Jessica Horace is an experienced and knowledgeable attorney. She represented me in a complicated and contested adoption case. She led me through every step of the process while keeping me abreast of every situation. Jessica allowed me to make my own decisions regarding the case. She was not persuasive or demanding and did not attempt to lead me in a certain direction. She explained thoroughly the good, the bad and the ugly. She explained best case scenario vs worst case scenario and made sure I understood all aspects. Jessica stood with me through thick and thin and was always readily available for a consultation or phone call when needed. I highly recommend Jessica Horace to anyone in need of assistance in any type of family matter. She will not let you down!

Hi, my name is Karon, and I live in Houston, TX. I started my journey with adoption in 2021 with the hopes of adopting a child to give them the best life possible. In 2023, that dream came true. It began slowly as a guardian-to-adopt process and progressed quickly when I came to The Law Office of Bryan Fagan, where Jessica Horace was my attorney to complete the termination of parental rights and adoption of my son, who is thriving and happy. It is a process, but Jessica answered all my questions and was patient throughout. She responded quickly with answers, and I was always updated via email on all the processes that transpired. I am happy that I came across their ad on the internet to represent me in finalizing my adoption.”
