Search elsewhere for your attorney needs

Poor service and results. Search elsewhere for your attorney needs. I received a referral to this law firm through the Florida Bar referral program. After some research and our initial conversation, I decided to retain Michele for a real estate issue I was working through. Following the initial co...nversation /consultation, that's about where the positive experience ended. Following that, the case was handed off to a paralegal who attempted to make three to five calls per month in hopes of reaching the proper personnel, at the rate of $350/month. This went on for four months with zero results or progress made on the case, all while receiving little to no communication. Don't waste your money.

Excellent service!

My mom hired her to set up a trust for us kids. When my mom passed away, I was so pleased to find out that Michele had set up everything to avoid probate. My brother and I were able to distribute things easily with Michelle’s guidance. I was so impressed I decided to my own estate planning. her staff... was friendly and professional. Michelle explained everything to me in words I could understand. It took a weight off my shoulders knowing I am set up for the future. I highly recommend her!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
