Having worked with this firm on two separate legal needs in two years (a short sale and finances), I can enthusiastically recommend Roland Acosta and his team. Their professionalism, courtesy, and knowledge of their area of law impressed me as much as the compassion they show to their clients. Legal processes can be daunting, but Acosta & Associates are so competent and reassuring you will know you're in excellent hands.

I have known and worked with Roland Acosta for over 10 years. I routinely refer clients to Roland for assistance with residential closings, short sales, mortgage workouts and refinancing. On more than one occassion my friends and clients have come back to me to tell me how much they appreciated my referral, how easy it was to work with Roland, how hard Roland worked for them and would crow about the successful results of his representation. Roldand Acosta is an extraordinary attorney.

Mr. Acosta's firm handled a short sale on my mother's and my condo. From our first meeting, we felt very comfortable and confident they would be looking out for our best interest. They kept in contact with us and informed through the entire process. They even extended their expertise and help on another issue for my mother. I would highly recommend them and would not hesitate to call on them again.

Elizabeth represented me in connection with a real estate acquisition in February 2020. Elizabeth is the consummate professional, with a thorough knowledge of real estate transactional matters, including complex and unusual issues that came up in my deal. But what separates Elizabeth from other quality attorneys is her perfect balance between firmness (when needed) and politeness, which can tame anyone.

I recommend Elizabeth without reservation.

When I met Susan I was going through the worst time in my life. Never having used an attorney I didn't know what to expect. Her experience and knowledge with handling divorces helped in every aspect. I couldn't be more happier with my divorcee precedings and outcome. Her encouragement and positive attitude got me through this difficult situation. God Bless you Susan Williams you are truly my guardian angel.

Mrs. Williams is an excellent attorney. She handled an adoption case for us. She was always quick to answer questions and return calls and emails. She encouraged and reassured us along the way. She handled everything with excellence and integrity. She was a blessing to us and helped us become a family! I have recommended her to both my family and colleagues.

Mrs. Williams has helped us with several matters over the last few years. With every issue, she gives it her full attention and expertise. She is always kind and sensitive in dealing with us, but is tough when it comes to our legal matter. She is dedicated to getting the outcome that her clients desire. I appreciate that she has a high, Christian ethical standard. That is refreshing not only in the legal profession, but society in general today! She has proven over and over for us that you can be a bulldog in court and in working with other attorneys and still maintain a high level of professional ethics.
If you're looking for an honest, tough attorney that will work hard for you, call Mrs. Williams! You will not be disappointed!

During the time of loss due to injury caused by the negligence of others--the process of finding the best advocate can be an overwhelming and daunting task for those seeking justice for their loved one. With tragedy, this task seems almost unfair that one would have to go through this on top of everything else. I thank God that friends of mine who are also lawyers pointed me to the Maher Law Firm for help. Honest, Integrity, thoroughness, professionalism, expert, care and understanding are just a few of the adjectives to describe Steve and his team. They will get at the truth and deliver victory in holding those responsible to the consequences of their actions. For me, there is none better than Steve Maher. I highly recommend him.

I have known Steve Maher for 4 years. He represented my company in a very difficult Intellectual Property case in the Federal District Court - Orlando Division. Steve prepared vigorously for all eventualities. The Jury Trial lasted 6 weeks, he was excellent in Direct examination as well as Cross examination. Steve delivered a brilliant closing argument that resulted in a Jury Award of $25,000,000.00 Steve a is a very articulate, personable individual who makes every effort to understand the case and find brilliant answers. Steve has also represented my company in general corporate issues. I would recommend Steve in the strongest possible terms for anyone who wants a winning lawyer on their side on any legal issues. He is tireless when it comes to representing a client.

Steve Maher is compassionate and caring. He is a winner in every sense of the word. He is like a pit bull when fighting and will not give up or rest until justice is served. If given the choice, there is not another person I would want advocating for me or my family. Any defense tactics or attempts to not take responsibility for a wrong doing will be met with integrity and power probably not bargained for. Steve has the most incredible team and resources and ability. You can count on him to use the latest in technology and every tool available and every tactic to fight for you.

I have Mr. Boatright to thank for my freedom and my sanity through my case. I could not have had better legal representation, he went above and beyond literally from the very first time I spoke with him all the way to the very end and the outcome was so much better than I even thought was possible.

1) Out of the dozen or so I called, he was the ONLY one who spent time listening and breaking down the scenario before even discussing a fee. He actually cared. He wanted to fight this unjust scenario.
2) My case was civil, but he approached it like it was criminal, and knew all the appropriate avenues to take.
3) He put on a clinic. I left happy and won.
4) He answered all my texts and calls in appropriate time. I'm sure I wasn't the easiest client, but he never once made me feel bad for my concern over my case.
5) I hope to never have to hire him again but if I had to, I would without question. 100%
6) He may use me as an offline reference as well. Thank you so much!

This was the first time in my life I have ever found myself on the wrong side of the law. Throughout this process he was knowledgeable and aided me in navigating my way through the darkest period of my life. My case was complicated, muddled in falsities and obfuscation. Chris was able to untangle it all and put forth a comprehensive approach that anticipated everything. At the time I did not fully appreciate the amount of time, effort and patience he had. I also learned after being incarcerated how broken the legal/corrections systems in Orange County truly are. I hesitate to elaborate more, suffice it to say he exceeded expectations and could have quit on me several times throughout the process. Do you want someone who shoots straight (don’t BS this guy EVER, he is one of the most intelligent people I know). Also, remember you’re (if incarcerated in Orange), you’re at 33rd, he’s in Winter Park. He’s a warrior. Call him. If you’re being flooded with a flurry of mail from lawyers it’s difficult to know what to do. Call him.

All I can say are great things about Phil Kaprow. He has assisted me both personally and professionally. He is the type of attorney that doesn't take a case in my opinion unless he can sense that he will be successful at winning. I have heard him counsel people in this regard. He is fair in his pricing and well worth it anyway no matter what he charges.

I was referred to Irvin & Irvin to handle an auto repair case, and I cannot stress enough how professional Mr. Irvin was, besides being a top-notch attorney he was very sympathetic and understanding.

Jeff's assistance was invaluable as our non-profit sought to lease its first commercial property. We were quickly overwhelmed by the magnitude of the lease but Jeff reviewed the document and patiently walked us through the nuances while taking the time to explain each aspect and the impact upon our organization. He was thorough, responsive, patient and willing to go above and beyond normal actions. In short, Jeff exceeded all of our expectations in providing our organization with counsel and offering recommendations from a non-biased view which helped us realize this deal was not in our best interest. I would not hesitate to call Jeff again to gain his insight nor would I hesitate to recommend his services to others.

I found Michael through a friend and I couldn't be happier. My attorney before Michael always made me feel that I was bothering him; NOT Michael. Michael has since worked on several matters for me and he was very good in providing me with explanations as to the process and possible outcomes, both good and bad. He kept everything real. He kept me informed and he worked hard for me. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a bright and humble attorney who always made me feel that I was a long time friend and not just a client.

Attorney Shane Boutty entered into the middle of a very complicated situation (guardianship, competency, probate, trusts, limited partnerships, real estate, breach of fiduciary, appellate court) that involved multiple, intertwined cases. The cases were filed in several jurisdictions, thus making matters more complicated. A big part of the legal challenge Shane faced was the product of poor prior legal work. Unwinding the opposition's highly aggressive, and often unethical legal tactics was a monumental challenge. But, Shane's very,very competent, thorough, meticulous research, drafting, and oral arguments ultimately have turned around a seemingly un-winable case.
