When I made the decision to file, I called around and spoke to a few attorneys. Some of them made me feel like a number, and others were way too pushy. I had like 100 questions and scenarios, and William Von Hoene answered them all. I chose William because I found him to be very compassionate and really listened to my needs. Anytime I had a question, I was able to call, text, or email him and I always received a prompt reply. I had a super experience with him and I recommend you choose him too! 5 Star service for sure!

Bill and Susan Von Hoene are by far the most down to earth Lawyers I have ever met. They take time and talk to you on your level so you can understand what they are actually saying. Very professional, personal, and knowledgeable of what they do. Have been so helpful to me over years of needing their expertise. Seriously wouldn't know what I would have done without their help! The search stops here with them when looking for qualified and helpful legal advise. Thank you so much Bill and Susan, you are the ABSOLUTE Best.

I searched the web for an attorney as I had no referrals. I deliberately wanted to choose an attorney that had experience in our area (real estate) and I also wanted a small firm so that I knew my work wouldn't be passed on to junior associates who would have to refresh themselves each time we needed to converse. We couldn't be more pleased with Daniel and his staff. Our experience with his knowledge and professionalism exceeded our expectations. He never told us 'what we wanted to hear' but kept us informed. If we ever had further legal needs he would be our #1 choice.

We have worked with Daniel for over three years on our "case". We were not always sure what was happening but his periodic updates frankly were enough. He took what we thought was a pretty hopeless situation for us and turned it into a "victory". Not really sure how it all happened but we were amazed when he told us we would be able to settle...favorably. I highly recommend his work!

This attorney was phenomena!. I called his office unexpectedly and was expecting to leave my info for him to call back.
To my surprise Mr. Williamson took my call and answered all my questions. He was patient detailed and made legal suggestions while we were on the phone. His experience was well noted by the answers he provided me today. Thank you, Mr. Williamson.

Colleen Coffield Sachs is probably the GREATEST attorney I have ever had to deal with. Colleen is prompt, friendly, and has a wonderful attitude towards clients. I would highly recommend Colleen for any of your legal needs. If she can't help you, she can find someone who can, but chances are she will have the answer you seek.

In a society striving for equality and justice, it is disheartening to encounter instances where professionals fail to uphold the principles of fairness and respect. Recently, I had the unfortunate experience of witnessing blatant unprofessionalism from Roxanne (a secretary for Daniel) towards African American clients, an incident that not only reflects poorly on the individual but also highlights broader systemic issues within the legal profession.
During my observation, it became evident that the Daniel's office exhibited discriminatory behavior towards African American clients, demonstrating a lack of empathy, understanding, and basic decency. Their demeanor and language were infused with prejudice, as they made insensitive remarks and displayed dismissive attitudes towards the concerns and rights of their African American clients.
Moreover, the Daniel's office actions reflected a clear disregard for professional standards and ethics. Instead of upholding their duty to provide competent and diligent representation, they allowed personal biases to cloud their judgment, resulting in a gross miscarriage of justice for the individuals involved.
Do NOT use this attorney!

When I called Kendra to ask if she could help with a prenuptial agreement, she basically laughed at me like I was an idiot because I was calling on short notice. I felt like she was chastising, and belittling. That was my opinion of her at least. Needless to say a found a different family law attorney who was able to help and didnt give me an attitude like I should have known better. I can not say I would or wouldn't recommend her, but I will say that she was a very rude and condescending woman.

I needed an attorney that could cut through the "games" played during a divorce and provide intelligent guidance leading to a fair settlement. I wasn't looking for someone to assist me with a one-sided arrangement. Fair is fair... and I insisted upon it.
Kendra was excellent at keeping me centered and grounded (and patient even when the ex clearly wanted to drag things out). There were a couple of times that I needed to be firmly brought "back on track" to stay out of trouble - and Kendra was very effective at communicating this message to everyone.
While I don't wish a divorce on my worst enemy... I'd definitely recommend Kendra to anyone seeking solid family legal advice.

Kendra is an empathetic, brilliant, aggressive, forward thinking and eloquent lawyer. In the handful of the best I’ve ever known. She has spent the past 4 years salvaging a disastrous divorce situation for me and turning it into a shining victory. She took intense personal interest, above and beyond what I was paying her for, to “fly high cover” for me. I am forever in her debt.

She ran up $60k before I fired her, literally laughing it up with apposing council. Never fought for me for me at all. She wants to simply walk through every legal procedure possible as she racks up the bill. After I fired her I went to an even more well known "elite" firm and they completely started over and had my best interest in mind which was closure and a fair deal. I do not think she represents men well.

I’ve worked with many lawyers in my professional and personal life. Pilar Prinz is unique in that she combines knowledge, skill, compassion and a strategic plan to reach the goals of the client in an effective way I have never experienced before.
Her dedication and negotiation skills are unmatched, and I could not have hoped for a better outcome to the custody battle she waged on our behalf.
My highest recommendation goes to Pilar and the entire team at her firm.

Pilar is an incredible attorney for many reasons. She is very smart, organized, persuasive, articulate, knowledgeable, detail oriented and experienced. Her preparation in my case was truncated since I had changed attorneys only a few months prior to trail. Pilar put her heart and soul into my case which we won in a big way and probably against the odds.
Pilar is an incredible attorney who was a joy to work with because she listened to what I had to say, kept me on point and gave incredibly good advice always choosing the best course of action. I highly recommend her and her firm.

How Robert Kaufman is able to practice law for your firm continues to die for me.

My review of Brad Ball would be a 0 out of 5 if it were possible. I wish I had considered that the few reviews out there are dated. Recently, I retained him. He was my lawyer for two months, one of which he did not charge me because he ignored my case for one whole month. I have given him $2000, not including the filing and serving fees. During the second month, his unresponsiveness caused me even greater stress. It is ridiculous that I had to beg him for almost 30 days to follow through with what took no time on his part. As a teacher working two to three jobs all year, losing that amount of money for that little work and that much added stress is a huge hit. That being said, after talking to others including getting objective legal advice, I was urged to cut my losses, which is what I did. I have finally secured an established, forthright, and competent female attorney. It has now come to my attention that he did not file many of the documents needed nor was he open and honest about the process I would face. So, I paid him $2000 for what looks like less than an hour’s work. Not to mention, everything he filed will now have to be amended because it is incomplete. Furthermore, he continued to send incredibly sensitive documents including my full social over email without so much as a confidentiality notice at the end of his email. Not only has he taken my money but he has cost me invaluable months and put my financial information at risk. I have never written a negative review. I am only doing so because I want to protect people like me, who truly need someone to care about their case and see it to an efficient and quick resolution. At least for me, he was the antithesis of that. Please beware. I will be reporting him to the Florida Bar.

Mr. Ball is a fantastic attorney. He is extremely knowledgeable and very honest. He will not lead you in the wrong direction. He is timely in returning phone calls and answering e-mails. He makes sure that you know that you are important to him. I have utilized his expertise on more than one occasion.

Ruston Sanders has represented me in two cases and has done extraordinary work on both. He is there when you need him and does an incredible job. At first glance and when you talk to him personally, he is reserved and a bit quiet. But, when he gets in the courtroom and approaches the podium, it's like watching a lion attack a gazelle. I would recommend Ruston to anyone in search of a criminal defense attorney. He cares and gets the job done. I am very much appreciative of what he has done for me.

Ruston Sanders responded immediately to the urgent calling after custody. He contact my family to let them know what was happening and the following day met me in person to discuss strategies appropriate to the case. His knowledge of the law, years of experience in NWFL region, combined with
availability to client and their family allowed me to trust in him with great ease. I would recommend Mr. Sanders to anyone that seeks an attorney who understands the law and his client, and delivers his word to the very end. Thank you Mr. Sanders for being the attorney I trust!!
