This powerhouse team of Dusty and Natasha is unlike any other. I happened to come across Dusty in a google search desperate for the right person to help me navigate my divorce. In my first conversation with her, I knew she was it. Words don't do her and Natasha justice. Dusty doesn't miss a beat. She KNOWS her stuff, to every detail. She isnt afraid of those attorneys who have like to say alot but do very little. If it wasn't for her, I don't believe I would have equal timesharing of the children. There is a reason she has 5 stars. Trust me, she will be the best decision you ever make. I am the happiest I have ever been because of her and Natasha!

I started with a different law firm and was going no where. I was refers to Dusty Twyman law firm and it was a blessing. Ms. Twyman did not tell me what I was going to get , as the law firm I started with. She explained to me what she was going to do on the consultation that we had before I started with her. After Ms. Twyman fixed all that was wrong from the first law firm and got it all fixed in the court.
Then the worst thing that could happen to a parent happened! I sent the information to Ms. Twyman in an email , this was an after hour matter, and Ms. Twyman called me and told me to trust her and let her do her job. I was reluctant and emotions were running high. I took a deep breath and told her I would let her do her job. She fought every battle and told me to keep trusting her. I did.
In the end Ms Twyman and Natasha Twyman are the best. They got me through the battle and won the war for the most important person in my life. I cannot thank them enough.
If I could give ten stars, this law firm would get it.

In my 16-year career as a claims adjuster I have had the opportunity to work with several attorneys. When I was involved in a car accident, I didn’t think twice about contacting Mr. Lucero to assist me. I called him after business hours, and he addressed all my concerns with a great deal of empathy and professionalism. I contacted him almost 6 months after my accident and placed unrealistic time constraints on him to meet my upcoming mediation. He worked tirelessly and expeditiously to get me the compensation that I deserved. He treated me like family and had my best interest at heart. Mr. Lucero communicated often and made sure he was available to address any questions or concerns that I had. I’m grateful for all the hard work and time he dedicated to getting my case resolved. Anytime, I need legal advice he’s my go to person. His experience and professionalism are unparalleled.

Tim Lucero worked relentlessly for three years on my small personal injury case. Though my case was definitely not the largest case he was handling. he always made me feel as a priority. He did not stop until we got what the outcome we were hoping for. Though I hope I won't need his services again, I know that I can have a dedicated lawyer on my side should I need it. I highly recommend Tim Lucero.

Let me begin this review by explaining that I had an EXTREMELY rough case to overcome due to an unrelated attorney I had hired prior to Mr. Kelley. My case was also very unique in its level of difficulty in general, so that also added to the likelihood that I would not see a successful outcome. At the recommendation of the PBA, I retained Kelley Law Group and was consulted by Mr. Kelley on a different direction he thought we should take in relation to my case. He was upfront and honest with me in his belief that my case may not be winnable due to several errors made by others and myself prior. He was NOT there just to take my money...he appeared 100% compassionate (Workers Comp really put me through the ringer!) and wanted nothing more than to get me the desired outcome I wanted and rightfully deserved. The following was a very unlikely thing for me to personally do but I was at the end of my rope -- I decided to put every ounce of faith into Mr. Kelley and adhere by everything he insisted we do to give my case at least a fighting chance. His professional/legal advice was a Godsend to me. Because of this man's hard work, knowledge of the law and attention to detail, along with the dedication and hard work from all of the employees at Kelley Law Group, I WON MY CASE!! The decision I won has literally changed my life for the best, hands down!
If you have been bent over the proverbial barrel by Workmans Comp and even your agency, do yourself a favor and at least call Kelley Law Group for a consultation. The decision to retain Kelley Law Group may have been the best decision I ever made in my career of over 23 years. Thank you to Mr. Kelley and his ENTIRE staff -- you will always be heroes to me! ~Bobby M.

First and foremost obtaining a FRS duty disability it can be a long process and by no means easy. DO NOT ATTEMPT this alone. Laws change all the time Federal, State and Work mans comp. Paul Kelley stays on top of all that! Remember he has 35 years as an Attorney and comes from a law enforcement family. He is no doubt time and money well spent. And during the pandemic Paul and his amazing staff could get calls through to other Attorney, Doctors and State offices effectively. What more could a client ask for? Thanks Paul for helping me get the benefit I am truly deserving of. Sincerely Mark

In 2006, while working as a patrol officer, I had a heart attack on the job. This led to several weeks in the hospital and months of recovery. The City I work for denied my claim under the Heart and Lung Bill. Based upon recommendation from my union, I sought out Paul Kelley to represent me. I did not know it at the time, but this would turn out to be the best decision I have ever made.
The city fought ruthlessly to deny my claim; so much so that at one point, I wondered if it was worth the fight. Paul assured me that it was and he was absolutely right. The city continued to deny my claim and Paul took them to court and won. Despite this, the city still denied my claim and appealed. Paul went before the appellate court in Miami, which consisted of a 3 judge panel. All three judges unanimously upheld our win in the lower court. The city now, by court order, recognizes and is responsible for my claim.
Since 2006, I have had to have many heart related procedures. I had to retire medically as a police officer. Paul represented me through all of this and negotiated a transition from officer to a civilian administrative position, where I presently continue to work.
In 2020, I developed severe heart failure and had to undergo an evaluation for a heart transplant. Paul again represented me throughout this very scary time. Thanks to Paul and his team, I received the medical attention that I needed in a timely manner. Luckily, I did not have to undergo transplantation at this time and am continuing to receive medical therapy.
I have had the need for an attorney more than I have ever imagined that I would. I can tell you, Paul is an absolute expert pertaining to the Heart and Lung Bill and Worker's Compensation. Above all else, he is one of the nicest and most caring people you will ever meet. He has put together a team of experts. Connie, Barbara and Kristin are the best! During this recent transplant scare, they worked late hours and did whatever it took to make sure that I got what I needed medically. You absolutely cannot go wrong with choosing Paul to represent you. 14 years after choosing Paul, I still say it was the best decision I have ever made.

It is very hard to find individuals you can truly trust in the marketplace anymore. Professionalism, responsiveness, and integrity are getting harder and harder to come by, so when I find someone who exudes all of the above, I take them and do not let go! This is exactly how Chelsea, with The Metka Law Firm, runs every aspect of her business. From the moment I begin a transaction with her, whether it be a real estate closing, client representation, or a simple title search, she is quick, honest, and extremely upfront. She crosses every T and dots every I. Never have I dealt with someone who is as thorough as she is and who truly cares about the clients she represents. I cannot say enough about this company and will never go elsewhere when referring legal representation or when needing legal counsel for my own personal needs. Chelsea is the one to call!

There is not enough space or time to express how amazing Heather Trombly is. She is an excellent attorney, a trusted voice and in come instances a magician. She takes a personal interest in each and every client, and truly makes you feel heard, justified and important. Heather helped me in so many different facets, over a long and detailed custody case. She was a voice of reason, professional and even a pitbull when it came to opposing counsel and legalities. I could write a novel about all the great and amazing things she was able to help me accomplish in my case – and how fair, understanding and strong she was in the process. I cannot recommend Heather Trombly enough. If you want the absolute best in the business she is the right person for your case.

Heather has been incredible. Not only is she professional, she's also compassionate and has worked diligently for us every step of the way. She is thorough in her research and execution of strategy and has kept me updated as to new developments as soon as they occur. Whenever I've been anxious about some aspect of our case, she's walked me through my options in a very logical, step-by-step way that has helped keep me calm as has given me a better understanding of what we face. On top of that, she's realistic. I know exactly what to expect every step of the way.
I honestly don't know where we would be without her help and support. Thank you so much, Heather, for everything you've done and continue to do for us. I hope you know how much we appreciate it and how important you are!

When I had my bike accident I had the opportunity to hire a friend of a friend at a discounted rate. However, after talking to Peter and his team I could tell there was a difference, and I’m thankful I made the right choice.
They took so much time with me to make sure I was okay each step along the way. I not only felt good about how my case was being handled, but I also felt good about how Peter and his team were fighting for bike advocacy. They took time to explain officers involved in my case the rights of cyclists on the road.
They were thorough and tenacious all while being caring and compassionate. Every detail was considered. They always made time for a phone or video call to explained any questions I had along the way. I never would have expected the outcome I had. I’m so thankful to have had the support of Peter and Bike Law after such a stressful time in my life.

In May of 2022, I was hit by an ATV during an Ironman race in Panama City Beach, FL. I broke 8 ribs, had facial lacerations, and other injuries. Plus, my bike was battered. I tried to just recover my medical expenses, cost to replace my bike, etc. through the help of a local attorney. It went nowhere. Then I reached out to Rachael Maney and her team at Bike Law. They were incredibly receptive, kind, and tenacious. They pursued my case hard and got me a settlement that, at least, covered my medical expenses, bike, and other items. It took two years and they never gave up for me. I hope you never need them, but if something happens, they are awesome and I highly recommend them.

After suffering a catastrophic injury at work I consulted with 2 NY attorneys and then a prominent NJ law firm. All 3 told me I didn't have a case, that it would be "impossible" to get any settlement . Fortunately I ran into Mr. Berger one day while shopping and my accident came up in conversation. He felt that he could help me and asked if I would mind if he looked into my case. He hired a forensic engineer and ultimately I got a rather large settlement for my "impossible" case. I have since had the pleasure of introducing numerous friends and relatives to Mr. Berger. We have all found him to be caring, compassionate and professional. A true champion of the "impossible".

Never been in trouble in my entire life. Never needed a lawyer before. Living in Solivita back into a post trying to open the gate that wouldn't open. Late for appointment asked the guard to open the gate which she did. Looked at my car when I got home 3 houses from the gate no damage to my car went to my appointment. Got back and the police was at my door saying leaving a scene of an accident. Never been so scared in my entire life.

My husband looked up Lawyers got match up with Mr. William Santana he came right out to my home. Great lawyer.Tried to put me at ease but until it's completed over I won't be at ease.

As a lawyer I ALWAYS hate having to be the client. But I know that in most circumstances I am WAY better off hiring a lawyer to handle the situation than trying to do it myself. Working with Tom on my case is absolutely one of those situations. He did an amazing job, kept me informed, and really got us a great resolution on a very pressing matter. I hope to never go through this situation again, but if I do, I know which lawyer I am bringing in to help me...it's Tom and his team.

You know an attorney is great when other attorneys hire them for their cases. Tom Morelli did an absolutely amazing job for my husband and I on our roof claim. I have heard horror stories about how these cases can drag on for years and you end up settling for pennies to finally get any sort of roof put on. Tom Morelli got us a quick resolution (under a year) and we didn't have to comprimise on the amount to resolve our claim so that we can pay for the new roof and all of the damage caused by a hurricane. Hire him today, you won't regret it.

It's amazing. Mr. Mashburn doesn't bug you with marketing crap at all. Who wants to be pitched reverse mortgages or something like that? He "hasn't even gone there" and that's the way I like it; and then when you really need him bad, then and only then will he call and give you an informed, street smart, and well-informed briefing of what's going on and what's to come. Lauds to him on all matters legal, especiallly around this town. (You NEED an attorney who knows your town). I am impressed thus far! Smooth sailing in court to all!

Eric Mashburn is a straightforward and knowledgeable attorney. He truly cares about my legal matters, and my dealings with him has always been in a professional and comfortable manner. I've had past attorneys who charge a bundle but I have never met. They will only talk to you on the phone, or have their paralegal or secretary contact you. From day one, I was on a lengthy phone conversation with Eric, and met him in person soon after. That's the type of attorney I want. Someone who is there when you need them, not someone who only there when you need to pay them. I highly recommend Eric for legal services.

His assistant Lynn was very helpful as well.
I highly recommend Mr. Mashburn.

Immediately we felt comfortable that Nick and his team understood the issue, and could litigate it successfully. Legal matters are never fun in business, but sadly a reality often unavoidable.

(Even in the hight of COVID-19) We would never use another firm in a commercial dispute. Thank you Nick, Ryan & Laura! Chad & Daniel

We engaged Nick and his team in a commercial contract dispute, being referred by our long time CPA. Immediately we felt comfortable that Nick and his team understood the issue, and could litigate it successfully. Legal matters are never fun in business, but sadly a reality often unavoidable. They were professional, aggressive, and most importantly....we never wondered what was going on with the matter. (Even in the hight of COVID-19) We would never use another firm in a commercial dispute. Thank you Nick, Ryan & Laura! Chad & Daniel
