Ingrid Hooglander is highly unprofessional. She was my opposing counsel representing my ex husband. I was advised to file a grievance against Ingrid Hooglander for violating HIPPA at court but decided not to. She is also allegedly a certified parent coordinator but I would not recommend her for those services either as it seems she enjoys causing more conflict between the parties instead of bringing the parties to a resolution to benefit herself and her pocketbook. I would recommend Barnett Gill for law services instead. Tom Gill will talk with you and give you good legal advice. He is a father and a grandfather so he understands family law. His partner Jana Barnett is highly qualified as well she is almost like his daughter in law. The attorneys at Barnett Gill will give you legal advice that is in the best interest of YOUR CHILDREN. Which is what all parents want. Ingrid Hooglander does NOT do this. She doesn't care about attachment issues of your children or anything just about her pocket book. At court Ingrid Hooglander even admitted to driving while having a scheduled meeting with her opposing counsel, my attorney. She should have been sitting in an office meeting with the opposing counsel instead of driving while conducting a meeting. Knowing my ex husband paid for her to do a half ass job isn't even comforting to me as surprising as that may sound. Just posting a review for any prospective clients as I would not recommend her even to my enemy.

This attorney will over bill and delay your case. Her general manger is her husband. She will have her husband perform work on a case such as appraise you house and/or perform comps for your home. All billed separately without the client knowing it is her husband doing the work. She will wait till the last minute to prepare for a hearing if at all. She hires her friends to do fiduciary duties for fees without informing the client of possible conflicts. Ingrid will use up retainers just during the internal case handling. When she moved she had to file paper work for each case and billed the clients for each filing even though it was her that caused the notices to be filed the client had to pay for the notice that were filed even though there forms were all the same expect for the case heading. All were billed the same amount. I would say 75% of the good reviews that are posted are from friends and employees that she either asked (friends) or told to post (employees) good reviews. Before hiring this attorney read all reviews. Do a little reasearch on the names. Some are from clients, probably the easy and quick cases. The complicated cases are the one Ingrid will stumble and drag-out for all she can. Just speak with her and you will see she really does not complete her thoughts and expects you to. Ingrid does this on purpose just so she can say you said that not her. Do you research or you will have no one to blame but yourself. I have personal knowledge of the inter-workings of this office.

It has truly been a pleasure working with Brandon Legal Group. Ingrid and Luke are a dynamic team. Also all the staff is so supportive and kind. I had a very challenging case and they were on top of everything. I always felt treated with care and respect. I truly felt supported there. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for excellent representation while treated as family by this firm. Can't thank them enough.

I strongly advise caution when considering Brandon Legal Group for your legal needs. It has come to my attention that this firm has a disturbing practice of suing their own customers. A quick search on the Hillsborough County Clerk of Courts website reveals that Brandon Legal Group has filed lawsuits against more than 40 of their own clients. This behavior is highly unprofessional and raises serious ethical concerns. Legal firms are supposed to protect and advocate for their clients, not drag them into additional legal battles. I would recommend looking for a more trustworthy and client-focused law firm. Avoid the headache and potential legal issues by steering clear of Brandon Legal Group.

Having an unplanned divorce can be very hard. Luke and Ingrid did an exceptional job getting me through the process. Even after numerous unexpected issues happened during the process, their combined knowledge and experiences got us through it. My children and I are very grateful to have had them represent us. Their service for our family is simply priceless. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a family law attorney.

I have used Brandon Legal Group for years now, they are awesome to work with! Very professional and knowledgeable and even if they are unable to help you with your specific case they are very quick to give you a referral to someone else. I recommend them to everyone who needs family law representation.
