Client Review for Florida Bar Hearing

Ms. Conan did a great job on my case. I was unfamiliar with the Florida Bar hearing process and she guided me through so that during the hearing there were no surprises and I was able to emerge successfully. I would highly recommend.

A True Superhero

I am so thankful for Atty. Conan! I was not surprised to receive the dreaded Notice of Hearing letter. I have a somewhat sketchy looking past, so I knew that my previous bad mistakes were going to come back to haunt me. A classmate that had gone through the hearing process already gave me a phone nu...mber of the attorney that she used, so when I received the letter on that Saturday morning, my first thought was to call her attorney. After leaving a message, I did my own research and found Atty. Conan. I called her, left a voice message, and within 20 minutes she called back. ON A SATURDAY! She was so calming and kind that I knew immediately she was the one I needed! She was so patient with me, explaining the process step by step, answering all of my questions, and gently guiding me. The prep process for a Bar hearing can be grueling because it requires you to look at, document, and explain everything that you've ever done, some of which can be quite shameful. ATTORNEY CONAN NEVER JUDGED ME! NEVER! She recognized the changes that I'd made and she was supportive. With that being said, she never sugar coated anything. She never promised me any results and she never gave me false encouragement. She made sure to hold me accountable for my responsibility in preparing for the hearing, but she was doing it from a genuinely caring place. She was wise enough to know that even the documentation had to tell a story of positive change, and that no one could tell my story better than me. She made sure I told my own story - all of it. Her ethics were rock solid! She encouraged me to tell information that had not come up yet but could be possibly damaging later on, but she was so supportive that telling everything was empowering. Even in the hearing, when I was being grilled by the panel, Attorney Conan let me cry when I needed to cry, and she even held my hand during some tough questions. The best thing about Attorney Conan, in my opinion, is that she is a woman of faith. Her faith is so strong that she cannot help but be positive and her positivism is contagious. While going through the prep process I talked with several of my professors about the upcoming hearing. Several of them offered to give me a referral to an attorney that they have heard awesome things about. They were all talking about Attorney Conan! My Bar Prep faculty spoke so highly about her, too. I had the pleasure of meeting someone, by coincidence, who had worked with Attorney Conan many years ago. It was obvious that they really respected her work. Even at my Bar hearing, I was walking back to the waiting room and another person in the hallway stopped me to tell me that my attorney was awesome and that they knew that I was in good hands. I agreed completely! If you are in need of an ethical attorney for a Bar hearing - you need to make Attorney Conan your first choice. Make her your only choice! I know she was exactly who I needed in my corner. I am so thankful for her help - from her patience in the beginning, to her guidance and support throughout the process, and especially her call to personally deliver the news that I am now cleared by the Bar. She is absolutely a Super Hero to me!

Competent & Caring

When I first received the hearing letter I was mortified! I thought about going through the process alone but I know legal counsel would be more effective. Elizabeth told me more in our first conversation than I'd learned my entire 1st yr of law school with respect to the Florida Bar. She set deadlin...es and worked with my busy schedule to ensure all necessary documents & briefs were in early and accurate. I felt completely aware of what would happen when we entered the hearing and was able to stay calm and composed throughout the while ordeal. When we arrived, a few people knew her name and reputation I'd gather. I was cleared fairly quickly and I have no doubt that it was due to her great efforts in my case!

Florida Bar....Elizabeth Conan is a must have.

Elizabeth helped me through a rough time with the Florida Bar with great results. She cares about your future and will give you the tools to succeed. Without her I know I would not have been prepared and don't believe I would be a Lawyer today.

APPEARING BEFORE THE FLORIDA BAR? CONTACT ELIZABETH CONAN!

I endorse Elizabeth S. Conan. I had a very difficult case. I had been arrested 11 times, filed bankruptcy, lied on my bankruptcy paperwork, lied on my bar application, lied on my employment application, had three outstanding judgements, and had multiple checking account violations. Needless to say, I... was initially denied and entered into a consent judgment. After the time elapsed, I needed a lawyer again so I retained my previous lawyer. I lost confidence in his representation and retained Elizabeth. Elizabeth, required me to amend everything that I had previous completed. During our communications she was honest, I was able to reach Elizabeth, and she always kept me informed. Elizabeth, did more than represent me, she taught me the importance of zealous representation. Elizabeth was so thorough, there were few questions to answered at my formal hearing. Admitted 2014
