This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I will continue to rely on Mr. Taylor’s expertise.

Mr. Taylor did an excellent job handling my divorce. He spent many hours outside of normal business hours to reach an agreement which saved perhaps months of discovery as well and associated expenses. He keep me informed, explained the law and how a judge may rule in my case. We discussed options and... he provided an honest opinion on the like outcome to each option. I found Mr. Taylor and his staff to be very client focused, easy to talk to, and proficient in handling the details and documentation of my case.

Great lawyer everytime

We have been using him for multiple years as our family lawyer. Anytime he's called he is going above and beyond. No one will ever be able to say that he's not doing his job. He is a 10 and the best lawyer you will receive in the state of Florida. Since I've known him he have been the king.

The King

I was lost and called Me. Lucas for directions. He politely told me how to get to my favorite restaurant in Miami. When I arrived at my destination, I felt like committing a misdemeanor. I called Mr. Lucas and he persuaded me not to committ any crimes. I thought that was very considerate. He cou...ld have encouraged me to do it this knowing that it might generate more business for him. But, he put the public interest first. All I can say is, classy.

Would not recommend

Lawyer did not remain in contact throughout the process with my family member. He said that he would do certain things that were never taken care of. He was unprepared for the court date and the information he gave to the family was not true resulting in an unjust sentence.

Criminal defense lawyer | Mar 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Lucas is a fellow prior prosecutor who worked in the Third Judicial Circuit State Attorneys Office as I did before entering private practice. I have worked many cases across from Lucas as the prosecutor and him the Defense attorney and it was always a pleasure having cases with him. He is professional, polite, knowledgeable and very experienced. Anytime I had him file a notice in on a case, I was very glad because I know he would communicate well, get the work done, and always be professional and ethical. I recommend him for criminal and family law cases and feel very privileged to have him as a colleague in the Third Circuit Bar."
