Highly Recommended - Honest, Dependable, Excellent Experience(s) (and yes, I still retain her services!)
Kelly McNeal is a true professional who provides excellent representation. In addition to numerous legal questions/consults, I have been Ms. McNeal's client for both a divorce and child relocation case and have been very impressed with the way my cases have been handled. From the initial consultati...

Excellent, professional, and HIGHLY recommended.
Kelly is FANTASTIC! We had previous representation and had to hire Kelly for a separate matter. Once our previous attorney made us nervous we switched both cases over to Kelly. She is extremely knowledgeable and is aggressive for her clients. She is quick to respond and very pleasant to deal with....

review
Kelly Mcneal I retained did not respond to several emailed questions, was a person of few words with no constructive advice on pressing matters, appeared to empathize more with the other side's point of view and, to top it off, quickly burned thru my "refundable" retainer (with no ground gained and n...
I came into this client's case in the middle of the proceedings. I reviewed all pleadings, helped him file a Financial Affidavit, gathered his discovery, attended mediation, had numerous correspondence with the client, and drafted an extensive motion. The client did not like my advice, because it followed the law and not what he wanted to happen. I also had to withdraw after contacting the Florida Bar Ethics department regarding this client's behavior. His total charge was $1,450.00 for an extensive amount of work.

I went to Kelly with absolutely no knowledge of what could legally be done to help my situation. She was patient with me, honest and extremely professional the entire time. What should have been a simple thing ended up turning into a long ordeal due to defendant's the evasion of service and continued...

Outstanding Attorney Who Fights for Client
Kelly was the fourth attorney that I've had over the years of dealing with my ex-husband. He frivolously sued me several years before, and I ended up with attorneys convincing me that there was no way to prove that he (a sole-proprietor doctor) made more than I do (a school teacher). Kelly was able...
