McGuire Law Office, Waxahachie TX

I was told by my lawyer Connie in the midst of my divorce and custody case that there was nothing she could do for me. I was forced to sign my rights to my daughter over to my ex husband. I was also told after the divorce was finalized, that the judge on my case was known for being paid off. Which would explain why someone who admitted to doing cocaine on stand and having a cps filed on them by epd was able to take my baby. DO NOT LET THEM DESTROY YOUR LIFE! NO MORALS!

Let's just say I used Kent Mcguire ive been incarcerated for 4 years and now I'm going back to trial because I was innocent and now my reputation amongst other things have been tainted please do not use him he is just there for the money

The paralegal here has zero people skills. She cut me off mid-sentence numerous times and made it clear that she was put out at having to listen to me (sighing, stuttering etc.). As a paralegal, if you know you cannot provide an answer or instructions on how to obtain a specific document, then reroute the caller to the person they should speak to instead of being condescending and rude. I'm not sure how this firm gets any business with employees that don't have a concept of customer service. One star because I can't give zero.

I cannot say enough about Constance McGuire and the McGuire Law Office staff! Constance handled my case with incredible RESPECT, diligence, and compassion. There was no detail overlooked, and she went above and beyond to see me through such a difficult time. Any time I had a question, her office staff answered quickly and professionally. I could not have gotten through this season without Constance's guidance and support.

During a paid consultation she basically rushed me out of the office and wouldn’t even listen to all of my concerns. It was obvious that she didn’t have time or me nor did she care to make time. Very unprofessional. Talked with her for less than 15 minutes and the consultation was $100. For such a fee I felt that she should have listened at least to all of my concerns and at least worn her shoes. Would never recommend her to anyone

Connie McGuire is a legend in her field of work. She does not waste your time or money beating around the bush or sugar coating anything. She’s very professional and very up front and honest. She focuses on the task at hand and expects results. The staff in this office is very approachable, knowledgeable and easy to reach. I highly recommend Connie to anyone who needs legal representation.

Connie McGuire makes things happen. She’s represented me AND my son in custody cases, and we both WON. Connie is a no nonsense, hard core attorney that will tell it like it is, fight for your rights and demand results. She’s extremely professional and highly knowledgeable. I highly recommend her for representation.

Doing an investigation and the reviews for this "law office" from previous clients are not surprising!

Connie McGuire is very unprofessional.
She talks openly and loadly about cases in public areas for everyone to hear.

She could careless if you and your ex have an agreement. She sees it as her case and demands you do it her way.

Put your foot down with this old lady
And demand she listens to your request.

I highly recommend no one us her.

Worthless and a joke.don't waste your money or time.and definitely don't trust her with your future in her hands.please don't

I would give ZERO stars if I could. Kent McGuire is very neglegient in his case handling. Lacks knowledge about family court matters regarding fathers and will show up to court completely unprepared. When he last went in, he chose not to represent my husband, landed him in jail, and told us "find another lawyer I do not feel like fighting this". He was shaken when we realized I had another attorney standing at my side who we had just hired and now was a witness to his mistreatment. This was after his failure to file what we paid him for. He then denied us our invoices to see what exactly he had done with our money. I am very glad we chose to go with another since Mr. McGuire couldn't even draft correct final orders, his temporary orders were sloppy, and he conveniently "forgot" to file for the amendment of child support. We made our decision to change our attorneys quickly after he accused me of having a sugar daddy to pay him (not in a bad way but in a ooohhh you have a sugar daddy who pays your bills don't you way), said we should stop fighting and just wait until she is 12, and called my husband weird. He just wouldn't stop attacking us. My husband is a disabled Purple Heart Veteran. Kent continued to imply that we could not afford to keep paying to fight this. That wasn't the first sexual comment he made to me and I do believe my defense of myself when he made such comments is half the reason he purposely threw our case. I also believe he was working with the other attorney to get my husband put in jail. There were some odd things done between the two of them AND he didn't even object to my husband not being properly served. There was also a hearing where it says the "attorneys and parties came to an agreement", we had no knowledge about this hearing or agreement. If you come to this office, expect to be treated like a second class citizen.

Terrible lawyer kent McGuire is! Innocent until proven guilty! Not in his mind just another file to get rid of! He is unorganized refuses to do his job for his clients paying or court appointed terrible avoid this man at all cost. If he is your court appointed may i suggest you stand up and ask for another lawyer! Will not defend you properly is a complete ass and yes i hope he does read this!

I would never recommend Connie McGuire to anyone. I used her when I divorced my husband. She never returns calls and she didn't have my back in court. I was left with all the debt. He got my vehicle and was not required to get it out of my name. Now he has ran red lights and I am responsible for the tickets bc the truck is registered in my name. The final papers were wrong and I have called her office several times and can not get her to call me back. Since there was an error on the papers my ex husband has decided that he is not financially responsible for a loan he was required to pay and there is nothing I can do because Connie won't call me back. If you use her you are wasting your time and money!

I agree with both of the other clients - she is rude and unprofessional lawyer for her old age.
I would definitely not recommend anyone to her. Maybe you would have better luck using her husband instead of her. She is not for the client but usually works with the opposite spouse's attorney and try to make a deal without consulting whats best for her client. I heard that Attorney John Mallios is the best in Ellis County for Divorce/Family Law.

Mr. McGuire represented my husband and I back in 2007. Now giving him the benefit of the doubt, he may have gotten better since then, but I can say I will absolutely never use their services OR recommend them to anyone! Mr. McGuire was only unprofessional and unorganized, but he almost cost us the case by neglecting to submit the paperwork required to change jurisdiction from Dallas to Ellis county. It was not until we retained separate representation 4 months later, that I was made aware of his error! Furthermore, our opponent's attorney told us afterwards that Mr. McGuire told him we (my husband and I) did not have a case and had no chance of winning! A big "no no" in the legal world.

I do not know how else to describe this woman other than AMAZING! Hard working and considerate of your time and investment. Truly loves what she does and her office staff goes above and beyond expectations!
