Tonya and her paralegal Kellie are 100% genuine and honest

When I consulted and hired Tonya and her paralegal Kellie, I received such a comfortable and positive vibe that they absolutely knew what they were doing. Tonya and her team were very upfront and honest 100% of the time. I was always well informed of all filings and very well prepared for every judic...ial proceeding. Tonya never once sugarcoated anything. Very straightforward and willing to answer ANY question you may have. I owe this team a sincere debt of gratitude for keeping my blended family and I together. This legal team genuinely cares for their clients and I couldn't appreciate them more! I recommend their law firm for ALL Family Court matters. They are an exceptionally amazing team and great people!

Awesome lawyer with the best paralegal staff

I 100% recommend Tonya Holman Law Firm. I will review a few things that set them apart from other firms and what I consider most important when you are working with an attorney. First, the paralegal team was Amazing. Kellie (Tonya's senior paralegal) was amazing. She kept me updated weekly on my ...case status. She always emailed me a copy of the clerk's receipt when updates had been made. When I did call or email I would always get a response the same day. Kellie was very knowledgeable and could quote Florida statues. She loves what she does and it shows. Having a strong paralegal team is very important to me and Tonya Holman's law firm has an outstanding one. Additionally, I recommend this law firm because Tonya is a very detailed orientated attorney. She check and rechecks everything. She never "shoots from the hip" and always has a plan. If she doesn't know something, she will research it and get back to you. I have never left her office without having my questions answered. I picked this law firm based on Tonya and Kellie's experience in family law when it comes to military situations. I'm glad I did and I am very happy with all the work they've done.

Relocation & Contempt Hearing

I hired Mrs. Holman to take over 2 cases that my previous attorney left in limbo for 11 months. I thoroughly researched lawyers and she came HIGHLY recommended. There are really no words to accurately describe Mrs. Holman and her Legal Assistant Kellie. Both are a team of fire! I put my trust in ...them both with a highly contested Relocation Hearing and Tonya and Kellie were honest, understanding and passionate about my case. NEVER did i have to worry about anything and both kept me well informed step by step of both hearings. Tonya is very knowledgeable, patient, understanding, loyal and trustworthy. In the courtroom she is a beast! She keeps notes to properly cross-examine, encourages clients to make notes, write questions during the hearing as well in case something comes up unexpectedly. I WOULD RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE!

Contempt of Court

***** Five Star Ranked!!! I highly recommend Tonya Holman. I found Mrs. Holman to be very professional, extremely knowledgeable with an equal balance of confidence- humble not cocky. Action oriented, never dragging her feet on my case, always responded in a timely manner. The office staff held the s...ame level of professionalism. Mrs. Holman was up front and honest regarding details of my case, she prepared me with the knowledge and confidence needed for court. In the court room...there's only one word to describe Tonya's performance -FEARLESS!! Tonya was impressive! She's a quick thinker; she pays attention to detail as well as innovated to think outside the box. Sharp in her communication skills- she was direct and clear. True integrity, She will not promise what she cannot deliver.

"I have known Tonya since before admission to the Florida Bar. She is thorough and professional. She has a lot of what I have always called good old fashion walking around good sense and she brings that to bear when advising clients which is extremely important, because it is not always about whether an attorney can take a case to court but whether you can get the same result without the risk of court. I definitely recommend Tonya and I do refer cases I am unable to handle to her."
