The best Lawyer in town!
Dear Orange County Bar Association, Attention: Lawyer Referral Department Re: Recommendation of John Morey P.A. 2/9/2011 I want to thank you for referring John Morey to me in a highly contiguous 16 year post marital dispute. The courts stated that our case was the worst divorce case in Orlando on record. With 21 volumes of motions, orders, and pleadings a resolution appeared dim. Over the years, I hired “I thought” the top attorneys in town such as, Bill Barnett, Diane Holmes, Tonya Plout, and Andrea Black. I paid $350 – $400 hr. (over $150,000 total) without a resolution, which resulted in financial hardship. None of which were successful in understanding the root issues and solving the problem until hiring John Morey. I have been in a proactive litigation with my ex-husband for the past 16 years. My ex-husband is (was) a powerful man, wealthy, controlling, and narcissistic who terrorized and abused my children and myself for 21 years. These types of high powered men love “the game” and the fight. John Morey took the time to listen to me when I called him in tears with ongoing episodes. I was frustrated/stressed, and reaching my limit. John was not only the best attorney I have ever had in 16 years he “GOT IT “done! I finally have seen justice served after all these years and it is because John Morey never gave up, had a plan, executed the plan, and carried it out with excellence. In my eyes, John Morey is my “hero” and I am so thankful you recommended him to me, I got everything and more than I asked for… A success story! Warmest gratitude, Susan Constantine

BEST MOVE WE MADE
After leaving an nationally known (attorney) firm, due to lack of attention or knowledge on our case, we retained Mr. John Morey. Given short notice, he handled our upcoming court date, with complete success, alleviating our fears. We've never had to leave a message at his firm, the phone is always answered, our emails are always returned, in a very timely manner. He has answered our questions, knows our case and has counseled our fears. We are impressed with Mr Morey's knowledge and the complete attention to our case. We've never had to repeat our case from the beginning each time, as we had in the past with another firm. His personal style has made us feel comfortable and secure, that he is taking care of us and even though we are paying clients, we've never felt like "another case". I would recommend Mr. Morey to my friends and family, and have.

Excellent Legal Representation.
The Morey Law Firm was recommended to me for legal representation in a matter that looked impossible to overcome. Mr Morey’s knowledge and interpretation of the law, his expertise and his patience is exceptional. His representation in and out of court was admirable. Great communication skills and very transparent. My son and I are both pleased with his services and the exceptional job he has done in our legal battle. Thank you Mr Morey and to your entire staff.

Divorce sucks.. BUT JOHN MADE THE PROCESS SMOOTH
I recently had to go through a divorce. It was emotionally taxing and overall miserable. However, I found an amazing law firm that got me through it with minimal emotional stress. The Morey firm explained every part of the process to me, and the team were there every step of the way. I never want to go through a divorce again but will definitely use the Morey law firm for all my legal needs in the future.

Mr. Morey - Review
Mr. Morey is an intelligent attorney with a professional manner. My lawsuit was a small claims case he filed for me against the defendant, and he won every part of it for me. He fully answered my questions about each step in the process. He knew exactly how to handle the case, and presented the evidence in the best way and at the correct time to have the most impact. In the courtroom he was polite but firm. He was a gentleman, and even helped the opposing party when they had difficulties with the video call and audio on it, so that we could get started. I am very pleased with the services he provided and would use his firm again in the future if there was a need.

John Morey handled my case during the Covid Pandemic. It took a long time for a resolution but he won my acrimonious case through perseverance and hard work. I'm very thankful for the result he gave me.

Security Deposit Received
I decided to hire an attorney to send a demand letter to my ex LL to return my $1,100 security deposit. I suffered a lot of mental damage during my stay at the property up to recent having to spend money to get my money. Although I didn’t receive my attorney fees, I did receive my entire deposit. John Morey communicated every step of the way and also advised that I shouldn’t create more issues trying to pursue further because most don’t even get that back let alone the fees. At least I did get my security deposit. John Morey was very professional and never treated me like I was a burden even when asking questions I already knew answers to. My nightmare is over and I have Mr. Morey to thank for that. If I ever need future services and his firm is able to represent I will definitely hire him again. 2 thumbs up and I recommend him 1000%.

A well oiled war machine think tank. Morey is the new Superman!
My case was tactfully thrown at me with one weeks notice by the other parties evil attorney that only had LIES for their ammo. I am nothing but amazed by his professionalism, integrity and diligence. Each step was explained to me clearly, while the affirmative expectations were always realistic and tackled assertively, he took every one of my phone calls if he was in the office or returned them within 24 hr tops, he answered all my e-mails, he kept me at all times informed. His paralegal was as accessible, friendly and diligent. Legal troubles are unpleasant and stressful, finding a good attorney is not easy, finding a good attorney that keeps you informed is a luxury. You would be in great hands! God bless you for helping my family Mr. Morey! I CERTAINLY recommend Mr. Morey while looking forward to much success! *****

Exceptional!
It very hard to find people who truly cre these days but John Morey is certainly one of them. I've contacted lawyers in the past with either no response or an experience that cold and uncaring. John was very prompt with getting back to me and really took the time to explore all my options and putting himself in my shoes to help me make the best decision with my eviction case. Something that has been stressing me out for days, but after talking with John I feel much better about my next move and the situation at hand. I would recommend him to anyone in my same situation. I hardly write an online review for anyone but my experience with him was truly one of a kind and deserving.

We've hired a lot of attorneys--John Morey is THE BEST!
We were being sued by a foreigner who tried to extort triple the refund of a custom-made order by attempting to discredit me; who pursued accusations/charges through the Sheriff's Office, which the detective dismissed; who finally resorted to a contingency lawsuit. We hired Mr. John Morey to file a motion and represent us at the hearing. He was OUTSTANDING. He understood our case and made recommendations which saved us potentially thousands of dollars in representation fees. We highly recommend John Morey. He is extremely competent, compassionate, and professional. We definitely will utilize his services again in the near future.

Mr. Morey is a great representation of what a lawyer should be!
My mother was going through an illegal eviction and was experiencing harassment from her property manager and their hired attorney. We had 2 days until her court hearing. Mr. Morey was willing to take her case, but didn't want to charge my mom the outrageous retainer because of the short notice. Instead of blowing us off he offered a colleague by name and number along with other possible options. We took his advice and my mother's case was dismissed, no lawyer fees or court fees, as well as her being offered a new apartment. I recommend him for his professionalism and his fairness and honesty. That's rare for a lawyer. Although we did not retain him he wished us luck and was concerned about the outcome for my mom's sake. That's was comforting. If you are looking for someone to take your needs seriously and treat you like you matter Mr. Morey is the lawyer for you! A class act!

Made the process so easy
We had been dealing with a squatter living in a house that was left to myself and 7 relatives. I hired Mr Morey's firm to represent us in an unlawful detainer case to get the person out so the house could be sold. The process was quick and everyone at the firm was easy to talk to. Everything was explained in terms I understood and the squatter was out in such a short time. Highly recommend them.
