Four ways to reach us
Give us a call
Dial in and we’ll decide whether a consultation is what you want or need.
Book a consult
Pick a time that works, by phone or video.
Good for anything that is not urgent. Keep it general until we represent you.
Not sure it is worth a call? It probably is. A large share of our consults end with “here is what you are dealing with, and you do not need to hire anyone for it.” That is a perfectly good outcome.
What happens after you reach out
01
We respond
Within one business day, usually sooner. If you called and we missed you, we call back — we do not leave people waiting.
02
Consult
Phone or video. You describe the situation; we tell you what it is, what it involves, and what it costs. No pressure and no pitch.
03
You decide
If we are a fit, we send an engagement agreement with the scope and price in writing. Nothing starts until you sign it.
Please do not send confidential information yet. Until we have run a conflicts check and both signed an engagement agreement, we have no duty of confidentiality to you and what you send is not privileged. Keep first messages general — we will tell you when it is safe to send the details. See our disclaimer for more.
Where we practice
Based in Houston and serving clients across the region. Probate venue follows the county where the person lived, so if you are unsure which county your matter belongs in, that is one of the first things we sort out.
Jireh Davis is licensed to practice law in the State of Texas only. Where a matter involves property or a proceeding in another state, we coordinate with counsel licensed there.
Frequently asked questions
What happens in the first consultation?
There is no obligation. We use it to understand your situation, tell you what it involves, and tell you what it would cost. Sometimes the answer is that you do not need a lawyer at all, and we say that too.
How quickly will I hear back?
We aim to respond to messages within one business day. If something is time-sensitive — a probate deadline, a contract you are being asked to sign, a closing date — call rather than emailing, and say so when you reach us.
Can I text you?
Yes. (281) 849-9575 accepts calls and texts. Texting is often the fastest way to reach us for a quick question or to confirm an appointment. Please do not text confidential details before we represent you.
Does contacting you make me a client?
No. Sending a message through this site, emailing, texting, or leaving a voicemail does not create an attorney-client relationship and does not make what you send confidential or privileged. We can only represent you after a conflicts check and a signed engagement agreement. Until then, please keep messages general.
Do you meet in person or by video?
Both. Consults and planning meetings work well by phone or video, which saves you a trip across Houston traffic. Texas requires wills to be signed in the physical presence of two witnesses, so the signing appointment happens in person — we make that one visit as simple as possible.
What should I have ready when I call?
Nothing, for a first call. If you have documents that matter — a will, a deed, a death certificate, a contract, a demand letter — having them nearby helps, but do not wait to gather paperwork before reaching out. Especially if a deadline is close.
Which counties do you serve?
Harris, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Tarrant, and Dallas Counties and the surrounding areas. Probate venue follows the county where the person lived, so confirming the right county is one of the first things we do.
Do you offer evening or weekend appointments?
Evening consults are available by request. Tell us what works when you reach out and we will do our best to accommodate it.
