I researched many attorney profiles, backgrounds. But, there was only 1 whose sincerity was palpable. That was Joshua S. Danz. He listened to Me patiently for 45 minutes. His representation was so successful for me and my grandson. Everything I hoped for Joshua achieved. He reached out to me on a regular basis. He genuinely cares. Joshua is the consummate professional, profound understanding of the law. But ultimately a fine person. Picking Joshua as my attorney is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Hired Joshua for my GF’s case, and he was excellent. He was responsive to emails, attentive to every detail, and genuinely empathetic to the situation.
Hopefully, we’ll never need a lawyer again, but it’s reassuring to know we’ve got a damn good one we can count on!

Jennifer Waterway guided me through the entire process with compassion and professionalism in this difficult, confusing and complicated time.
She was always right on point and explained the pros and cons of my particular case.
She helped me tremendously through the entire process and listened attentively to my needs.
She was always quick to answer my calls and kept me informed at all times.
Jennifer was an excellent advocate during this stressful emotional roller coaster called a Divorce.
She has great communication skills, strong ability and willingness to listen in difficult times.
I also want to recognize her assistant Maribel and all her office staff for making me feel at ease.
Too many people fail to put in the time and effort to fully understand and comprehend what the client need or say.
Jennifer had to clean the mess I was left with by prior representation and got me to mediation within few month and finalized the divorce in timely manner.
I couldn’t have done without Jennifer and glad I found her.
I highly recommend Jennifer for her hard work ethic and perseverance, knowledges, responsiveness and great communication skills.

When divorce hits you unexpectedly you find yourself scrambling to sort out your life. Finances, where to live, how to cope emotionally, and then there are the legal aspects to deal with. You need someone you can trust to help you navigate the process.
That is what Jennifer Waterway did for me. She guided and educated me about the law and my rights. I always felt that she advocated for me especially through the process of dividing a marriage financially. She listened and helped me learn to think about divorce in terms of the legal aspects (when I was overwhelmed by emotions!). She helped me come to a reasonable result. I highly recommend her services. Thank you, Jennifer.

I can tell you for sure that my case was about as intensely complicated as it was an international divorce with a young child involved. Mark and his team burned the midnight oil to do all of the research and find absolute facts....and nothing but facts and case precendent. If you don't hire him you are missing out on the best attorney in Florida. I am blown away by him.

Karen and her team/staff are the best of the best. From the initial consult to the final judgement/agreement they are 100% committed. She’s empathetic and compassionate when I was expressing concerns and/or fears of what could happen during the process. Extremely quick response to emails, texts or phone calls. I would highly recommend Karen and her team (Michael, Samantha, Sylvia) and once you talk to them you will understand why. I can’t say thank you enough - they are the BEST in the Biz.

“When you choose an attorney, you’re gambling your best possible future on a total stranger and that can be a scary thing. The moment you talk with Michael Parisi, you’re going to feel comfort and know you chose the right person. He’s polite and compassionate where you’ll feel like you have a guardian who sees you as a real person with a real life to defend, and not just a case number. More importantly, he’s extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and he’s capable of creating incredibly positive outcomes from situations that seem like they’re hopeless. I assure you you’ll never trust any attorney more than Mr. Parisi after you take the initial leap of faith in choosing him.”

I found myself in a nightmare situation when an accidental 911 call led to the police showing up at my house and mistakenly assuming a domestic violence incident had occurred. Since my kids were in the home, DCFS got involved, and soon after, both my children's mothers filed emergency motions. In the blink of an eye, I lost custody of all three of my kids.
I was devastated and knew I needed someone who was not just diligent but obsessed with getting results. That’s where Michael came in. From the start, he was not only compassionate and informative but also incredibly strategic. The way he approached my case was exceptionally well-planned.
Both mothers argued that the police reports weren't available yet and that the DCF report wasn’t fully completed, which could have dragged the situation out for 60 days. However, Michael worked his magic to overcome these obstacles. What could have been a two-hour hearing set 45 days later, Michael was able to accomplish in just 15 minutes. On that very same day, despite an uphill battle against a heavily litigious ex, he proved that the facts and law were on my side. Thanks to his efforts, I got all three of my kids back without the need for protracted litigation.
If you’re looking for a lawyer who will fight tooth and nail for you, Michael is the one.

Additionally, I appreciated his commitment to finding cost-effective solutions. Michael was transparent about fees and worked hard to keep costs manageable without compromising the quality of representation.

I cannot say enough about my experience with this exceptional Family Law Attorney. From start to finish, she was consistently attentive and made me feel truly heard, something that can be rare in such a complex and emotional process. She was always a step ahead, ensuring that the Judge was well aware of every detail in my case. Her dedication to the facts and her meticulous approach were apparent every step of the way.
What sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares. She takes the time to understand every aspect of your situation, and her empathy is matched only by her professionalism and ethical standards. While she is incredibly supportive, she also offers a grounded perspective, making sure you understand your real options and where adjustments might need to be made. Her guidance is honest, and she provides realistic advice tailored to your financial circumstances, ensuring you are fully aware of what’s practical and achievable.
Her proactive approach, combined with her transparency and integrity, makes her an outstanding advocate. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a Family Law Attorney who truly cares about their clients and is committed to achieving the best possible outcome.

I couldn’t be more grateful for the outstanding service I received from Natalie Lopez. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but her dedication and attention to detail made all the difference. As a close friend from high school, I’ve always known Natalie to be hardworking and genuine, and she truly brought those qualities into this case. Highly recommend! If it wasn't because of her great skills, I'd still be in jail awaiting some serious consequences. Thank you for your hard work Natalie! 🤗🙏🏾 You're a blessing!

Although that I am a relatively new client , I think that Gus is brilliant , beyond caring and empathetic towards his clients needs. On the other side It’s clear to that tell he’s sharper than a razor & his assistant Alexis is equally caring . Thus even though that I have only been with him a shortperiod of time I have so much gratitude for his support so far and continue to do so each day.

Robert Kelly is a people’s lawyer. With over 30 years of experience, he is the best kept secret in Hollywood because at a fraction of the price of hiring a fancy law firm you can have somebody with the ethics and fighting skills of Muhammad Ali on your side. He is one of the most persuasive advocates I have ever seen in court. If I could give a six star review to a lawyer, it would be to Rob Kelly. If you want to win a case in state or federal Court in Broward County, Florida, especially against a big corporation, insurance company, or bank, this is who you should hire.

I only wish I knew Mr Kelly months before I did. I was dealing with a horrible apartment situation and finally had to hire a lawyer after months of black mold and multiple other issues that the Manor in Flagler Village never fixed. Things completely changed when Mr Kelly got hired. I can honestly say he’s the best for the job. 11/10 and wouldn’t have anyone else on my case. Steve is always helpful and giving updates every step of the way and I’m 100% satisfied with the services I received.

My family and I needed a probate attorney. We needed to settle my mother’s estate after she passed away. I looked for a probate attorney and they never got back with me after leaving several messages and I had to keep calling. When I did received a call back they did not explain the process just told me what their fee was and I had to pay it upfront. Needless to say I seek help from someone else. I called Mr. Lorenzo on a Saturday afternoon and he answered and explained the process of what to be expected. He sounded very knowledgeable and also caring. I felt so relieved after speaking to him and I knew I had found the right attorney. Mr. Lorenzo was there for my family and I through a difficult time and case. Mr. Lorenzo showed us empathy and trust which are two important factors to me.Through out the process he kept us informed of every detailed of the case. I’m so glad we did not stay with the other attorney. We made the right choice. I would highly recommend Mr. Lorenzo to others who are looking for a caring and trustworthy attorney who is knowledgeable of the law. Thank you Mr. Lorenzo. My family and I are very grateful to you.

I would like to take this time and share the details of my unfortunate divorce. I’m a PALM BEACH resident that went through the unfortunate experience of separating from my wife of 17 years. My first response was to go to high price attorneys in Palm Beach. After experiencing two consultations Which cost me $2000 for two hours worth of their time with two different firms they put the fear of God in me. Completely rattled I took a step back and went online and found Mayersohn LAW GROUP. Within the hour, Leah Mayersohn ESQ had returned my call, listened to my story was completely positive and uplifting from the very beginning. Leah assured me that the team she would assemble for me will do everything they can to get me through this process as painlessly with minimal amount of cost and take me through this process from the moment I signed up to the day the divorce was finalized. My lead divorce attorney, DENISE GENTILE Was not only thorough in her work, everything from paperwork to returning phone calls to telling me the breath deeply when I became overwhelmed at times more often than not the compassion was real and undeniable the team consisted of Deborah Gordash, Who was my paralegal. JOHN who uploaded thousands of documents for me Lulu who schedule appointments and took care of our Zoom calls, conference calls , to much to mention. The bottom line is, I can’t say enough about the firm. They were supportive, understanding, compassionate, and finalize my divorce within months. In this day and age it’s rare to fine a company as professional as the Mayersohn Law Group where profits aren’t the bottom line.

If you have an amicable divorce go to a mediator or give a small retainer fee. This office has a NON-refundable refund for retainers. My case was during the holidays and after we signed everything the office went silent. I had to email to check status and then they would move the case. I wasn't even informed on when my divorce was finalized, I found it on public records. Although I am knowledgeable and know it was my mistake for not reading the terms, I hope this helps someone to ask about refundable retainer fees. My divorce billable hours were about 2,500. My retainer fee was 5,500 so the office made an easy $2,900.00. Hope this review helps someone in the future!

Sandra's service was exemplary. She always kept me informed of the progress of my case so that I was aware and comforted during all of the waiting time.

Before hiring Sandra as my lawyer, I was deeply distressed by the divorce process. My ex served me without warning and tried to get a default judgment. I quickly hired a lawyer and was incredibly lucky to find Sandra. From our initial call, I knew she was the right choice. Her constant communication and the confidence she instilled in me were invaluable. A HUGE thanks to Lisette too for being so supportive and helpful throughout. While divorce is never easy, having a team that genuinely cares about you and your future makes it much more bearable. My only regret is not hiring them sooner- They are truly exceptional!

What a Child Custody Lawyer Can Do for You
A child custody lawyer specializes in helping parents navigate legal matters related to the custody and care of their children, particularly in the context of divorce, separation, or other family disputes. These lawyers assist with determining custody arrangements, drafting parenting plans, and advocating for your rights in court. They also help resolve disputes over physical custody (where the child lives), legal custody (who makes decisions for the child), visitation rights, and modifications to existing custody orders.
Whether you're going through a divorce or need to change an existing custody arrangement, a child custody lawyer can help you understand your rights and protect your child's best interests throughout the legal process.
When Should I Hire a Child Custody Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a child custody lawyer in several situations, especially when disputes arise or complex legal issues affect your parental rights. Some common reasons to hire a child custody lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: If you're going through a divorce or separation and need to establish custody and visitation arrangements, a lawyer can help ensure the custody order reflects your child's best interests.
- Disputed custody cases: If you and the other parent cannot agree on custody or visitation terms, a lawyer can advocate for your rights in court and help you develop a strong case.
- Modification of custody orders: If you need to change an existing custody arrangement due to changes in circumstances (e.g., relocation, changes in the child’s needs), a lawyer can help file a modification request.
- Parental alienation: If the other parent is interfering with your relationship with your child, a lawyer can help address these issues through legal action.
- Domestic violence or abuse: If there is a history of domestic violence or abuse, a lawyer can help protect you and your child by requesting restraining orders and advocating for appropriate custody arrangements.
- Grandparent or third-party custody: If you are a grandparent or another relative seeking custody or visitation rights, a lawyer can guide you through the legal process.
- Paternity disputes: In cases where paternity is in question, a lawyer can assist with establishing or challenging paternity, which may affect custody and visitation rights.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help protect your parental rights and ensure that the custody arrangement is in your child's best interests.

Top Questions to Ask a Child Custody Lawyer
Before hiring a child custody lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Some key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with child custody cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, especially if your case involves complex issues like domestic violence, relocation, or paternity disputes. -
How do you charge for your services?

What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case, including potential challenges and expected outcomes. -

Inquire about the expected timeline from filing the petition to reaching an agreement or going to trial. -

Ask whether the lawyer recommends mediation or other forms of dispute resolution to avoid a lengthy court battle.
How to Check the Credibility of a Child Custody Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable child custody lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and child custody cases.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge the lawyer’s professionalism and success in child custody matters.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on custody cases.
- Check for certifications: Look for lawyers who are board-certified in family law or have memberships in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML) or local family law sections.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a child custody lawyer, come prepared with relevant documents and information:
- Court orders or existing custody agreements: Bring copies of any existing custody or visitation orders for the lawyer to review.
- Communication with the other parent: Provide copies of emails, texts, or letters regarding custody, visitation, or disputes.
- List of your child’s needs: Prepare a list of your child’s specific needs, such as medical care, education, and extracurricular activities.
- Timeline of the case: Outline key events related to your custody case, including changes in living situations or parental involvement.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the custody process, legal fees, and the lawyer’s strategy for your case.
By being well-prepared, you can help the lawyer assess your situation effectively and receive the best possible advice for protecting your rights and your child’s well-being.
