About

I am board certified in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and have been practicing family law in South Central Texas since 1993, with offices in San Marcos and San Antonio, and previously in Gonzales, Lockhart and Seguin as well.I grew up in Austin and attended public schools there from elementary school to high school, returning to get my law degree from the University of Texas in 1992.  I am an avid Longhorn and Spurs fan, and enjoy outdoor activities in Central and South Texas such as swimming, hiking, biking, and riding waves at Port Aransas and South Padre.  My wife Lesli (from Seguin) and I were married in 2007 after meeting at the Texas Capitol and I have three children.  I attend St. Mark's Episcopal Church in San Marcos where I am currently a member of the vestry and Senior Warden and donate time and money to the Hays/Caldwell Women's Shelter and Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid.

Mr. Friedman handled an embarrassing situation in San Antoino for me quickly and with better than expected results at a reasonable price.

As a licensed attorney for 30 years, when it came time to seek an attorney to represent me in my divorce, I knew exactly what I needed. I wanted someone who was board certified in family law, respected by the local judiciary and legal community, and would be a fierce advocate. I found all this, and more, in Ivan Friedman. Mr. Friedman was always responsive to my many questions and concerns. He proved, during an arduous eight-hour mediation, to be an effective and sensitive negotiator. His billing was fair and cost-effective. As for his staff, I always received courteous and prompt responses. I highly endorse Ivan Friedman.

Ivan was great in our adoption. From day one he was available and responsive. He made us feel valued and was very efficient and knowledgable. He was also very friendly and professional. We are grateful to him for all he's done and would highly recommend him.

Mr. Ivan Friedman is professional, honest and approachable. He granted my initial consultation quickly and was more concerned about my well-being than getting his retainer. He thoughtfully answered my questions and presented me with sound options that were understandable and realistic. I retained him because he is brilliant, has integrity and his peers in the legal community hold him in high esteem. I absolutely recommend him to anyone burdened with a family law matter.
