Mark Longwell is truly one of the best attorneys I've ever had the privilege of working with. His track record speaks for itself—100 out of 100! Wins! Every case feels like he's fighting for his own family, but instead, he's fighting for mine. Longwell Lawyers consistently delivers exceptional service, and I will continue to rely on Mark and his outstanding team whenever I need legal representation. Their reasonable pricing, prompt communication, and deep understanding of the law make them unbeatable. I highly recommend Longwell Lawyers to anyone seeking top-tier legal expertise without having to search through endless reviews—this is the firm you can trust to get the job done right.

Update* first and foremost, I have not had time sharing with my son since I asked Mouse to file contempt. That was 26 days ago. This was the action that Longwell advised against. Then the moment he filed for withdraw, the opposing side figured they don’t have to follow any time sharing. They know he has my $, and they know I can’t hire another lawyer without that $.
Second, abusive? How does being disrespectful magically upgrade to abusive? Oh I wrote a review, so you lied. Get over it. Let’s define abuse. Improper use of something. You quit, you’re holding onto TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLARS, with zero legal ability to charge against it, and you refuse to return it to your former client so he can hire a new lawyer. That’s abusing funds. My pool boy returns the money within a week if he doesn’t provide the service.
Third, you did not call me Mr Longwell, which means you could not have left a message. If you did, prove it cause I can prove you didn’t. Why would you lie about something so trivial.
I’ve updated to include the most recent billing after they quit. It is an indisputable fact that they have now paid themselves more in one month to quit, than any of the other previous months they claimed they did diligent work.
I hired Longwell lawyers early 2021 for a paternity trial. It is August 2024, no parenting plan agreement. No Trial, Carson Mouser is withdrawing claiming I am rude and disrespectful. I never hired him, I had hired a different attorney in their firm and my case was eventually “assessed to benefit” from being appointed Mouser. I had no choice in the matter.
He had agreed to go to trial, I paid him $2000 to “prepare” and then Mouser requested $10,000 for trial. Eventually the opposition hired a lawyer and requested an update within 30 days or I was going to default. I sent an email to Mouser asking what I needed at the beginning of the work week. He never responded, at all. I sent him two more emails after the mother refused to exchange at the end of the work week, he didn’t respond. I had to call Mousers office, once he got on the phone I had asked him why he didn’t answer me and he said that I sent my email directly to him. My exact words were, “that’s a problem?” And Mouser said he’s done, he’s withdrawing. So I asked for a return of my money, he said to call the office.
I call the office and they tell me they will ONLY RETURN MY MONEY AFTER I SIGN CONSENT and then they have 90 days to return it after the motion is granted. I ask for my file and they said they only turn it over after withdrawing.
Let’s be super clear. They were paid since 2021 to go to trial. They have 12k specifically for trial. They have made their intentions clear they will NOT go to trial. But will NOT return money they do not intend to use. They are aware I have to respond to the courts within 24 days or I default.
Can you imagine your former lawyer holding onto the only $ you had for trial after they filed for a trial date, $ which they don’t even intend to use? I don’t make a lot of money. They know that though. I have been the sole provider for daycare for the entire year, and barely can pay that.
I see Mark Longwell has responded to a previous poor review about Carson Mouser. His argument will be I was rude and disrespectful. Even if your lawyers assumed I was disrespectful, their response is to blow the case for their precious client? Hold onto money I’ve paid for trial after filing for a trial? If anything I said here is untrue, you should sue me. Cause I’ve been left with the choice to either pay for a new lawyer, or pay for VPK.
$12,000 being held. 40kish more already wasted. I should have never hired them and fired them the moment they stuck Mr Mouse on the job without my consent.
I should have just bought oceanfront property in Colorado. The same exact result would be happening right now. No parenting plan, no trial, money for trial stuck with in a useless spot.

I can’t say enough about this firm. If you’re looking for an attorney that will make the most out of your case and is also compassionate look no further. This firm has the best attorneys in the area. They are always there when you need them and answer calls and e-mails right away. One of the attorneys in particular, Muna Abraham has gone above and beyond to fix something that was handled incorrectly by another firm. She not only fixed the issue in a timely manner, but kept touching base with us to make sure everything is going the way it should. She is extremely knowledgeable and updated in the changing laws and will work hard for you! Not every firm is the same, and if I could give this one a 10 star I would. Thank you so much!!

I’m writing this as a warning for special needs parents who are looking for legal help. We contacted Shay almost two years ago, needing help with a special needs trust and a birth certificate issue. She said she could handle both for us and we paid 3k up front. During the next 18 months, we had to consistently call her office for updates regarding the trust. It took over a year for her to finish writing it, and then when we finally received it, we found she had written the wrong name down for guardianship. A big error!
As for the birth certificate issue, it never got fixed. We would call her office every few weeks for an update. But finally, we just stopped calling and we haven’t heard from her in over 6 months. This entire experience was horrible for us! I’m shocked that her rating is as high as it is on here… We paid her 3k and baaarely got half of what was promised.

Gwen is an exceptional human. She is incredibly smart, offering clear, strategic advice that made navigating my legal issues much easier. Her direct approach is refreshing; she doesn't sugarcoat things, which helped me understand the realities of my case and set realistic expectations.
What truly sets her apart is her responsiveness—she always made time to answer my questions, often getting back to me quicker than I expected. Despite her efficiency, she never compromised on kindness. Throughout the process, she was empathetic and supportive, making me feel valued and understood. I couldn't have asked for a better advocate on my side. Highly recommended!

I recently worked with Milena and her team to obtain my permanent residence, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final submission, they were incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive. They guided me through every step of the process, ensuring that all my documents were in order and that I understood what to expect. Their expertise made a daunting task much more manageable. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking help with immigration matters!

When I was in deep trouble did not know which step to take, I was on the area coming back from class, I saw the office with the phone number then I called, I had a great chat, Set an appointment. soon after that appointment I realized that was the best step, it was conducting by GOD, the way they proceed to help me, the professionalism was awesome, unbeatable, the main thing is the way the attorney would keep it real with you about the evolution of your case, in terms of not giving you false promises, letting you know exactly how it is, and the team would lead you throughout the whole process towards your goal, That was a learning process for me, a great journey, again, and I will be Happy to refer anyone to this firm.
Thank you Attorney Portillo, Thank you Vanessa, and a big thanks for all the other team members!!!

I highly NOT recommend Mrs. Kay-Ann Waite. I hired her in April and at the beginning she told me it wasn’t going to take too long and it seemed she was going to work hard for me. Then, I had to constantly ask for updates since she didn’t provided any without me asking. It is June now and since 2 weeks ago, I have been calling to her office and sending emails and text messages asking for updates but it seems pointless. If she is not planning to get the job done, I would like to get a refund and hire another lawyer.

I have been dealing with Mark Horwitz and his office for over 20 years for various reasons. Mark is probably the best criminal defense attorney in Orlando.. He is smart, reliable and responsive. When I could not get him on the phone his office always relayed messages and provided responses. I highly recommend Mark and his team for any legal matter on which they are able to represent you. Don't hesitate to retain him.

We recommend Geoff and Family First Firm to all of our residents' families. They navigate families through the qualification process for VA and Medicaid benefits. These benefits can be a great way to supplement care costs for memory care services like ours. Geoff's team is excellent to work with, and they always answer our questions with proven experience and knowledge.

Geoffrey just did A-Z estate planning for my family and we were very pleased with his firm. They met with us at our convenience and got everything squared away for us in a timely manner and before we left the country on vacation. Needless to say; we were able to relax even more on our vacation knowing that our family affairs are in order should anything happen. We absolutely recommend the Family First Firm to our friends, family, and anyone needing to plan for their families future. They made this experience about as easy and enjoyable as it can be.

When my Father, a 90-year-old WWII veteran, indicated that, he was no longer able to manage his affairs I had to act quickly. I had never been privy to my Father’s finances or affairs until he asked for help. Furthermore, I live out of state. I was stressed handling this matter from afar. Luckily, Attorney Geoff Hoatson was recommended by my father’s longtime attorney as a specialist in Estate Planning. From the beginning, Geoff and his staff were clear, efficient, professional, and caring. Geoff and his staff worked quickly and offered solutions to issues I did not even know we had. He and his staff accommodated my schedule to ensure all matters were well attended. They are attentive to detail and responsive. I highly recommend Attorney Geoffrey Hoatson and The Family First Firm!

Justice for the little people is something I never believed in until I met Riley Allen. He has a keen intellect, a kind heart and an amazing way of analyzing the facts of your case. He recognized an unfair bully situation with a previous employer who fired me as a strategic move to avoid paying me money that was due. Riley wrote the most amazing letter I have ever read in my life. The letter brought tears to my eyes as he was validating the unfair extortion methods being used against me and now was giving me his voice to fight for justice. I met Mr. Allen quite by chance and explained my situation hoping he might refer me to an attorney near me who could help, but instead he chose to defend me and for this I will always be grateful. If you have a dragon if your life that needs slaying I recommend you seek out this champion to be by your side.

As mentioned above, I contacted Riley to help resolve issues caused when another attorney really blew it on a case I had filed against an ex-partner for theft of monies (shares). Riley's knowledge and 'fearlessness' in the face of the opposing attorney resulted in my having a frivolous 'counter suit' thrown out. I am 99.9 % percent certain that had I retained Riley for the original suit I would have easily prevailed and not suffered almost 5 years of ineffective counseling and the resultant losses and costs.

He is incredibly intelligent, has a caring demeanor and is bent toward concise and deliberate action. He's the best!

I had the pleasure of working with Amal Laassel for my citizenship exam, and I can't recommend her highly enough! As an Arabic speaker, her ability to communicate in my language made the process so much easier and less stressful. She was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, guiding me through every step of the immigration process. Her personalized study materials and thorough preparation really boosted my confidence. On exam day, I felt ready and well-supported, thanks to her dedication. I’m thrilled to say I passed! If you need an immigration attorney who understands both the legal complexities and the cultural nuances, Amal Laassel is the one to choose. Thank you for everything!

I hired Amal to represent me in my citizenship interview after I had been denied. I was told that i shouldn’t hire an attorney because it will not help me at all and that I would never get my citizenship. But Amal was amazing! She helped me with the process step by step and even helped me study for the test. Today I was approved and she was even able to get me my oath ceremony right away. She is really smart and fights for you. I had options to chose other immigration lawyers in Orlando that speak Arabic and Moroccan but I chose Amal because I had a good feeling when I met her and and I am so happy!!! She is A+++
