Elizabeth Jane Brehany

In the middle of a very ugly divorce in which I began to lose faith I found Ms Brehany. I hired her on the spot and never looked back. Ms Brehany not only caught up with ongoing litigation but walked into court a few days after hiring her and brought all hope back into my life and my three childrens'... lives. I hired Ms Brehany in 2006 to handle my divorce and custody situation which we won, and she is still my attorney of record dealing with my ex when need be. She understands the needs of her clients, works with them on every avenue from making payments, to lending a shoulder to cry on. She is very professional and caring. She listens to the needs of clients and has always been on top of things. I have every confidence in her abilities in all aspects from filing needed papers to mediation to courtroom situations.

My first Appeal attorney told me if a business partner had done this to another partner, he would be put in jail, but in divorce law this is acceptable. Over 11 months, he requested three time extensions, and called me by phone the evening before the third time extension, and notified me he was rec...ommending dismissal of my case. My case was so egregious, I simply could not give up. He withdrew and requested a fourth emergency time extension ending December 23, 2015. The First District Court of Appeals approved the extension and by the Grace of God, gave me until January 8th to file a brief. I made payments for the first appeal year of $18,850, for legal, court mandated, and $30,000 alimony equaling $48,850. Since 39 years of working and saving had been used for court costs or ordered to a 6 year former wife, it was hard to justify another attorney. The weapon of choice for SOME attorney's is to load you up with expenses and obtain through distorted, twisted statements, judgments against you so grievous that you will acquiesce. I sought another appeal attorney, hoping for equity. My search went from Milton, Miami, Orlando and Tallahassee, Florida, but was unable to retain council. I ultimately put in my own request for a fifth time extension. I was led literally by the Grace of God to call Elizabeth Jane Brehany's office on Wednesday and room was made for me to have an appointment the next day, Thursday, January 14, 2016 at 4:00. That morning, opposing counsel responded and objected my request for extension of time. By 5:40, on Thursday evening, Jane filed Notice of Appearance, and Response to Objection. And, by Monday, 4:00 p.m., four days later, Jane had read 800 page transcript, identified five appealable items, written a 33 page brief and was in the process of filing when the Court sent an approval of my request for time extension. Elizabeth Jane's first draft brief was extremely thorough, and I could only say "Amazing". Her very capable Paralegal, found two issues outstanding in my original appeal attorney's process, "Designation to Reporter" and "Directions to Clerk". My first Attorney could not have filed a brief if he wanted to. After correcting this, the brief was filed on January 26th, 2016. We are awaiting opposing brief as of Tuesday, February 2, 2016. Elizabeth Jane read, was ready to file within four days on five issues with fourteen appeal cases across five district courts backing her arguments. I am extremely satisfied with her reading, comprehension, retention, understanding, experience and writing. The brief is incredible to read, easy to follow and tells a story like a novel. I have been told she has a photographic memory and has exceeding fast reading capabilities with 100% comprehension. Her recall and ability to argue exceeds most. My trial attorney missed very great premarital property issues that would have prevented any of this. Elizabeth Jane was able to weed through all of the opposing attorney's fluff and find the measures of truth that were available to help. I am eternally grateful to her for her endless tireless gift of life she dedicated to my help over a weekend when she could have been doing something for herself. I discovered after trial that it is common practice among SOME attorney's to advise your spouse against you and set your soul up for total destruction long before divorce is initiated. If you have discerned the "so called" trusted soul you married has conspired with another ("") for your destruction. Don't feel alone. For I too have found they are at ease, content, without repentance, consider it honorable, and enjoy their crafty and immoral use of the legal system to plunder the wealth of honest hard working people. For truth and justice, call Elizabeth Jane Brehany. And pray that the same Florida Registered Paralegal will be working with her as they are an excellent appeal team.

Mrs. Brehany is an awesome lawyer. She not only gets results, but also cares about her clients. My case took over 2 years. As a father fighting for custody of his children, it was a long and hard fight. Mrs. Brehany was there with me and never quit. In the end, I got custody of my children, whic...h was a miracle and blessing. Mrs. Brehany is very professional while always being friendly and caring. She always told me the truth and provided me objective advice even when it wasn’t something that I wanted to hear. She always attentively listened to all the information I provided and then did the necessary research to make my case stronger. On numerous occasions, she made time in her busy schedule when I had emergencies occur during my case. For each hearing, she carefully planned it and then went over the strategy with me in detail. I can’t thank Mrs. Brehany enough for her hard work and dedication to my case. I would definitely recommend her if you need a lawyer in Pensacola. She is the best.

These are words that come to mind when describing Jane Brehany. I have retained Mrs. Brehany twice since 2007. Legal matters are never pleasant and having an attorney that you can trust is vital to the process. I know that I have the best representation possible and that Mrs. Brehany will do whatev...er it takes to obtain a fair and equitable result for me. She has always been so prepared for each deposition and trial and presents such a professional and calm manner that it helps keep me from falling apart! I wouldn't wish any type of legal battle on anyone but if you find yourself in that situation, I couldn't think of a better attorney to have on your side.

I hired Jane to represent me in my divorce and child support case. From our first meeting, I liked her attention to detail, thoroughness, and how kind she was. It was easy to relax even though I was in a very uncomfortable situation. I retained her after our meeting. There were several aspects I like...d about her: she was prompt in responding to my questions, understood I needed to get out of this marriage quickly despite the lack of my ex filing the proper documentation, and brought quick dissolution to my failed marriage. My petition & final hearing covered everything that I needed, which could very easily have not gone in my favor. I would and have recommended her to others.
