Lord Infamous
Incredibly Smart and Great at Communication
Lance is the rare kind of person that's both incredibly smart and also great at communication. You don't see both of those things in the same person very often. Lance also has a way of being an incredibly aggressive advocate for you without putting other people off. It's a sight to behold. I've always valued the way he provides counsel that is both clear and easy to action, but also strategic and well thought out. I can't recommend working with him enough!

He Is the Lawyer to Hire
Jeff Parker, Jeff Parker, Jeff Parker!! Words can’t express how much of a blessing he was. As an overthinker with a head full of worries and concerns, he took all that and shot it straight to me. He was attentive to every bit of this case and showed his 26 years of experience. Punctual and a gentleman. Save yourself any time if you are looking for real answers and knowledgeable counsel. He is the lawyer to hire!!! Can’t thank you enough again, Mr. Parker. Me and my family appreciate everything you did for us.

Helped My Family in Our Toughest Times
Lance Kennedy Law helped my family in our toughest times with integrity and restored our hope. Thank you to Clayten Hearrell.
Brendon St. Clair
Exceptional Support and Care
I wanted to commend Lance Kennedy Law for the exceptional support I received.
The fact that Clay and Jeff are still available to help even after the case is complete truly shows compassion and care. In my experience, most places only do what they are paid to do and nothing more. It is clear that Clay and Jeff prioritize doing what is right, and money is not the primary factor.
Thank you again for having such a dedicated team.

A True Advocate on My Side
Dear Clay,
I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude. It is rare to find a true advocate, and I am incredibly appreciative to have had you on my side.
While the justice system can be unfair, having you representing me gave me a fair chance, and for that, I am truly thankful.
Ruben Sanchez
We Are Incredibly Grateful

If I could give 10 stars, I would.
If I could give 10 stars, I would.
I cannot say enough about Attorney Jeff Mulliner. He has been my literal hero more than once. I first hired Jeff nearly 15 years ago for my own legal situations—a few times—and each time he rescued me with his honesty, precision, and unmatched expertise. He was the only attorney in Bexar County who ever made me feel safe, supported, and genuinely advocated for.
After all these years, Jeff still remembered me. His professionalism, integrity, and compassion have never changed. So when a family member suddenly faced her own legal crisis this year, there was only one person I trusted with her future.
I hired Jeff for her case on October 24th and he had her entire case DISMISSED by November 21st. Less than a month. That is the level of skill, dedication, and mastery this attorney brings to the table.
Jeff is:
• Prompt
• Direct
• Extremely knowledgeable
• Honest
• Effective
• Professional in every possible way
He communicates clearly, fights hard, and delivers results. He doesn’t sugarcoat—he tells you what you need to hear and then does exactly what he says he will do.
There is no other attorney in Bexar County who I’d want to hire. I will always be grateful for what he has done for me and my family. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, and truly invested in your outcome, Jeff Mulliner is the attorney you want on your side.

My case was dismissed thanks to this law firm
Jeff Parker is a great attorney. Not only did he counsel me and advise me, but I truly felt like he believed in me and fought my case. Today, my case was dismissed thanks to this law firm, myself, and most of all Jeff Parker.
Israel Fabela
I would DEFINITELY recommend Lance Kennedy Law
I would DEFINITELY recommend Lance Kennedy Law and team for legal needs!
I would like to personally thank Jeffrey for his guidance and support throughout this process. Although the cost was significant, that was my responsibility—and ultimately, the outcome was worth it. The desired results were achieved and I finally feel like I have my life back.
I pray I don’t ever have any future needs, but your firm will be my first call if I do!
