Consummate Professional, personal, honest

Jane and I have been working together on a very difficult divorce case with a lot of factors that made the case complicated. After thorough and honest review we had a custody hearing that went well because of her innate professionalism and experience in the field of family law. I am pleased with the ...results and am confident in her future ability to represent me in final legal proceedings. Absolutely retain her, she is a wonderful person with an honest, genuine character that allows for a great working environment during emotional crises.

Great Outcome

Ms. Brehany is a credit to her profession. She is a no nonsense lawyer who gets down to business and wins. I am well pleased with the outcome of my case. She was careful with my retainer and did what she could to save me money.

Kept a difficult situation very manageable

A friend of mine recommended E. Jane Brehany to assist with my divorce. This was a worthwhile recommendation! Ms. Brehany and her staff were very professional and easy to work with. They provided me upfront simple and easy guidelines to follow which made the process very efficient and relatively s...tress free considering the circumstances. There was never any unnecessary paperwork or meetings. We took care of everything through the mediation process without having to endure any court appearances. Ms. Brehany and her team were exceptional.

Great experience

Very professional and painless experience. We were given great guidance through my step son’s adoption process. E Jane Brehany was knowledgeable of the entire process, even when dealing with states outside of Florida. Would highly recommend or use again.

Excellent and experienced attorney

I originally sought the legal counsel of Ms. Brehany after my separation by the recommendation of a friend who had recently gone through a divorce and had used Jane as her attorney. Although it began as an amicable divorce my situation eventually became very complicated and hostile after my ex-husban...d stopped paying child and spousal support and eventually sued me for custody of my sons. Jane always gave me honest and sound advice each step of the way. Once we eventually went to court Jane did an outstanding job representing me and was able to help me get a lump sum payment of child support owed to me and monthly payments after that. My case had a lot of moving pieces making it very sensitive and complex and Jane and her legal assistant Sandy were always there for me, both professionally and emotionally as their client. They both treated me with compassion and respect and I highly recommend Jane for anyone going through a difficult divorce or custody situation. Had Ms. Brehany not been as knowledgeable and fearless in the courtroom as she was I believe my situation would have turned out very differently. I will absolutely use Jane in the future if necessary and I trust her professional judgement implicitly.
