There is much to be said about the type of lawyer you hire and the one your spouse hires. The original attorney my wife had was terrible and what should have been a fairly quick process turned into a long drawn out fiasco. Then she hired Nancy Brodzki. After this happened things went very smoothly. Nancy worked with my attorney and everything was settled in a short amount of time. Not all lawyers are for resolution that is good for everyone, some are just out to collect. I thought Nancy, along with my attorney just looked at us as people and wanted to work out things that would make everyone rest a little easier. I would recommend her to anyone, that is of course if my attorney wasn't available. :-)

The Brodzki Jacobs team was FANTASTIC! It is not just Nancy. They were very efficient, well organized and professional. They were patient and sympathetic to my needs as I processed my personal situation yet Nancy was never shy about being direct with me when I needed it by always helping me do what was best for the kids. I was always the weakest link in the chain (something I am not used to). They were highly recommended to me by two separate industry professionals I know as "the best but not the cheapest". I am glad I trusted the recommendations and let the Brodzki Jacobs team guide me through the difficult process. Ultimately, they did not waste my time/money. The process was swift and the overall cost at the end was well within normal expectations. Big thanks to Nancy, Tayane, Roberta, Misha and the rest of the team. I do not plan the get married and divorced again but if I do, I know who to call.

Sadly, I must say that Nancy was to represent me in a divorce and I had much more anxiety dealing with her and her office than my ex husband. I found her to be extremely unresponsive. Emails ignored and phone calls not returned. I paid a $7500 retainer not realizing that there is a clause stating that the balance would not be returned if unused. It was so difficult to deal with the Brodzki Jacobs office that I fired them and plan to finish the divorce proceedings myself. Just too difficult to deal with her office. It was taking forever due to Nancy's many vacation days, out of office commitments and excuses for being unavailable. And was VERY annoyed that they would not return my unused balance on account. It's legal for them to have a no refund clause but certainly not nice or widely done that way. Would steer clear of this firm.

Critical: Professionalism, Responsiveness, Value My wife and I recently separated and divorced what is of the upmost importance to us was and always has been keeping it cordial keeping it respectable and doing the right thing for the children Nancy Brodzki was not my attorney she was the attorney of my wife. we settled very amicably but there are a few things you need to be aware of with Nancy. Nancy’s retainers are nonrefundable in other words if you give her a retainer of $7500 and she does $4000 of billable work she will not give you back the money that was not utilized for services that is something in my opinion that is unethical even if it is legal. We initially wanted to do a collaborative divorce which is a specific methodology that Nanci is certified in however since my wife and I agreed that this would be civil and fair we decided not to do and go forward with the collaborative process. Our kids are older and we didn’t see the need to do a collaborative divorce instead we made it very clear that we would do the right thing by each other we did this from the beginning and communicated this to Nanci in my humble opinion it was at this point that Nanci should have said I don’t think we’ll need the $7500 as a retainer but that never happened instead Nancy kept the money she refused to refund the retainer that was not used for the services she didn’t perform instead she offered to provide additional services in a future divorce hearing that seems a little ridiculous to me. But worst of all we should’ve known better and Andrea under a difficult time did sign the agreement and was aware that the retainer was not refundable sometimes in moments of stress we don’t pay so much attention to every detail and that is on us. My main objective in writing this review is to make you aware that Nanci does non-refundable retainers you should know that before you sign any agreement ask her about it and she’ll tell you but also ask her what happens when you don’t utilize all of the retainer who keeps the money. I want to make this clear that I am the ex-husband of Nanci‘s client who is my ex wife. One final thing look for a review shortly from my ex-wife that speaks to other issues re Nancy that lack professionalism, communication, follow up and total disregard for the client that has nothing to do with the retainer policy mentioned. Note, pardon spelling and grammar as I used dictation ap.

I was referred to Nancy Brodzki because she is a top attorney in her field and she would give me the best advice. After our meeting it was apparent that I was already financially strapped and I would not be able to afford her services past our initial meeting. Nancy was kind enough to help me navigate the legalese and bureaucracy of our legal system for one very reasonable flat fee! Although there was a lot of work on my part regarding how things worked and navigating Legal Aid, she was there to set my mind at ease, guide me and assure me I was on the right path. I highly recommend Nancy not only because of the many titles she holds, but because of her compassion in dealing with matters that are extremely raw and personal!

Nancy is the best attorney there is and she knows what it takes to win. She is very determine and has the best interest of her clients at heart. She is a little pit bull in the court room and gets across her message to the judge in a concise manner. Trust me she is the real deal. Thanks again Nancy for all your help.

Anyone who is having challenges post-divorce as it relates to custody and parenting plan agreements should reach out to Ms. Nancy Brodzki and her team. In December of 2015, three months post-divorce I contacted Nancy related to challenges with my ex-spouse who was threatening to leave the state of Florida. Nancy was and remains very responsive to my questions and concerns. And, yes, most think well that is what an attorney should do for their client. I agree but, I went to three other attorneys and it just was not a good fit. Nancy makes herself relatable while ensuring she is doing the very best for her client. She is honest and to the point. I am not a confrontational person and prefer to come to an agreement by mediation. However, that was not an option with my ex-spouse. Nancy allowed me to proceed with trying mediation but, once she recognized that my ex-spouse was not going to mediate she politely said, “You really need to move forward with more aggressive action.” So through her guidance, supportive staff, ability to navigate through the challenging PBC Court System, nearly one year later, I finally got my children back and have 100% sole custody. Bottom Line Up Front, Nancy is relentless and willing to go the extra mile for her clients. She is professional and active in the gay community which is a plus for me since I am a gay woman. At this point, you may be asking yourself, so who cares. Well, it is quite simple, there is the letter of the law and then there is the color of the law. Nancy can navigate through the letter and the color of the law. She is devoted to her clients and she truly cares. The legal system is difficult to navigate through and family court adds another challenging layer because there are emotions involved and it can pull at the heart strings. Nancy provides direction and comfort in the most painful situations. At one point, we were about 9 months in and I was feeling powerless. Nancy quickly provided support and a gutsy, “We got this! We will keep fighting!” Trust me, when you can’t see your children and are denied access, it helps to know that someone is fighting for you! Ideally, we all want to believe that we can come to a mutual agreement with an ex-spouse for the well-being of the children. But, sometimes, that is not the case and you need to get an Attorney. Enlist Nancy for your legal needs as it relates to Family Law and Child Custody. She understands, is relatable and knows first-hand the challenges that come with the stigmas of society and the gay community.

In a tough situation, like a divorce, it is good to have someone you can trust. Nancy is very good at what she does. She is honest & has her client's best interests in mind. Her office staff are amazing & very friendly. Nancy & her office helped me immensely with my divorce & custody issues.. from out of state. She made everything easy to understand & took tome to answer questions. She set realistic expectations & delivered quality results. I would highly recommend Ms. Brodzki & her office.

I consider Nancy part of our family because she made our family's dream come true. My wife and I were able to adopt our baby without any issues. Nancy is knowledgeable and honest. She made us feel comfortable and assured that everything was going to be ok.

Nancy Brodzki came highly recommended and now we know why. We hired Nancy for a very complicated dependency case, after consulting with numerous attorneys Nancy, took the case with confidence. Nancy along with her staff were able to filter through many obstacles/statues and we walked out of the courtroom with smiles. Nancy is very compassionate about her field of work and she puts great effort into her work. She was very open and honest, which gave us great comfort. Nancy and her staff were very thorough with working on our case, returning calls, as well as keeping us informed with any motions filed for us or against us. We would highly recommend Nancy for any family law issues you may have, no matter how big or small. Once again THANK YOU NANCY.....GREAT JOB!!!!

Nancy Brodzki is far and away the best lawyer you could ever hire for a divorce. She won my case at trial, and spent the next 5 years chasing my ex for the money he refused to pay. She never gave up, and eventually got me all the money he owed me, including over $125,000 in legal fees! She and her staff were there for me during what was the worst time of my life, and I really felt like I was always treated as if I was special, even though I know all her clients probably feel that way. She is so passionate about her work, and she stood up to some of the most aggressive lawyers in Palm Beach County for me. Nancy is a real pit bull when she needs to be, and she needed to be that for me. I will forever be grateful for what she did for me and my son.

Nancy was excellent in helping me resolve a very ugly divorce. She was patient, attentive and responsive to all of my concerns. In short, she is everything one could possibly need in a marital attorney. When she states that she treats you like family she means what she says. She has my highest recommendation!
