I highly Recomend First Coast Law Office

I had an incredible experience with this law firm. They treated me like family and were always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. Whenever I left a voicemail, I received a call back the same day. Ms. Susan's fees were also very reasonable. I highly recommend this firm and encourage ...you to give them a call today.

Susan is the best

I consulted with Susan about a problem with my ex during a breakup. My ex had procession of the house and was refusing to sell. Susan gave me all the information I needed to solve the problem. Thank you for your invaluable information and for standing by me when I needed you. Susan is the best and m...y attorney for life.

She is the best she is someone I would trust with my life. She is such an outstanding attorney she really views you as a person and fights hard no one else I would ever recommend. She gave me my life back I could never repay her for what she has done for me and my family. I have referred her and she ...has done the same for them as well

The Best Attorney Ever!!

I was referred to Susan Pniewski in 2014. I was seeking a divorce from my husband of 23 years. Susan is so caring, knowledgeable and wonderful! The best attorney ever! Susan is so good that my now ex- husband refers people to Susan along with the people I refer. Susan is so good that I now want to go... to law school. Susan loves animals and I do too! I love her dogs. Thanks Susan Pniewski for all you do!

Life Savor

I came to Ms. Pniewski's office a little over 8 yrs ago and I couldn't be any happier with the results I have gotten. My case wasn't easy and she was up for the challenge. Believe me when I say it was a rocky road with my ex just to see my daughter. Moving forward anything I have needed in my case Ms.... Pniewski is on the spot trying to help me and figure out our next step and move to take action. I would and have recommended her to many people I know whom are in the same boat as I was those long 8 yrs ago. I know when I call she always stops and gives me her undivided attention. I couldn't be where I am today with my daughter without her ( I know I fired my former attorney who wouldn't listen or do anything in my case). I have 5 more yrs until my daughter turns 18 and thank goodness I have the best lawyer intown on speed dial if I have anymore issues.
