I wanted to thank the firm for the work they have done for me as I was very pleased with the attention and service that I have received especially from my assigned attorney Jacob Barrett and paralegal Veronica Oquendo. Jacob was committed to getting the best possible outcome for me and succeeded in doing so. I would definitely recommend this firm not only for the services that they offer but also their staff. Thank you all again.

I’d personally like to thank attorney Jacob Barrett at family first legal team. He was always there to answer any questions that we may have in regards to our case seven days a week with an exceptional friendly manner..I would highly recommend Mr Jacob and the legal team at family first……

The team of Peterson, DeSalvo and Singleton were professional and competent. They handled my case with civility and integrity.

I’d personally like to thank John Gillheart and Jenna Ritter at family first legal team… they were always there to answer any questions that we may have had in regards to our case. I would recommend them to anybody that is going through family issues. Thank you again The Simmons Family

Family first legal group is absolutely amazing! The way they make you feel at ease and the confidence they show is the best when going thru hard times. My Fiancé has had the pleasure to go through this with the best team around. Thank you so much Toni, Jenna, Lindsay and your entire team for all your help!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, all the way from Canada 🇨🇦

To say that they are an outstanding team, helpful, and professional, is an understatement. I cannot thank everyone enough for all the help and support that was put into my case especially that of Megan Sanford and Jenna Ritter. When you choose a firm like Family First, you don’t just get the help of one individual, you get the help of the entire family!!! 100 out of 10 recommend! Don’t think twice just call them! The owner, Alex Peterson, has done an excellent job at constructing a wonderful and welcoming firm!

I received an email notification re your response to my recent review. Sadly, I was denied that pleasure as my original post has mysteriously vanished. Just like my money and apparently my client file too. You proved my point better than I ever could, thank you Alex!! Please find my honest assessment again below and also your response. I stand corrected, it’s not the paralegals cranking out all these five star reviews, it is the owner himself. “Horrible. Don’t be fooled.. paralegals here spend more time writing positive reviews online than on your case. Six months.. $20k later. Still married. Still miserable.. but now I’m also broke.” “Response from the owner: Mr. Gillam and to all who may be reading, Not only do we not have any record of a client by this name, if ANYONE cares to they can search publicly online for the Lee County AND Collier County online...” HA, I’ll take a rain check on the internet records searching, but thanks for the laugh!!

I recently found myself in a very stressful position regarding child custody post initial divorce agreement that required the assistance of an attorney. I spoke initially with Alex Peterson, the owner of Family First who helped guide me to Terry DeSalvo and Lisa Lisa Singleton. Alex’s wife Katie was also there to provide support, encouragement and answer any questions I may have. Terry and Lisa were very responsive, filed what they needed to as fast as they could, always answered my long list of questions promptly, and helped to guide me through the legal process that once seemed impossible and daunting although necessary to my sons safety. They had warned me that the process could be long, but we were able to reach a resolution that was in the best interest of my son in 5 months time. I felt confident and safe with their guidance and knowledge and would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone looking for help with a similar issue.

Thanks to everyone for making our family complete. Special thanks to Jenna Ritter for all the help and support we needed. Great team and firm.
