The Stout Law Firm, PLLC

Angela and Stacy have helped me through the last 3 years in an interstate divorce/custody case. I have gone through multiple lawyers in both states and I can attest that they are the best. Angela always has great strategic approaches that have helped protect my peace and my peace of mind. I highly recommend the Stout law firm. Thank you!

I don’t even know where to begin. If I could give Angela Stout 10 stars, I truly would. After going through over five attorneys in the past 10 years, I had almost given up hope that I’d ever find someone who genuinely cared—not just about the case, but about me, my child, and the truth. Then I found Angela.

I had to switch attorneys just three months before a final trial we had been waiting on for over a year and a half. I was terrified. But Angela didn’t just step in, she stepped up. She took the time to really learn every detail of our case, and somehow understood it better than anyone before her. She listened. She believed me. She believed in what was right, and she fought for it like it was her own family.

This was a high-conflict case with serious false allegations made against me and my loved ones, and real danger coming from the other side. Angela walked into that courtroom with strength, compassion, and a quiet but fierce determination to let the truth be seen. And she did it with so much grace and professionalism. Watching her in trial was something else. Not all attorneys are natural litigators, but Angela truly is. She has the gift.

Her team was just as amazing. Every call, every email, was answered quickly and with care. I never felt alone.

As a father, I know how rare it is to be granted Sole Managing Conservatorship. Most people told me it was a long shot. But Angela made it happen. She helped give me and my family our voice back after 10 long years. And most importantly, she helped protect my child.

There are no words big enough to say thank you. Just, thank you, Angela. From the bottom of my heart.

My experience with attorney Jelena Kovacevic was exceptional, she always keep me informed about key developments in my case, I trust Jelena adequately represented my interests. Divorce itself not easy , but when it involves children, it is very stressful. Jelena was always available over the email or the phone, even the late evenings or early mornings. Thank God we did not go to trial in my case, everything was resolved in mediation. Jelena was very firm during the mediation process. I would recommend Jelena to anyone who's going through this difficult process.

Jelena and her staff guided me thru a pretty complicated divorce of 40+ years. She was hired after I had to change Law firms due tother bad communication. Jelena was always available to me, her expert advice and counsel was exceptional.
I can't say enough how much I apprecited her professional service during a very difficult time.

If you're looking for a law firm that won't return your phone calls or takes weeks to respond to emails, this is the firm for you. The consultation process was quick, and they were attentive only until they secured the retainer fee. After that, everything went downhill. Attorney Angela Stout constantly pressured me to settle outside of court, almost as if she was afraid to fight for me there. She also minimized the seriousness of my family violence situation and the threats I faced, showing a complete lack of empathy. If you have urgent matters or children involved, I strongly advise against using this law firm. I terminated representation from this attorney and new one was able to accomplish (in one month) what Angela and Stout Law Firm couldn’t do in over 3 months. I would have saved a lot of money going elsewhere from the beginning.

Angela Stout served as our mediator after two years of an exceptionally contentious divorce. Together, both sides had already spent nearly $300k in legal fees, yet our most critical disputes remained unresolved. In just one four-hour mediation session with Angela, we were able to resolve the most financially significant issues and avoided a lengthy appellate process. While true compromise means neither party gets everything they want, Angela skillfully guided us to a hard-fought middle ground. Her professionalism, expertise, and ability to navigate intense emotions were instrumental in bringing closure to a very, very challenging chapter of our lives. Highly recommended!

Jelena Kovacevic literally has saved mine and my kids life, she will forever be someone I m so grateful for. She finalized by divorce, things I thought wouldn’t be possible she made it happen. I can not recommend her enough, if you are going through a bad divorce, she is the person for you!!!
She is the best!!!

Jelena Kovacevic guided me through my recent divorce and was absolutely outstanding. She is the perfect balance of smart, tough, strategic and empathetic. We came to a final agreement and parenting plan that is a bit non-traditional, but thanks to Jelena's insightful questions, forethought and ability to map out all possible scenarios, I know that I have the financial and legal protections I need to start my next chapter with confidence.

My experience with the Stout Law Firm and Jelena Kovacevic was nothing short of EXCEPTIONAL. I had a tough situation and she was #1 very honest about our path and what that would entail and then #2 the BEST advocate you could ever want on your side. She knows the law and she is a fighter for your rights. The way she handled herself with the judge and the mediator was professional and firm. Her negotiating skills are fantastic. Whenever I needed her she was there for me. I recommended her to a friend in a high value/complicated divorce and she did an EXCEPTIONAL job once again. I would highly recommend Jelena Kovacevic and the Stout Law Firm without any hesitation. Thanks so very much for everything you did for me and my kiddos. Becky

Professional, Intelligent, and Down to Earth; these are the the main characteristics of Jelena Kovacevic of The Stout Law Firm. Divorce is actually pretty complicated, even non- contested divorces can end up confusing and overwhelming. Jelena knows Texas family law and Jelena knows people. I never felt unheard or uninformed and I learned a lot about my strengths, as well as some areas I needed work. Honest, dependable, real people helping others navigate the choppy waters and unpredictable storms of family issues. I have recommended Jelena to my closest friends and would recommend her again.
