Professional, highly effective, and compassionate

Working with Susannah Collins on my divorce was an entirely stream-lined and focused experience. Her comprehensive knowledge of Florida and nationwide statutes was impressive, as was her dedication to providing favorable results for her clients. Additionally, Susannah's philanthropic endeavors reflec...t a desire to support the lives within her sphere of influence. She is an asset to the community and a high recommended asset to anyone seeking legal representation.

Excellent Representation

Ms. Collins provided excellent counsel, advice and guidance throughout my entire process. She was responsive to my needs but was a great backstop in what always is a very difficult and stressful time. Her knowledge and experience were indispensable. Other than her professionalism and expertise, she i...s trustworthy.

Mr.

Mrs. Collins was an absolute pleasure to work with and a consummate professional. She was timely with all aspects of my case; responsive to my court documents/petitions/questions; intelligent and extremely knowledgeable on all matters related to her specialty; and most importantly she was an advocat...e throughout the entire handling of my case and especially during court appearances. Even while I was out of the country, Mrs. Collins aggressively worked on my case and kept me informed of all related matters and outcomes.

...till the rest of my life I will thank God for her!

I met Susannah in most difficult time of my life, when I hide from my abusive and violent husband and no one want to represent me in court... I begged God to send me a lawyer! She chose to help me with my divorce case when I didn’t expect... Later on I learned that Ms. Collins is a passionate, a d...edicated and a brilliant professional! I can’t thank her enough for all that she has done for me! Susannah Collins is truly the best attorney that I’ve ever could imagine!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
