Ms

Judith is the very best!! She not only fought tirelessly for my son and I, she truly cared about our situation. She is like nothing I’ve ever seen in court, and her knowledge of the judges and their personnel from years practicing in this county shows. I cannot recommend her highly enough!!

Best in St. Johns County

Judi has handled a few cases for me within family court and has done a remarkable job. She works tirelessly for her clients. I have had a few different lawyers over the years and Judi has been the best. I would not use another lawyer. The firms service is personable and top notch. If you need lit...igation or mediation services I highly recommend this attorney.

Excellent divorce attorney

Ms. Shine is excellent at what she does. Not only is she professional, she is detail oriented and a great communicator. She works tirelessly on behalf of her clients, and her many years experience is evident in her performance and results. I highly recommend her.

Highly Skilled and Knowledgeable Divorce Attorney

Judi represented me in a very complicated divorce that involved my business, child custody, and a long marriage. Judi is very knowledgeable in the area of Divorce Law, and she demonstrated that in the courtroom. She helped deliver favorable results in my very complex divorce case. I am very please...d with the attention she and her staff gave to my case. She is very well respected as a Divorce lawyer and mediator in the St. Augustine/North FL area. I am glad she wasn't on the opposing side!!

A well respected lawyer and mediator

Judith Shine is in my opinion the best in the business in the Saint Augustine. She represented me in a complicated divorce involving children and a long term marriage with my ex-wife. Her solid reputation and experience is a huge asset in court. Her deep knowledge of divorce law and how she manage...s in court took a lot of stress away from my divorce process. Her reputation as a divorce attorney and mediator is well known in the legal community in this community. The most comforting part of working with her is her deep passion and caring approach as if it was her family. She is without a doubt one of the hardest working persons I have ever met and fought hard every step of the way. Without hesitation, I would strongly recommend Judith Shine. I am glad she wasn't the opposing divorce attorney.
