new guy . I used the advice from the legal aid and it worked ok out . The new attorney now has a better attitude with me.. I would not have gotten to this point had I not called them. My case is still ongoing. But I would have given up had I not called and followed there advice. I've refered them to several people. And hopefully will never have to use them again. But I know that if I do need them , I know I can trust there advice.. and just want to end with this.. the term aid,... Means "to help or assist someone". Does not mean " let me complain and they do all the work for you while you sit and whine... I personally thank them for being there and pray everyday my case is done soon and to my favor. But what ever direction It goes. It would have been worse with out there assistance..

My mom and I applied twice. No help. No call backs. No Answering the phone. No communication. No Solution. Nothing.

A law firm of overworked and underpaid attorneys by the government that will not go above and beyond their funding- even in unique case circumstances. They cover very general cases. You will be treated like a number. If you don't mind having an attorney treat your case with minimal concern and investment, this is the right place. Their goal: to do the bare minimum in each case. The fact that I was continually referred to them by all local community support centers in place in my unique and tough circumstance is disheartening for the financially disadvantaged. I had to continually follow up with assistants, never had a chance to have any of my supreme concerns about my case addressed with attorneys until the business day before their representation in court. All of my concerns ultimately discarded. None of my concerns were addressed in my unique case and I was constantly advised to settle for less than my fair rights as a consumer in an eviction case. I didn't receive fair representation- as a mother with multiple children. I was misrepresented by this firm four times... My case mishandled which ultimately equated to an unfair eviction. There has to be a better way. I would not recommend their services to anyone if they're looking to overstand their experience and rights from the position of a consumer. If there is no other alternative for legal representation, I hope another option comes soon. Best wishes to anyone else that comes their way.

This place is completely useless. I had to submit my application paperwork twice bc they said it was not received after 4 months of waiting for a response. I know it was delivered the first & second attempt bc I paid for post office to notify me of both deliveries. Multiple people I know has stated that they applied & were denied assistance. They advised me not to waste my time. I was warned multiple times but applied anyway. I ultimately learned that I wasted my time & was denied too. Thanks for absolutely nothing.

They turned down aid for my mother and her divorce because she, "made too much money". She works at a clothing store making $300 a week and barely has enough to live on her own; so where is all this money she supposedly has?!? I was completely speechless when she told me why they denied her. This place is a scam! I thought this was going to be the answer to a really rough time in my mom's life and mine as she moves onto a better life but it wasn't.

I have been helping her pay the rent and other bills on top of the $2000 she needed to get a lawyer to start the process, there will be more for that.

Apparently they only have a lawyer for one type of case. Should be stated on their website. Don't waste your time unless you're dealing with evictions.

These people are falsely pretending to help people. They never offer any assistance. I don't see how they are still in business. This is the only legal aid office in Texas that I came acroac who turns you away with no help. Don't waste your time.

When I called they were rude. And said they ONLY handle domestic violence cases because they only have one lawyer! Really? How are low income families suppose to get help with other issues if you are the only legal aid office for our county! What a joke

Called to get help and was told that that only handle civil cases what is low income people to do I guess just throw up our hands and hope for the best I swear if I could ever win the lottery I would move more and likely out of Texas for good

I’ve been calling for the last 3 business days straight.....ALL DAY LONG....and can’t get through or past the receptionist...it just rings and rings and rings....and if you chose to apply for legal aid it says the times are from 8:30-2:30 Monday-Thursday and it’s after hours while I’ve been calling since 8:47a and it is now almost 11:00a.....how in the hell are they the only office that serves east Texas....Feeling very disheartened as if my uphill climb isn’t hard enough already....

Tyler Lone Star Legal Aide hasn't called us back and we been there many times to chk up and still they NOT trying to help.

Period!

Phone keeps hanging up on me before it transfers me. How am I suppose to get in contact with yall????

Very insensitive to battered women and children ..do not recommend ..animals have more right.
