When I needed an attorney to guide me through the Florida divorce process, I met with Terry De Salvo who immediately put me at ease with his professional and confident approach. His level of experience and flexibility as my case evolved was such an important factor for my peace of mind. Paralegal Lisa Singleton was an absolute godsend for communication, organization, and for explaining clearly my options and next steps all through the process. I found their services to be affordable and they clearly documented and kept me informed about time spent and costs. When my divorce morphed from a contested situation to an amicable, uncontested case, Terry made sure I knew the possible impact of every decision I made, while maintaining his encouraging and supportive approach toward the unique aspects of my specific situation. He worked with opposing counsel in a professional and respectful manner which I appreciated. Later in the process, He and Lisa made it possible for me to move out of state with complete confidence that my divorce would continue to move forward in a timely manner. I highly recommend Attorney Terry De Salvo and the Family First Legal team. They were frank in their advice and compassionate in their understanding. From the moment I walked through the door to the processing of the final paperwork, I was treated with kindness, confidentiality, respect, and professionalism. Again, they have earned my trust and respect, and I highly recommend them.

My son needed a lawyer to get his rights and custody of his son. I contacted Family First on a Monday morning and paperwork in our hand the next day. John Gilhart worked with us for over two years and my son did get full custody. John and Jenna Ritter always answered all our questions and kept us updated on the case from day one. They became more like friends to us than a just a lawyer. I would highly recommend Family First Legal group. They went above and beyond what I was expecting. The office staff was very helpful and friendly. Thank You John and Jenna for everything.

Very kind and informative phone call. No issues. Thank you.

Attorney MEGAN A. SANFORD and Paralegal KELSEY CROMIE are the best, thank you.

Family First Legal Group assisted us during a difficult time for our family. Terry delivered an excellent outcome and much to our surprise (due to high conflict between the parties) was able to settle the divorce at mediation avoiding an otherwise long and emotionally exhaustive trial process. The entire staff was available and responsive. Lisa - their senior paralegal was always kind and compassionate. I recommend this firm to anyone that is going through a divorce.

Great experience! Every question I had always had a quick response even if it was just "I'm working on it". I always felt like someone was there to listen to my concerns. Great from start to finish! Attorney Jacob Barrett and paralegal Michelle Wilson were top notch! Such a great team!

From start to finish Megan and Angela made me feel like I was in good hands. They were very consistent and detailed and honest. If I ever need legal advice I am happy to call Megan. Thank you family first legal group!

I came to Alex Peterson with an extremely stressful situation. I was the potential defendant in a case. Alex was more than amazing. After calming me down, we went through the law regarding my case. Alex and Kelsey were always on point and very responsive to my questions. Through Alex's work, not only did the plaintiff's case completely evaporate, but the plaintiff actually became the defendant. I would recommend them to anyone needing these kind of legal services.

Jason is hands down the best! He helped me attain the best possible outcome of the worst experience with his prompt and thorough communication/ explanation, follow up and very caring nature. He is a true asset to the family first legal group team, and I would recommend him to literally everyone and anyone in need of his services! I couldn’t have been more pleased with my outcome or in my dealings with him! Jenna was very responsive and very proficient with all the tasks that needed to be completed and had great communication and follow up. Gill is an amazing first contact to have at the firm. We had a phone consultation, and she was very patient and informative, gave me a feeling of reassurance and made me feel that the firm would have my best interest in mind. She was one of the reasons I chose the firm over others I had spoken with. My ex had chosen one of the attorneys that I had first called, and she dropped the ball every step of the way dragging out the process. So all I can say is Well done Family First Legal Group! I wish I could give more than five stars!!

I want to thank my great team who handled my divorce. The moment you walk through the door you are greeted by Fabiana with a smile on her face and catering to your needs while awaiting your appointment.. Alex, Jason, and Jennifer were there every step of the way in a complicated situation. They were always supportive and compassionate through this ordeal. I came to think of them as friends - not just my legal team. Alex has an amazing team and Alex is always just a phone call away to advise and ease the anxieties throughout the painful process. Last, but not least, is Kaitlyn in Client Relations who was always available with any questions regarding billing or general questions. I would highly recommend Family First - you will not be disappointed or feel you are just a "BILLABLE CASH COW". Fran Verwilt

Attorney Boettcher and Paralegal Singleton were excellent. They responded to me promptly and efficiently. I felt well cared for and guided to make thoughtful decisions rather than wasteful and costly emotional mistakes. I am grateful to the whole team at FFLG.

I can describe my feeling right now. “ When it rains, look for rainbows. When it's dark, look for stars”. Here they are!!! My experience with Family First has been the best it could be for the circumstance. I spoke initially with Alex Peterson, the owner of Family First who helped guide me to Travis ( my attorney ) and his team Katharine, Jennifer, Brittany, Angela, and Jenna are always there to provide support, and encouragement and answer any questions I may have. My case was so quick, only 3 months! and I’M DIVORCED. If I can get 100 star ✨ review. I would ❤️ Thank you so much! “ If you wanna start a fight, you better throw a first punch; make it a good one” - Alex Peterson.
