Busby & Associates

Busby & Associates represents a powerhouse family law practice in Houston, built on a foundation of extensive trial experience and proven results. The firm has established itself as a trusted resource for families navigating divorce, custody, and family law matters in the Houston area. Led by Michael G. Busby Jr., a board-certified family law attorney, the firm combines deep legal expertise with a track record of successfully trying complex cases in court.

Michael G. Busby Jr. is board certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a distinction earned through years of dedicated practice, continuing education, and demonstrated excellence. Board certification requires not just knowledge of family law but also proven success in the field, reflecting clients' trust and the judiciary's respect. Michael's board certification places him among the state's most qualified family law practitioners.

Michael's professional standing is further reflected in his memberships in the State Bar of Texas and the Houston Bar Association, as well as his admission to practice in the Federal Courts for the Southern District of Texas. This multi-jurisdictional licensing allows him to represent clients in both state and federal courts when necessary.

What most impressively demonstrates Michael's litigation prowess is the firm's record of over 400 family law and divorce cases tried over the last 25 years. This remarkable caseload reflects both the firm's reputation and Michael's willingness to take cases to trial when clients' interests demand litigation rather than settlement. While many attorneys prefer to settle cases, Michael brings the litigation skills and trial experience necessary to achieve favorable verdicts when courtroom advocacy is needed.

The firm's team includes Andrew Iwata, who joined the family law department of Busby & Associates as an Associate in 2015. Andrew is a member of the State Bar of Texas and the Houston Bar Association and is admitted to practice in the Federal Courts for the Southern, Northern, and Eastern Districts of Texas. Andrew's multi-district federal court admission reflects his capability to handle cases spanning Texas and beyond.

Busby & Associates offers comprehensive family law services, handling every aspect of divorce and related matters. The firm assists clients with divorce consultation, documentation, and the division of property, assets, and liabilities. The firm handles child custody, child support, alimony, and spousal support matters, recognizing that these issues are often as important to families as property division. The firm also handles modification of existing orders, enforcement of court-ordered support and custody arrangements, and judgment collection—ensuring that once a favorable verdict or agreement is reached, clients can enforce those rights effectively.

What distinguishes the firm's practice is its accessibility. Rather than maintaining traditional business hours that may be inconvenient for working clients, Busby & Associates is open Monday through Saturday for consultations, with evening hours typically available on Wednesdays. This extended availability recognizes that family law clients are often working professionals who struggle to find time for legal consultations during traditional business hours. By offering Saturday consultations and evening hours, the firm removes barriers to accessing quality legal representation.

For families in Houston facing divorce, custody disputes, support enforcement matters, or other family law challenges, Busby & Associates offers professional, experienced representation. Michael Busby Jr.'s board certification, his remarkable record of over 400 trials, his 25+ years of family law experience, his multi-jurisdictional federal court admission, and the firm's extended consultation hours make it an excellent choice for clients seeking skilled legal advocacy. The firm's proven track record in the courtroom offers confidence that complex matters will be handled with expertise and strategic thinking.
