"Going through a contested divorce as a dad of 2, anyone would be pretty nervous about the whole court system. It always seemed a bit tilted, you know? But, Allecia Pottinger, a Sugar Land family attorney with ALP Law Firm changed the game for me. She's sharp as a tack – really knows her stuff when it comes to family law and divorce proceedings. Allecia has this way of breaking down the legal jargon into plain English. For someone like me, a marketing exec who values clear, straight talk, it was perfect. She is great at negotiating with the other side, too, so we got things sorted without any unnecessary drama (a divorce already has enough, right?). Honestly, I couldn't be happier with how they prep clients for the case. If you're going through a tough divorce in Sugar Land, you want ALP Law Firm in your corner. Trust me, Allecia and her team are top-notch. Truly...I'm glad she was referred to me. Best Sugar Land divorce attorney. Period."
