keeps you grounded, smart and capable of getting results

From the beginning Mrs. Susanna was a great listener and approached our case with passion and common sense. She was not in this to just collect a paycheck and rack up unnecessary fees. She understood our goals for our case, and when we needed to pivot due to my high conflict ex she understood how to... handle our case to get it resolved the best possible way for my daughter, she kept me grounded during an emotional family legal battle. Her knowledge of the law, and her ability to negotiate allowed us to reach an agreement. My case had plenty of methods of approach and she helped navigate and went over options to ensure we got through this legal battle as smoothly as possible. She had a good balance of being aggressive, holding high standards, and also knowing how to communicate with opposing counsel to get things resolved quickly. She is honest, dependable, and ethical. She is also aggressive in fighting for you if you hire her and is the lawyer you do not want to go up against, you want her on your side if you are dealing with a high conflict ex.

Phenomenal Attorney

We felt hopeless, and our faith in the judicial system was lost… then we found Susie. She moved quickly to make sense of our difficult past. Susie was a true advocate for our family. She showed compassion for our situation and delicately helped us through tough conversations. Susie can be described a... ‘bulldog’ when in the courtroom because she invests herself completely in your case and fights for your best interest. She has been a blessing to our family and has changed our lives completely. We would recommend her to anyone going through a difficult custody situation. Her honesty, wisdom, and compassion truly set her apart from all other attorneys.

Looking for a divorce with children

I had a complicated divorce involving a business and children, after consult with Ms. Quesenberry I was confident she was the attorney for me. She not only has guided me through the process, but put my mind at ease that she is there for me. She is attentive to the situation, excellent in communicatio...n, and a fighter in the courtroom. I highly recommend Ms. Quesenberry. I can't thank her enough

Susanna Quesenberry

Susanna represented me in a yearlong Dependency case in Putnam County. Before Susanna I was represented by an attorney that was unapproachable, uneducated and dismissive to the point that she was a hindrance to my case as opposed to being my ally. I had been bullied, misled and terrorized by the Sta...te of Florida to the point I was on the verge of losing hope. Susanna took the bull by the horns, so to speak, and led me caringly through the terrifying process that I was completely blind to. She gave me honest and candid advice that I followed. I had lost all trust in everyone and everything up until this point but she never faltered and was always compassionate and understanding answering my endless questions and reassuring me constantly. She was there for me through the tears and my triumph, sadness and joy. She once told me that if all her clients were like me her job would be easy. I feel as though if all attorneys followed her example it would make all clients experiences less stressful and simpler. While I did the seemingly endless footwork I credit her with steering my in the right direction during the fight of my life. My final reward was custody of my son. She is honest, trustworthy, knowledgeable and above all ... caring I cannot recommend her highly enough nor can I ever thank her enough.
