I recently retired from a local Municipality. I had went through a divorce in 2005.
I was unable to get the QDRO and income deduction orders done from 2005 through April 2021.
I contacted William J. Lobb on or about May 26th, 2021.
All items that I requested were completed and executed by 6/29/2021.
I cannot thank Mr. Lobb and his staff enough for getting this done ASAP.
I would reccommend Mr. Lobb and his staff for all legal issues.
The interaction, proffesionalism and exepediious handling of my case was a great stress relief.
Thank You

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Mr. Saunders and his team. I have consulted and hired them several times over the years regarding civil suits and occasionally when I simply needed advice. Although my issues have never been major, Mr. Saunders and his team treated them as if they were and made me feel as though I was their most important client every time. I am abundantly grateful for Mr. Saunders' thorough knowledge of the legal system, quick wit, and fast thinking. He has helped me navigate extremely stressful situations, and I leave each time feeling reassured that each situation is in his capable hands. I would recommend Saunders Law Group to anyone and can't imagine ever using another firm for my legal needs!

I contacted Mr. Riddle for a criminal matter after speaking to several lawyers throughout central florida. I was in a bad spot and every one else kept saying they couldn't help me. Mr. Riddle brought me right in for a consult, even credited my consultation money back to me when I hired him. He is down to earth, positive, treated me like a friend not a wallet, and saved me from spening 18 months in prison. If you want a lawyer who cares then this is the guy.

Although I have not hired him I know him personally. He is a man of integrity. He does not have to advertise because he has a wonderful reputation. He does the right thing and would never mislead you at all. He is not greedy just a man whom does what he says he will do for you and is trustworhty and truly does uphold the law does not try to pull any thing over with anyone, he is definitley a man whom I would recomment to anyone for legal advice. He may be a little expensive but he is worth it. He has the expereince and deserves what he gets as far as his fees are concerned. Great job John all of these years you have practiced I have never heard a bad word about you only the good!:).

Shirley Daniels Pellarchy is an extraordinary attorney and a wonderful human being.

I had gone through a horrific divorce and didn't think my previous attorney had fought as hard as possible. When I hired Maria Gallo, I was so astonished with the attention to detail, her knowledge of the law and her determined personna and work ethic to ensure my rights. Whenever an issue, either with legal issues or marital arose, she was proactive in her counsel, that she Always knew the next step AND would take all of the extra steps necessary to ensure my rights. Whether phone conversations, email communications, or meetings during working hours or email communications sent after hours, I always felt she was working so diligently for me. And she is very confident in her knowledge of the legalities of family law, especially regarding custodial rights. She always told me " you do not worry, that is why you hired me. I GOT THIS. Turn everything over to me." I was always nervous, anxious, and afraid of what could happen, and then I began to have peace, and confidence that my rights ad a father were just as important.
What she stands for regarding Ethics and extremely high moral character are second to none.
I know a lot of attorneys and have heard a lot of experiences, but I have NEVER experienced any attorney who works as hard as she does, has the ethical procedurals, and with high character and legal knowledge as Maria Gallo. She has set the bar extremely high.
There is absolutely no question that I will always look yo her and hire her for any and all legal issues I may have. She is the only one I would ever recommend.
Maria Gallo is the BEST in the industry. She really, really cares about her clients and takes great pride in her duties as an Attorney.

We hired Attorney Gallo to handle a very difficult Family Law matter. The Department of Children and Families had taken my husbands son and we were both charged with F1 felony charges. Attorney Gallo handled our case with DCF, and she was awesome.
We always had contact with her. She always responded to us immediately. We always knew where the case was at and where it was headed. Her communication skills are excellent and SHE DOES NOT LIE TO HER CLIENTS!! I think that was the most important thing to us. She treats her clients, no matter the circumstances, with utmost respect.
She is diligent in her case work. Before court dates, she was asking questions, so you knew she was preparing and working on your case. She studies your case, so she knows every document, and she knows every nuance of the case. Her mind is like a computer and she has a memory that does not end. She thinks ahead of the competition and takes steps to counteract there moves.
She is patient, patient, patient and has massive compassion towards her clients. My husband does not read well and has a limited education. Even so, Maria Gallo took the time to explain things so that he could understand what was happening. She never lost her patience with us, even when we were in the throws of complete panic.
She is awesome in the court room. She does not back down to DCF, like some lawyers do. She is forceful towards protecting your rights. She is insistent, yet respectful, when handling the Judges. She fights for you, when no one else does.
We have been where you are at , right this moment. You are trying to maneuver through a tough time, trying to find the right attorney. It is a difficult task. Who do you hire? Who do you believe? Take my word, call Maria Gallo and get her working on your case. She will take care of you and watch out for you. We never knew Attorney Gallo, or even heard of her before our arrest. But, looking back, we are so blessed to have found her. Hire her, you will not regret it.

Seth is a great lawyer. He really took the time to explain the process to me. I was overwhelmed with the whole thing, but Seth held fast and explained what was going on during every step and why. This gave me the understanding I needed to relax a little bit during the case. Seth is straightforward, honest, helpful, intelligent, and efficient. I don't have much to say, because it was just a good experience. Frankly I can't find anything to criticize him with. Great lawyer! If I need to do this again I'll be going right back. You won't be disappointed.

Mr. Blenk is the most professional, honest, and helpful attorney i have ever had the pleasure of hiring. We had three or four consultations where Paul took the time to explain the State Statute, the interpretations of it, and what type of information we needed to have a solid case. Once we got the information, we hired Paul and won hands down. Paul is an advocate for his clients, highly respected in the law community, and extremely honest. I cannot recommend Paul enough for anyone needing legal help. Our case was a family law case and Paul stood up for us and our child and got the best result. I can no longer say I've never met an honest attorney, Paul is the epitome of honesty and integrity.

Ron really is the best. And I mean the best all the way around. Hes always willing to personally speak with you when you call his office. He covers every single detail with you as many times as you want him to. Him and his secretary both have a way of really making you feel special,like your a part of there family. And in the court room he is so well respected.Its almost as if when he talks everybody everywhere stops and listens.Even in my husbands first court appearance, Ron handled the state attorney with such determination and he spit out all that lawyer lingo so fast that it almost sounded like a foreign language. Absolute professional on the outside and the warmest family man good ol'boy on the inside is how I see Ron Toward. I will never use any other attorney as long as Ron is still in business. I along with my whole family think alot of Ronald Toward.

When it comes to the law and your back is up against the wall, you want Norgard Norgard & Chastang standing between you and the vast resources of the State of Florida.
I was falsely accused of a crime by a victim so cool that butter wouldn't melt in her mouth. One of my first four lawyers told me this case most likely will be resolved based on the perceptions of the Jury.
I look in the mirror and see a big mean looking dude complete with Tatoos looking back at me. I think, "Perception, this can't be good". Whatever happened to the truth, relevant facts, evidence (direct and/or real circumstantial evidence not disjointed facts woven into a convenient fabrication). In a year my lawyer was changed 4 times and what started out as a misdemeanor criminal mischief charge was enhanced to 3 felonies and I was looking at 15 years in prison (not because of new evidence or new witnesses but because a State Attorneys Office Investigator, a year after the fact, was able to get an enhanced statement from the "victim"). Now the State could close the misdemeanor case and reopen it as a felony case apparently because the Assistant State Attorney felt she could overcome the lack of evidence with perception. For me all looked lost until that day Mr. Norgard and Mr. Chastang walked into the courtroom and literally took over my case, much to the chagrin of a protesting Assistant State Attorney.
Their appearance, their demeanor, their style all exuded a quiet yet unmistakeable confidence that told you when it came to law these were two bad dudes who weren't beholding to anyone other than their own moral code. When the time came to go to court. They were prepared for everything from the Jury Selection up through the trial. They knew exactly what to say, how to say it and when to say it. They always maintained decorum while making a point and dealing with the court. They were ready for and prevented and/or corrected any misstatements by the State and were able to overcome the States Perception Offence with the truth. I was found not guilty on all charges and I would without hesitation recommend these Attorneys to anyone charged with a criminal offence. These are two gentlemen who are always cordial to everyone but whose loyalty to their client is never compromised.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an accident, but thanks to 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐋𝐚𝐰 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐦 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐨𝐰, 𝐅𝐋, the only thing I was overwhelmed with was the outstanding service! 😂🚗 From the moment I hobbled into their office, 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐲 and her team were more attentive than my smartphone on a 1% battery! 📱🔋 They didn’t just handle my case; they handled it with the kind of care you’d think they were dealing with the world’s last chocolate chip cookie! 🍪
Caroline was a legal eagle, swooping in on my behalf! 🦅 She was not only sharp, but also had the kind of attention to detail that made Sherlock Holmes look like he’s just playing Guess Who. Every step of the recovery process, I was updated quicker than my Facebook status after a great dessert. 🍰💨 The entire office staff were rock stars, making sure I felt like the headliner at a concert. 🎸🌟
If you’re ever in a bind and need someone to untangle the legal spaghetti 🍝, look no further than Moody Law Firm. They turn what could be a legal nightmare into a dream – and let's be honest, who wouldn’t want their lawyer to be a dream weaver? 🌜✨ They not only help you get back on your feet, they make sure you’re sprinting to the finish line of your legal race. 🏁
Thanks, Moody Law Firm, for turning my car-wreck into a joyride of justice! 🚙💥⚖️💯 Highly recommend to anyone who needs a powerhouse by their side. This team really knows how to lay down the law! 🎤👩⚖️👨⚖️

I was seeking legal assistance with an issue I am dealing with and was referred to Joh Liguori. I was very eager to obtain an attorney and ended up going with another attorney HOWEVER....I receive a prompt call from him he was so very nice and understanding and still listened to my situation and wished me luck. Even though I did not retain I believe he would have fought for me and taken care of my situation. He was very responsive and showed concern. Even the young lady that answered me when I originally called she was so nice to me and was on it from the moment I called. John, I will still recommend you and your staff!!

Attorney Debra and her office have provided the best legal experience I've had in my six years of ongoing custody litigation. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and respectful—truly a breath of fresh air. Unlike many others, she isn't just focused on money but is fully dedicated to using all resources to ensure the best possible outcome. Even though my appellate case has concluded, I still reach out to her for guidance on my modification, and she continues to be just as helpful and supportive as she was when she was my appellate attorney. I highly recommend her!

Ms. Sutton’s work on my case was very well organized. She is fabulous in the courtroom and presents your case clearly and precisely to the judge for rulings.
Ms. Sutton’s staff Kerry and Shari were integral and put long hours in getting all of the financial information in order to aid Ms. Sutton in the hearing.
Ms. Sutton is by far one of the best family law attorneys you can hire in Polk County! She was exceptional and thorough, working very long to get the settlement finished and we're almost there!

I met Mr. Colon at a very difficult times of my life. I was charged by a poorly educated polk county sheriff’s deputy with a bad felony. This crooked cop has lied and faked evidence. Mr. Colon exposed all of it. From the first day he offered me a free consultation to the day my case got dismissed, I lived a worry free 2 years, even so facing with up to 25 years in prison, just knowing Mr. Colon is my guardian angel. I really feel myself insulted by those whiners claiming Mr. Colon does not communicate enough. My short answers to those whiners is, you pay the guy to do a job for you and offer you peace. You don’t pay the guy to talk to you. Please hire a mental health counselor or some sort therapist for the matter if you just need to talk to someone. I met the most gregarious and the most concerned human for his clients in Mr. Colon, the most professional and most respectful human I ever met in my life. Mr. Colon will not rest until he gets the best of the best for his client. Highly recommended, very affordable for the work he does. Thank you Mr. Colon and god bless you, your family and your wonderful team I met in your office

Gil Colon did not communicate effectively and spent most of his time with me joking around rather than discussing my case. He was disrespectful on more than one occasion, did not have a handle on the basics of my case, and seemed distracted most of the time. I did most of the work on my case; Gil Colon even acknowledged I did most of the work. I believe he does not work well with female clients; just my opinion.

We hired Gil colon 14 hours before court. He showed up not only got my husband released but probation terminated and he is a free man! I would recommend him over anyone!

Nick Mohr is a wonderfully nice and efficient attorney. I'd put off going to one for years, but I'm so glad I finally got my affairs in order and at a great price! Now, my children will not have to go through probate court for anything. It's sad to see houses sit unattended and eventually in disrepair when one has to wait on the courts to decide things for you. Don't put off off. See Nick today!

When I was going through a nasty divorce I hired Josh Schoen to help me navigate the waters. It was such a difficult time for me. Josh stuck with me for the duration of what ended up being a few years and never gave up the fight. He always responded to my concerns, acted quickly on my behalf, he addressed my emails, etc. Needless to say I grew to trust Josh. I trusted him with my custody battle, child support, and all the components of getting divorced. At the end of it it all work out in my favor just the way it should have. Tina B was very helpful in the process as well through correspondence, using the portak and keeping my account in order. She also and helped me set up payments so that I could pay off my balance. Don't hesitate to contact Josh for help and don't hesitate in trusting advocate law firm when you need legal help.

We worked with two different lawyers from this firm, initially being referred there for a third. Each of the lawyers worked on a total of 3 different cases. We didn't work with the initial referral but he did a free consultation and provided us with alot of info that was really helpful.
Jillian Spangler was fantastic with our first two cases. We had an extremely unconventional situation and when no one else was able to accommodate, Jillian took us on and we are so grateful for it. What started out as a devastating situation to find ourselves in, ended exactly with resolve we didn't even imagine we could get in our favor so smoothly. Our initial consultation with her we did not feel rushed and she listened attentively. I half jokingly told my husband (and she will never know this till reading this review) that she reminded me of Harley Quinn: Similiar in looks (gorgeous), smart and quick thinking, and not intimidated easily. Harley Quinn and Jillian Spangler both get things done!
She remains calm under pressure and is in it to get you the results you want. Our situation was so very stressful and unfortunately this was very dragged out, partially because we had one of our cases out of the area and she had to do a bit more research that was location exclusive to real estate in that area. I really don't know how she put up with our anxieties and concerns so tactfully because we were STRESSED. In hind sight, we had no reason to be and were in good hands. Her short answers we sometines received were spot on and I eventually learned through these that she was a very straight to the point, don't sweat the small stuff, kinda gal. I greatly appreciate her taking us on and working with us thru the holiday season in a timely manner even when short staffed due to an employee emergency.
Savannah C was the other associate we worked with. We didn't need her services to the extent we thought we might with a real estate transaction, but she was always attentive, informative and timely to respond when we did and guided us when needed.
Overall we got the results we wanted, and more, under the terms that we wanted. What more can you ask for?

Our situation was so very stressful and unfortunately this was very dragged out, partially because we had one of our cases out of the area and she had to do a bit more research that was location exclusive to real estate in that area. I really don't know how she put up with our anxieties and concerns so tactfully because we were STRESSED. In hind sight, we had no reason to be and were in good hands. Her short answers we sometines received were spot on and I eventually learned through these that she was a very straight to the point, don't sweat the small stuff, kinda gal. I greatly appreciate her taking us on and working with us thru the holiday season in a timely manner even when short staffed due to an employee emergency.
Savannah C was the other associate we worked with. We didn't need her services to the extent we thought we might with a real estate transaction, but she was always attentive, informative and timely to respond when we did and guided us when needed.
Overall we got the results we wanted, and more, under the terms that we wanted. What more can you ask for?

We worked with two different lawyers from this firm, initially being referred there for a third. Each of the lawyers worked on a total of 3 different cases. We didn't work with the initial referral but he did a free consultation and provided us with alot of info that was really helpful.
Jillian Spangler was fantastic with our first two cases. We had an extremely unconventional situation and when no one else was able to accommodate, Jillian took us on and we are so grateful for it. What started out as a devastating situation to find ourselves in, ended exactly with resolve we didn't even imagine we could get in our favor so smoothly. Our initial consultation with her we did not feel rushed and she listened attentively. I half jokingly told my husband (and she will never know this till reading this review) that she reminded me of Harley Quinn: Similiar in looks (gorgeous), smart and quick thinking, and not intimidated easily.
