The peace and comfort we feel is priceless…

Sonya, we honestly cannot express to you and your staff how much we appreciate all of your effort and hard work fighting for [our son] and us alike. The peace and comfort we feel having him all the time and being able to fully take care of him is priceless and we are so appreciative to you for that.

A.M., Beaumont, Texas

Made me feel like I had an army by my side…

What you have done with my case, the preparation, your opening, and the entire hearing were outstanding. We haven’t work much closely but I felt like I’ve known you for a long time. You have had my back and I felt so comfortable the entire time; you’ve made me feel like I had an army by my side and I can’t write you without tears. Sonya, I will forever be grateful and will pray that God bless and protect your family as you have protected me.

M.S., Boston, Massachusetts

I would recommend her to anyone needing legal services…

Ms. Coffman is very warm, friendly, understanding and complimentary. I would recommend her to anyone needing legal services. I really appreciate her help and the time she gave me.

A.B., Beaumont, Texas

Eternally in your debt…

Thank you for all your help. I am eternally in your debt.

D.B., Nederland, Texas

Splendid performance…

Thanks again for your splendid performance… I never expected that we would succeed in accomplishing what you did.

M. P., Beaumont, TX

I can’t thank all of you enough…

I can’t thank all of you enough…for what you all have done for me. …I am very pleased with the service I received from you. I recommend you to anyone who asks me who I used.

M.L., Nederland, Texas

Thank you again, for your kindness…

Your advice and answers to my questions are overwhelmingly appreciated! Thank you again, for your kindness.

V.M., Nederland, Texas

I would 100% recommend Mrs. Coffman…

I absolutely loved Mrs. Coffman. She handled my child custody and child support case. She took her time … explaining everything and completely making sure I was aware of all my options. … She is very thorough and probably the sweetest most caring person I have met in a while. I would 100% recommend Mrs. Coffman, especially for a child custody or child support case.

A.F., Beaumont, Texas

You are the best of the best…

You and the rest of the staff were my blessing from God! I will never forget you and will always be grateful to you ladies for everything you have done for my family and me!! May God bless you all always and forever! You are the best of the best. From the very bottom of my heart and the hearts of my children…thank you for everything!

V.P., Palm Bay, Florida

Sincere gratitude and thanks…

I know this is long overdue – but it comes from both of us with sincere gratitude and thanks for your invaluable expertise and assistance – and especially for your friendship.

R.D., Beaumont, Texas

Everything I hoped for my child custody case…

The Coffman Law firm (Sonya) is everything I hoped for my child custody case. Her staff at the law firm was extremely understanding towards my case and moved swiftly to begin the process. Sonya is very professional and her knowledge of the law is supreme. Her delivery in the court room is unlike any I have ever seen before, very precise and elegant with a twist of flare. Sonya takes no prisoners and in a custody case, this is exactly what I needed. I would definitely use her again.

D.J., Orange, Texas

You did a great job…

Thank you so much for your time and your help to resolve the issues with [my former spouse]. I think you did a great job.

J.D., Vidor, Texas

Don’t know what we would do without you…

Thank you SO much for today. We appreciate everything you have done and do for us, and all of the hard work (especially over the weekend). We are so thankful that we have you, and don’t know what we would do without you.

M.G., Plano, Texas

Sonya, you are awesome…

We did it. Sonya, you are awesome and probably the best lawyer that I had during this long drawn-out process. Thank you for everything!

K.A., Allen, Texas

You are truly a woman of integrity…

Thank you very much for this and everything that you’ve done for us. You made me feel as confident as I could feel through all of this and I appreciate it very much. I’ve had to use three family law attorneys before and never felt like they really cared too much. When there’s a child involved you really want to feel like your advocate truly cares about the situation, and you made me feel that way. You are truly a woman of integrity and a good friend as well. Thank you very much for everything.

N.S., Beaumont, Texas

Very confident to have your team…

I wanted … to thank you and your staff for the great job in the matter of my divorce. I was proud and very confident to have your team working my case. Thanks again for taking this case and representing me.

J.B., Nederland, Texas

I would 100% recommend Mrs. Coffman, especially for a child custody or child support case…

A.F., Beaumont, Texas

Words can’t express how much I appreciate all you have done…

Words can’t express how much I appreciate all you have done to help me the past year, and especially the past week. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

B.P., La Porte, Texas

I was very lucky that your firm was the first firm that I called…

Thank you so much for everything you’ve done. I know it’s your job, but I know that with all people within a profession, there are those who just do what they have to in order to get paid and to get by. You, on the other hand, are very good at your job and I was very lucky that your firm was the first firm that I called.

C.R., Indian Head, Maryland

So blessed that you are our advocate…

Just want to send you a quick note of thanks for working so hard for [us]. I am so blessed that you are our advocate and there is no one – near or far – New York to LA – that I would rather have than you fighting for us.

L.D., Beaumont, Texas

We are so grateful…

You’ll never know how much we appreciate everything you have done. We have had a long last couple of months and I can say today it was all worth it. … We are so grateful and appreciative of everything you have done for us. …. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

K.R., Silsbee, Texas

Held my hand through each step of the divorce process…

From the time I first met with you, I knew I had the best attorney and confidant possible. You and your wonderful staff held my hand through each step of the divorce process. I will never forget all of the kindness and patience everyone involved exhibited.

K.N., Beaumont, Texas

I’m glad this is finally behind us…

I just wanted to thank you again for all of your help, advice, and patience. I’m glad this is finally behind us… We appreciate all of the work you’ve done for us.

D.D., Jefferson County, Texas

A peace I have not felt for so very long…

Words cannot express my gratitude to you for your professionalism, graciousness, empathy and knowledge. I feel so very blessed to be retaining you as my counsel. Doing so has already given me a peace I have not felt for so very long and the confidence I will need to see this ordeal to its finality.

J.J., Beaumont, Texas

Very pleased with the results…

Thanks for all the hard work. I’m very pleased with the results. … You have always done such a wonderful job with my messes.

D.H., Lumberton, Texas

M.B., Corpus Christi, Texas

You are a wonderful attorney…

Sonya… thank you again. You are a wonderful attorney and I appreciate all of your hard work and the work of the support team.

C.B., Beaumont, Texas

You guys are an absolute miracle…

I wanted to say thank you, more than you will ever know. There is no doubt in my mind that no other law firm on this planet could have [handled this matter]. You guys are an absolute miracle to my little family.

B. F., Beaumont, Texas

Thank you Sonya for being here for my children and believing in me…

Thank you Sonya for being here for my children and believing in me. It has helped me with my health and made me stronger in my faith in God. I know today God has placed certain individuals in my life to guide me through this horrible nightmare.

C.S., Lumberton, Texas

A much needed inspiration and ray of hope…

Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedule for me. You are truly a much needed inspiration and ray of hope!

A.S., Hamshire, Texas

Thanks for always being there for me…

I can’t begin to tell you how much of a special blessing you have been in my life. Thanks for always being there for me and listening.

P.M., Beaumont, Texas

I appreciate your grace and execution…

It is hard to believe that we met over a year ago as you helped walk me through the toughest time of my life. I appreciate your grace and execution on my case more than I will ever be able to explain. And now, a year later, I believe, I may need you and your staff’s services again.

A.D., Lumberton, Texas

You have been such a blessing…

Thank you so much Mrs. Coffman! You have been such a blessing to me and my family!

R.D., Nederland, Texas

This degree of integrity is in very short supply these days…

Although my case (divorce) had a low degree of complexity and was relatively uncontested, I was amazed at the high level of professionalism and commitment to the highest ethical standards possible on the part of Sonya and her organization. I was also very impressed with the level of stewardship of resources by keeping costs at a minimum. This degree of integrity is in very short supply these days, and how refreshing it was to have Sonya and her team assist me through this difficult time.

M.C., Brazoria County, Texas

It was a great feeling having you on my side…

Thanks for all you did for me and my boys. You listened, you cared, you were interested, and very informative. You explained my choices and the benefits of each, and helped me so much along the way. It was a great feeling having you on my side. Thanks again to you and your staff.

S.D., Silsbee, Texas

It was a huge weight that was lifted – for all of us!

I just wanted to thank you for doing such a great job for us. When we got home, we immediately told the kids and they were thrilled. [Our daughter] has been more carefree, happy and joyful than I’ve ever seen her. It was a huge weight that was lifted – for all of us! We so appreciate your dedication and your belief in our case. We could not have hoped for a better outcome. Please know that your hard work has made a huge difference in a little girl’s life. And in all of our lives!

R.C., Lumberton, Texas

Thank you so much for researching all this material…

I read over the information on the countersuit material about the theft of my personal papers. … Thank you so much for researching all this material. I am so glad I found you!

J.B., Georgetown, Texas

We do appreciate you more than words can express…

Thanks so much for everything you’ve done and for all that you continue to do…. We do appreciate you more than words can express.

S.C., Beaumont, Texas

I will totally refer people your way if the need arises…

I wanted to thank you for helping with this dreaded thing that we call divorce. This has been the most traumatic experience I have ever been through. You and your team treated me with kindness, respect and empathy during this tough time. While I truly believe that divorce is against God’s will, I know that he has put you here to guide good people through this process as easily as possible. Please know that even though I pray it never happens, I will totally refer people your way if the need arises.

J.S., Jefferson County, Texas

a special blessing you have been in my life!

I can’t even begin to tell you how much of a special blessing you have been in my life! Thanks for always being there for me…

P.M., Beaumont, Texas

Helped me to see the forest from the trees…

Again, thank you so much Attorney Coffman. You are truly a godsend; there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t look up to the heavens and thank God for what He has brought me through and how He orchestrated the most excellent one-of-a-kind attorney. Your words last week were so powerful and helped me to see the forest from the trees and reminded me what I’m walking away with to help me start life over and that I have a home paid for. … Thank You. Thank You. Thank You!

J.G, Kennebunkport, Maine

Professionalism and well timed tenderness…

Thank you to all for helping make this experience a little less painful. Your professionalism and well timed tenderness helped us through some difficult moments.

K.N., Kirbyville, Texas

You and your team have made the difference between justice and inequity…

Thank you and your team so very, very much. This battle to get my kids has taken an enormous toll on me. Thank you for your expertise, caring and professionalism. You and your team have made the difference between justice and inequity.

B.H., Beaumont, Texas

You are a very special person to me…

You are a very special person to me and will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for putting up with me at my worst and thank you for believing in me.

A.B., Beaumont, Texas

what a relief I felt when you agreed to represent me…

You need to know what a relief I felt when you agreed to represent me… Thank you for everything.

L.A., Port Neches, Texas

Circle your wagons…

[A wise woman] once told me that in a time of need, ‘circle your wagons.’ I found that in my time of need … I had NO wagons. That is until you came along and saved the day!! I hope one day I can repay the excellent service and be there for you.

P.C., Silsbee, Texas

Humbling to work with such a professional and capable group…

I cannot begin to express the pleasure it was to finally meet you yesterday. Not only is it humbling to work with such a professional and capable group, it is particularly pleasing to see that you are all such good and wonderful people as well.

A.K., Port Neches, Texas

Sonya is a bulldog in the courtroom…

Words cannot express my gratitude for the Coffman Law Firm crossing my path! … Sonya is a bulldog in the courtroom. She did a magnificent Job defending and uncovering truth and justice to achieve a new spousal support order with extra perks that is better than the original order (didn’t think it could get better). She surely is sugar and spice mixed! And for all you lovely ladies, thank you for the tremendous job that makes a divorce court moment achieve a positive end. It is everyone working together that makes it all possible. Blessings!

J.G., Kennebunkport, Maine

It means so much…

I just wanted to take the time to let you know how much we appreciate you taking our case with the boys and closing it the way you did. You certainly didn’t have to do that, but it means so much.

P.S., Groves, Texas

You are very wonderfully made…

Just a small note to say what a beautiful and loving heart you have. You are very wonderfully made.

A.F., Houston, Texas

You were so well-prepared and able to answer every attack…

I just wanted you to know that you did an amazing job yesterday. You were so well-prepared and able to answer every attack question thrown at you, and with magnanimity. I don’t know how you stay so cool … but I’m certainly glad you were on my side. It really did turn out so much better than it could have. Thank you for everything.

M.W., Beaumont, Texas

D.B.K., Beaumont, Texas

Words cannot begin to express my appreciation…

Words cannot begin to express my appreciation for you and all that you did today. Similarly, all that you have done to prepare, all the time you have given me, and the quality and care you administered to my case have all been noticed and appreciated.

J.J., Sour Lake, Texas

Supreme knowledge of the law…

Mrs. Coffman is a professional in every sense of the word. I have been working with her for some time now and she and her staff have always been caring, compassionate and willing to put in the extra time and effort to ensure I had the best chance at a positive outcome. If you are able to, and do not hire her, you are doing yourself and your case a disservice. Thanks to Sonya’s hard work, her professionalism, and supreme knowledge of the law, I was able (as a Father) to win custody of both of my daughters). Sonya is an absolute beast in the courtroom and has no fear whatsoever in fighting for you. I cannot say enough about her and her wonderful staff (I’m looking at you Melissa). I have never been treated with anything but kindness, compassion and professionalism from everyone involved in her firm and would absolutely recommend her services to anyone. Thank you again Sonya for making a positive difference in all of our lives.

D.P., Killeen, Texas

You were a light in a dark night for me…

S.C., Houston, Texas

Such a positive experience…

Again I have to mention that I have never had such a positive experience as dealing with Mrs. Coffman … . I really appreciate the time, understanding and effort spent explaining things to me.

M.B., Vidor, Texas

Our adoption was finalized last fall…

Mrs. Coffman kept us informed on every aspect of the case and explained all of our options clearly. … We always felt that she was well prepared, even “over prepared” if there is such a thing. She is extremely professional, but has great empathy for the family. Our adoption was finalized last fall and we felt we were blessed to have her as our attorney.

E.M., Beaumont, Texas

Your heart is huge…

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for meeting with me. Your advice and words of wisdom released me to a more peaceful time of my life, with blessings.” … “Thank you for being who you are. For being not only a spectacular attorney, but a person I admire and consider more than just my counsel. Your heart is huge. You are sincere and caring. For all that wonderfulness, I am blessed to have crossed paths with you.

D.R., Galveston, Texas

I’m way better off now…

Thank you for everything you have done with helping me be able to move in with my grandparents. It truly meant the world to me for what you helped us do. I’m way better off now. Thank you so much.

K.R., Jefferson County, Texas

You exceeded my expectations…

Sonya, I would like to thank you and your staff for everything you have done for me and my son over the last several months. When I made the decision to file for divorce I wanted to find someone who would truly represent me, and have the best interest for my child as the number one priority. After sitting down with you the first time, I was confident that you had the experience, character, and compassion that I was looking for. Throughout the entire process you and your staff were extremely professional and very helpful. I have heard so many stories from people who could not get their attorney to return calls, or who hired attorneys who simply ignored their goals and settled for something far from what they were hoping for. Your staff is very knowledgeable and always available by phone/email to answer the day-to-day questions. Furthermore, my goals were always front and center and a part of every conversation. I often hear people say “I can’t afford to hire that kind of attorney”… to those individuals I would say …”You can’t afford NOT to hire this caliber of attorney!” When we left the court room I turned to you and said “You exceeded my expectations”…. I believe that says it all.

S.T., Nederland, Texas

Thank you for the peace..

Sonya, thank you. You are incredible. My gut tells me I will be calling you in a week or two, but for now, thank you for the peace.

L.S., Beaumont, Texas

You gave me the courage and the drive to go out there and do it…

Thank you so much for being such a blessing in my life. You gave me the courage and the drive to go out there and do it. … Thank you for supporting me and believing in me.

M.W., Beaumont, Texas

You’ve actually comforted me more than you know, putting some of my fears to rest…

I’d like to sincerely thank you and the entire staff for assisting me throughout this troublesome period of my life. … I’m quite impressed with your patience with me as I fire off 21 questions every other day. You’ve actually comforted me more than you know, putting some of my fears to rest.

W.K., Beaumont, Texas

I was very lucky that your firm was the first firm that I called…

C.R., Indian Head, Maryland

We appreciate your efforts…

Words are inadequate to express the joy, relief and gratitude [we] feel. Sonya & Christie: Each of you played a part in this miraculous outcome. We so appreciate your efforts.

B.V. Beaumont, TX

You all have a special place in my heart…

I want to thank your team for getting me through this dark time in my life. I hope you know what it means to feel you have someone on your side. I appreciate all the work. You all have a special place in my heart.

T.P., Bevil Oaks, Texas

Thanks for your blessings!

Thanks to you and everyone that helped me through this horrible time in my life. Everyone at the law firm is very professional and concerned about their clients. Sonya was great, as I knew she would be. Thanks for your blessings!

J.S., Orange County, Texas

Thank you just isn’t enough…

There just aren’t enough words to describe the relief and the happiness our family feels from the outcome [of our case]. When we left the courtroom and called the girls to tell them the news, they all started crying. You can’t imagine the relief and joy our entire family feels knowing they will never be separated. I still tear up thinking about everything. Sonya did an amazing job. Liz, thank you for putting up with our sometimes difficult attitude due to frustration. Lisa, thank you for all the prayers. The trial started with concerns, but with each testimony I could see God leading the way. As I told Sonya, the right thing was done that day. Truly blessed that we walked into Sonya’s office two years ago, she truly is the best. I have learned through my management role that we’re only as good as the team behind us, so please give everyone a pat on the back. Again there’s just not enough words to describe our gratitude and the impact on all of are lives. Thank you just isn’t enough.

A.L. and T.L., Hutto, Texas

You were all we prayed for…

Thank you so much for all you did for us over the past several months… We both agree that we’d choose to work with you again—you were all we prayed for.

T.S., Austin, Texas

I am thankful year round for you guys…

This January will make two years that we have had full custody of [our son] and I cannot imagine our lives any different. I am thankful year round for you guys making that possible and want to remind you that the hours you put in and the hard work you do has a profound impact on tons of families just like ours.

M.M., Beaumont, Texas

Don’t know what I would have done without you…

You certainly are aware that a divorce is a life changing event and one that can be devastating if not handled correctly. Your expertise on how to manage my … predicament was invaluable. I don’t know what I would have done without you.

T.W., Dallas, Texas

A bright spot..

All of you have been a bright spot in the midst of an otherwise difficult situation.

M.W., Orange, Texas

A huge load has been lifted from my shoulders…

I feel like a huge [financial] load has been lifted from my shoulders. All of this was made possible because I had the most caring, Christian and best attorney ever! … You will never know what a difference you made in my life. I will always be grateful and sing your praises and that of your amazing staff.

K.N., Beaumont, Texas

Thank you for all the time you have spent with me…

There are not enough kind words to express to you [to say] thank you. Thank you for all the time you have spent with me, your attentive listening, your compassion, and for all the strenuous work you are about to put in to help my girls and I. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

A. H., Jefferson County, Texas

You accomplished in two months what I have been trying to get done for years…

Thank you for the excellent job you did for me. You accomplished in two months what I have been trying to get done for years. Your firm is the firm to call.

T.L., Greer, South Carolina

Made me feel secure during the process…

I would like to thank you and [your staff] for all you did for me. While I had mixed emotions about my divorce, I knew it had to be done. Having you represent and take care of me made me feel secure during the process. … I really appreciate all you did for me. You were always so helpful. You answered all my questions and listened to all my stories, and it helped me out tremendously. Thanks again.

D.W., Beaumont, Texas

Thank you for giving me back my life…

Life without my children is meaningless. Thank you for giving me back my life. Thank you for also fighting for the betterment of their little lives as well. I just can’t thank you and your firm enough. I can tell you really do care. Thank you, we will never, ever forget the difference you have made in the three of our lives.

B.H., Beaumont, Texas

You were my first choice…

With sincere gratitude, we want to tell you thank you. You were my first choice when I was seeking legal assistance and I am so very appreciative that you were able to take on my case. Working with you and your team has been such a pleasurable experience and for that I am very thankful. From the beginning you helped ease concerns and worries and you truly made this experience pleasant and bearable. Thank you not only for your legal knowledge, but for your kindness. That in itself has been so comforting during this experience.

R. L., Sealy, Texas

Your hard work is greatly appreciated…

Our family cannot thank you enough for the joy that you have brought back into our lives. Your hard work is greatly appreciated.

K.S., Cedar Springs, Michigan

So good at your profession…

[We] want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your skill and your courage to bring up this new [case] angle. You were the only one to notice what you found. I … am very grateful that you are so good at your profession. I am truly blessed to have you on our team.

E.S., Beaumont, Texas

You all were compassionate and understanding…

Sonya, thanks again for all your hard work on my case. You and your staff put much time and effort into it and most importantly, you all were compassionate and understanding. I’m still thinking about how well we were prepared and not so much on the other side.
