Would not recommend
I would have been better off representing myself. On my first court date, Alfant showed up 10 minutes late. The opposing attorney was on time and had signed in. Had Zach showed up on time, we would not have waited 4 hours to see the judge, (which of course, I was charged $1250.00 for). On the sam...

Replied last December 13, 2018Dear Christopher: I am so sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the work that we did and I very much regret that you feel you would have been better off on your own. If you would like to discuss your case or your experience, please give me call and we can arrange a time to sit down as soon as possible. I do have to take exception to your statements regarding my being 'ten minutes late' or that my not being 'signed in' caused us to wait longer. Please give us a call or stop by the office, as I would really like the opportunity to sit down with you and address your comments and concerns. Respectfully, Zach

Absolutely amazing
Attorney Alfant began representing me in December of 2016 and to say that he is a great Attorney does not even begin to describe him. He went above and beyond and helped save me from my own ignorance of my situation. He helped give me a voice when I couldn’t do it on my own and he believed in me when...

WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!
I hired Zach and his team to modify my agreement with my ex-wife. From the first point of contact it was a wonderful experience. I felt welcomed, listened to and the entire team always took the time to explain what was happening anytime I had questions. I highly recommend this firm!

Thanks Zach
I highly recommend Mr. Alfant as a divorce lawyer. He took care of everything quickly and accurately. I didn't have to ask him for status updates or wait forever for news. He's thorough and very nice. Thanks Zach for everything. You were the biggest help.

AWESOME ATTORNEY!!!
I would definitely recommend Zach to anyone who needs help with a family law case. I hired him in March 2013 to help with my child custody case and he did an outstanding job for me. No matter how many times I emailed him or called him worrying about my case...he always got right back to me and reass...
Zachary Matthew Alfant's Lawyer Endorsements
"I am a big fan of Zach Alfant and his work. In the more than 13 years I've been practicing law, I've rarely found the combination of ethics, intelligence, and dedication that he brings to his cases. He has a fantastic sense of practical solutions and strives to achieve a fair result for his clients even if it means an early settlement that will end up in lower attorneys' fees for himself. Yet he still has the wherewithal to fight through trial if it's the right option for his client. Zach is one of the few Jacksonville attorneys I keep on my short list if someone needs help, and I'd recommend him to a family member or friend without hesitation. For ethics, practicality, or effectiveness, there are few family law attorneys in Jacksonville better than Zach Alfant."
