“I’ve worked with some of the greatest lawyers in the U.S., but for divorce –friendly or hostile – Abby is their equal. She has just the right balance of grace, experience, creativity, know-how and determination to adjust to the particulars of each situation. She works to keep it friendly but defends her clients smartly with as much tenacity and force as the situation requires.”

Gavin S.

“I feel like we are on the same team.”

Julie Lennon, General Counsel of Gaedke Group

“As the nation’s largest distributor of truck and trailer parts in the independent heavy-duty aftermarket channel, we routinely call upon Estes Thorne Ewing & Payne to handle business litigation and other matters of considerable importance to our company. They are a trusted partner of ours, with a track record of exceptional results.”

Baron Oursler, General Counsel

She was more than an excellent attorney, she treated me like a friend. She unraveled this ball of yarn, uncovered hidden information, left no stone uncovered. The final outcome left me generously rewarded. I am very grateful.”

Beth, Family Law Client

“A fervent advocate.”

Family Law Client

“I’d hate to go to battle against her; I’m glad she’s on my team.”

Douglas Johnson, President of Cosmetic Laboratories, Inc.

“You gave me so much confidence throughout this whole process. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it were for you specifically. Our initial conversations 5 years ago have stuck with me. The biggest thing you told me is “Stop being so defensive, you haven’t done anything wrong.” You also said to me that I was a victim of verbal abuse. I didn’t want to consider it or believe it – but you said it and put it out there. That was a big blow for me because I promised myself I wouldn’t be a victim of any abuse. So thank you for calling that out – because it forced me to accept it and work through things.”

Family Law Client

She is both an exceptional attorney and a genuinely good person. She was strategic, practical, patient, thorough and very detail oriented in handling all aspects of my case. She was also generally unflappable and conducted herself in a very professional, no-nonsense fashion. I fully intend to refer her to friends who end up requiring family law counsel.”

Tim, Family Law Client

“No surprises, they keep me informed.”

Robert M. Reed, Jr., Senior Vice President and General Counsel

“Led me through easily the most difficult time of my life.”

“She thoroughly and professionally represented me and I would highly recommend her in any family law, divorce, custody or prenup case. I am also an attorney and know that she did the absolute best job she could on my case.”

Caroline, Family Law Client

“They give me great peace of mind.”

Jimmy Dockal, CFO of SRS Real Estate Partners

“My family and I owe them everything.”

Family Law Client

She and her team were amazing! They helped me in my custody case. She was upfront and honest about her fees, the probable outcome of the case, the likelihood of my ex paying my fees and never once suggested the truth be stretched. She was all about what was best for my child first then me, that’s the way it should be. She always kept me informed, giving me advice and keeping me calm when the opposing attorney was untactful and unprofessional. She and her team won my case with their head held high.”

Susie, Family Law Client

“Family Law and the matters surrounding it can be the scariest time for any parent trying to protect the best interest of their child. I would not put that trust in anyone but the team at Estes Thorne Ewing & Payne.”

Family Law Client

“They helped us navigate through multiple legal proceedings of the foster care system, and finally the adoption of our son. From our first consultation to the finalization of the adoption, she was a knowledgeable, compassionate, and determined advocate who consistently went above and beyond for our family.
“Beyond her legal expertise, she was a true ally and advocate for our family, showing genuine care and concern for our well-being throughout the process. 
“We can confidently say that our son would not be a part of our family today if it wasn’t for the team at Estes Thorne Ewing & Payne. We are forever grateful for her and all she has done for our family.”

Family Law Client

“If you need family law help in Texas, she is the lawyer you should have working for you She truly cares about her clients as if they are friends. Her team is exceptional as well and manages tasks in a way most financially responsible for clients.”

Family Law Client

She was simply outstanding. She listened first to understand the dynamics of my family situation. She then presented options. She was conscientious and compassionate about a delicate and difficult situation. In a controversial situation or a collaborative situation, I highly recommend her.”

Chris, Family Law Client

She represented me when my husband and I worked out our prenuptial agreement. She listened very carefully to my objectives for the agreement. Then, she patiently explained potential scenarios, many of which I had not considered. She helped me prioritize my concerns and made suggestions as to how to ensure they were addressed in the agreement. She was efficient with my time and very effective in obtaining the results I had envisioned. She is a very bright and considerate professional. I have recommended her to many of my friends and will continue to do so.”

Kerri, Family Law Client

I highly recommend her as an attorney. She is extremely knowledgeable and responsive. She led me through easily the most difficult time of my life with a high level of professionalism. She is very easy to get along with and very considerate. I intend to use her for all my legal questions pertaining to family law in the future.”

David, Family Law Client

Once I met with her, I knew that she was right for me. I had 3 other divorce attorneys working on the same case. She was by far the most professional, understanding and gave me the attention I needed. She responded quickly to my phone calls and questions. I also liked the way she “makes things happen.” Thank you, I am grateful that I can move on with my life and spend quality time with my kids.”
