Westheimer, Vaughn L.

I will never use this attorney! My girlfriend was ill informed of everything that was going on over a month+. She was vaguely informed in the beginning that she would be paying $ 180 per hour for his time. After 2+ weeks she was then informed that he does not work on hourly basis. She was charged $ 500+ dollars for a letter that took over two weeks to be sent out. She called and made an appointment to let him know she was no longer happy with his services and no longer wanted him on her case, he conveniently sent out the letter a couple hours before her 4pm appointment. Mine and her recommendation is to never use this snake of an attorney! I feel he took full advantage of a 24 year old girl and took all of her money. She is very unhappy and very dissatisfied!

I needed to get a court ordered name change. My situation was on the more complicated side with having several «alias» names used over the years by my mom and needed to change to my new married name. I called around to about 12 different lawyers and was comparing on cost and experience — I wanted the cheapest option with decent experience. Name changes aren’t difficult to do on your own but being from CA and not knowing TX law well, I knew I needed a lawyer buddy to get this done quick. I chose Vaughn because he’s done TONS of name changes, was located in Corpus making it easy for me to pop down there and sign docs and was the cheapest quote I got for ~$ 550. His receptionist is very sweet and super helpful. Vaughn is very professional and has a bit of a funny personality. I met with him and gave him all my information and backstory. He put everything together within 2 days and filed the following week. I had a court appointment set for the following week. We went in and did our business with the judge and were out in less than an hour. It was so easy and painless I was shocked. All in, I spent two weeks total on this and got the court ordered name change doc I needed to update DPS, etc. I don’t know about Vaughn’s other services but if you need a name change and are budget savvy, then I highly recommend his services!
