I have known the attorneys for 18 years (since 2002) and I can tell you that they have only become more of what they already were: honest, compassionate, competent, and hard-working. I have been referring my Central-Florida clients to them for the entirety of my career and will continue to do so. Going through a divorce is already a difficult process for anyone, the fact that they care about their clients' personal well being makes the divorce easier to accept and handle. They do excellent work and have sacrificed many late nights away from their own family to best serve their clients. I can't recommend them highly enough.

If you are reading this review due to a child custody matter, Look no further !! Ophelia is an Excellent Family Law Attorney and has put together an excellent "family team". In my experience most lawyers can talk the talk and that is all. What separate's Ophelia is she can talk the talk but also walks the walk. Ophelia's knowledge of the laws & statutes is impressive. Ophelia is very, very organized and prepared. On a scale of 1 to 10 being the best,she is probably a 15 :) Ophelia, considering the circumstances, it has been a pleasure meeting and working with you. I would like to thank your staff (Camila) and all others behind the scenes who were involved in my matter. Thank you, Dan

We worked predominantly with Mr. Nickolaou, but also briefly with Ms. Bernal-Mora during a child custody case. The case was long, and had several complications. Throughout the entire process, Mr. Nickolaou was compassionate and thorough in explaining our options and giving honest advice on how best to proceed. The value of the services provided were more than fairly priced, and we ended up with a much more positive outcome than we could have imagined at one point, thanks to their work. We would never hesitate to utilize or recommend their services.

Did not provide documents, opposing party's counsel had to notify me of something my lawyer should have. Extremely unprofessional!

This was my second experience with a family law attorney for my custody case. I was represented my Ophelia Bernal-Mora. Unlike the first time I had an attorney, I walked away from the case feeling like I was represented by someone who clearly was representing my interests, knew what she was doing, and moreover, cared! She is extremely knowledgeable (heck she is board certified and worth every penny!) and when there is another modification or contempt issue filed in my case, she will be the attorney I go to without hesitation. She is very up to date on case law and the laws and I think knew more than the judge we had did. She does not overbill or nickel and dime on her billing like I experienced with my first attorney. It can get expensive, but I think you get what you pay for and for a board certified family law attorney which there are not many from what I could find, her prices are pretty reasonable. Her firm also no charged many many items throughout my case to my surprise and satisfaction. She is clearly not in it just for the money and wants to help people. I cannot thank her enough! Save yourself the trouble and don't let your ex hire her first! You will not be disappointed! She is very professional and does not get bullied by other attorneys.

I worked with Ophelia for my divorce. She did exactly as I asked and had great insights and advice when I requested. So responsive that I felt like I was her only client! I recently needed her again for advice 5 years later and she picked right up where we left off with same great service and responsiveness. No long, drawn out consultations to run up the meter, just great advice and execution! Don’t bother with anyone else.

There are not enough words to describe the work Andrew did for me! I WILL ETERNALLY BE GRATEFUL for the precise and over the top work him and his team performed. Andrew was the third (3rd) lawyer in my case, which was extended for years due to incompetent lawyers on both ends (my ex-wife and mine). Andrew handled in one week what others couldn't do in years, it was amazing! . Just the first day he responded and scheduled everything in no time. He made the process so easy to understand and follow up, his intentions are for the divorce ends in the best way possible and make the children involved get the best as it should be. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANDREW! His work ethics and dedication are second to none.

After hiring another attorney, wasting a year, and spending $6000, I got nowhere in my custody battle. Thanks to the referral of a friend I hired Andrew/Ophelia Bernal-Mora. She attended the trial with her husband. They are a dynamic team. The opposing party was trying to get out of paying the proper support. Mrs. Bernal-Mora made sure my son was given the correct amount of support. I am forever grateful for her and her husband. They truly are amazing and definitely angels from above. If you hire them they will exceed your expectations. I promise!!!!

Bernal-Mora & Nickolaou , This is an upstanding Law Firm. I've had the pleasure of working with Both Andrew, & Ophelia. During my recent family divorce, and child custody case, they worked as a team. (This is one professional team my Friend!) If you are looking for a Lawyer, and your reading my review, Please stop! You have found the legal team that will take your case, and make it personal...! I personally felt Ophelia, & Andrew both took my family's case and made it their case. I can truly testify that from the initial consultation, and all the way through my trial, they both were very passionate in the way the handled my family's Divorce. There were never any delays on our side in filing the paperwork with the courts system on my behalf. Ophelia, & Andrew both had several conversations with me during the divorce process, and always gave me the best legal advise At no point did I feel left out, or uninformed, on anything that was happening in my situation. (To me this was how an attorney should treat their client ) My case was unique, There was a child involved, and to make it worse, I was out of State. I had previously hired another local attorney that just charged me money, and did absolutely nothing after I had retained him. This was devastating! I'm not made of money, and that was almost everything I had. Me being out of state, and the First lawyer not taking my calls was terrifying to say least. There is paperwork that needs to be filed with the courts in a timely manner, and it was not getting taken care of.. I called 23 lawyers the day I finally found Bernal-Mora & Nickolaou. believe it or not, I reached Andrew after hours, and he answered the phone. That impressed me. He took the time to listen, answered my concerns the best way possible, and set a time for us to meet. That first consultation we had, that day changed my life, I finally found the right firm to take my case, and felt comfort in choosing them to do so. The professionalism, out standing! They honestly do make your case personal, and to tell the truth, Florida should rename Ophelia the terminator. Because my friend when she is against you, you will know it. Not that Andrew isn't just as strong, because he is. they went through my trial flawlessly, and the knowledge they bring to the table, (Priceless). I hope you read my review all the way through. I also hope you know it came from the heart. If you need an attorney, take my advise an set a consultation, you wont regret it! If you don't take my advise, pray this team is not the opposing Counsel, because my friend, your in trouble. Bernal-Mora & Nickolaou, They are truly part my family now. I want to thank you Andrew & Ophelia for being the most professional lawyers I know, for being truthful, and have upstanding integrity! Never loose that, Florida needs you! God Bless You

EXCELLENT FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY'S!!! If you are looking for experienced attorney's to represent you in your divorce, and or child custody case look no further. I had the pleasure of retaining Andrew Nickolaou and his wife Ophelia Bernal-Mora to represent me in my divorce and child custody case. I am so grateful that I found them. They fought for me and the best interest of my family. Andrew and his wife Ophelia work excellent together. They were prepared and ready to fight for what was right during trial. I wouldn't want anyone else on my side to represent me and my family but Bernal-Mora and Nickolaou. Huge thanks to you and your team for being there every step of the way and treating us like family.

Ophelia Bernal-Mora is an upstanding family law attorney. I have nothing but great things to say about her and the way she handled my case during trial. If you are looking for an attorney who is going to fight for you and the best interest of your family this is who you want on your side. Thank you Ophelia for fighting for me and the best interest of my son and treating us like family!
