About Eric D. Beal

"I became an attorney for the same reason I became a United States Marine. I wanted to help people and protect those that need protecting.

I became a Family Law Attorney because I realized that there was a need for family lawyers that know what they're doing and truly care about their clients.

I have dedicated myself, since the day I decided to go to law school, to becoming the best-educated, most knowledgeable, and most technically proficient attorney that I can be.

I have built a firm based upon this approach with a goal of providing the best possible legal care to individuals with divorce and family law needs."

Senior Attorney, Eric Beal, is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, is AV® Preeminent™ rated by Martindale-Hubbell, and has over 35 years of divorce and family law experience. Additionally, Mr. Beal is a former U.S. Marine Corps Legal Officer. While in the Marines, Eric graduated with honors from the Field Artillery Officer’s Basic Course and the Military Justice Legal Officer’s Course, where he finished first in his class with an all-time record score.

Following the Marines, he attended Baylor Law School, where he received over two dozen honors and awards, and graduated as the Highest Ranking Student. Since that time, he has become a published family law author and speaker and participates in many times over the required number of Continuing Legal Education courses.

I went to Eric several years ago with my case when I had no one to turn to. He was full of knowledge and actually cared about what would happen to me and my family if I didn't get the right representation. To be honest, Eric was and is still charging less than he's actually worth for his years of experience. He is not out for your money. Had it not been for his legal advice, I would not be happily married right now. Thank you, Eric!

An answered prayer! That's what I want to say about this firm. From the moment I walked in I was always greeted warmly and treated with the utmost respect. I have been a client for over 2 years now and I don't plan on using anybody else ever.
I have been blessed enough to have the counsel of Eric Beal, Constance Mims, and Ana Bachmann in a child custody matter. My daughter is healthy, safe, and happy because of the expertise of this group. She is thriving and I can't begin to express how hard they have all worked on my case. Every penny spent has been more than worth it because they have provided a way for me to have the best for my child.
Thank you Beal Law Firm for everything!

Eric, his attorneys, and his staff, all provided the highest level of competent and efficient legal services as they helped guide me through a difficult divorce and accompanying child support issues. I could not recommend his firm any more highly.

Eric was #1 in his Law School Class. That says it all, but there is so much more. I have known Eric for a decade and have seen him in a variety of situations: attorney, husband, dad, friend, business man, CEO, a man of faith who actually lives it, and an officer in the United States Marine Corp. The judge told me, “Eric beat the two most expensive attorneys in the city. He was so impressive.”
Words which describe him are highly ethical, intelligent, hard worker, caring and kind.

Eric was so helpful, knowledgeable and advised us of all the avenues we had in order to fight against our case. He won!!! Eric was easy to talk to. Explained everything to where we understood what was happening and advised us in all areas of our case. He treated us with respect and a caring concern about the issues we were having. One in a million & we were blessed to have him in our corner.

Eric is the ultimate professional. He not only provides input and guidance on the law but uses his counselor title and techniques to aid you in what can only be described as the worst time of your life. His military background connected with mine and we immediately were on the same wavelength. His knowledge is second to none! His ability to cut through the haze/fog that the client is in to get to the heart of the matter is superb. I have NEVER met a more distinguished professional lawyer!

Outstanding bearing in court room. Outstanding tactician. Stayed at least 1 step ahead of opposing counsel. Wargamed all possible scenarios and outcomes. Always open and honest regarding potential outcomes which could be achieved in the courtroom, both positive and negative. Extremely fair in billing, and was well worth the expense. Extremely familiar with the court and the judges and of course the entire process.

Eric cares about his clients. He takes a personal interest in their good/future. Top of his law school class, he brings not only intellect/education, but the highest ethics/morals to the table everyday. I give him the highest recommendation!
