If you’re looking for a lawyer to represent you, Steven G Lavely is your guy. We’ve never had a lawyer or needed one until our car accident which is why we started looking for a lawyer. We called around and found Mr. Lavely’s firm, the most personable, they actually cared about helping us.

I had the privilege of working with Steve on a bodily injury case, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional support and representation I received.
From the very beginning, Steve demonstrated a level of compassion that set the tone for our entire legal journey. Dealing with a bodily injury can be emotionally and physically challenging, but Steve made the process significantly more manageable by showing genuine care and empathy. Steve was not just a legal advocate but a supportive guide who ensured I felt heard and understood throughout the entire process.
I wholeheartedly recommend Steve to anyone seeking a compassionate, attentive, and highly skilled attorney.

I had the pleasure of working with Lori Dorman at the beginning of 2020. When I met Lori at her office, she was quick to review the documents I brought in, and immediately began making calls. She wasted no time in getting answers and results. She got further in five minutes than I was able to get in five months. She took control of my case, and successfully produced an outcome even I could not have anticipated. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone. She knows what she's doing!!!

I first met Lori on recommendation from a colleague nearly ten years ago. The circumstances at that time were such that she was unable to assist with my desired outcome of an employment contract situation. However, having already sized up a good sense of her astute knowledge of employment law and empathetic presence, five years later on when I was in a better position to move forward in my career dreams she was the first individual I turned to. She has since provided me and my company with numerous consultations, defense support, and other personal legal services. Lori has always been keenly aware of or quickly done the research to inform herself of the legal statutes, interpretations, and precedents at stake; and if not her area of expertise, made this known and referred me to other highly qualified individuals. Over time we developed a strong mutual respect and have made a number of cross-referrals for our respective areas of expertise. This is one lawyer you would be proud to call yours.

Having risked everything we had to start a company that I was terminated from, I felt that my whole world come crashing down. That was until Lori met with my wife and I and explained that we had a right to what we had sacrificed so much to build... even though we had no written agreement. Three weeks later we regained almost all of what we were due and was able to move on with our lives. With her help we have been able to BENIFIT from what was originally thought to be a life shattering event. Thank you!!

I came to know and respect Terri Cromley as an opposing counsel. I had and have respect for the way she knew the law, was highly professional, and advocated tirelessly for her clients. Because of that first hand experience with Terri Cromley, I refer cases to her regularly and have her on speed dial to ask her for advice on matters involving SSDI and workers compensation.

Terri took on a tough case with a life altering, and devastating injury. I am a lawyer who does not practice in this area of law. My Husband hired Terri when he had a work injury (falling off of a ladder while installing OSHA safety equipment of all things) he was off his feet for 12 weeks while the doctor’s reconstructed his leg. These injuries will last a lifetime and mean limping, pain and future surgeries. It looks like an erector set from childhood holding all those bones together.
Terri and her firm kept us informed, and advised of his rights. She championed his case even through the covid lockdown and the corresponding slow down in the courts. When it came to the two mediations it took to get this case settled, Terri made sure to cover all the legal bases and tell us his rights. It was a blessing to have her on Rob’s side.

Whenever anyone asks me for a referral for Social Security or Workers compensation cases, I send them to Terri. She's smart, efficient and really knows the law. When I have questions about these areas, Terri's the person I call. Most importantly, she cares about her clients and always works hard for them. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would.

I had to hired a Lawer for a work permit authorization, and I was running out of time with the expiration of my license. Attorney at law Johan Zingile took the task and after collecting all the necessary supportive documents, the application was sent. Timing were favorable to us, after a week we did receive the confirmation of the approval & the card was in the mail after few weeks. I appreciate the expertise of Mr Johan, he did an excellent work, and if isn’t too busy I certainly recommend him for immigration cases.
Sincerely Maurizio Ibba

I just settled a dispute with my former landlord over prepaid rents and rent deposits. The landlord had previously agreed to release me from my lease so that I could purchase a home.
Shortly after I terminated my lease and moved out, the landlord began stringing me along saying that her attorneys (a high-power firm in Sarasota) had told her that she could keep all of my prepaid rents and deposits and return nothing to me. We are talking to an excess of $13,000, so I contacted Attorney Derek DiPasquale based upon his Avvo reviews. Mr. DiPasquale was able to quickly get me a very favorable resolution without the need to go to court. Attorney DiPasquale was always available to respond to my questions and concerns, but more importantly, he provided me with excellent legal guidance. He definitely knows his legal subject matter, and was fully prepared to handle my case. He also knows his way around the local legal circles, and I found him to be very fair, honest, and knowledgeable.
I am very pleased with Attorney DiPasquale, and will re commend him to anyone who needs a high-quality legal mind in his corner. In fact, when my situation was resolved, I grabbed several of his business cards to pass along to my friends, and more importantly, to keep for myself, should I need to speak with an attorney in the future.
In my opinion, Attorney DiPasquale is one of the best attorneys that I have encountered in my 56 year old life which includes my 24 year federal law enforcement officer career.

I have used Derek a couple of times for my business and I will continue to do so in the future as well.

He is very attentive, responded quickly, and communication was beyond my expectation.

What a relief to find someone so knowledgeable and helpful when you feel like you have reached the end of your rope. I have tried everything on my own to no avail. One phone call to Nancy and we not only have a game plan, but she is very open to what we may or may not accomplish. Don't try to do this on your own when you can find help for a very nominal fee.

Our case has not yet come to fruition but as it was developing, I felt compelled to speak to the value we have received from Esq. Cahall and his lovely and precise Staff.
Have you ever felt like you have something you must be heard on but the halls are empty of ears? Esq. Cahall made himself available, sacrificed his time, allowed time for our budget to meet his value, he made us feel human after we had been wronged by someone in our community. We are truly proud of his success and winning our favor. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you.

On July 22, 2008, I hired Daphne Clements for a civil case. We had a contract and I paid her a retainer of $3000,00. On July 23, 2008 she deposited the check. This was the last time I heard from her. She took my $3000.00 retainer and never performed and services for me. So not only was I out the$3000.00 retainer, but I had to hire a new attorney. To this day this money has never been returned. I hope she does not do this to anyone else. I did not forget the rating, she receives zero stars from me, but i had to at least mark one star. When I checked into this matter with the State, they said she had been suspended and I would have to file a law suit to recover my retainer that was paid and no services given.

I have many friends in the local Sarasota and Bradenton Florida legal communities. When it came time for my wife and I to update our complex estate planning, I first asked my friends for recommendations. The one resounding recommendation was Attorney Todd Kaplan. I was told that he would not only serve my needs, but that he is the area's premier estate planning, probate, trust administration, business and tax attorney. I couldn't agree more, and my wife and I found Todd to be personable, respectful, professional, knowledgeable and that he obviously possesses a solid report in the legal community. Like Todd, his staff is easy to deal with and exemplify excellence. When it came to our disabled child, Todd was not only compassionate, but we were surprised to find that Todd is highly involved in a local charity for people with disabilities. Seeing such a busy attorney giving so much back to the community was very impressive. Likewise, his tax planning for our child's disability and my several businesses is the epitome of a skilled practitioner. After completion of my estate planning, I chose Todd to represent my businesses as well, and he has shown the exact same diligence and high standard that I have become accustomed to. When my mother passed away several months after we discovered Todd, he also represented me as personal representative in the probate of my mother's estate. He has that "x-factor" magnetic personality that makes everyone seem to gravitate toward him. I have dealt with many attorneys in the past, and I realized quickly that Mr. Kaplan is the attorney that I want on my side. For the reader of this review, if you take anything away from what I have written above, it should be that Mr. Kaplan is one of the few well-rounded and highly skilled attorneys that represent what the rest of the legal industry should strive to be.

Todd was reccomended by a neighbor and friend to update my will and trust since it had not been updated since my husband passed away 8 years ago. I had put off making revisions to my will and trust since my husband passed away because my last experience with another local attorney who had drafted our first will and trust (and then handled my husband's estate) was not a positive one. Based on that last experience, I was intimidated to see an attorney by myself but knew that i needed to get this accomplished. When i got to the offices of Icard Merrill in Lakewood Ranch, I was greeted warmly by the receptionist and then by Todd's legal assistant. Mr. Kaplan was on time for the appointment and from the first minute, I was comforted by his demeanor. He took the time to explain the relevant laws, review my documents and make good suggestions that will save my children alot of time and money upon my passing. He provided me with a flat fee quote (and actually charged me a little less than quoted) and my work was completed relatively timely. Overall, I was extremely happy with the and comforted by the experience. If you are like me and heistant to see an attorney, I would not hesitate to suggest and reccomend Todd.

I came to see Todd for issues and advice regarding my company. We have grown substantially over the past few years but did not have all of the necessary documentation to protect myself and my business. I have partners and Todd took the time to explain a number of issues and problems with the current structure. He also had several suggestions to reduce our current tax liability. Todd ultimately drafted a well needed operating/buy-sell agreement that was specific to our business needs. This new operating agreement was far better than the cookie cutter Operating agreement (full of errors) that I got when I set up my company with another local attorney.I also just made an appointment to update mine and my husband's wills and trusts since they have not been looked at in over 10 years. I presume that this experience will be as successful as the first one. I definately recommend Todd to anyone looking for a smart, knowledgeable (and affordable) attorney.

Phillip Harward represented me in a family legal matter. He was prompt in answering my call for help. He was knowledgeable of what the next steps we needed to do until he was able to arrive for consultation and the next steps of this case. He was professional in handling my case. His research and knowledge of case law is impeccable. Mr. Harward's communication during our interviews was clear and he used language that I could understand. My case was so well prepared, the judge and other attorneys took note and remarked on how well the materials were presented.

Mr. Sowa has provided me with legal assistance and direction concerning estate planning and trust issues. His "one-man-show" approach to working with clients is a welcome change from the typical overly-staffed attorney's office. He is quick to respond to questions and or to do the appropriate research to ensure his clients have a full understanding of their legally available options. Because he works independently Walter is able to develop an in-depth knowledge and understanding of his client's desires/needs. Having known Walter for several years, I am totally comfortable with recommending him as a legal representative for anyone wishing to attain the services of an attorney who hasn't lost his moral compass.

Adron Walker is more than an excellent Attorney - he is a friend for life. Adron has handled the creation of seven (7) corporate entities for us. He has handled the purchase and sale of over 75 commercial and residential properties for us over the past 27 years. With and only with his direct involvement were we able to preserve our assets, credit and sanity following the anguish of "The Great Recession". He is the only attorney we will refer family, friends and clients to. He not only has got us through the "good times" - he has got us through several bad ones as well. He has handled the estates of both of our parents. His knowledge in conjunction with his tenacity are unparalled. It is not uncommon to receive phone calls well into the evening or on weekends. His committment and dedication to his clients are unsurpassed. I could utilize the entire capacity of the allotted space for this review and still not be able to say enough "good" about Adron Walker. If you are fortunate enough to choose Adron Walker as your counsel - consider yourself to have chosen well. The integrity he adds to his profession is stellar.

Jonathan served as General Council for a large practice which I served as CEO. He is incredibly knowledgeable, trustworthy, fair, and is the best attorney I have ever worked with in my career. His focus on healthcare law allows him to be laser focused on the myriad of issues facing the industry today. In addition, Jonathan's insight and instincts around the rapid and massive changes going on in the healthcare industry allows him to also play a vital role as a strategist and trusted advisor -- especially as we enter the New Health Age (which he co-authored a book with futurist David Houle) about to be published call the New Health Age. I have had the opportunity to read the book before it is published and it is SPOT ON -- a MUST READ for anyone in the healthcare industry!

I am always confident in my positions as long as I have Jonathan to back me. His knowledge base is impressive and his ability to relate to medical professionals is excellent. I have also referred patients to him who have reported nothing short of glowing reviews and great success with his help. My personal business is also handled by his associates. I would recommend Jonathan Fleece without reservation.

I contacted Jason to help me with the tough and sad times of caring for my grandmother in her finals months. Jason was very compassionate to my situation and helped immensely in preparing all the necessary documents for her.
Jason's demeanor and compassion were a very welcomed change to the normal "turn and burn" attitude with which most attorneys these days approach these types of situations.
I would highly recommend Jason for any and all services for which he is an expert.

Mr. DePaola's depth of knowledge and professionalism were evident by the way he handled different engagements, including purchasing real estate and fielding numerous questions/concerns related to the complex estate of a loved one. His timeliness and the rate of information flow far exceeded my lofty expectations. As a result of my experiences working with Mr. DePaola on more than one occasion, I have absolutely no qualms recommending him, and I will no doubt call upon him again as the needs arise.

The Podor Law Firm was invaluable in helping my company through a challenging time. Before working with The Podor Law Firm we had several accounts that were late on payments and were taking advantage of our previous contract that lacked several key points that protected our business practices. The team at Podor Law not only went out of their way to ensure our company received all the outstanding balances from late accounts. They were able to re-write our current contracts so that we would not be in the same situation again. Jesse was beyond responsive, helpful and knowledgeable. We now run our business with more confidence because we know that The Podor Law Firm has our best interest.

I can not rave about Sierra Butler at Butler Elder Law enough. Sierra helped my family and I through an extremely difficult time in our lives. We had two other lawyers who had neglected to do their jobs accurately and had failed to file important documents in a timely matter. I was panicking and stressed and Sierra came through in a big way. She literally fixed everything for us. We had a complicated situation and what started out as something we thought was going to take multiple court visits and multiple pleadings ended up being handled quickly and efficiently by Sierra. She was patient and kind and thorough in her explanations. She knew her what she was talking about and after the first conversation with her, I knew we'd picked the right lawyer. She was always easily accessible, both on the phone and through email, and got back with me promptly. All of these are things we had not experienced with our other lawyers. I can say without conviction that you will not be disappointed with her.
