Proceed with caution: Nightmare As someone who has never left a negative review for an attorney before, it pains me to write this, but I feel that the public needs to be aware and cautious about my experience with Lennea Cannon. Despite paying her an additional retainer, she demanded further payments, citing a chargeback issue. Though I managed to save up the necessary funds and pay her again, it turned out that she had already received the initial payment, which caused my bank account to be in overdraft for 75 days. Throughout our interactions, she also failed to communicate effectively and was frequently dismissive and rude. When I suggested a fee arbitration service, her responses became increasingly hostile. To make matters worse, she withheld excess funds without explanation, which I found unethical and frustrating. Given my experience, I urge anyone considering her services to conduct thorough research and proceed with caution.

Ms. Cannon received her Doctor of Jurisprudence from South Texas College of Law in 2004 and was admitted to the State Bar of Texas that same year. Her business background and experience make her uniquely qualified to represent clients in complex property cases in a divorce. Having devoted her practice exclusively to family law for over a decade, Lennea has successfully tried numerous cases involving high-conflict custody battles, contested terminations and adoptions, high asset and large estate property divisions and international Hague matters. Ms. Cannon represents families with compassion, zealous advocacy and thorough analysis and litigation of difficult and extraordinary legal issues. Courts also often appoint Lennea as an amicus or ad litem attorney to represent the best interest of children involved in litigation. She is also a member of the American Bar Association (Family Law Committee and Civil Litigation Section), Houston Bar Association (Family Law Section Member), Fort Bend Bar Association (Family Law Committee) and is a Family Law Section Member of the State Bar of Texas. Ms. Cannon devotes her spare time to chasing her two young children around and volunteering and committing to her adoptee little brother through the Houston Area Big Brother Big Sister Organization. Ms. Cannon devotes 100% of her practice to family law, including divorce, adoptions, marital agreements, paternity, child custody, modifications, spousal support/alimony and property enforcement.
