Patrick and team are very responsive, and prepared a winning case for trial the equivalent of the D-Day invasion. Extremely professional, friendly and always honest with me. Mission accomplished!

The immigration process is not easy by any means. But Mr. Slaughter and his amazing staff was able to take charge and were successful in getting my husband here as quickly as possible. I would highly recommend them for any immigration process the are kind, caring and very professional.

Patrick is a godsend! Ugly divorce that includes a true gold digger on the other side. Patrick is extremely reasonable and a master negotiator. Always thinks ahead and turned my nightmare into just a little more than a bad dream. Don’t know how I would have done better under any circumstance. Highly recommended, especially when you are someone that works hard and doesn’t want to give the farm away to an undeserving ex...

My wife and I were clients at another firm in town but we left and came here. The people here are great. Patrick is no-nonsense, tells it like it is, and won't back down. Luke is caring and attentive to clients. Debbie was so helpful in gathering information. Zena always kept us in the loop about things that were filed and our bill We got the total package when we came here, it was the right choice for us. .

My divorce could have been the scariest, most awful thing I've ever gone through. It wasn't. These lawyers are amazing. I dealt mainly with Mr. Shipley. He was kind, honest, attentive, smart, and aggressive. He always returned calls and emails quickly- even on weekends. He answered my questions, kept me calm, and got me an amazing result. I couldn't be happier.

I'm never getting married again, but if I ever need a lawyer I'll call them first.

Mr. Slaughter and his firm are the epitome of professionalism and humanity. Their expertise and knowledge with the immigration system with all its complexity is spot on. They put their clients at ease with the answers they provide to their questions. We would recommend them to our friends and family anytime, knowing that they will be in good hands.

I grossly and wrongly left negative review yesterday for this attorney. Apparently Galaxy phones do no accurately keep call info as the other attorney office before mentioned was shown as the time of these calls. Apologies to this law firm for my mistake as when you are in my current situation it's easy for tension to be high and Android phone technology just adding to the frustration. Would definitely recommend this office now that I have my offices straight. Although in this particular town I can understand why a consultation fee before one actually establishes relevance would be proper protocol. No one wants to leave this wretched town more than I so appreciate further clarity.

LaFevor and Slaughter have been exceptional in helping us with our case. Attorney Slaughter took time in listening intently, and we felt he really understood the details of our situation and wanted to help us. His staff was friendly and quick to return our calls or emails. I would highly recommend.

This firm really is a great asset to anyone seeking to resolve a legal issue. Whatever your need(s) might be, they will rush and really jump through hoops to get it done, even if that means going down 17 floors, and jogging down the street to the City-County Building on the fly--as sometimes things just can't wait! lol Additionally, if you have an extreme situation where emergency access to them in required, their are options available to you around the clock. All of the attorneys there that I personally dealt with, were down to earth, reasonable, and worked very well with respect to all persons involved (i.e. judge, myself, other party [despite their insanity]) and ultimately they are simply great people to have going to court with/for you. While yes, I could always ask for a better experience in the courtroom (I am sure many people could), what I cannot ask any better for is the well-rounded, researched, and collaborated decision making, recommendations, and results I received with these guys... Hands down, I really could not ask for better. That includes anyone at this firm that represented and/or assisted me.

With all the praise, I definitely recommend this attorneys office to anyone who wishes to have a smooth and beneficial outcome to their legal case--they are quite determined to achieve it! However, the one thing I must warn you about (so you are fully satisfied with their representation), they do not work for free (as you would, of course, suspect), they are not cheap, and you may go above and beyond your initial retainer. In fact, I would probably plan on that, as they bill in an upward estimate on EVERYTHING--literally--and they invoice every month on the 1st. It will be loaded with a description of anything and everything (I.e. If they chewed a piece of gum on your behalf, best believe your getting invoiced for the pack of gum from which it came, and also for the time it took to chew all the flavor out. haha. Well, maybe not quite that bad, but you get where i'm going with it). But, hey...They are good at what they do, and they are well aware of it. It's a classic "you get what you paid for" and you can't be upset about it, because it only makes good business sense to do so. My advise is, when your providing that C.C. number for payment, just remember in the back of your head that it is all for the greater good and for your favorable judgement to be. All others (those that have limited resources), if you don't have the income to afford these guys, you may do financially better with a different attorney or group; perhaps one that is less established. That's all I have...

Thank you everyone at LaFevor & Slaughter for a great outcome, and for everything you have helped me with. Hopefully, I will not need your service again but, if I were to, you are certainly first on my list!

Best regards,
WDC

I paid 100 dollars for the initial consultation. After the consultation, I tried for several days to reach the office. I left voice mails and used the message board. I could not get one simple question answered before I paid my retainer fees. I DO NOT feel comfortable hiring a firm that is too busy to return a phone call. I hired a different attorney that will get the job done. The 100 dollar consultation fee should be returned to me. I never received a full consultation because my questions were never fully answered by Mr. Slaughter. I feel lucky I decided on a different attorney. Moreover, he talked to me over the phone without a consultation fee.

From the office manager; to the firm's paralegal; to Mr. Slaughter himself, everyone was professional, knowledgeable, and timely with their responses. After working with two other attorneys, when I met Mr. Slaughter, I finally felt like someone had my back. He and his team were the light at the end of a dark tunnel. Mr. Slaughter prevented me from having to return to court and brought much needed closure to a never-ending battle with my former spouse. I would recommend LaFevor & Slaughter without reservation.

Patrick and his firm take pride in their work and the people they’re working for and it shows. They fight for what they believe in and they believe in their clients. It’s one thing to be a good lawyer, but to have integrity and ethics puts you above the others. I can’t thank him enough for caring about me and my family’s wants and needs and taking time to help us.

Me or my husband does not recommend this office to anyone expecally if they are in a custody case they do not communicate with their clients and say their gonna file stuff and don’t and gave us wrong advice and they never no the answer to anything when asked they wanted 3000 dollars every time we turned around and didn’t do anything to help us protect and keep our kids out of the bad environment we tried to keep them out of in the first place unless u like throwing away money and don’t care about the out come These are the lawyers for u

I would very highly recommend this Law team to anyone, especially fathers fighting for their children. He was amazing the day of record, and the whole staff are absolutely wonderful people. I cannot begin to extend my thanks to Mr and Mrs Slaughter as they helped me finally stand up and get my voice heard.

As a highly satisfied individual who retained Mr. Slaughter, I can say with confidence that he is the best one can retain. He is compassionate, knowledgeable, and will do whatever it takes to serve his clients. Also, he will always return your calls or emails, which is amazing. He has definitely retained the lost art of communication.

Mr. LeFever is an amazingly compassionate lawyer. He handled all of the issues with my divorce and let me know exactly what to expect from the judge. I recommend him at any opportunity.

Patrick Slaughter has been an incredible resource for me and my family. Patrick knows the law and the procedures necessary to produce results. He has always made time for me when needed and made me feel like my case is the most important. He has worked hard guiding me through the difficult process of Immigration for my family members always providing honest and true guidance. As a retired Marine, having someone like Patrick with his high integrity and tireless work effort has proven invaluable. Patrick and his office have my highest recommendation for anyone in need of counsel.

I can not tell you how much I appreciated Mr slaughter and Mr Shipley for the immediate attention, professionalism, and aggression they showed on my case. I had a prior atty that I had to chase down, beg for answers, and never followed through. I was so frustrated and felt no one had my back but from the initial phone call til everything was resolved 2 months later... I felt I had someone who cared, had my best interest, and wasn't going to let me get pushed around any longer. From prompt returns of calls to immediate access to paperwork it was such a relief to deal with that level of professionalism. I highly recommend this law firm and am so thankful to them.

The whole staff here is very welcoming and professional. They will work together and do what they need to do to help their clients. They take time with each case and would not tell you anything just to get your money or business. I highly recommend them.

If you're looking for a kind, caring, compassionate, highly intelligent, hard working, advocate...LOOK NO FURTHER!!!! Patrick Slaughter is all that and more. He truly CARES about his clients, their lives and the outcomes he is seeking. God has gifted him with a great sense of humor and he is so humble. He works hard and won't stop until he gets what's right for his clients. And if he thinks he can't help you, he is not the kind of lawyer who just takes your money knowing he can't help you. He will tell you I can't help you or refer you to someone who can. What a better world we'd have if ALL lawyers were half as good as this man. My family and I love and appreciate all his hard work on our behalf. Keep his number on your phone and in your contacts because he's a long term kind of lawyer. He is a great guy and I'm so glad we found him and he helped us. Thank you Patrick and Zena. We are so grateful to you both for your wonderful representation!!!

If you're looking for help with legal matters and want representation who will have your best interests at heart then call Patrick Slaughter. My case was super rare, complicated, and had the potential to financially devastate my family for years to come. It required intelligence, attention to detail, and a disciplined approach to legal research. From the moment Mr. Slaughter returned my call I knew I had hired the right guy. He and his team stayed in contact, kept me updated, consulted me on decision making and really kept me at ease. I especially appreciated the fact that although I knew Mr. Slaughter had other clients, I always felt like I was the only client the firm had, which is exactly what you want when you hire an attorney. I had his focus and attention when he was communicating with me and he respected my time as a client. This is something that's lost on alot of professionals these days. I could go on and on about the services provided by Mr. Slaughter and his staff but you can just google him and see the many other satisfied clients that he's had. Mr. Slaughter is an A player that cares about his clients and the quality of his work. He will give you honest advice and he will keep his word. If those things are important to you.....then you've found the right team!
