Emerson Dickman and Kim Ventresco did a wonderful job of helping me navigate OOD options with our school district. They helped me find the appropriate resources and consultant for my son as well as ensuring the district helped pay for the educational environment that my son requires. I chose Emerson because the attention afforded my situation was perfect and the cost was reasonable.

My wife and I have an adult daughter with Williams Syndrome. As with most parents of children with special needs, our concerns as we age begin to focus on what happens after we're gone. I can't say enough about our experience with Emerson Dickman and Melanie Ritter in preparing for that eventuality. For a variety of reasons, there was a need to create three separate Trusts. We were lead through the process in a caring, comprehensive, thorough, knowledgeable, and professional manner. We would highly recommend the law offices of G. Emerson Dickman.

Our autistic son wasn't getting the publicly funded education he needed. We were paying for private therapies. The school district was uncooperative. Emerson helped us immensely. He was caring, smart, kind, understanding, experienced and best of all got my son out of district placement in a special school that has changed our lives. Couldn't recommend him more.

It was a pleasure working with an attorney who made everything easy to understand and executed our wishes exactly how we envisioned them. My husband is a financial advisor who is not easily impressed! Jon was a perfect fit for both of us!

Jon prepared all my estate planning documents. He was thorough, efficient and made good use time during our two appointments. Jon is professional and knowledgable - he anticipates questions before you even ask them. His personality puts you at ease and you can tell he is committed to making sure the people he works with are treated fairly and with kindness.

Hired Jon and worked with him for over a year. Jon is very professional and knowledgeable on military and civilian law. I worked with him in the civilian and military courts. Jon was always on time in response to the courts and fair when giving advise on the options of the situation. When it came time for the military appearance the odds were against us. Jon’s expertise and knowledge of the law resulted in winning the case with the most favorable result. His knowledge of the rules, regulation, and current policies in place proved the the action presented by the military unlawful, and unfair. Overall I am highly satisfied with my time spent with Jon and would recommend him to any one.

David helped me with a Will for my spouse and I; we also had full Power of Attorneys created, and finally, the health care directive was also done. He is very accurate, detailed, and even came to my home to review the documents with us. Combine that with a friendly attitude and pricing that does not gouge, and it's a winning combo. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't mention that he spent the time to ask us if we had questions, and was very thorough in his explanations and final review of the paperwork. Seriously, you won't be disappointed with his services and fair pricing.

Ed has been my attorney for over 15 years and I plan to stay with him. Met Ed at St. Lukes Hospital because of his Father and my husband as room mates.

I have worked with Ms. Lampert in the past and utilized her services. I was impressed with her professionalism and her vast knowledge base. She was attentive to my questions and responded on a timely basis. I observed her dealing with the opposing counsel and found her to be able to listen to their opinions and yet firm and bold when explaining my position regarding the legal issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting a goal oriented, knowledgeable legal professional.

Recently a good friend passed away. He left very little in the way of a will or other documentation that would help at that time and he did not have any blood relatives. I contacted Ms. Lampert for assistance and she was there for us. She obtained the needed court documents for us quickly. She is very knowledgeable and responsive and her fees are competitive. I highly recommend her.

I retained Mr. Jowanna's services in 2017 through 2020 to represent us in a lawsuit. He and his staff are so down to earth. He breaks it all down in terms in which the average individual understands. He seems so laid back but don't let that fool you he is a bulldog when he represents you. He doesn't talk to his clients in a condescending manner like so many other attorneys. He looks out for the financial aspect trying to save his clients from exorbitant attorney fees. He actually listens to what you are telling him and then he consults with you on his plan of strategy. And if you still have trouble understanding what he is trying to get a cross to you then he goes to the drawing board so that he can present it to you visually. He and his staff respond quickly to any and all request. You can tell that he has a passion for the law. I can't express enough how highly I think of him and his staff.

I contacted Matthew Jowanna about an issue in terms of establishing a trust for my daughter. It turned out that given that she does not live in FL although I do, it was not possible for him to be of assistance.
Another attorney at his office worked with me on this. They are responsive and professional. I would unhesitatingly use them in the future based on my limited experience with them.

I live in Land O' Lakes and was looking for a lawyer that was both close and excellent. I didn't want to have to go to downtown Tampa or Orlando to find a big time lawyer. So, I Googled and Googled. Luckily, I found Mr. Jowanna's website. Most lawyers I saw on the Internet (even in the big fancy and expensive law firms) did not even come close to Mr. Jowanna's experience and qualifications. So, I made an appointment. I met personally with Mr. Jowanna and his Office Manager, Andrea. They took the time to listen to everything I had to say. They were very down to earth and casual, which made me less nervous and put me at ease. But, Mr. Jowanna immediately knew the answer to every question I had. And, they didn't charge me anything. Go talk to your doctor for half an hour and see if that's free! It was the best of both worlds. I hired a big league qualified lawyer that was courteous, friendly, very down to earth and professional. I would reccomend Mr. Jowanna's office to everyone. But, do your own homework. You won't find anyone in the area with credentinals that even come close. Everyone in the office was more like a law family instead of some stuffy and stiff law firm.

As a Venezuelan migrant mom, I can say that having a lawyer like Annalie is a blessing. In my case, I was seeking to establish visitation and child support for my daughter, and it has been a very long and slow process, especially because everything has been post-pandemic. Annalie has always treated us very well with kindness, empathy, and a great commitment to ethics. Thank you, Annalie, for accompanying me and my family in this uncomfortable but necessary process. I highly recommend her because she is also a family-oriented mother who puts God and children first. //Como mamá venezolana migrante puedo decir que contar con una abogada como Annalie es una bendición. En mi caso buscaba establecer las visitas y child support para ml hija y ha sido un proceso muy largo, lento, también porque todo ha sido post pandemia y Annalie siempre nos ha atendido muy bien con amabilidad, empatía y gran compromiso y ética.

When my husband and I decided to start a family we knew we needed to get some things in order. Being new to South Florida we didn't know where to begin or whom to trust with our life affairs. Chris came highly recommended by a business associate, so we decided to meet him and see if we could build a relationship. After meeting with Chris we were quite confident he could help us establish the things we needed to secure our family's future. Chris is very professional, personable and easy to reach. I was able to contact him at any hour with questions or concerns and he either answered the phone right away or responded quickly to an email. He took the time to explain things in a manner which I clearly understood the choices I was making. Chris is very patient and wants to be sure his client understands everything before signing any documents. Chris made us feel confident and secure in the decisions we made for the future of out family. I have recommended him to several people whom have all expressed their gratitude to me and I will continue to recommend him in the future.

Chris worked our Estate attorneys in Boston ,Ma. to handle the litigation in Fla. he was totally professional, kind, and caring..offering emotional support as well.
I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone...
My husband was going through tremendous stress which they caused and ultimately for me since he became seriously ill over it and it caused his health and life to go steadily decline...
All our lawyers were wonderful and cared for me dealing w cruel selfish greed....They were always there ...
Now I know what he looks like...real quality for sure...

Ms. Jett was just what we were looking for -- an attorney that would give us straight answers, but was also sympathetic to the complicated and sometimes sensitive issues associated with family estate matters. She worked with us, not just for us. She helped clarify our goals and explained how best to achieve them. We would have no hesitation recommending her for assistance with estate planning and management.

We hired Daci Jett to create living trusts for us. She did an excellent job, walking us through the process, helping us think through the many different issues. Ms Jett was personable, had a good sense of humor and was easy to work with. Meetings were held on-time and kept to time. Her follow through was great and she kept us well-informed of the process - we worked mostly through email. When we had tasks to accomplish, she communicated very clearly exactly what we needed to do. She gave us very complete documentation at the end. We felt that she always kept our interests primary in all decisions.
We did not go through an extensive selection process to choose an estate attorney. Based on a referral, we met for an initial meeting, felt very comfortable and proceeded to hire her.
Overall, I would highly recommend her and her services.

***Robert Lake has represented our family in five separate private residential real estate transactions and one commercial transaction in the Western Suburbs of Chicago. He has always provided absolutely outstanding service, helping in all stages of the transactions - from signing the contract all the way through to closing. Regardless of the numerous questions we had along the way, Robert always provided very prompt, thorough answers. He has helped us with some very difficult situations, always protecting our interests and ensuring that any issues were quickly resolved. We have recommended Robert Lake to at least 5 or 6 friends and colleagues (some of whom with much more complex transactions than we have) who retained him. as well. Every single one of them has spoken very highly of him. He has always had our best interests in mind, and it was very reassuring to have an advocate in our corner that was looking out for us. Robert’s experience is very broad. He is clearly an expert in his field, not to mention a consummate professional. We would highly recommend Robert Lake to anyone navigating the home buying process.

After my father passed unexpectedly without a will, there was a bit of running around needed in order to take care of the estate. Mr. Bennett was quick to show not only his compassion for the situation but also his willingness to get the job done. I had compiled a list of most accounts, but it was him and his staff that did 99% of the work from there. Everything was as streamlined as possible from what I saw of the process.

Mrs. Sullivan was prompt in returning my calls when I was initially looking for an Estate and Gaurdianship/Conservatorship Attorney due to an emergency circumstances. I would highly recommend Mrs. Sullivan. She handled my very extreme and complex case like a Champion. She is very respectful, thorough and she cares what happens to her Client's.
She explained the courts process in probate by putting them in lamens terms and was very patient and understanding in repeating anything that I may have misunderstood or had gotten confused on while going the process of paperwork or anything else for that matter. If you are looking for a attorney to handle any complexed and extreme case you may have call Mrs. Sullivan you will not regret you ever did. I am living proof that she gets the job done quickly and she is very precise.
Sheprotected my rights when I felt I had no one else that would consider my extremely difficult cases. Thank You Mrs. Sullivan you are an angel sent from above. God Bless you!

I have worked for Stephen as a paralegal and investigator on many of his cases over the past twenty years. Stephen has also represented me on three cases that I can remember. He takes cases that other attorneys are not capable of handling. He is not intimidated by bullying tactics from opposing counsel. Stephen is proficient in commercial litigation, probate, construction and real estate. He also has a working knowledge of bankruptcy, criminal, and domestic law because these specialized areas of law can filter in to his primary practice. Stephen’s ethics are of the highest caliber and he works diligently for his clients although many of them do not appreciate just how hard he works. A client will never find Stephen Gonzalez faltering, tripping or stumbling in the courtroom because is always prepared when he goes to court.

Sage Law Firm LLC did a Living Trust for my wife and I. Jeff did a thorough and professional job, and was very patient with us as we slowly made the necessary decisions. This is not the type of task that we wanted to leave to someone we couldn’t trust with our information. Sage Law took every precaution to make sure our information and correspondence was handled securely.
We have also used their services for contract writing and reviews.
I will be recommending Sage Law to others.

I really felt like she was with me every step of the way, remaining available and supportive throughout the entire process. Additionally, my case ended up going to trial because of the failings of the executor to act in accordance with the trust distribution, and Kathryn skillfully and efficiently won my case! Hiring Kathryn Warner was, without a doubt, the best legal choice I've ever made. I'd definitely recommend her to my family and friends.

She was always very pleasant and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her to another and use her myself again. As a matter of fact, I am currently soliciting her services for a deed transfer.

I retained Michael's services to help create a will and end of life directives for my brother who had been diagnosed with terminal cancer. Mike reached out to my brother and gathered the necessary information for creating the legal documents needed. Given the condition of my brother, Mike was able to gather the information, create the documents in just 2 days, and get the necessary notarized signatures from brother. I have never worked with a more efficient attorney. Mike understood immediately what documents were needed, and he had no issue with ensuring they were all in place quickly.

Hired Clayton for a sell of my business. At first I had many questions all of which were answer and explained so I understand the process. That was a big deal for me. He kept constant communication and even recommended a few thing that were in my best interest and really help protect me in the future. The sale went flawless and he made the experience a positive one. Claytons my guy now and will now use him for anything I need.

Clayton helped my husband and I to establish not only our company but also complete our estate. Over a series of meetings Clayton has taken the time to get to know us so that our needs were met in a fashion that made us feel comfortable but more importantly, informed. He has been an asset in helping us to navigate all the directions certain decisions made, can affect us in the future. He has made our decision making process very clear when it comes to matters of our business and estate...exactly what we need. Clayton has also been awesome in subsequent business transactions as we have continued to expand our asset column. When we need him...he's there.

As an attorney myself, it's easy for me to see when colleagues are doing things the right way - or the wrong way. My wife and I hired Christine to do some estate planning and were very impressed with her professionalism. She gave us the attention and guidance we needed to develop an estate plan that suited our specific needs, and we could not have been happier with her firm's service. She worked tirelessly to accomplish our goals on a very tight timeline, even delivering documents by hand, after hours, so we could personally execute them and finalize the process. I would highly recommend Christine and her firm to anyone in need of estate planning and probate services.

We worked with Elizabeth for our family planning and she made the entire process so easy. We were overwhelmed going into it, but her ability to break down each tasks in a simple, yet thorough manner, is impressive. We understood every "section" because she explained them to us in non-lawyer speak, thanks Elizabeth. She progress at our pace, never pushy, never rushed us, and never tried to upsell her services. Her eye for detail is unmatched and her follow-through is the same. We ended up having her do everything from filling out the paperwork, to filing them for us. I have recommended her to our entire network at work, family and friends. She is also direct when needed and guides you in the right way, versus going along with whatever decisions one would make due to lack of knowledge. She brought the balance of "this is your decision" and "this is what i recommend". Thank you, your help was much appreciated.

My father died and his will was challenged. I was scared and my lawyer who just did probate said she could not defend the will. I was referred to Edward by a lawyer friend who does appeal law. Edward was kind to me and fought hard to defend my dad's will. He won for me everything. No settlement because I had the best. That is what Edward is: the best!

After my mom passed my sister was trustee of mom's trust. We had always been close, but my sister was doing things how she wanted not according to the trust. I was sad over my mom's death and I could hardly believe my sister was now not following mom's wishes. I went to see Ed because he does litigation. He made me feel sane! He listened to me. He understood my pain. He represented me and was able to get my sister to do the trust by the law. He even took the time (and did not charge me) to help my sister and I reconnect. Ed went the extra mile to protect my interests, both in the family trust my mom left and in my family. I am thankful I went with Ed. Not all lawyers are just like the jokes we all hear. Ed is a good man.

My wife and I used David for estate planning for our 2 young children and we are very happy that we did. He took estate planning and other complex topics and made them easy to understand. He was patient with our questions but also very thoughtful on how to help us with some of our unique circumstances. Not only that but as other questions have come up he has made himself available and willing to answer those as well. I have recommended David to a number of people and they all have had a similar outstanding experience. David prides himself on his professionalism and it shows in his work and interactions.

My wife and I had an estate plan drawn up by another lawyer about 8 years ago. When it was time to update it, our original lawyer had retired so we need to find a new lawyer. This site was actually one of several source we used to select David. It has turned out to be a wise decision as David has proved to be very proficient in the area of estate planning with a wealth of experience to draw on. I attribute this in large part because he has a sincere passion for this area of law and interest in providing his client the highest levels of satisfaction. He certainly made the process as easy as possible. Although our original plan was sufficient, there were items that David addressed in our updated version that will definitely add value. We are grateful for those who left their reviews and are happy to add our feedback as well.

Raquel Silva: She was the unwavering savior of my life and the lives of my daughters. With relentless dedication, she painstakingly assisted me in rebuilding my shattered life, consistently exceeding the expectations of her role. She was not just my legal advocate; she stood by my side through countless courtroom battles, passionately fighting for my rights when I was unable to speak without tears. Her remarkable qualities include boundless compassion and exceptional intelligence. In times of adversity, she is the person you want in your corner, ready to defend your interests.
Her guidance was consistently grounded in practicality and tailored to my best interests. The process of divorce is inherently humbling, irrespective of the side you find yourself on, yet Raquel handled every aspect with grace and dignity. When our journey concluded, I had amassed four comprehensive binders filled with divorce-related documentation. Furthermore, she generously assisted me in establishing a trust, an act for which I am immensely grateful.
Raquel's resourcefulness shone when I needed it most. Whether it was connecting me with a bankruptcy attorney, a tax specialist, a therapist, or providing guidance in matters involving the police, she always had a solution at hand. Beyond being an extraordinary attorney, she is an exceptional human being, and I cannot express enough gratitude for her invaluable support and counsel.

Raquel put together my Living Trust/Will a few years ago. I was not looking forward to the process for obvious reasons, but also because the paperwork process seemed daunting. Raquel provided clear direction and took the time to explain and help me understand each section/item I was answering. This was extremely important since it is such an important document to make things easier for my adult children. She was able to complete the write up and I was able to sign in a short period of time. Her down to earth style is welcoming and I will definitely use her services in the future as needs arise.
