I was completely caught off guard after finding out I was getting divorced. Keep in mind, I married a CRIMINAL defense attorney. Divorce is hard, but divorcing an attorney, is by far the hardest. Mr. Rudisel is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly one of a kind. You need someone like him by your side; especially if you’re going through a humiliating, and downright nasty divorce, such as mine. Before, and during my meeting with Mr. Rudisel, I was a nervous wreck... this divorce is (and will always be) one of the most difficult experiences of my life; frankly, I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. During mediation, I was shocked to find out my ex initially proposed, for himself to have sole primary custody of our daughter; I was in utter disbelief, this was something I did not see coming (although in retrospect I should have). Of course, Mr. Rudisel wasn't allowing that, and quickly shut their absurd proposal down; it is because of Shawn, I have shared joint custody of daughter. Although this is only the beginning, Shawn Rudisel has already proven himself to be a zealous advocate for my child, myself, and my personal needs. His staff is wonderful as well; Kirsty and Samantha are amazing and have been a true pleasure to work with. My ex may be a decently experienced attorney (so I am told), but he is without a doubt, no Shawn Rudisel.

A referral led me to Sean Rudisel for my custody case. After my initial meeting with him, I knew I’d found the right person. He is by far the best attorney I have encountered. His efficiency and capability helped to ease my worry during my difficult custody battle with my daughter’s mother. He advised me precisely and correctly in every meeting we had. I truly owe him a mountain of gratitude, as I am now closing out the case successfully and in a way that benefits my daughter. He truly has your best interest at heart. Thank you Sean. I appreciate everything you have done to help me through this difficult time. D.

Shawn and his team were amazing for me. I changed lawyers to him at the last minute and he was immediately all in with my case. He was attentive and honest in our meetings and he was completely organized and prepared for mediation even though we only had days to prepare together. I ended up getting the exact result I wanted and I could not have done so without his guidance, expertise and patience. I will recommend him to everyone I can.

Shawn was excellent and professional. Got my case done quick. Highly recommended.

First of all, divorce is not cheap if you don't have two willing parties that will be able to settle in mediation. 90% of all divorces end in mediation and this is what most lawyers are hoping for because they don't have trial experience. If you are early in the process, accept this now. If you know you will go to trial because your ex has no incentive to divorce, you will NOT save money. There are so many ways to lose money if your attorney is not looking for every angle from the opposing attorney that’s designed to cost you money. Believe me, coming from someone that spent a year and ultimately went to trial, I can count over $40,000 my first lawyer (not Shawn unfortunately) cost me because he didn't look at the details of what I was order to pay my ex. This didn't count the $55,000 I ultimately paid this lawyer. A year prior to actually filing for my divorce, Shawn spent a lot of time on the phone with me going over my options and never charged me a dime. I was so new to the process and remember thinking, $3000 retainer? Why so much? It shouldn’t cost that much, should it? Shawn tried to explain to me what I was in for because there was no way my ex would ever settle. We were going to trial, no matter what and that will cost money. When I finally decided to file, I went with a lawyer that had over 500 positive reviews on birdeye.com. I thought, wow… all those can’t be wrong. Well, believe me, because someone maintains this plethora of positive reviews doesn’t make them a competent lawyer. Over $50,000 later, the $3,000 retainer was nothing. I am kicking myself for not choosing Shawn to represent me in my divorce because he would have caught all these issues as they happened. After my divorce was finally finished, I needed to file another petition to change the verbiage around the sale of the marital home in the final divorce decree. Again, this is because my first lawyer (not Shawn) didn’t “catch” this change from the opposing attorney who wrote the final decree. My old lawyer drug his feet for over 8 weeks and said I owed him $3,000 for this petition and this was before we even went to court the first time! I fired that lawyer and called Shawn. Again, Shawn spent a long time on the phone with me and even reviewed the draft of the petition from my first lawyer. He immediately pointed out errors and offered a solution that saved me. Within a day, he had written a Petition for me to file myself. He only charged me for a couple of hours but spent well over 6 hours on the phone and researching my options for a poorly written divorce decree that my first lawyer signed off on. Since this petition was all procedural at this point, there was no “argument” needed by lawyers. Shawn explained I didn't need to pay a lawyer travel time and court time which is usually at least 2 court dates. Shawn saved me thousands on this alone. I filed the professional Petition, had my ex served papers, and went to court. The judge rendered his decision and Shawn even wrote the “Order” for me to bring back to the judge for him to sign. Shawn didn’t even charge me for this extra work which is unheard of for any lawyer. Believe me, there will be no other attorney to consider if I’m ever in this situation again. If you need a divorce attorney, Shawn is the man to go to. He will be your advocate and have your best interest in mind. Something my first lawyer clearly lacked.

Shawn did my divorce. He put my mind at ease and did exactly what he said he would. He is professional and worth the price. He is fantastic! I am very happy with the outcome.

Very personable and easy to work with. First time going through something like this and to have Mr. Rudisel in my corner was a huge relief throughout my whole divorce. The ladies in the office are all awesome and very helpful with any questions or concerns I may have. Talking with Mr. Rudisel was like talking with a close friend that had your back in a tough time and I appreciate everything his practice did for me.

Shawn shut it down!!!! He’s very knowledgeable about court and all the judges in Houston. There was never a time that Shawn said “I don’t know” He was WELL worth the money! He does get busy at times but what do you expect when the best attorney in Houston is your lawyer? He got to the point and didn’t waste a lot of time. He told us how to strategize and win! No regrets. We 100% support Shawn and The Rudisel Law Firm!

I disagree with the negative reviews entirely. I was extremely happy with the services Attorney Rudisel provided for me. I had a difficult enforcement case that caught me entirely off guard. I was short on funds, in the middle of a move with my toddler and had very short notice of a lawsuit coming my way. When I first reached out to The Rudisel Law Firm, Angel was knowledgable about the process, very reassuring and helpful. Attorney Rudisel took my case on no questions asked and worked with my finances. He came in and completely took over the entire situation. The staff was in constant communication with me every step and had answers for all of my questions. Attorney Rudisel always took the time to walk me through the law and turned the whole case around. I now have full custody and could not be happier. He is an outstanding lawyer whom I have recommended to multiple friends, family and co-workers.

I am very pleased with Mr. Rudisels’ handing of my divorce. From the very first meeting, Shawn took the time to answer all my questions - no matter what, or when I asked them. He gave his honest opinion and best guesstimate on a timeline - which, despite my doubts, has proven to be spot on!! While the matter of divorce is in actuality a routine business for him, it is a very real, painful, highly emotional, and difficult fight for the client going through it. Shawn always had a genuine bedside manner (for lack of a better term) and never made me feel like just another case number. He always gave solid legal advise to calm my fears which were stirred up by OC, and broke things down so this non-attorney could understand how things operate. Shawn furthermore extended grace to me time after time as I learned how to navigate the SLOW road of divorce. When OC came at us with a fight, Shawn dug his heels in and took the fight to them! If you need a lawyer that isn’t afraid of the courtroom - Shawn is your man! I nicknamed him Bull Dog - because in the courtroom, that is EXACTLY what he is! This man truly shines in the courtroom! Where I saw other lawyers argue with judges, shy away from cross examination questions, or just sloppy work......I saw Shawn direct his questions with pin point accuracy to get his point across. He knew how to communicate with the courts so he didn’t ruffle feathers and end up on their bad side. Shawn had his direction set and he walked down that courtroom path with confidence (not arrogance) like I haven’t seen in a long time. If you believe you are in for a fight.....go with Bull Dog, he won’t let you down.

He does get busy at times but what do you expect when the best attorney in Houston is your lawyer? He got to the point and didn’t waste a lot of time. He told us how to strategize and win! No regrets. We 100% support Shawn and The Rudisel Law Firm!

I disagree with the negative reviews entirely. I was extremely happy with the services Attorney Rudisel provided for me. I had a difficult enforcement case that caught me entirely off guard. I was short on funds, in the middle of a move with my toddler and had very short notice of a lawsuit coming my way. When I first reached out to The Rudisel Law Firm, Angel was knowledgable about the process, very reassuring and helpful. Attorney Rudisel took my case on no questions asked and worked with my finances. He came in and completely took over the entire situation. The staff was in constant communication with me every step and had answers for all of my questions. Attorney Rudisel always took the time to walk me through the law and turned the whole case around. I now have full custody and could not be happier. He is an outstanding lawyer whom I have recommended to multiple friends, family and co-workers.

I am very pleased with Mr. Rudisels’ handing of my divorce. From the very first meeting, Shawn took the time to answer all my questions - no matter what, or when I asked them. He gave his honest opinion and best guesstimate on a timeline - which, despite my doubts, has proven to be spot on!! While the matter of divorce is in actuality a routine business for him, it is a very real, painful, highly emotional, and difficult fight for the client going through it. Shawn always had a genuine bedside manner (for lack of a better term) and never made me feel like just another case number. He always gave solid legal advise to calm my fears which were stirred up by OC, and broke things down so this non-attorney could understand how things operate. Shawn furthermore extended grace to me time after time as I learned how to navigate the SLOW road of divorce. When OC came at us with a fight, Shawn dug his heels in and took the fight to them! If you need a lawyer that isn’t afraid of the courtroom - Shawn is your man! I nicknamed him Bull Dog - because in the courtroom, that is EXACTLY what he is! This man truly shines in the courtroom! Where I saw other lawyers argue with judges, shy away from cross examination questions, or just sloppy work......I saw Shawn direct his questions with pin point accuracy to get his point across. He knew how to communicate with the courts so he didn’t ruffle feathers and end up on their bad side. Shawn had his direction set and he walked down that courtroom path with confidence (not arrogance) like I haven’t seen in a long time. If you believe you are in for a fight.....go with Bull Dog, he won’t let you down.

I was completely caught off guard after finding out I was getting divorced. Keep in mind, I married a CRIMINAL defense attorney. Divorce is hard, but divorcing an attorney, is by far the hardest. Mr. Rudisel is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly one of a kind. You need someone like him by your side; especially if you’re going through a humiliating, and downright nasty divorce, such as mine. Before, and during my meeting with Mr. Rudisel, I was a nervous wreck... this divorce is (and will always be) one of the most difficult experiences of my life; frankly, I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. During mediation, I was shocked to find out my ex initially proposed, for himself to have sole primary custody of our daughter; I was in utter disbelief, this was something I did not see coming (although in retrospect I should have). Of course, Mr. Rudisel wasn't allowing that, and quickly shut their absurd proposal down; it is because of Shawn, I have shared joint custody of daughter. Although this is only the beginning, Shawn Rudisel has already proven himself to be a zealous advocate for my child, myself, and my personal needs. His staff is wonderful as well; Kirsty and Samantha are amazing and have been a true pleasure to work with. My ex may be a decently experienced attorney (so I am told), but he is without a doubt, no Shawn Rudisel.

A referral led me to Sean Rudisel for my custody case. After my initial meeting with him, I knew I’d found the right person. He is by far the best attorney I have encountered. His efficiency and capability helped to ease my worry during my difficult custody battle with my daughter’s mother. He advised me precisely and correctly in every meeting we had. I truly owe him a mountain of gratitude, as I am now closing out the case successfully and in a way that benefits my daughter. He truly has your best interest at heart. Thank you Sean. I appreciate everything you have done to help me through this difficult time. D.

Shawn and his team were amazing for me. I changed lawyers to him at the last minute and he was immediately all in with my case. He was attentive and honest in our meetings and he was completely organized and prepared for mediation even though we only had days to prepare together. I ended up getting the exact result I wanted and I could not have done so without his guidance, expertise and patience. I will recommend him to everyone I can.

Shawn was excellent and professional. Got my case done quick. Highly recommended.

First of all, divorce is not cheap if you don't have two willing parties that will be able to settle in mediation. 90% of all divorces end in mediation and this is what most lawyers are hoping for because they don't have trial experience. If you are early in the process, accept this now. If you know you will go to trial because your ex has no incentive to divorce, you will NOT save money. There are so many ways to lose money if your attorney is not looking for every angle from the opposing attorney that’s designed to cost you money. Believe me, coming from someone that spent a year and ultimately went to trial, I can count over $40,000 my first lawyer (not Shawn unfortunately) cost me because he didn't look at the details of what I was order to pay my ex. This didn't count the $55,000 I ultimately paid this lawyer. A year prior to actually filing for my divorce, Shawn spent a lot of time on the phone with me going over my options and never charged me a dime. I was so new to the process and remember thinking, $3000 retainer? Why so much? It shouldn’t cost that much, should it? Shawn tried to explain to me what I was in for because there was no way my ex would ever settle. We were going to trial, no matter what and that will cost money. When I finally decided to file, I went with a lawyer that had over 500 positive reviews on birdeye.com. I thought, wow… all those can’t be wrong. Well, believe me, because someone maintains this plethora of positive reviews doesn’t make them a competent lawyer. Over $50,000 later, the $3,000 retainer was nothing. I am kicking myself for not choosing Shawn to represent me in my divorce because he would have caught all these issues as they happened. After my divorce was finally finished, I needed to file another petition to change the verbiage around the sale of the marital home in the final divorce decree. Again, this is because my first lawyer (not Shawn) didn’t “catch” this change from the opposing attorney who wrote the final decree. My old lawyer drug his feet for over 8 weeks and said I owed him $3,000 for this petition and this was before we even went to court the first time! I fired that lawyer and called Shawn. Again, Shawn spent a long time on the phone with me and even reviewed the draft of the petition from my first lawyer. He immediately pointed out errors and offered a solution that saved me. Within a day, he had written a Petition for me to file myself. He only charged me for a couple of hours but spent well over 6 hours on the phone and researching my options for a poorly written divorce decree that my first lawyer signed off on. Since this petition was all procedural at this point, there was no “argument” needed by lawyers. Shawn explained I didn't need to pay a lawyer travel time and court time which is usually at least 2 court dates. Shawn saved me thousands on this alone. I filed the professional Petition, had my ex served papers, and went to court. The judge rendered his decision and Shawn even wrote the “Order” for me to bring back to the judge for him to sign. Shawn didn’t even charge me for this extra work which is unheard of for any lawyer. Believe me, there will be no other attorney to consider if I’m ever in this situation again. If you need a divorce attorney, Shawn is the man to go to. He will be your advocate and have your best interest in mind. Something my first lawyer clearly lacked.

Shawn did my divorce. He put my mind at ease and did exactly what he said he would. He is professional and worth the price. He is fantastic! I am very happy with the outcome.

Very personable and easy to work with. First time going through something like this and to have Mr. Rudisel in my corner was a huge relief throughout my whole divorce. The ladies in the office are all awesome and very helpful with any questions or concerns I may have. Talking with Mr. Rudisel was like talking with a close friend that had your back in a tough time and I appreciate everything his practice did for me.

Shawn tried to explain to me what I was in for because there was no way my ex would ever settle. We were going to trial, no matter what and that will cost money. When I finally decided to file, I went with a lawyer that had over 500 positive reviews on birdeye.com. I thought, wow… all those can’t be wrong. Well, believe me, because someone maintains this plethora of positive reviews doesn’t make them a competent lawyer. Over $50,000 later, the $3,000 retainer was nothing. I am kicking myself for not choosing Shawn to represent me in my divorce because he would have caught all these issues as they happened. After my divorce was finally finished, I needed to file another petition to change the verbiage around the sale of the marital home in the final divorce decree. Again, this is because my first lawyer (not Shawn) didn’t “catch” this change from the opposing attorney who wrote the final decree. My old lawyer drug his feet for over 8 weeks and said I owed him $3,000 for this petition and this was before we even went to court the first time! I fired that lawyer and called Shawn. Again, Shawn spent a long time on the phone with me and even reviewed the draft of the petition from my first lawyer. He immediately pointed out errors and offered a solution that saved me. Within a day, he had written a Petition for me to file myself. He only charged me for a couple of hours but spent well over 6 hours on the phone and researching my options for a poorly written divorce decree that my first lawyer signed off on. Since this petition was all procedural at this point, there was no “argument” needed by lawyers. Shawn explained I didn't need to pay a lawyer travel time and court time which is usually at least 2 court dates. Shawn saved me thousands on this alone. I filed the professional Petition, had my ex served papers, and went to court. The judge rendered his decision and Shawn even wrote the “Order” for me to bring back to the judge for him to sign. Shawn didn’t even charge me for this extra work which is unheard of for any lawyer. Believe me, there will be no other attorney to consider if I’m ever in this situation again. If you need a divorce attorney, Shawn is the man to go to. He will be your advocate and have your best interest in mind. Something my first lawyer clearly lacked.

Shawn did my divorce. He put my mind at ease and did exactly what he said he would. He is professional and worth the price. He is fantastic! I am very happy with the outcome.

Very personable and easy to work with. First time going through something like this and to have Mr. Rudisel in my corner was a huge relief throughout my whole divorce. The ladies in the office are all awesome and very helpful with any questions or concerns I may have. Talking with Mr. Rudisel was like talking with a close friend that had your back in a tough time and I appreciate everything his practice did for me.

Shawn shut it down!!!! He’s very knowledgeable about court and all the judges in Houston. There was never a time that Shawn said “I don’t know” He was WELL worth the money! He does get busy at times but what do you expect when the best attorney in Houston is your lawyer? He got to the point and didn’t waste a lot of time. He told us how to strategize and win! No regrets. We 100% support Shawn and The Rudisel Law Firm!

I disagree with the negative reviews entirely. I was extremely happy with the services Attorney Rudisel provided for me. I had a difficult enforcement case that caught me entirely off guard. I was short on funds, in the middle of a move with my toddler and had very short notice of a lawsuit coming my way. When I first reached out to The Rudisel Law Firm, Angel was knowledgable about the process, very reassuring and helpful. Attorney Rudisel took my case on no questions asked and worked with my finances. He came in and completely took over the entire situation. The staff was in constant communication with me every step and had answers for all of my questions. Attorney Rudisel always took the time to walk me through the law and turned the whole case around. I now have full custody and could not be happier. He is an outstanding lawyer whom I have recommended to multiple friends, family and co-workers.

I am very pleased with Mr. Rudisels’ handing of my divorce. From the very first meeting, Shawn took the time to answer all my questions - no matter what, or when I asked them. He gave his honest opinion and best guesstimate on a timeline - which, despite my doubts, has proven to be spot on!! While the matter of divorce is in actuality a routine business for him, it is a very real, painful, highly emotional, and difficult fight for the client going through it. Shawn always had a genuine bedside manner (for lack of a better term) and never made me feel like just another case number. He always gave solid legal advise to calm my fears which were stirred up by OC, and broke things down so this non-attorney could understand how things operate. Shawn furthermore extended grace to me time after time as I learned how to navigate the SLOW road of divorce. When OC came at us with a fight, Shawn dug his heels in and took the fight to them! If you need a lawyer that isn’t afraid of the courtroom - Shawn is your man! I nicknamed him Bull Dog - because in the courtroom, that is EXACTLY what he is! This man truly shines in the courtroom! Where I saw other lawyers argue with judges, shy away from cross examination questions, or just sloppy work......I saw Shawn direct his questions with pin point accuracy to get his point across. He knew how to communicate with the courts so he didn’t ruffle feathers and end up on their bad side. Shawn had his direction set and he walked down that courtroom path with confidence (not arrogance) like I haven’t seen in a long time. If you believe you are in for a fight.....go with Bull Dog, he won’t let you down.

I was completely caught off guard after finding out I was getting divorced. Keep in mind, I married a CRIMINAL defense attorney. Divorce is hard, but divorcing an attorney, is by far the hardest. Mr. Rudisel is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly one of a kind. You need someone like him by your side; especially if you’re going through a humiliating, and downright nasty divorce, such as mine. Before, and during my meeting with Mr. Rudisel, I was a nervous wreck... this divorce is (and will always be) one of the most difficult experiences of my life; frankly, I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. During mediation, I was shocked to find out my ex initially proposed, for himself to have sole primary custody of our daughter; I was in utter disbelief, this was something I did not see coming (although in retrospect I should have). Of course, Mr. Rudisel wasn't allowing that, and quickly shut their absurd proposal down; it is because of Shawn, I have shared joint custody of daughter. Although this is only the beginning, Shawn Rudisel has already proven himself to be a zealous advocate for my child, myself, and my personal needs. His staff is wonderful as well; Kirsty and Samantha are amazing and have been a true pleasure to work with. My ex may be a decently experienced attorney (so I am told), but he is without a doubt, no Shawn Rudisel.

A referral led me to Sean Rudisel for my custody case. After my initial meeting with him, I knew I’d found the right person. He is by far the best attorney I have encountered. His efficiency and capability helped to ease my worry during my difficult custody battle with my daughter’s mother. He advised me precisely and correctly in every meeting we had. I truly owe him a mountain of gratitude, as I am now closing out the case successfully and in a way that benefits my daughter. He truly has your best interest at heart. Thank you Sean. I appreciate everything you have done to help me through this difficult time. D.

Shawn and his team were amazing for me. I changed lawyers to him at the last minute and he was immediately all in with my case. He was attentive and honest in our meetings and he was completely organized and prepared for mediation even though we only had days to prepare together. I ended up getting the exact result I wanted and I could not have done so without his guidance, expertise and patience. I will recommend him to everyone I can.

Shawn was excellent and professional. Got my case done quick. Highly recommended.

First of all, divorce is not cheap if you don't have two willing parties that will be able to settle in mediation. 90% of all divorces end in mediation and this is what most lawyers are hoping for because they don't have trial experience. If you are early in the process, accept this now. If you know you will go to trial because your ex has no incentive to divorce, you will NOT save money. There are so many ways to lose money if your attorney is not looking for every angle from the opposing attorney that’s designed to cost you money. Believe me, coming from someone that spent a year and ultimately went to trial, I can count over $40,000 my first lawyer (not Shawn unfortunately) cost me because he didn't look at the details of what I was order to pay my ex. This didn't count the $55,000 I ultimately paid this lawyer. A year prior to actually filing for my divorce, Shawn spent a lot of time on the phone with me going over my options and never charged me a dime. I was so new to the process and remember thinking, $3000 retainer? Why so much? It shouldn’t cost that much, should it?

Before, and during my meeting with Mr. Rudisel, I was a nervous wreck... this divorce is (and will always be) one of the most difficult experiences of my life; frankly, I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. During mediation, I was shocked to find out my ex initially proposed, for himself to have sole primary custody of our daughter; I was in utter disbelief, this was something I did not see coming (although in retrospect I should have). Of course, Mr. Rudisel wasn't allowing that, and quickly shut their absurd proposal down; it is because of Shawn, I have shared joint custody of daughter. Although this is only the beginning, Shawn Rudisel has already proven himself to be a zealous advocate for my child, myself, and my personal needs. His staff is wonderful as well; Kirsty and Samantha are amazing and have been a true pleasure to work with. My ex may be a decently experienced attorney (so I am told), but he is without a doubt, no Shawn Rudisel.

A referral led me to Sean Rudisel for my custody case. After my initial meeting with him, I knew I’d found the right person. He is by far the best attorney I have encountered. His efficiency and capability helped to ease my worry during my difficult custody battle with my daughter’s mother. He advised me precisely and correctly in every meeting we had. I truly owe him a mountain of gratitude, as I am now closing out the case successfully and in a way that benefits my daughter. He truly has your best interest at heart. Thank you Sean. I appreciate everything you have done to help me through this difficult time. D.

Shawn and his team were amazing for me. I changed lawyers to him at the last minute and he was immediately all in with my case. He was attentive and honest in our meetings and he was completely organized and prepared for mediation even though we only had days to prepare together. I ended up getting the exact result I wanted and I could not have done so without his guidance, expertise and patience. I will recommend him to everyone I can.

Shawn was excellent and professional. Got my case done quick. Highly recommended.

First of all, divorce is not cheap if you don't have two willing parties that will be able to settle in mediation. 90% of all divorces end in mediation and this is what most lawyers are hoping for because they don't have trial experience. If you are early in the process, accept this now. If you know you will go to trial because your ex has no incentive to divorce, you will NOT save money. There are so many ways to lose money if your attorney is not looking for every angle from the opposing attorney that’s designed to cost you money. Believe me, coming from someone that spent a year and ultimately went to trial, I can count over $40,000 my first lawyer (not Shawn unfortunately) cost me because he didn't look at the details of what I was order to pay my ex. This didn't count the $55,000 I ultimately paid this lawyer. A year prior to actually filing for my divorce, Shawn spent a lot of time on the phone with me going over my options and never charged me a dime. I was so new to the process and remember thinking, $3000 retainer? Why so much? It shouldn’t cost that much, should it? Shawn tried to explain to me what I was in for because there was no way my ex would ever settle. We were going to trial, no matter what and that will cost money. When I finally decided to file, I went with a lawyer that had over 500 positive reviews on birdeye.com. I thought, wow… all those can’t be wrong. Well, believe me, because someone maintains this plethora of positive reviews doesn’t make them a competent lawyer. Over $50,000 later, the $3,000 retainer was nothing. I am kicking myself for not choosing Shawn to represent me in my divorce because he would have caught all these issues as they happened. After my divorce was finally finished, I needed to file another petition to change the verbiage around the sale of the marital home in the final divorce decree. Again, this is because my first lawyer (not Shawn) didn’t “catch” this change from the opposing attorney who wrote the final decree. My old lawyer drug his feet for over 8 weeks and said I owed him $3,000 for this petition and this was before we even went to court the first time! I fired that lawyer and called Shawn. Again, Shawn spent a long time on the phone with me and even reviewed the draft of the petition from my first lawyer. He immediately pointed out errors and offered a solution that saved me. Within a day, he had written a Petition for me to file myself. He only charged me for a couple of hours but spent well over 6 hours on the phone and researching my options for a poorly written divorce decree that my first lawyer signed off on. Since this petition was all procedural at this point, there was no “argument” needed by lawyers. Shawn explained I didn't need to pay a lawyer travel time and court time which is usually at least 2 court dates. Shawn saved me thousands on this alone. I filed the professional Petition, had my ex served papers, and went to court. The judge rendered his decision and Shawn even wrote the “Order” for me to bring back to the judge for him to sign. Shawn didn’t even charge me for this extra work which is unheard of for any lawyer. Believe me, there will be no other attorney to consider if I’m ever in this situation again. If you need a divorce attorney, Shawn is the man to go to. He will be your advocate and have your best interest in mind. Something my first lawyer clearly lacked.

Shawn did my divorce. He put my mind at ease and did exactly what he said he would. He is professional and worth the price. He is fantastic! I am very happy with the outcome.

Very personable and easy to work with. First time going through something like this and to have Mr. Rudisel in my corner was a huge relief throughout my whole divorce. The ladies in the office are all awesome and very helpful with any questions or concerns I may have. Talking with Mr. Rudisel was like talking with a close friend that had your back in a tough time and I appreciate everything his practice did for me.

Shawn shut it down!!!! He’s very knowledgeable about court and all the judges in Houston. There was never a time that Shawn said “I don’t know” He was WELL worth the money! He does get busy at times but what do you expect when the best attorney in Houston is your lawyer? He got to the point and didn’t waste a lot of time. He told us how to strategize and win! No regrets. We 100% support Shawn and The Rudisel Law Firm!

I disagree with the negative reviews entirely. I was extremely happy with the services Attorney Rudisel provided for me. I had a difficult enforcement case that caught me entirely off guard. I was short on funds, in the middle of a move with my toddler and had very short notice of a lawsuit coming my way. When I first reached out to The Rudisel Law Firm, Angel was knowledgable about the process, very reassuring and helpful. Attorney Rudisel took my case on no questions asked and worked with my finances. He came in and completely took over the entire situation. The staff was in constant communication with me every step and had answers for all of my questions. Attorney Rudisel always took the time to walk me through the law and turned the whole case around. I now have full custody and could not be happier. He is an outstanding lawyer whom I have recommended to multiple friends, family and co-workers.

I am very pleased with Mr. Rudisels’ handing of my divorce. From the very first meeting, Shawn took the time to answer all my questions - no matter what, or when I asked them. He gave his honest opinion and best guesstimate on a timeline - which, despite my doubts, has proven to be spot on!! While the matter of divorce is in actuality a routine business for him, it is a very real, painful, highly emotional, and difficult fight for the client going through it. Shawn always had a genuine bedside manner (for lack of a better term) and never made me feel like just another case number. He always gave solid legal advise to calm my fears which were stirred up by OC, and broke things down so this non-attorney could understand how things operate. Shawn furthermore extended grace to me time after time as I learned how to navigate the SLOW road of divorce. When OC came at us with a fight, Shawn dug his heels in and took the fight to them! If you need a lawyer that isn’t afraid of the courtroom - Shawn is your man! I nicknamed him Bull Dog - because in the courtroom, that is EXACTLY what he is! This man truly shines in the courtroom! Where I saw other lawyers argue with judges, shy away from cross examination questions, or just sloppy work......I saw Shawn direct his questions with pin point accuracy to get his point across. He knew how to communicate with the courts so he didn’t ruffle feathers and end up on their bad side. Shawn had his direction set and he walked down that courtroom path with confidence (not arrogance) like I haven’t seen in a long time. If you believe you are in for a fight.....go with Bull Dog, he won’t let you down.

I was completely caught off guard after finding out I was getting divorced. Keep in mind, I married a CRIMINAL defense attorney. Divorce is hard, but divorcing an attorney, is by far the hardest. Mr. Rudisel is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly one of a kind.

No regrets. We 100% support Shawn and The Rudisel Law Firm!

I disagree with the negative reviews entirely. I was extremely happy with the services Attorney Rudisel provided for me. I had a difficult enforcement case that caught me entirely off guard. I was short on funds, in the middle of a move with my toddler and had very short notice of a lawsuit coming my way. When I first reached out to The Rudisel Law Firm, Angel was knowledgable about the process, very reassuring and helpful. Attorney Rudisel took my case on no questions asked and worked with my finances. He came in and completely took over the entire situation. The staff was in constant communication with me every step and had answers for all of my questions. Attorney Rudisel always took the time to walk me through the law and turned the whole case around. I now have full custody and could not be happier. He is an outstanding lawyer whom I have recommended to multiple friends, family and co-workers.

I am very pleased with Mr. Rudisels’ handing of my divorce. From the very first meeting, Shawn took the time to answer all my questions - no matter what, or when I asked them. He gave his honest opinion and best guesstimate on a timeline - which, despite my doubts, has proven to be spot on!! While the matter of divorce is in actuality a routine business for him, it is a very real, painful, highly emotional, and difficult fight for the client going through it. Shawn always had a genuine bedside manner (for lack of a better term) and never made me feel like just another case number. He always gave solid legal advise to calm my fears which were stirred up by OC, and broke things down so this non-attorney could understand how things operate. Shawn furthermore extended grace to me time after time as I learned how to navigate the SLOW road of divorce. When OC came at us with a fight, Shawn dug his heels in and took the fight to them! If you need a lawyer that isn’t afraid of the courtroom - Shawn is your man! I nicknamed him Bull Dog - because in the courtroom, that is EXACTLY what he is! This man truly shines in the courtroom! Where I saw other lawyers argue with judges, shy away from cross examination questions, or just sloppy work......I saw Shawn direct his questions with pin point accuracy to get his point across. He knew how to communicate with the courts so he didn’t ruffle feathers and end up on their bad side. Shawn had his direction set and he walked down that courtroom path with confidence (not arrogance) like I haven’t seen in a long time. If you believe you are in for a fight.....go with Bull Dog, he won’t let you down.

I was completely caught off guard after finding out I was getting divorced. Keep in mind, I married a CRIMINAL defense attorney. Divorce is hard, but divorcing an attorney, is by far the hardest. Mr. Rudisel is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly one of a kind. You need someone like him by your side; especially if you’re going through a humiliating, and downright nasty divorce, such as mine. Before, and during my meeting with Mr. Rudisel, I was a nervous wreck... this divorce is (and will always be) one of the most difficult experiences of my life; frankly, I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. During mediation, I was shocked to find out my ex initially proposed, for himself to have sole primary custody of our daughter; I was in utter disbelief, this was something I did not see coming (although in retrospect I should have). Of course, Mr. Rudisel wasn't allowing that, and quickly shut their absurd proposal down; it is because of Shawn, I have shared joint custody of daughter. Although this is only the beginning, Shawn Rudisel has already proven himself to be a zealous advocate for my child, myself, and my personal needs. His staff is wonderful as well; Kirsty and Samantha are amazing and have been a true pleasure to work with. My ex may be a decently experienced attorney (so I am told), but he is without a doubt, no Shawn Rudisel.

A referral led me to Sean Rudisel for my custody case. After my initial meeting with him, I knew I’d found the right person. He is by far the best attorney I have encountered. His efficiency and capability helped to ease my worry during my difficult custody battle with my daughter’s mother. He advised me precisely and correctly in every meeting we had. I truly owe him a mountain of gratitude, as I am now closing out the case successfully and in a way that benefits my daughter. He truly has your best interest at heart. Thank you Sean. I appreciate everything you have done to help me through this difficult time. D.

Shawn and his team were amazing for me. I changed lawyers to him at the last minute and he was immediately all in with my case. He was attentive and honest in our meetings and he was completely organized and prepared for mediation even though we only had days to prepare together. I ended up getting the exact result I wanted and I could not have done so without his guidance, expertise and patience. I will recommend him to everyone I can.

Shawn was excellent and professional. Got my case done quick. Highly recommended.

First of all, divorce is not cheap if you don't have two willing parties that will be able to settle in mediation. 90% of all divorces end in mediation and this is what most lawyers are hoping for because they don't have trial experience. If you are early in the process, accept this now. If you know you will go to trial because your ex has no incentive to divorce, you will NOT save money. There are so many ways to lose money if your attorney is not looking for every angle from the opposing attorney that’s designed to cost you money. Believe me, coming from someone that spent a year and ultimately went to trial, I can count over $40,000 my first lawyer (not Shawn unfortunately) cost me because he didn't look at the details of what I was order to pay my ex. This didn't count the $55,000 I ultimately paid this lawyer. A year prior to actually filing for my divorce, Shawn spent a lot of time on the phone with me going over my options and never charged me a dime. I was so new to the process and remember thinking, $3000 retainer? Why so much? It shouldn’t cost that much, should it? Shawn tried to explain to me what I was in for because there was no way my ex would ever settle. We were going to trial, no matter what and that will cost money. When I finally decided to file, I went with a lawyer that had over 500 positive reviews on birdeye.com. I thought, wow… all those can’t be wrong. Well, believe me, because someone maintains this plethora of positive reviews doesn’t make them a competent lawyer. Over $50,000 later, the $3,000 retainer was nothing. I am kicking myself for not choosing Shawn to represent me in my divorce because he would have caught all these issues as they happened. After my divorce was finally finished, I needed to file another petition to change the verbiage around the sale of the marital home in the final divorce decree. Again, this is because my first lawyer (not Shawn) didn’t “catch” this change from the opposing attorney who wrote the final decree. My old lawyer drug his feet for over 8 weeks and said I owed him $3,000 for this petition and this was before we even went to court the first time! I fired that lawyer and called Shawn. Again, Shawn spent a long time on the phone with me and even reviewed the draft of the petition from my first lawyer. He immediately pointed out errors and offered a solution that saved me. Within a day, he had written a Petition for me to file myself. He only charged me for a couple of hours but spent well over 6 hours on the phone and researching my options for a poorly written divorce decree that my first lawyer signed off on. Since this petition was all procedural at this point, there was no “argument” needed by lawyers. Shawn explained I didn't need to pay a lawyer travel time and court time which is usually at least 2 court dates. Shawn saved me thousands on this alone. I filed the professional Petition, had my ex served papers, and went to court. The judge rendered his decision and Shawn even wrote the “Order” for me to bring back to the judge for him to sign. Shawn didn’t even charge me for this extra work which is unheard of for any lawyer. Believe me, there will be no other attorney to consider if I’m ever in this situation again. If you need a divorce attorney, Shawn is the man to go to. He will be your advocate and have your best interest in mind. Something my first lawyer clearly lacked.

Shawn did my divorce. He put my mind at ease and did exactly what he said he would. He is professional and worth the price. He is fantastic! I am very happy with the outcome.

Very personable and easy to work with. First time going through something like this and to have Mr. Rudisel in my corner was a huge relief throughout my whole divorce. The ladies in the office are all awesome and very helpful with any questions or concerns I may have. Talking with Mr. Rudisel was like talking with a close friend that had your back in a tough time and I appreciate everything his practice did for me.

Shawn shut it down!!!! He’s very knowledgeable about court and all the judges in Houston. There was never a time that Shawn said “I don’t know” He was WELL worth the money!

When I finally decided to file, I went with a lawyer that had over 500 positive reviews on birdeye.com. I thought, wow… all those can’t be wrong. Well, believe me, because someone maintains this plethora of positive reviews doesn’t make them a competent lawyer. Over $50,000 later, the $3,000 retainer was nothing. I am kicking myself for not choosing Shawn to represent me in my divorce because he would have caught all these issues as they happened. After my divorce was finally finished, I needed to file another petition to change the verbiage around the sale of the marital home in the final divorce decree. Again, this is because my first lawyer (not Shawn) didn’t “catch” this change from the opposing attorney who wrote the final decree. My old lawyer drug his feet for over 8 weeks and said I owed him $3,000 for this petition and this was before we even went to court the first time! I fired that lawyer and called Shawn. Again, Shawn spent a long time on the phone with me and even reviewed the draft of the petition from my first lawyer. He immediately pointed out errors and offered a solution that saved me. Within a day, he had written a Petition for me to file myself. He only charged me for a couple of hours but spent well over 6 hours on the phone and researching my options for a poorly written divorce decree that my first lawyer signed off on. Since this petition was all procedural at this point, there was no “argument” needed by lawyers. Shawn explained I didn't need to pay a lawyer travel time and court time which is usually at least 2 court dates. Shawn saved me thousands on this alone. I filed the professional Petition, had my ex served papers, and went to court. The judge rendered his decision and Shawn even wrote the “Order” for me to bring back to the judge for him to sign. Shawn didn’t even charge me for this extra work which is unheard of for any lawyer. Believe me, there will be no other attorney to consider if I’m ever in this situation again. If you need a divorce attorney, Shawn is the man to go to. He will be your advocate and have your best interest in mind. Something my first lawyer clearly lacked.

Shawn did my divorce. He put my mind at ease and did exactly what he said he would. He is professional and worth the price. He is fantastic! I am very happy with the outcome.

Very personable and easy to work with. First time going through something like this and to have Mr. Rudisel in my corner was a huge relief throughout my whole divorce. The ladies in the office are all awesome and very helpful with any questions or concerns I may have. Talking with Mr. Rudisel was like talking with a close friend that had your back in a tough time and I appreciate everything his practice did for me.

Shawn shut it down!!!! He’s very knowledgeable about court and all the judges in Houston. There was never a time that Shawn said “I don’t know” He was WELL worth the money! He does get busy at times but what do you expect when the best attorney in Houston is your lawyer? He got to the point and didn’t waste a lot of time. He told us how to strategize and win! No regrets. We 100% support Shawn and The Rudisel Law Firm!

I disagree with the negative reviews entirely. I was extremely happy with the services Attorney Rudisel provided for me. I had a difficult enforcement case that caught me entirely off guard. I was short on funds, in the middle of a move with my toddler and had very short notice of a lawsuit coming my way. When I first reached out to The Rudisel Law Firm, Angel was knowledgable about the process, very reassuring and helpful. Attorney Rudisel took my case on no questions asked and worked with my finances. He came in and completely took over the entire situation. The staff was in constant communication with me every step and had answers for all of my questions. Attorney Rudisel always took the time to walk me through the law and turned the whole case around. I now have full custody and could not be happier. He is an outstanding lawyer whom I have recommended to multiple friends, family and co-workers.

I am very pleased with Mr. Rudisels’ handing of my divorce. From the very first meeting, Shawn took the time to answer all my questions - no matter what, or when I asked them. He gave his honest opinion and best guesstimate on a timeline - which, despite my doubts, has proven to be spot on!! While the matter of divorce is in actuality a routine business for him, it is a very real, painful, highly emotional, and difficult fight for the client going through it. Shawn always had a genuine bedside manner (for lack of a better term) and never made me feel like just another case number. He always gave solid legal advise to calm my fears which were stirred up by OC, and broke things down so this non-attorney could understand how things operate. Shawn furthermore extended grace to me time after time as I learned how to navigate the SLOW road of divorce. When OC came at us with a fight, Shawn dug his heels in and took the fight to them! If you need a lawyer that isn’t afraid of the courtroom - Shawn is your man! I nicknamed him Bull Dog - because in the courtroom, that is EXACTLY what he is! This man truly shines in the courtroom! Where I saw other lawyers argue with judges, shy away from cross examination questions, or just sloppy work......I saw Shawn direct his questions with pin point accuracy to get his point across. He knew how to communicate with the courts so he didn’t ruffle feathers and end up on their bad side. Shawn had his direction set and he walked down that courtroom path with confidence (not arrogance) like I haven’t seen in a long time. If you believe you are in for a fight.....go with Bull Dog, he won’t let you down.

I was completely caught off guard after finding out I was getting divorced. Keep in mind, I married a CRIMINAL defense attorney. Divorce is hard, but divorcing an attorney, is by far the hardest. Mr. Rudisel is incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and truly one of a kind. You need someone like him by your side; especially if you’re going through a humiliating, and downright nasty divorce, such as mine. Before, and during my meeting with Mr. Rudisel, I was a nervous wreck... this divorce is (and will always be) one of the most difficult experiences of my life; frankly, I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. During mediation, I was shocked to find out my ex initially proposed, for himself to have sole primary custody of our daughter; I was in utter disbelief, this was something I did not see coming (although in retrospect I should have). Of course, Mr. Rudisel wasn't allowing that, and quickly shut their absurd proposal down; it is because of Shawn, I have shared joint custody of daughter. Although this is only the beginning, Shawn Rudisel has already proven himself to be a zealous advocate for my child, myself, and my personal needs. His staff is wonderful as well; Kirsty and Samantha are amazing and have been a true pleasure to work with. My ex may be a decently experienced attorney (so I am told), but he is without a doubt, no Shawn Rudisel.

A referral led me to Sean Rudisel for my custody case. After my initial meeting with him, I knew I’d found the right person. He is by far the best attorney I have encountered. His efficiency and capability helped to ease my worry during my difficult custody battle with my daughter’s mother. He advised me precisely and correctly in every meeting we had. I truly owe him a mountain of gratitude, as I am now closing out the case successfully and in a way that benefits my daughter. He truly has your best interest at heart. Thank you Sean. I appreciate everything you have done to help me through this difficult time. D.

Shawn and his team were amazing for me. I changed lawyers to him at the last minute and he was immediately all in with my case. He was attentive and honest in our meetings and he was completely organized and prepared for mediation even though we only had days to prepare together. I ended up getting the exact result I wanted and I could not have done so without his guidance, expertise and patience. I will recommend him to everyone I can.

Shawn was excellent and professional. Got my case done quick. Highly recommended.

First of all, divorce is not cheap if you don't have two willing parties that will be able to settle in mediation. 90% of all divorces end in mediation and this is what most lawyers are hoping for because they don't have trial experience. If you are early in the process, accept this now. If you know you will go to trial because your ex has no incentive to divorce, you will NOT save money. There are so many ways to lose money if your attorney is not looking for every angle from the opposing attorney that’s designed to cost you money. Believe me, coming from someone that spent a year and ultimately went to trial, I can count over $40,000 my first lawyer (not Shawn unfortunately) cost me because he didn't look at the details of what I was order to pay my ex. This didn't count the $55,000 I ultimately paid this lawyer. A year prior to actually filing for my divorce, Shawn spent a lot of time on the phone with me going over my options and never charged me a dime. I was so new to the process and remember thinking, $3000 retainer? Why so much? It shouldn’t cost that much, should it? Shawn tried to explain to me what I was in for because there was no way my ex would ever settle. We were going to trial, no matter what and that will cost money.
