"She is very knowledgeable and extremely ethical. Her priority is her clients. She would be my first choice should I ever need legal representation again."
“I have worked with members of this law firm for many years. They are extremely conscientious and smart and are excellent trial lawyers. Equally important, they care about their clients and fight for you. I highly recommend them.”
“Our company has worked with Judie Sadler for many years. She has always been there when we needed her. She is an ethical, honest and knowledgeable attorney. We highly recommend her to assist with any issues you or your company may need.”
“Judie Sadler and Zaida Lazo were a fantastic team, and supported me incredibly well during my divorce. They were thoughtful, thorough and always had my emotional and financial interests top of mind. I'm truly grateful to the friend who recommended I contact Judie first. She steered me gracefully through a very difficult time.”
“Cindy, Judie, and Kristy represented me in a high conflict divorce that went to trial, followed by appeals. They are highly knowledgeable, professional, and very client service-focused. They delivered excellent outcomes (both trial and defending the appeals) in a very difficult and complex case. I would highly recommend Diggs & Sadler to anyone needing family law representation in the Houston area.”
“I wish Kevin hired Judie Sadler to handle his divorce instead of the train wreck attorney he commissioned. Fast forward a few years and an unplanned custody battle, I did my research and found Judie Sadler. Thank God for her. I’m amazed at her insight in handling complex legal issues and grateful for her aggressive approach. She’s not only an excellent trial attorney, she truly cares for our boys. One of the positive takeaways I have from my 23 relationship/marriage to an attorney is HOW TO HIRE AN EXCEPTIONAL ATTORNEY. I’m thankful for that and for Judie.”
“Diggs & Sadler is a top-notch firm. Cindy and Judie go above and beyond for their clients. Their staff is amazing. If you're going through any family law issue, this is the firm to call. I would give them 10 stars if I could.”
