As a matter of course, in all divorces and in most family law matters involving children, child support must be addressed. Therefore, stating that it is only 10% of my practice is a misnomer. I deal with child support issues in most of my cases.

Professional - Attentive - Caring

Lusan & her team were hired to assist us in relocating our minor daughter out of the state of Florida. They worked swiftly from day one to ensure all information was gathered and that the reason of the move would make sense to the legal proceedings. Lusan is experienced and knowledgeable as to stat...e laws for this type of case and ensured that all steps were properly covered. Our case was resolved in record time. Not all are that easy, but having an attorney who communicates and can explains each step makes all the difference in the world. Highly recommended.

Excellent, Direct, Get's It Done!!!

We met with Lusan for a consultation and we knew right away that she was the attorney for us. She was tough and up front about everything. Our case involved paternity, parental time sharing and child support. Lusan from the beginning was always up front and gave her best advise. We explained our ...situation and she suggested we could ask the court for a GAL to be appointed to our case so that way our son's voice could be heard and all our bases were covered. After we got paternity established, we continued with getting parental time sharing. Unfortunately, the mother in our case was a little difficult so mediation did not work out for us. After expressing to Lusan our concerns for our son being with his mother full time because of things he told us and we had witnessed, she suggested we could get a temporary relief hearing in getting a parenting plan established. Between the interviews the GAL done, and the evidence we had presented in court, the judge ruled in our favor. We started out with nothing and the tables were turned. Mother only had every other weekend, plus 1 weekday evening and holidays. We tried to settle again outside of court but the mother did not want too. So when we went to court via Virtual Court and child support would now be established, our results were more than what we were expecting. We WON and everything we wanted got granted. Lusan was always reasonable about what our next move should be, and she was always upfront about what the costs were. Throughout our process she was aware of the money we were spending and would always try not to cost us unnecessary fees. She is absolutely amazing and we would recommend her to anyone. Our mother in this case is actually still dealing with Lusan because a father from another one of her children is using her as well. That itself, says everything. Our family is truly and forever thankful for Lusan and her team. She is always quick with emails and phone calls and always will let you know what is going on. We never felt like we were kept in the dark about anything. She truly is an angel to our family. Thank you Lusan and your team for everything you have done for us.

Astute Professional!

By the end of our initial consult, after we gave Lusan the details of our case, she immediately gained our confidence by her candor and recommended course of action. As our attorney, she maintained that confidence throughout the entirety of our case by her attention to detail and persistent interacti...on with the opposing lawyer. Lusan was able to facilitate our resolution/settlement via mediation, and we would advise anyone to seek her counsel, should they need expert legal advice.

The best

I was very lost and confused as to the process of my divorce and finding Mrs Llabona firm was the best thing that happened to me, she was able to accomplished all my goals and get the results that I expected. The office staff was super professional, knowledgeable and polite. All my expectations were ...met and superseded.

Posted by Mirjam | March 17, 2015 | Child Custody

So grateful!!

When I called Ms. Llabona, I was in great distress over my son's father who had little to no contact with him for over 7 years, but then decided to go to court to get "shared custody" once he found out I had a boyfriend, who takes care of my son as he was his own child. Ms. Llabona was highly rec...ommended to me by another attorney and a judges assistant. From the very first consultation on the phone to the last visit, I felt comfortable and knew I was in good hands. She does not procrastinate and kept me informed constantly about the case. She was always empathetic towards my situation, but was realistic and never made false hopes as to the possible outcome. It was clear from the first court appearance that Ms. Llabona was very well respected by court personnel as well as the other attorney. She was knowledgable and precise in her questions and responses to the court. He office staff was extremely friendly and knowledgable and I always received calls back right away with the requested information. The billing was accurate and always sent out in a timely manner. The way her office handled my case, was very organized. Of all the possible outcomes, we reached the best one for my son's well-being, considering the very questionable current Florida family law legislature regarding shared parenting. I am sure I will have to go back to court again due to my son 's father already being in non-compliance with the court agreement, and I would not choose any other attorney than Ms. Llabona. Thank you, Ms. Llabona and your office staff :)

"I am a family law attorney in NC, and I needed to refer a client to an attorney in Orlando, Florida. I found Attorney Llabona on AVVO and contacted her. She answered all my questions, sent me templates and forms that my client needed to file with the court in FL, even sent me copies of the pleadings filed there by the other party. And she did so as a professional courtesy without compensation. My client's ex had fled NC with the children. With Attorney Llabona's help, my client was able to get her children back. Thank you Lusan!"
