Alan Soven receives a zero-star rating from me. He represented me in a false domestic violence accusation by my ex-wife. Despite having a strong case with witnesses and 911 tapes in my favor, Soven persuaded me to accept a plea deal for 1 year of probation with adjudication withheld, claiming it was the best option to avoid a potential 5-year sentence if found guilty at trial. However, Soven failed to inform me that my record couldn’t be expunged or sealed due to the nature of the charges in Florida. Had I received proper legal advice, I would have opted for a trial instead of accepting the plea deal. Soven’s incompetence has led me to caution against engaging him for any legal matters. He should stick to ambulance chasing cases.

Would rate Zero stars but that is not possible. So 1 Star =Zero stars.
Bad legal advise and Alan Soven does not have a grip on the law. Let me explain, he advised me to accept a plea bargain from the State prosecutor and advised me not to go to trial with a good defense with evidence that I was inocente. He wanted me to accept the plea bargain since it’s less work for him. He did this by instilling fear into me that I would loose the case and go to prison. He assured me that he would simply expunge my record afterward I complied with the conditions of the bargain. He was UNAWARE and uneducated of the the age old law in place, which I later found out, did not allow for me to be able to seal or expunge my record as I had erroneously been lead to believe by the so called attorney, Alan Soven. When I asked him what he was going to do for me, he told me that there was nothing for him to do. Of coarse there isn’t anything to do because he misrepresented to me the law. I would have NEVER accepted the plea bargain if I knew what Alan Soven led me to believe was true... but was not. NOT RECOMMENDED.

Undertaking corruption in a municipality is a daunting task. It was attorney Sovens total commitment and fierce determination that enabled a multimillion-dollar code enforcement scheme to be uncovered and terminated. Enlisting the FBI and going up against a prominent Florida Law Firm not only did Allen succeed but he sacrificed. Because of his aggressive prosecution of my case his office was burned in an arson fire in attempt to silence him and prevent further action on his part. Without his dedication millions of dollars worth of properties would have been seized and no one would be the wiser. My deepest thanks always go to his work and to his work ethic.

Those were the words that Alan Soven told me as the clerk was giving the verdict. Alan did a great job in our trial! He was professional, intelligent and very, very thorough. I was worried in the beginning, but he definitely always put me at ease when he spoke to the judge and the jury. Thank you Alan for being a great lawyer!!

Mr. Soven has represented me several times in 30 years. His passion is only exceeded by his knowledge and expertise in the courtroom. I have referred many friends and clients to Mr. Soven. All have informed me of his excellent professional work.

I hired Alan to help me with a potential litigation against an interior design firm. Alan was extremely well versed in designer law and thoroughly explained my options and the pros and cons of each. In the end Alan was able to avoid litigation and save me several hundred thousand off the total bill in the process. His fee for this was a small fraction of the savings. Alan did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for an attorney.

My case was handled by Mr. Soven with negligence, incompetence, ignorant or the law. He is narcissistic, greedy and is not in touch with reality. I suggested to the Florida Bar that he be mentally evaluated as he is NOT in touch with reality.

My living situation when I moved to Miami, involved a short sale and a handful of issues with the condo that were not being resolved. I'm very thankful to Scott Gershon for referring me to Alan Soven for representation. My case was handled quickly and I was able to get out of a awful living situation. He gets my highest recommendation!
