Dallas Wills And Trust Lawyers

A Winning Legal Team That Is Ready To Fight

Our firm’s founder and principal attorney, R. Kevin Spencer, is an AV-rated* attorney and has over twenty-five years of experience almost exclusively in estate and trust litigation. He started his own firm in 2007, later becoming known as Spencer Law, P.C. Zachary E. Johnson joined him in January 2010. Brendan P. Harvell joined the firm in August 2012. Three years later, Kevin’s son, Blake O. Spencer, graduated from law school and joined the firm in August 2017. Kevin is super-proud of his entire legal team and has taught them to be the best, strongest and hardest-working lawyers in the state.

As the law firm was growing, big things continued to happen. On January 1, 2018, Kevin named Zach his law partner – a name partner – changing the name of the law firm to Spencer & Johnson, PLLC. Simultaneously with changing the name of the law firm, Zach and Kevin launched its new website at its new domain: www.dallasprobate.com. On June 1, 2021, the name changed again with Brendan was became a named partner, and became known as Spencer, Johnson, & Harvell, PLLC. Kevin, Zach, Brendan, and Blake and their staff work together toward your goals.

Winning Dallas Legal Team

In addition to our attorneys’ valuable knowledge and proven litigation skills and experience, our team offers dedication, tenacity and persistence that are recognized by our opponents. Opposing firms know we are tough, aggressive and will not give up. We are committed to seeing our cases through to resolution whether by settlement or trial. Our attorneys have tried numerous cases to verdict and enjoy nothing more than going to court to present your case  and fight for justice. Some attorneys fear the courtroom because they are not prepared, they lack experience or they are risk averse and do not want to “take a chance” on a bad outcome. But, we at Spencer, Johnson & Harvell, PLLC help you analyze risk and have no problem going to trial – anytime – if that is the only resolution available.

Most of all we care, we care about you as our client and you, as our client, are of utmost importance. We strive to make you feel as important that important. We will always be proud to be your attorneys and will be straight-up and honest with you whether the message is good or bad. We know what it takes to achieve successful results, and we strive for those results at every turn.
