O'Toole Family Law

Polly and Team were an answer to prayer for me and my family going through this brutal process. She never just told me what I wanted to hear, but offered expert advice on each and every obstacle I faced, which were many in a long drawn-out 18-month battle that ended at trial, despite our multiple attempts to mediate. She was my advocate and champion and although there are no winners in divorce, she was phenomenal in court and obtained an incredible settlement in my children's favor.

When you commit to saying “I Do!”, you never plan on saying “I Don’t”…at least I didn’t until there was not another choice.

I needed a lawyer in my corner to help me fortify a safe and righteous outcome for myself and my children...Polly used her decades of experience and brilliance - to make the outcome successful. Polly also uses her innate ability to understand and empathize with you, while being able to structure a legal agenda that will support you as you endure the challenges a divorce and life change will create. I am incredibly grateful to Polly for her expertise, her insightful and keen tactics that only a seasoned, brilliant lawyer would be able to enact on your be half, as you are having to shift into a new chapter in life...I was so blessed to have Polly O'Toole by my side and I continue to recommend her to anyone who needs the best family lawyer in Dallas and Collin County.

Polly was referred to me by several people to handle my divorce. She has a great reputation in the legal community for good reason. She made a difficult, life-altering situation as easy and painless as it could possibly be. She protected my interests and ensured that my concerns were addressed.

She listened to me and respected my choices, always giving me options and the pros and cons, while recognizing the human factor of each decision.
