I highly recommend Monks Law Firm. To begin with Mike has a demeanor that will put even the most anxious defendant at ease, help calm your nerves, and his smile says he will guide you through this process from beginning to end, never leaving you wondering, “well, what do I do know?”

Second, Mike’s Paralegal, Shanna is the compassionate arm (8 arms really) that makes it possible for Mike to be as effective as he is. You’ll notice her not only by here grace as she strides in quickly behind a busy-body Mike Monks, but the aura of peace she bestows upon clients, especially first timers. That being said she knows her stuff as well and is one of the top paralegals in Houston.

Finally, how could one review Monks Law Firm without acknowledging good old Pat Monks. Pat mainly handles civics cases, but has a way with people, that I recommended entrusting him with your traffic tickets and moving violations and watch the District Attorneys and Judges work with him (with an extremely high success rate) S soon as he starts flashing those dimples. Now, that’s not to say pay isn not sharp as a tack and will go to war for a client when need be.

Overall monks Law Firm is an excellent law for for all sorts of legal needs. I would give them a call if you have any question as to whether or not they will be able to handle your particular case. In all my experience with the Monks Law Firm it has handled any and every issue presented before them with aplomb, a sense of urgency, and the highest level of professionalism one would expect.

I rate Monks Law Firm 5 out of 5 stars!

Mike monks is amazing! I had my trial today and let me tell you this guy does not play. I had my case in brazoria county with judge warren for AFV and he got it dismissed! This was not my first time in trouble i have sevaral things on my record and i tried the "giving up my right to talk to the DA" but they were offering me 2yrs prob. Community service and some other classes and fines the same old blah blah well i finally decided to hire mike when i got set for trial and that was the best thing i did. I tried to do it myself because i hate lawyers and think they are just out to get your money and dont do squat But mike monks is the guy to go with. Highly HIGHLY recommend him!

I just edited my comment based on their quick respond to my review and it shows they care about complaint. I like this
I’m not happy with their customer service desk. When you call them, they always rush over the phone to hang up on you and looks like they don’t have time to discuss your case.
Another thing they shouldn’t leave a client in dark; giving enough information on procedures and a call a day before the court date and explain what they can do during court proceedings and ....

5 Stars - Highly recommended.
I want to publicly express my gratitude to Monks Law Firm.
Years ago they helped me a case where in an effort to honestly help law enforcement I was rewarded with serious charges.
Hardly a day goes by that I don't think about how differently my life would have turned out had I not been rescued by The Monks Law Firm.
I have used them since for employees, friends and family with success every time.
God Bless You Pat, Mike and Staff.
The work you do makes a positive difference in the lives of people in ways you may never know this side of heaven.
Best regards,

Recently I was trying to resolve a parking ticket out of Houston and after being told no by numerous law firms out of Houston and San Antonio I was finally connected with the Monks Law Firm. I spoke with Mr Monks personally and advised him of my situation, 3 parking tickets for the same violation. I told him I missed the deadline to dispute online and that i was from San Antonio and would not be able to go in person, he asked when i received the ticket and was aware that the deadline (before late fees) was the next day. He had no hesitation taking my case and said he would go the very next day. He in fact went the next day and was able to get my fees reduced by MORE THAN HALF!! Very respectable person over the phone and never once shamed me for waiting so long to get the issue resolved. Will highly recommend him to anyone i know in Houston that has a traffic issue A+++

My daughter needed help with a legal matter recently and attorney Pat Monks was there for her. He was extremely kind from our first conversation and expressed his desire to want to help her....and this was right after the hustle and bustle of the holidays. He was always available by cell - taking the time to reply to us in between his cases. He arrived to court on time, was extremely professional and was able to help her get her case resolved fairly. His assistant, Linda was extremely helpful throughout the whole process as well. I would highly recommend Pat Monks and The Monks Law Firm for your legal needs!

Outstanding!! My attorney is Mike Monk. Mr. Monk is well respected in court rooms. When the judge calls your name and ask who’s your attorney and you say Mike Monk they already know serious business is about to get done! He knows the system and works hard for his clients. Always treats you as a good customer. His communication is great, keeps you inform during the entire process. Best attorney I’ve had. Will always be recommending him and his law firm. Thank you Mike Monk.

UPDATE: Pat Monk saw my review and called me from Germany. He was out of the country for a legal conference and had another firm covering his traffic court cases while he was gone. Linda with his office also called. Both were courteous and professional, more in keeping with my expectations. Pat agreed to refund the $100 for handling the ticket. Five stars for customer service and follow-up. Although my ticket wasn't dismissed, I was ultimately happy with the way this firm handled things and would use them again. Standing behind the service you provide and making things right is rare these days.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Court started at 8:00. At 11:00 I was the only person in the courtroom. My attorney was the last lawyer to show up (9:15 a.m.). My police officer showed up and I was told she would find him and talk to him. At 10:30, still no lawyer. An attorney from another law firm showed up at 11:00, allegedly helping out my attorney. I waited so long, the judge felt bad and reduced the Deferred Disposition from $229 to $180. The lawyer for the other firm was extremely rude when I questioned where they had been and why I was left waiting an hour after everyone else's case had been disposed of. I could have done Deferred Disposition myself when I got the ticket and been 60 days into it. Instead, I paid Monks $100, the attorney was late, barely spoke to me and then was a no show on the follow-up.

What a fantastic experience...It felt like it was going to be a lottery picking an attorney to help with a complex issue that I had - but I feel like I got the winning number when I landed with Pat Monks! He is genuine, communicates well and gets the job done...something that I had tried to deal with myself over the course of a year - he got done in a week... I highly recommend Monks... and thanks again to Pat!

For the record, I have NOT purchase his service (yet, but will in the future). However I did call and asked for a free consultation. I do not expect lawyers to give me free advice on what to do in court and how it works without paying them- even with free consultation. However Pat gave me a call and he sure as hell did convince me that he'd be a good guy to get my service from. I did prior research on my speed citation and how court works as it was my first citation ever. He confirmed my information just as I needed no charge. He values potential customers and to him- everyone is a potential customer in some way or form. Do not be afraid to at least give him a call- you lose out on nothing.

We could not have asked for a better Law Firm to represent us! Very informative and thorough. Mr. Monk helped us to get an appeal dismissed that had no Jurisdiction to have been filed. Open close case due to all the facts he had prepared and submitted before the Judge. He takes his cases serious and goes above and beyond to make sure he represents his clients to the fullest.

Worst law firm I ever used I paid them $1500 for nothing and I haven't even spoke with them and they didn't even obtain a copy of my police report.. They are very rude and didn't represent me in court it was so embarrassing take my advice and never use them in court. I wasted my money and cant get it back to find me someone else that will represent me well in court.i didn't want to give them this one star but I had to in order to give a review.. I wish I would have read these reviews before going through with them..

Everyone needs an excellent attorney. I highly recommend Monks Law Firm. They are not only very professional but they really care about their clients. I know that our attorney Mike Monks took care of our daughters felony case as if it was his own child. He and his assistant made sure my daughter was ok mentally & emotionally through one of the toughest times in her young life. When my daughter came out of the courtroom and said “dismissed “ there were no words. Monks Law Firm....those are my words.

Now, I'm not familiar with the entire scope of their practice but I'll say Pat and Mike are both great to have on your team if you find yourself cited for a driving no-no. They explain things clearly and speak directly — both important for a lay person. For the peace of mind that comes with knowing your case will be handled expertly and efficiently, hire the Monks Law Firm. You'll be glad you did!

One thing guaranteed you will walk away with from the Monk Law Firm experience is great customer service, answers to your questions, and immediate action toward a resolve. I highly recommend Monks Law Firm for any traffic or criminal case needs.

I don't normally do reviews, but I honestly had the BEST experience with Monks Law Firm. I was a nervous wreck when I received 2 traffic citations that were out of my control. From the very 1st call I made to the ending follow up when my citations were dismissed within 30 minutes of arriving to court the attorneys at Monks we're Great! If you find yourself in a similar situation they will definitely be the ones to go to. They truly gave me Peace of Mind and having my citations dismissed was definitely something that not only deserves 5 Stars but is truly worth sharing my experience about them!

Paid to get my probation terminated 5 months ago would call every month to find out what was going on and got brushed off saying Mike him self would talk to the judge after multiple visits and phone calls never did just responded with “well this white boy gets busy” so we left it at that got a new lawyer and was done the next day I was off probation. Lawyer said a motion was filed but nothing was done it was just there. Thanks a lot for the help and enjoy the money for nothing !

Edit: Response was incorrect The new lawyer that was hired spoke to the judge and said nothing was ever done till we hired this new lawyer and still paid and nothing was done pure robbery.

The truth is that I never got the experience, and I'm glad I didn't.
