Cole Eckhoff
In 2021, I appeared in courts across Texas representing some of the largest national banks and insurance companies. In 2022, I moved to Victoria, Texas to join the beloved Werner Law Group, and became the third attorney working on a docket of hundreds of family law and civil suits. During that time, The Werner Law Group was voted best Family Law Attorneys in 2023 and best Civil Law Attorneys in 2024 as published in the Victoria Advocate's "Best of the Best." As attorney in charge in over 140 cases and an associate on many others, I learned to appreciate the unique and convenient aspects of practicing law in our area, including options to resolve family law issues not available in other parts of the state.
Today, I represent clients seeking strategic and thoughtful resolutions for their family law matters including divorce, custody, child support, enforcement, adoption, termination of parental rights, and CPS cases. I want to resolve your disputes and minimize the harm to sensitive family relationships on all sides. When necessary, I also work with clients to tell their story in a compelling way, convince the Court, and demonstrate the truth against the lies many unfortunately expect in today's family law courtrooms.
Following the rotating judges of the 24th, 135th, 267th and 377th District Courts, I represent clients in Victoria, DeWitt, Jackson, Calhoun, Goliad and Refugio Counties including Victoria, Port Lavaca, Seadrift, Point Comfort, Cuero, Yoakum (DeWitt portion only), Yorktown, Edna, Ganado, La Ward, Goliad, Refugio, and Woodsboro.
