Fantastic Support, Guidance and Follow Through

Brenda and her team are unparalleled in their knowledge and understanding of the laws and their ability to get results in an ethical manner, despite a difficult situation. Furthermore, the ability to listen to the client and empathize while providing reality based guidance was outstanding. As a bo...nus, the costs were reasonable. I would highly recommend Brenda.

Excellent - Competent and Caring Professional

I have worked with Brenda Lee London for may years as a colleage in the collaborative divorce process. Brenda has a strong track record with both peers and clients. She is competent in both the law and in family dynamics. Her dedication to her clients and the field does not go unnoticed. She is he...avily involved in making Central Florida a better place through her involvement with Guardian Ad Litem and through worthy community projects. Many former clients have said that they believe that Brenda is one of the best attorneys in Central Florida. I agree. She takes great pride in her ability to provide unique and tailored legal services to each of her clients. In a world where clients wonder if they are "just a number" and if they will have an attorney who pays attention to what they and their families need, Brenda is the attorney who will never disappoint. I would hire her without hesitation!

Best Lawyer to Hire to Protect Your family

I am grateful to have retained Brenda London as the attorney in my divorce case. After 16 years of marriage my then husband and I were divorcing, and we had three children to consider. Brenda was recommended to me by a friend as one of the top family law attorneys in our community. I had conside...red another lawyer but chose Brenda. Not only is she very professional and knowledgeable, but she is kind and caring as well. Throughout the few months until my divorce became final she kept me constantly informed, gave me good sound advice, laid out my options for me, and was always considerate about her time and the financial consequences of my divorce. Throughout the collaborative process I always felt that she had my family’s best interests at heart. I highly recommend Brenda London as the best lawyer you can hire to protect your family!

So THANKFUL for Brenda!

I am so thankful my research led me to Brenda and Collaborative Law! I was a very nervous mother of three, embarking on a journey that I had so many questions about. Brenda explained how the process would work, and her fees were clearly stated. We met frequently (either in person, phone or email) and... she was always available for me. She was always prompt, and if she felt we needed to go over something during a group meeting, she very professionally asked that we all took a break so that she could guide me on issues. We had a home to sell, a military retirement to split, money markets, etc., and she always knew how to handle the situation. If at anytime she wasn't 100% sure, she held off until she was able to research the issue a little more. She never talked "at" me, she always talked to me and made sure I was comfortable. For a bad situation of a divorce, she made it so much easier!
