Matt and Tina at Skillern law firm are 2 of the best lawyers in Fort bend County and Greater houston area. Matt and Tina were able to defend false allegations against me from my previous spouse which could have resulted in my children being taken away from me. Matt was able to win me 50-50 custody and grant child support in the form of self supporting my children when in my custody. This is what I wanted and prayed for. Matt and Tina are a team by your side, I highly recommend them for anyone going through a divorce with an unreasonable spouse.

Long to short - my divorce case is a mix of international + US assets, immigration issues and custody issue. As a wife, I am making more income than my ex-husband, hence the case is really coming down to protecting my own assets & all of my pension portfolios. As well as my work permit was unfortunately dependent on his visa. After spending sometimes interview 10 top family law firms in Houston, it was not long decision to decide to hire Matthew and his Skillern firm to work on my divorce case from day 0 to finish. Matthew is a top notch lawyer - highly experiences - Ethics - and Strategic. He is not the most easiest lawyer to work with if you are not a good listener (an engineer liked me!) but I learn to trust him on the road. From the start of the case thru the end of mediation, I understand that to be able to lead and win the case, I need a very experience lawyer who understand what and when to negotiate. He gives me the realistic expectation for general divorce case - there is no winner & best practice is to loose minimum. The right timing and the right number in the negotiation process could only be accepted if you have the very experiences lawyer who knows this art. I was always very emotional during the process. Without having the high quality lawyer liked Matthew, my mediation would not come out to be successful on my side. My assets & my daughter assets and some key features on the custody are well protected for today and for her future. Note that his hour rate can be pretty high for some clients but when I calculate my time spending with him, the time to close my case, the lawyer fee and the out come that I have, the returns of this investment turns out to be very efficient. I highly recommend Matthew and his team at Skillern law firm.

The only reason i have an opportunity to be a father to my infant daughter is because of skillern firm. The skillern firm was my shining light thru a very dark time during my divorce. From the very moment i walked in for a consultation every person of the firm cared about my case. From the receptionist to para legals everyone knew all the details about my case. My now ex wife was attempting to permanently remove our new born from usa to a third world country. John Schmude, Matt Skillern, and Alexandia Gwyn assured me that they will do everything in their power to make sure that my daughter will remain in the united states. The skillern firm put in strong provisions in making sure my daughter will remain int the united states. They contacted all the proper authorities including the state department in preventing international child abduction. From mediation to trial they were there all along making sure my daughter has a bright future in United states. Skillern firm has very professional and experienced professionals working on all cases. I will always be grateful and in debt to the skillern firm. Skillern firm has saved my daughter’s life and above all has given me an opportunity to be a father to my daughter with sole custody. Oneday in the future i will tell my daughter all about how she was saved and the names of the people who made sure she stayed in the United States.

Matt Skillern and his team helped me gain primary custody of my 12-month daughter through incredible effort, sharp legal knowledge and skill, and compassion for justice. In the beginning I felt lost, betrayed, and scared. I didn’t know who I could trust but when I met Matt, I knew I wanted him to represent me because he is honest and sincere. He truly cares about you and your family. He has the vision the see the bigger picture and prepares you for realistic outcomes. Inside the courtroom Matt is relentless. He commands the room and is detail oriented. He does not back down and strategically attacks arguments. He will fight for your rights and for justice to be served. Looking back, I appreciated the personal stories and anecdotes Matt shared with me regarding obstacles in marriage or raising kids. He helped me grow into a better parent and person. I cannot say enough about the Skillen law firm. They have stood by my side through multiple hearings that crossed state lines and purposeful delays by the opposing side. Matt is not only the best lawyer in Houston but perhaps more importantly he is a compassionate, honest, and wonderful human being that I am lucky to have as my friend.

I don't have words to thank Matt Skillern and his team for his brilliant and outstanding services in our child custody case. Matt is a very knowledgeable, passionate and straight forward attorney. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes times to understand the case and gives very strategic and sound advise. He worked tirelessly and eagerly knowing each and every detail of the case and did an outstanding job at the trial outlining the truth and getting justice for his client. He is an intelligent and extraordinarily dedicated attorney who is well versed with Texas laws but at the same time very human and compassionate. I don't think I have words to appreciate him and his team for their outstanding performance during the most difficult time of our life. Thank you Matt for everything and may GOD bless you and your family!!

I felt very protected with Matt and his practice. He was very knowledgeable and covered all aspects of my divorce.

If you or anyone you know is about to go through one of the toughest things to deal with in life such as a divorce and/or seeking legal custody for children, I highly recommend Matt Skillern and his team. Not knowing where to start, I was very anxious to get things going when I made the difficult decision to seek Primary custody of my son. As soon as I started working with Matt and his legal team, they quickly put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. At first, I was eager to learn all about the process and honestly, somewhat impatient, just because I was unfamiliar with the terminology and procedures. I would call several times and ask tons of questions. I quickly realized that Matt and his team are very strategic at what they do and of course, extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Once I learned that Matt and his team are very methodical, and for a good reason, I realized I needed to trust their expertise and trust the process. David Medina, Paralegal, was also very helpful and I respect his work ethic for providing me with answers to my questions or concerns within a timely manner. Associate Attorney Tina Floridia is extremely smart and will be in your corner to fight for you. Overall, my experience with Matt and his legal team was more than what I could have ever asked for. They treated my case with the utmost respect and dignity. With their help and expertise, I was successful in the outcome I was hoping for which was to be the primary custodial parent. Matt and his team are extremely diligent when it comes to fighting for what is moral and right. They work eagerly and tirelessly for what is in the best interest of their clients. I highly recommend them and plan to continue to seek their counsel in the future if needed. As a father, I knew going for primary custody was not going to be an easy task. Trust Matt and his legal team and trust their process. It is worth every penny. Thank you Matt!!

Mathew Skillern and his team provided superb legal services on a very difficult and complicated custody case. He was absolutely at the top of his game. He understood Texas law and the legal processes as it is applied in Harris County. He was able to devise a clear, effective strategy for my wife and me, communicated it with us and help us maintain the course of action for a year. The result was a great success at the end of a long, difficult road.

Matt was able to win me 50-50 custody and grant child support in the form of self supporting my children when in my custody. This is what I wanted and prayed for. Matt and Tina are a team by your side, I highly recommend them for anyone going through a divorce with an unreasonable spouse.

Long to short - my divorce case is a mix of international + US assets, immigration issues and custody issue. As a wife, I am making more income than my ex-husband, hence the case is really coming down to protecting my own assets & all of my pension portfolios. As well as my work permit was unfortunately dependent on his visa. After spending sometimes interview 10 top family law firms in Houston, it was not long decision to decide to hire Matthew and his Skillern firm to work on my divorce case from day 0 to finish. Matthew is a top notch lawyer - highly experiences - Ethics - and Strategic. He is not the most easiest lawyer to work with if you are not a good listener (an engineer liked me!) but I learn to trust him on the road. From the start of the case thru the end of mediation, I understand that to be able to lead and win the case, I need a very experience lawyer who understand what and when to negotiate. He gives me the realistic expectation for general divorce case - there is no winner & best practice is to loose minimum. The right timing and the right number in the negotiation process could only be accepted if you have the very experiences lawyer who knows this art. I was always very emotional during the process. Without having the high quality lawyer liked Matthew, my mediation would not come out to be successful on my side. My assets & my daughter assets and some key features on the custody are well protected for today and for her future. Note that his hour rate can be pretty high for some clients but when I calculate my time spending with him, the time to close my case, the lawyer fee and the out come that I have, the returns of this investment turns out to be very efficient. I highly recommend Matthew and his team at Skillern law firm.

The only reason i have an opportunity to be a father to my infant daughter is because of skillern firm. The skillern firm was my shining light thru a very dark time during my divorce. From the very moment i walked in for a consultation every person of the firm cared about my case. From the receptionist to para legals everyone knew all the details about my case. My now ex wife was attempting to permanently remove our new born from usa to a third world country. John Schmude, Matt Skillern, and Alexandia Gwyn assured me that they will do everything in their power to make sure that my daughter will remain in the united states. The skillern firm put in strong provisions in making sure my daughter will remain int the united states. They contacted all the proper authorities including the state department in preventing international child abduction. From mediation to trial they were there all along making sure my daughter has a bright future in United states. Skillern firm has very professional and experienced professionals working on all cases. I will always be grateful and in debt to the skillern firm. Skillern firm has saved my daughter’s life and above all has given me an opportunity to be a father to my daughter with sole custody. Oneday in the future i will tell my daughter all about how she was saved and the names of the people who made sure she stayed in the United States.

Matt Skillern and his team helped me gain primary custody of my 12-month daughter through incredible effort, sharp legal knowledge and skill, and compassion for justice. In the beginning I felt lost, betrayed, and scared. I didn’t know who I could trust but when I met Matt, I knew I wanted him to represent me because he is honest and sincere. He truly cares about you and your family. He has the vision the see the bigger picture and prepares you for realistic outcomes. Inside the courtroom Matt is relentless. He commands the room and is detail oriented. He does not back down and strategically attacks arguments. He will fight for your rights and for justice to be served. Looking back, I appreciated the personal stories and anecdotes Matt shared with me regarding obstacles in marriage or raising kids. He helped me grow into a better parent and person. I cannot say enough about the Skillen law firm. They have stood by my side through multiple hearings that crossed state lines and purposeful delays by the opposing side. Matt is not only the best lawyer in Houston but perhaps more importantly he is a compassionate, honest, and wonderful human being that I am lucky to have as my friend.

I don't have words to thank Matt Skillern and his team for his brilliant and outstanding services in our child custody case. Matt is a very knowledgeable, passionate and straight forward attorney. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes times to understand the case and gives very strategic and sound advise. He worked tirelessly and eagerly knowing each and every detail of the case and did an outstanding job at the trial outlining the truth and getting justice for his client. He is an intelligent and extraordinarily dedicated attorney who is well versed with Texas laws but at the same time very human and compassionate. I don't think I have words to appreciate him and his team for their outstanding performance during the most difficult time of our life. Thank you Matt for everything and may GOD bless you and your family!!

I felt very protected with Matt and his practice. He was very knowledgeable and covered all aspects of my divorce.

If you or anyone you know is about to go through one of the toughest things to deal with in life such as a divorce and/or seeking legal custody for children, I highly recommend Matt Skillern and his team. Not knowing where to start, I was very anxious to get things going when I made the difficult decision to seek Primary custody of my son. As soon as I started working with Matt and his legal team, they quickly put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. At first, I was eager to learn all about the process and honestly, somewhat impatient, just because I was unfamiliar with the terminology and procedures. I would call several times and ask tons of questions. I quickly realized that Matt and his team are very strategic at what they do and of course, extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Once I learned that Matt and his team are very methodical, and for a good reason, I realized I needed to trust their expertise and trust the process. David Medina, Paralegal, was also very helpful and I respect his work ethic for providing me with answers to my questions or concerns within a timely manner. Associate Attorney Tina Floridia is extremely smart and will be in your corner to fight for you. Overall, my experience with Matt and his legal team was more than what I could have ever asked for. They treated my case with the utmost respect and dignity. With their help and expertise, I was successful in the outcome I was hoping for which was to be the primary custodial parent. Matt and his team are extremely diligent when it comes to fighting for what is moral and right. They work eagerly and tirelessly for what is in the best interest of their clients. I highly recommend them and plan to continue to seek their counsel in the future if needed. As a father, I knew going for primary custody was not going to be an easy task. Trust Matt and his legal team and trust their process. It is worth every penny. Thank you Matt!!

Mathew Skillern and his team provided superb legal services on a very difficult and complicated custody case. He was absolutely at the top of his game. He understood Texas law and the legal processes as it is applied in Harris County. He was able to devise a clear, effective strategy for my wife and me, communicated it with us and help us maintain the course of action for a year. The result was a great success at the end of a long, difficult road.

Matt and Melissa are a superstar team. They are extremely communicative, straight forward and accessible. I appreciate the time and dedication they take to know my case inside and out; no matter how much time passes between our communication they always know the details. Matt gives straight forward advice to help move the case to conclusion swiftly. He seeks a mediated settlement first, but isn't afraid to go to trial. The office staff conducts accurate, fair bookkeeping that's clear.

Brilliant execution on our case. There is no word in the dictionary to say about him and his team members. Go with your truth and whole heart. You will never be downhearted. An epic effort by him and his team on our case. Again thanks to him and his team. Godspeed matt and his team. Keep looking your firm to grow in stupendous way. Cemerlang dan terima kasih .... We live in a bewildering world. Stephen

He is not the most easiest lawyer to work with if you are not a good listener (an engineer liked me!) but I learn to trust him on the road. From the start of the case thru the end of mediation, I understand that to be able to lead and win the case, I need a very experience lawyer who understand what and when to negotiate. He gives me the realistic expectation for general divorce case - there is no winner & best practice is to loose minimum. The right timing and the right number in the negotiation process could only be accepted if you have the very experiences lawyer who knows this art. I was always very emotional during the process. Without having the high quality lawyer liked Matthew, my mediation would not come out to be successful on my side. My assets & my daughter assets and some key features on the custody are well protected for today and for her future. Note that his hour rate can be pretty high for some clients but when I calculate my time spending with him, the time to close my case, the lawyer fee and the out come that I have, the returns of this investment turns out to be very efficient. I highly recommend Matthew and his team at Skillern law firm.

The only reason i have an opportunity to be a father to my infant daughter is because of skillern firm. The skillern firm was my shining light thru a very dark time during my divorce. From the very moment i walked in for a consultation every person of the firm cared about my case. From the receptionist to para legals everyone knew all the details about my case. My now ex wife was attempting to permanently remove our new born from usa to a third world country. John Schmude, Matt Skillern, and Alexandia Gwyn assured me that they will do everything in their power to make sure that my daughter will remain in the united states. The skillern firm put in strong provisions in making sure my daughter will remain int the united states. They contacted all the proper authorities including the state department in preventing international child abduction. From mediation to trial they were there all along making sure my daughter has a bright future in United states. Skillern firm has very professional and experienced professionals working on all cases. I will always be grateful and in debt to the skillern firm. Skillern firm has saved my daughter’s life and above all has given me an opportunity to be a father to my daughter with sole custody. Oneday in the future i will tell my daughter all about how she was saved and the names of the people who made sure she stayed in the United States.

Matt Skillern and his team helped me gain primary custody of my 12-month daughter through incredible effort, sharp legal knowledge and skill, and compassion for justice. In the beginning I felt lost, betrayed, and scared. I didn’t know who I could trust but when I met Matt, I knew I wanted him to represent me because he is honest and sincere. He truly cares about you and your family. He has the vision the see the bigger picture and prepares you for realistic outcomes. Inside the courtroom Matt is relentless. He commands the room and is detail oriented. He does not back down and strategically attacks arguments. He will fight for your rights and for justice to be served. Looking back, I appreciated the personal stories and anecdotes Matt shared with me regarding obstacles in marriage or raising kids. He helped me grow into a better parent and person. I cannot say enough about the Skillen law firm. They have stood by my side through multiple hearings that crossed state lines and purposeful delays by the opposing side. Matt is not only the best lawyer in Houston but perhaps more importantly he is a compassionate, honest, and wonderful human being that I am lucky to have as my friend.

I don't have words to thank Matt Skillern and his team for his brilliant and outstanding services in our child custody case. Matt is a very knowledgeable, passionate and straight forward attorney. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes times to understand the case and gives very strategic and sound advise. He worked tirelessly and eagerly knowing each and every detail of the case and did an outstanding job at the trial outlining the truth and getting justice for his client. He is an intelligent and extraordinarily dedicated attorney who is well versed with Texas laws but at the same time very human and compassionate. I don't think I have words to appreciate him and his team for their outstanding performance during the most difficult time of our life. Thank you Matt for everything and may GOD bless you and your family!!

I felt very protected with Matt and his practice. He was very knowledgeable and covered all aspects of my divorce.

If you or anyone you know is about to go through one of the toughest things to deal with in life such as a divorce and/or seeking legal custody for children, I highly recommend Matt Skillern and his team. Not knowing where to start, I was very anxious to get things going when I made the difficult decision to seek Primary custody of my son. As soon as I started working with Matt and his legal team, they quickly put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. At first, I was eager to learn all about the process and honestly, somewhat impatient, just because I was unfamiliar with the terminology and procedures. I would call several times and ask tons of questions. I quickly realized that Matt and his team are very strategic at what they do and of course, extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Once I learned that Matt and his team are very methodical, and for a good reason, I realized I needed to trust their expertise and trust the process. David Medina, Paralegal, was also very helpful and I respect his work ethic for providing me with answers to my questions or concerns within a timely manner. Associate Attorney Tina Floridia is extremely smart and will be in your corner to fight for you. Overall, my experience with Matt and his legal team was more than what I could have ever asked for. They treated my case with the utmost respect and dignity. With their help and expertise, I was successful in the outcome I was hoping for which was to be the primary custodial parent. Matt and his team are extremely diligent when it comes to fighting for what is moral and right. They work eagerly and tirelessly for what is in the best interest of their clients. I highly recommend them and plan to continue to seek their counsel in the future if needed. As a father, I knew going for primary custody was not going to be an easy task. Trust Matt and his legal team and trust their process. It is worth every penny. Thank you Matt!!

Mathew Skillern and his team provided superb legal services on a very difficult and complicated custody case. He was absolutely at the top of his game. He understood Texas law and the legal processes as it is applied in Harris County. He was able to devise a clear, effective strategy for my wife and me, communicated it with us and help us maintain the course of action for a year. The result was a great success at the end of a long, difficult road.

Matt and Melissa are a superstar team. They are extremely communicative, straight forward and accessible. I appreciate the time and dedication they take to know my case inside and out; no matter how much time passes between our communication they always know the details. Matt gives straight forward advice to help move the case to conclusion swiftly. He seeks a mediated settlement first, but isn't afraid to go to trial. The office staff conducts accurate, fair bookkeeping that's clear.

Brilliant execution on our case. There is no word in the dictionary to say about him and his team members. Go with your truth and whole heart. You will never be downhearted. An epic effort by him and his team on our case. Again thanks to him and his team. Godspeed matt and his team. Keep looking your firm to grow in stupendous way. Cemerlang dan terima kasih .... We live in a bewildering world. Stephen

Matt and Tina at Skillern law firm are 2 of the best lawyers in Fort bend County and Greater houston area. Matt and Tina were able to defend false allegations against me from my previous spouse which could have resulted in my children being taken away from me. Matt was able to win me 50-50 custody and grant child support in the form of self supporting my children when in my custody. This is what I wanted and prayed for. Matt and Tina are a team by your side, I highly recommend them for anyone going through a divorce with an unreasonable spouse.

Long to short - my divorce case is a mix of international + US assets, immigration issues and custody issue. As a wife, I am making more income than my ex-husband, hence the case is really coming down to protecting my own assets & all of my pension portfolios. As well as my work permit was unfortunately dependent on his visa.

Note that his hour rate can be pretty high for some clients but when I calculate my time spending with him, the time to close my case, the lawyer fee and the out come that I have, the returns of this investment turns out to be very efficient. I highly recommend Matthew and his team at Skillern law firm.

The only reason i have an opportunity to be a father to my infant daughter is because of skillern firm. The skillern firm was my shining light thru a very dark time during my divorce. From the very moment i walked in for a consultation every person of the firm cared about my case. From the receptionist to para legals everyone knew all the details about my case. My now ex wife was attempting to permanently remove our new born from usa to a third world country. John Schmude, Matt Skillern, and Alexandia Gwyn assured me that they will do everything in their power to make sure that my daughter will remain in the united states. The skillern firm put in strong provisions in making sure my daughter will remain int the united states. They contacted all the proper authorities including the state department in preventing international child abduction. From mediation to trial they were there all along making sure my daughter has a bright future in United states. Skillern firm has very professional and experienced professionals working on all cases. I will always be grateful and in debt to the skillern firm. Skillern firm has saved my daughter’s life and above all has given me an opportunity to be a father to my daughter with sole custody. Oneday in the future i will tell my daughter all about how she was saved and the names of the people who made sure she stayed in the United States.

Matt Skillern and his team helped me gain primary custody of my 12-month daughter through incredible effort, sharp legal knowledge and skill, and compassion for justice. In the beginning I felt lost, betrayed, and scared. I didn’t know who I could trust but when I met Matt, I knew I wanted him to represent me because he is honest and sincere. He truly cares about you and your family. He has the vision the see the bigger picture and prepares you for realistic outcomes. Inside the courtroom Matt is relentless. He commands the room and is detail oriented. He does not back down and strategically attacks arguments. He will fight for your rights and for justice to be served. Looking back, I appreciated the personal stories and anecdotes Matt shared with me regarding obstacles in marriage or raising kids. He helped me grow into a better parent and person. I cannot say enough about the Skillen law firm. They have stood by my side through multiple hearings that crossed state lines and purposeful delays by the opposing side. Matt is not only the best lawyer in Houston but perhaps more importantly he is a compassionate, honest, and wonderful human being that I am lucky to have as my friend.

I don't have words to thank Matt Skillern and his team for his brilliant and outstanding services in our child custody case. Matt is a very knowledgeable, passionate and straight forward attorney. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes times to understand the case and gives very strategic and sound advise. He worked tirelessly and eagerly knowing each and every detail of the case and did an outstanding job at the trial outlining the truth and getting justice for his client. He is an intelligent and extraordinarily dedicated attorney who is well versed with Texas laws but at the same time very human and compassionate. I don't think I have words to appreciate him and his team for their outstanding performance during the most difficult time of our life. Thank you Matt for everything and may GOD bless you and your family!!

I felt very protected with Matt and his practice. He was very knowledgeable and covered all aspects of my divorce.

If you or anyone you know is about to go through one of the toughest things to deal with in life such as a divorce and/or seeking legal custody for children, I highly recommend Matt Skillern and his team. Not knowing where to start, I was very anxious to get things going when I made the difficult decision to seek Primary custody of my son. As soon as I started working with Matt and his legal team, they quickly put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. At first, I was eager to learn all about the process and honestly, somewhat impatient, just because I was unfamiliar with the terminology and procedures. I would call several times and ask tons of questions. I quickly realized that Matt and his team are very strategic at what they do and of course, extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Once I learned that Matt and his team are very methodical, and for a good reason, I realized I needed to trust their expertise and trust the process. David Medina, Paralegal, was also very helpful and I respect his work ethic for providing me with answers to my questions or concerns within a timely manner. Associate Attorney Tina Floridia is extremely smart and will be in your corner to fight for you. Overall, my experience with Matt and his legal team was more than what I could have ever asked for. They treated my case with the utmost respect and dignity. With their help and expertise, I was successful in the outcome I was hoping for which was to be the primary custodial parent. Matt and his team are extremely diligent when it comes to fighting for what is moral and right. They work eagerly and tirelessly for what is in the best interest of their clients. I highly recommend them and plan to continue to seek their counsel in the future if needed. As a father, I knew going for primary custody was not going to be an easy task. Trust Matt and his legal team and trust their process. It is worth every penny. Thank you Matt!!

Mathew Skillern and his team provided superb legal services on a very difficult and complicated custody case. He was absolutely at the top of his game. He understood Texas law and the legal processes as it is applied in Harris County. He was able to devise a clear, effective strategy for my wife and me, communicated it with us and help us maintain the course of action for a year. The result was a great success at the end of a long, difficult road.

Matt and Melissa are a superstar team. They are extremely communicative, straight forward and accessible. I appreciate the time and dedication they take to know my case inside and out; no matter how much time passes between our communication they always know the details. Matt gives straight forward advice to help move the case to conclusion swiftly. He seeks a mediated settlement first, but isn't afraid to go to trial. The office staff conducts accurate, fair bookkeeping that's clear.

Brilliant execution on our case. There is no word in the dictionary to say about him and his team members. Go with your truth and whole heart. You will never be downhearted. An epic effort by him and his team on our case. Again thanks to him and his team. Godspeed matt and his team. Keep looking your firm to grow in stupendous way. Cemerlang dan terima kasih .... We live in a bewildering world. Stephen

Matt and Tina at Skillern law firm are 2 of the best lawyers in Fort bend County and Greater houston area. Matt and Tina were able to defend false allegations against me from my previous spouse which could have resulted in my children being taken away from me. Matt was able to win me 50-50 custody and grant child support in the form of self supporting my children when in my custody. This is what I wanted and prayed for. Matt and Tina are a team by your side, I highly recommend them for anyone going through a divorce with an unreasonable spouse.

Long to short - my divorce case is a mix of international + US assets, immigration issues and custody issue. As a wife, I am making more income than my ex-husband, hence the case is really coming down to protecting my own assets & all of my pension portfolios. As well as my work permit was unfortunately dependent on his visa. After spending sometimes interview 10 top family law firms in Houston, it was not long decision to decide to hire Matthew and his Skillern firm to work on my divorce case from day 0 to finish. Matthew is a top notch lawyer - highly experiences - Ethics - and Strategic. He is not the most easiest lawyer to work with if you are not a good listener (an engineer liked me!) but I learn to trust him on the road. From the start of the case thru the end of mediation, I understand that to be able to lead and win the case, I need a very experience lawyer who understand what and when to negotiate. He gives me the realistic expectation for general divorce case - there is no winner & best practice is to loose minimum. The right timing and the right number in the negotiation process could only be accepted if you have the very experiences lawyer who knows this art. I was always very emotional during the process. Without having the high quality lawyer liked Matthew, my mediation would not come out to be successful on my side. My assets & my daughter assets and some key features on the custody are well protected for today and for her future.

They contacted all the proper authorities including the state department in preventing international child abduction. From mediation to trial they were there all along making sure my daughter has a bright future in United states. Skillern firm has very professional and experienced professionals working on all cases. I will always be grateful and in debt to the skillern firm. Skillern firm has saved my daughter’s life and above all has given me an opportunity to be a father to my daughter with sole custody. Oneday in the future i will tell my daughter all about how she was saved and the names of the people who made sure she stayed in the United States.

Matt Skillern and his team helped me gain primary custody of my 12-month daughter through incredible effort, sharp legal knowledge and skill, and compassion for justice. In the beginning I felt lost, betrayed, and scared. I didn’t know who I could trust but when I met Matt, I knew I wanted him to represent me because he is honest and sincere. He truly cares about you and your family. He has the vision the see the bigger picture and prepares you for realistic outcomes. Inside the courtroom Matt is relentless. He commands the room and is detail oriented. He does not back down and strategically attacks arguments. He will fight for your rights and for justice to be served. Looking back, I appreciated the personal stories and anecdotes Matt shared with me regarding obstacles in marriage or raising kids. He helped me grow into a better parent and person. I cannot say enough about the Skillen law firm. They have stood by my side through multiple hearings that crossed state lines and purposeful delays by the opposing side. Matt is not only the best lawyer in Houston but perhaps more importantly he is a compassionate, honest, and wonderful human being that I am lucky to have as my friend.

I don't have words to thank Matt Skillern and his team for his brilliant and outstanding services in our child custody case. Matt is a very knowledgeable, passionate and straight forward attorney. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes times to understand the case and gives very strategic and sound advise. He worked tirelessly and eagerly knowing each and every detail of the case and did an outstanding job at the trial outlining the truth and getting justice for his client. He is an intelligent and extraordinarily dedicated attorney who is well versed with Texas laws but at the same time very human and compassionate. I don't think I have words to appreciate him and his team for their outstanding performance during the most difficult time of our life. Thank you Matt for everything and may GOD bless you and your family!!

I felt very protected with Matt and his practice. He was very knowledgeable and covered all aspects of my divorce.

If you or anyone you know is about to go through one of the toughest things to deal with in life such as a divorce and/or seeking legal custody for children, I highly recommend Matt Skillern and his team. Not knowing where to start, I was very anxious to get things going when I made the difficult decision to seek Primary custody of my son. As soon as I started working with Matt and his legal team, they quickly put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. At first, I was eager to learn all about the process and honestly, somewhat impatient, just because I was unfamiliar with the terminology and procedures. I would call several times and ask tons of questions. I quickly realized that Matt and his team are very strategic at what they do and of course, extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Once I learned that Matt and his team are very methodical, and for a good reason, I realized I needed to trust their expertise and trust the process. David Medina, Paralegal, was also very helpful and I respect his work ethic for providing me with answers to my questions or concerns within a timely manner. Associate Attorney Tina Floridia is extremely smart and will be in your corner to fight for you. Overall, my experience with Matt and his legal team was more than what I could have ever asked for. They treated my case with the utmost respect and dignity. With their help and expertise, I was successful in the outcome I was hoping for which was to be the primary custodial parent. Matt and his team are extremely diligent when it comes to fighting for what is moral and right. They work eagerly and tirelessly for what is in the best interest of their clients. I highly recommend them and plan to continue to seek their counsel in the future if needed. As a father, I knew going for primary custody was not going to be an easy task. Trust Matt and his legal team and trust their process. It is worth every penny. Thank you Matt!!

Mathew Skillern and his team provided superb legal services on a very difficult and complicated custody case. He was absolutely at the top of his game. He understood Texas law and the legal processes as it is applied in Harris County. He was able to devise a clear, effective strategy for my wife and me, communicated it with us and help us maintain the course of action for a year. The result was a great success at the end of a long, difficult road.

Matt and Melissa are a superstar team. They are extremely communicative, straight forward and accessible. I appreciate the time and dedication they take to know my case inside and out; no matter how much time passes between our communication they always know the details. Matt gives straight forward advice to help move the case to conclusion swiftly. He seeks a mediated settlement first, but isn't afraid to go to trial. The office staff conducts accurate, fair bookkeeping that's clear.

Brilliant execution on our case. There is no word in the dictionary to say about him and his team members. Go with your truth and whole heart. You will never be downhearted. An epic effort by him and his team on our case. Again thanks to him and his team. Godspeed matt and his team. Keep looking your firm to grow in stupendous way. Cemerlang dan terima kasih .... We live in a bewildering world. Stephen

Matt and Tina at Skillern law firm are 2 of the best lawyers in Fort bend County and Greater houston area. Matt and Tina were able to defend false allegations against me from my previous spouse which could have resulted in my children being taken away from me. Matt was able to win me 50-50 custody and grant child support in the form of self supporting my children when in my custody. This is what I wanted and prayed for. Matt and Tina are a team by your side, I highly recommend them for anyone going through a divorce with an unreasonable spouse.

Long to short - my divorce case is a mix of international + US assets, immigration issues and custody issue. As a wife, I am making more income than my ex-husband, hence the case is really coming down to protecting my own assets & all of my pension portfolios. As well as my work permit was unfortunately dependent on his visa. After spending sometimes interview 10 top family law firms in Houston, it was not long decision to decide to hire Matthew and his Skillern firm to work on my divorce case from day 0 to finish. Matthew is a top notch lawyer - highly experiences - Ethics - and Strategic. He is not the most easiest lawyer to work with if you are not a good listener (an engineer liked me!) but I learn to trust him on the road. From the start of the case thru the end of mediation, I understand that to be able to lead and win the case, I need a very experience lawyer who understand what and when to negotiate. He gives me the realistic expectation for general divorce case - there is no winner & best practice is to loose minimum. The right timing and the right number in the negotiation process could only be accepted if you have the very experiences lawyer who knows this art. I was always very emotional during the process. Without having the high quality lawyer liked Matthew, my mediation would not come out to be successful on my side. My assets & my daughter assets and some key features on the custody are well protected for today and for her future. Note that his hour rate can be pretty high for some clients but when I calculate my time spending with him, the time to close my case, the lawyer fee and the out come that I have, the returns of this investment turns out to be very efficient. I highly recommend Matthew and his team at Skillern law firm.

The only reason i have an opportunity to be a father to my infant daughter is because of skillern firm. The skillern firm was my shining light thru a very dark time during my divorce. From the very moment i walked in for a consultation every person of the firm cared about my case. From the receptionist to para legals everyone knew all the details about my case.

He truly cares about you and your family. He has the vision the see the bigger picture and prepares you for realistic outcomes. Inside the courtroom Matt is relentless. He commands the room and is detail oriented. He does not back down and strategically attacks arguments. He will fight for your rights and for justice to be served. Looking back, I appreciated the personal stories and anecdotes Matt shared with me regarding obstacles in marriage or raising kids. He helped me grow into a better parent and person. I cannot say enough about the Skillen law firm. They have stood by my side through multiple hearings that crossed state lines and purposeful delays by the opposing side. Matt is not only the best lawyer in Houston but perhaps more importantly he is a compassionate, honest, and wonderful human being that I am lucky to have as my friend.

I don't have words to thank Matt Skillern and his team for his brilliant and outstanding services in our child custody case. Matt is a very knowledgeable, passionate and straight forward attorney. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes times to understand the case and gives very strategic and sound advise. He worked tirelessly and eagerly knowing each and every detail of the case and did an outstanding job at the trial outlining the truth and getting justice for his client. He is an intelligent and extraordinarily dedicated attorney who is well versed with Texas laws but at the same time very human and compassionate. I don't think I have words to appreciate him and his team for their outstanding performance during the most difficult time of our life. Thank you Matt for everything and may GOD bless you and your family!!

I felt very protected with Matt and his practice. He was very knowledgeable and covered all aspects of my divorce.

If you or anyone you know is about to go through one of the toughest things to deal with in life such as a divorce and/or seeking legal custody for children, I highly recommend Matt Skillern and his team. Not knowing where to start, I was very anxious to get things going when I made the difficult decision to seek Primary custody of my son. As soon as I started working with Matt and his legal team, they quickly put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. At first, I was eager to learn all about the process and honestly, somewhat impatient, just because I was unfamiliar with the terminology and procedures. I would call several times and ask tons of questions. I quickly realized that Matt and his team are very strategic at what they do and of course, extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Once I learned that Matt and his team are very methodical, and for a good reason, I realized I needed to trust their expertise and trust the process. David Medina, Paralegal, was also very helpful and I respect his work ethic for providing me with answers to my questions or concerns within a timely manner. Associate Attorney Tina Floridia is extremely smart and will be in your corner to fight for you. Overall, my experience with Matt and his legal team was more than what I could have ever asked for. They treated my case with the utmost respect and dignity. With their help and expertise, I was successful in the outcome I was hoping for which was to be the primary custodial parent. Matt and his team are extremely diligent when it comes to fighting for what is moral and right. They work eagerly and tirelessly for what is in the best interest of their clients. I highly recommend them and plan to continue to seek their counsel in the future if needed. As a father, I knew going for primary custody was not going to be an easy task. Trust Matt and his legal team and trust their process. It is worth every penny. Thank you Matt!!

Mathew Skillern and his team provided superb legal services on a very difficult and complicated custody case. He was absolutely at the top of his game. He understood Texas law and the legal processes as it is applied in Harris County. He was able to devise a clear, effective strategy for my wife and me, communicated it with us and help us maintain the course of action for a year. The result was a great success at the end of a long, difficult road.
