Batrice Law Firm

Rang to schedule an appointment with this law firm and basically got shut down by the receptionist. She put me on hold saying she was going to «write this all down» and came back and told me they could not represent my case. I wasn’t aware she was relating case to the «team» there instead of just writing it down as she claimed. Very irritating as I wanted to get some advice about another issue as well but never even got the chance to discuss that. I was willing to pay for some advice on the matter but, again, getting shut down by a receptionist left a bad taste in my mouth and I won’t be using this law firm for anything… ever.

Paul firm, was and will be one of the best Lawyers firm a have ever visit, My case was handle correctly and I got what I deserve, thanks Paul for your kindness, loyalty, toughness handling my case, you are a great Lawyer, I will recommended to all My employees and friends, take care!

Paul provided very sound advice on how to proceed with my botched negotiations with an insurance company about an auto accident I was involved in (I was rear ended). I made every mistake possible dealing with the insurance company by trying to be fair with the situation. No joke — if you are injured at all call an attorney. The insurance company is not your advocate.
Needless to say I have put Paul’s contact info in my phone and my wife’s phone.

So the lovely city of Austin decided to cite my bar (me) for a sound ordinance violation (mind you we have an outdoor music venue permit). Paul personally handled my case and was ready to take it all the way to trial. He was able to get my ticket dismissed the first time around. Paul and his people kept me informed and assured throughout the whole process. I have dozens of friends that have used Paul over the years and he definitely lived up to his reputation. I’m glad to have him in my corner, hopefully I don’t have to use him too often!

Courteous and attentive. I have used the Batrice Law Firm on several occasions and on a variety of cases. What keeps me coming back is his straight forward and logical solution with different options on how to handle each situation. I need to be informed and comfortable with my legal decisions and the Batrice Law Firm does that. If you are in the need for legal representation I highly recommend you consult with them.

Paul was referred to me when I needed some help with a legal issue in 2013. I have only good things to say about him and his team from my experience. My case dragged on for 14 months (no fault of Paul’s!) and he was with me every step of the way. He personally appeared at all 6 court settings. He was always punctual and professional and gave solid, well-​reasoned advice each step of the way. His support staff was also very professional, available, and helpful throughout the process. Paul’s office notified me of each court setting well in advance and kept me apprised of what to expect at each setting.
In the end, Paul’s hard work paid off and my case was dismissed. Should I ever find myself in need of an attorney again, I know who I will be calling. I would highly recommend Paul Batrice to any friend in need of a solid criminal or personal injury attorney.

I contact this law firm after looking at all of the reviews to help with a legal matter with my boyfriend. I found them to be nothing but a waste of time. I went to the office and sat there in their conference room for 15 minutes before getting a call from his legal assistant asking where I was… When she finally came it was like we had never spoken before, she had no idea what was going on.
I finally sat with Mr. Batrice and just felt like all he wanted was my money. He looked at the case and said I would need to see if I could get anyone to help me to get me as much money as I could for what we needed help with… I have plenty of money but I didn’t want to divulge him with that information since it seemed to be all he was after.
He told me he would go and meet with my boyfriend directly after the weekend… he never showed! Which is probably a blessing because I got a very bad feeling about if I had to hire this guy.
Luckily I took other people’s advice and went to a fellow attorney Amber Vasquez… she not only CARED about my boyfriend, but she went above and beyond to help and get an outcome that we could have only dreamed of. All at a reasonable price.
My advice would be unless you are willing to blow all your money on this guy do some actual investigating and find a lawyer who will actually care about the case and not about filling their pockets.

I retained Paul Batrice back in October of 2012 to help me deal with a legal matter that I don’t care to share with any of you, thank you very much… let’s just say many of us have been there! I was very impressed with how thorough Paul was and his paralegal Paula, as well– they kept me informed every step of the way, Paul personally showed up at all of my court dates, I received immediate responses to voicemails and emails, etc… Here I sit today with a dismissal (!!!) of the charges that were brought against me and dealing with only very minor repercussions of the reduced charge which will disappear before too much time has passed.
Long story short– Paul and his team got me the best possible outcome that I or anyone could have hoped for. I’ve had friends in the same situation as I got myself into last year and they didn’t fare NEARLY as well as I did, nor did their lawyers give them nearly the dedication or thoroughness that I saw with Paul. I would highly recommend Paul Batrice for any of your legal needs!

I contacted Paul because of recommendations from friends of mine. After being struck by a drunk driver while riding my bicycle I had just come home from surgery and he took the time to meet with me right away. Paul Batrice will make you feel at ease because he is on the case (pun intended). He dealt with my situation with the person’s insurance and it was all settled in less than 3 months.
This review is short and sweet because what you need to know is that you will be taken care of. My life was able to move forward because of his firm’s quick action.
He has done a wonderfully by my friend’s also, and that’s why I called. You should too if the situation arises.

Paul, Is the best. He sets your expectations right and does exactly what he says. Highly recommend him!

Paul Batrice has represented me/​my husband for 2 cases now and he is extremely professional and the kind of lawyer who makes you feel at ease regardless of your situation. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends, Unilocalers!!! If you want a good guy who is very sure of himself, he’s your man.

I know everybody likes to hate on lawyers, but when you are on the receiving end of a legal threat in a matter on which you are completely in the right, a good legal opinion is like a hug from your dad. It is tremendously comforting, and re-​invigorates you with confidence to stand tall again.
So far this is my whole story with Paul but barring misfortune, it’s enough for me to give him a solid endorsement:
Long story short, someone got mad at an honest statement I made, and implied he was going to sue me.
I don’t have anything against the guy (even now) but I don’t want to get in legal trouble, so I quickly tried to contact my «regular» lawyer. I had problems contacting him, so out of a sense of urgent desire for a legal opinion, I looked Paul up on Unilocal.He’s offering a free consultation, so how could I go wrong?
I was able to talk to him promptly, and he told me in an official legal capacity, the same thing I felt already. Stating true facts and posting opinions is not grounds for any kind of legal action. Paul used more colorful and evocative terms – he is very confident as well as professional – but the communication was clear and the reassurance was and is incredibly comforting.
I got in touch with my regular lawyer, and he backed up the same thing I heard first from Paul. So far that’s the only experience I have with Paul, but it’s (so far) a very positive one.
If you are on the wrong end of the law, all I can recommend for you is «get right.» But if you know you’re in the right or are just unsure on a matter, call this guy and get your free consult. You can get one professional’s legal advice for no charge, and if you don’t agree with him or want a second opinion, you’ve spent nothing. My guess is you’ll be glad of it.

My wife convinced me to sell my bicycle because cycling is too dangerous. So I sold it on eBay, boxed it up and while crossing the street to the UPS store was hit by a driver. He did not see me or the giant boxed-​up bicycle because he was on his phone. It wasn’t until I hit his windshield that he actually saw me.
Thankfully, I was right in front of the hospital! But unfortunately this driver had Allstate insurance which refuses to pay for anything, that is until Paul forces them to!
Paul was amazing! Years ago I was in an auto accident and my experience dealing with the insurance company was really traumatic. This time I didn’t speak to one insurance agent. Paul Batrice took care of everything. I was able to get the medical attention I needed without worrying about how much it was going to cost. I paid nothing out-​of-​pocket. Paul and his paralegal, Misty, handled everything for me in a timely and professional manner.
I went to his office once to meet and hire him and only one other time yesterday when I went to collect the settlement check.
If you are in an auto accident, call Paul immediately. Leave it to the professionals and get on with your life. Thank you, Paul and Misty for helping Allstate do the right thing ;)

The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because Paul Batrice wasn’t able to represents us at the time. However he took time out to talk my husband, give us guidance and that helped us get a favorable outcome. He didn’t have to see us or help us, but he did. If I ever needed a non-​criminal attorney again I’d use this guy.

I recently went back to Paul to get my record expunged. Service was great as usual. MAKE SURE to get your expunged after all is said and done. Its definitely worth the money!

Even though Paul Beatrice didn’t directly represent me, he indirectly made my life much, much better.
My girlfriend was dealing with a legal issue with a prior lawyer, and all I’d hear every day when asking how her day went was about how inept her prior lawyer was, how his interests weren’t aligned with hers, and how unprofessional he was. In short, the prior lawyer didn’t really care about her case. As you can imagine, this had the effect of not putting me in the best mood either.
At any rate, Paul happened to be in the courtroom when one of these Kafka’esque moments was going down and later approached my girlfriend saying he can help. My girlfriend is pretty good at reading people, and as much as a lawyer doing this might seem scummy, the girlfriend sensed that Paul had an aura emanating both confidence and friendliness. Luckily, this actually turned out to be the case.
Paul possessed the utmost in professionalism, was affordable, made her feel at ease about her case, and, most importantly, actually got her legal issue handled and rectified. The last point can’t be emphasized enough — he gets things done. The special lady friend has worked in the legal field before and has a good barometer for these things, and she can’t recommend Paul and his legal services enough.
Ever since Paul’s legal services have been engaged and afterwards (you know, him actually solving the case quickly and no more work needed to be done), the girlfriend actually seems… nicer and much lighter on her feet, a burden having been lifted from her shoulders. And, consequently, my life has turned out for the better as well, getting to hear about the puppies she saw on the street instead of how crummy her prior lawyer was.
So yeah. Need legal services? Paul is your go-​to person for this stuff.

I presented my case to Paul after having spoken to multiple other lawyers. The other lawyers I had spoken to left me feeling like they were going to take me for a ride.
Paul is high energy, very sure of himself, and he keeps his word (all positive attributed to have in your lawyer). After handing my case over to Paul, he and his staff kept everything on track and kept me updated with any new changes. Every time I would call the office I would get a prompt response from either Paul or his office staff. I was pleasantly surprised by how honest and fair Paul was with me… having been skeptical of lawyers prior to this experience. He was always courteous, respectful, and concise. I highly recommend you call Paul for any legal matter you may have (although DUI and personal injury are his specialties). Thanks to both Paul and Misty for all their help, it feels great to have final resolution to a legal matter that had hung around my life for about a year.

I literally owe my life to the Batrice Law Firm. Paul Batrice is professional, knowledgeable, experienced and along with his staff will go to fight for you tooth and nail. Until yesterday I had a DWI charge that involved having a minor under 14 in the vehicle. A felony charge that had been haunting me for last year and a half. In the verge of losing my job, possible custody of my daughter, jail time, fines, surcharges, suspension of license and not to mention the burden of being convicted as a felon for the rest of my life; Paul Batrice and his law firm came through for me and i was able to settle out of court with a misdemeanor similar to a traffic ticket! This meant no felony, no jail, no fines, no surcharges, no loss of license, no probation and best of all no fear of loosing my daughter and keeping my job. Paul Batrice’s hard work, dedication and commitment to my case uncovered every detail which gave my defense the proof that ultimately led to a dismissal.
I highly recommend his services. Paul kept me involved every step of the way. His staff always kind and courteous. And I would suggest you save his number and review his site which has information you must know should you ever get yourself in a situation that involves any alcohol and vehicle related charge. Obviously I don’t wish a scenario like mine to anyone; But should you or anyone you know be in this type of situation do yourself a favor and call the Batrice Law Firm.

On the way to a meeting at the Spiderhouse. BLAMMO! Ouch. Torn tendons and ligaments? How’s that possible. Well… it is! I tried to hash it out with the insurance agents at first, and I was definitely reluctant to hire a lawyer (not wanting to play the «everyone sues now» game), but after the party at fault’s insurance began giving me the runaround, I quickly realized I needed to do so.
I have nothing but good things to say about this law firm. Paul’s a nice guy, and it shows that he’s not a fan of the insurance companies.
He kept me informed during the year long process, and when I wasn’t able to reach him I was always able to get information from his assistants. He set me up with the MRI service to get my hands and arms checked out, found stuff people had missed and developed an even stronger case. So yeah, I’d say he was generally on the ball.
So for all you Breaking Bad watchers out there… «Better Call Paul!»
