Do not hire
He is and awful attorney and a lier. He is not an honest attorney and He make decisions and then blame you for his wrong decision. He tell you he has more experience that what he really had

Awful attorney
Under no circumstances go to this attorney for restraining orders or domestic violence issues. Truly one of the rudest individuals I have ever interacted with. Did not take me seriously as a client and somehow bafflingly seemed to create more issues on my end. Avoid at all possible costs

Highly recommended by a fellow attorney
As an attorney myself, I have high expectations for others in my profession. When I was accused of committing a crime, Tom met and exceeded those expectations. He worked closely with me to present a tremendous amount of legal and factual information to local prosecutors to demonstrate that the char...

Thomas Bert Feiter's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse attorney Tom Feiter. Tom is an outstanding attorney and advocate who always fights hard for his clients. He is trusted and respected in the legal community. Anyone in need of legal services would be well-served by hiring Tom."
"Mr. Feiter is a great advocate for his clients. I frequently send referrals to him for practice areas he focuses in. Those clients often times report positively back in regards to the work/results Mr. Feiter was able to obtain for them."
"I endorse Tom Feiter. He is a zealous advocate for his client and well respected in the community."
"Tom is a leader in the community. I first met Tom as the chair for the solo & small firm committee of the Orange County Bar Association. Tom is a great asset to other attorneys because he willingly shares experiences and knowledge to increase the competence of the legal community. His work ethic also translates into his competence, which in turn translates into results. Thank you for your leadership, Tom."
"Tom is a leader in our legal community and I endorse him as an experienced criminal defense attorney."
"I I strongly endorse this lawyer. Tommy is an extremely diligent, hard-working, and intelligent attorney. He is very patient and highly professional in the way he handles his caseload and other attorneys."
"I endorse Tom Feiter; he is an excellent and caring lawyer. Tom truly cares about his clients and his cases. He is also very active in the community, and has always been happy to assist me as I build my own practice. Tom has proven himself to be a very successful lawyer, who is not afraid to take a case to trial to get the best result for his clients. Give Tom a call!"
"I endorse this lawyer. As a former prosecutor and a current defense attorney and PI attorney, Tommy looks and his cases from many different view points. That ability allows him to game plan for what opposing counsel is going to go, and try to stop that or at least be ready for it when it happens. That is exactly what you need in your attorney!"
"I have known Tommy since he started with the State Attorney’s Office for the Ninth Judicial Circuit of Florida (Orlando). He and I were opponents on numerous cases when he was a prosecutor. Tommy is an extremely diligent, hard-working, conscientious, open-minded and intelligent. He is very patient and highly professional in the way he handles his caseload and other attorneys. Tommy is always well-prepared for court, very respectful to members of the court and opposing counsel, always represents himself in a highly professional manner, and is a “genuine” and sincere person. Tommy is an awesome person and lawyer. He demonstrates the same strong work ethic in private practice. Prior to becoming a lawyer I was an Army Captain. Therefore Tommy and I have had numerous conversations about the military since he is currently a Captain in the military reserves. Again I would strongly endorse/recommend Tommy Feiter."
"I whole-heartedly endorse this lawyer. Mr. Feiter has an awesome reputation in the Central Florida criminal defense community with good reason, he is knowledgeable, fierce in his representation of his clients and an all around great guy."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I first met Mr. Feiter when he was a prosecutor; he was fair and knowledgeable then and is even better now as a criminal defense attorney. When he sought board certification, I endorsed him then with the Florida Bar just as I continue to endorse him now. He will not back down when fighting his position, which is exactly what clients need in a criminal defense attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I have rarely been beat at a criminal traffic jury trial, but Tommy Feiter beat me once as a prosecutor and I will likely never forget how bad it stung because I had the better case! He probably has won so much, he does not even remember the case. That said, I hate losing more than I like winning, but I have to give props to any lawyer who was successful against me in court. Good job Tommy being the superior advocate that you are. Plus, he is an honorable man."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Tommy is a fighter! A great lawyer that is a true perfectionist about anything with his name on it. That combined with his commitment to integrity make Tommy your lawyer. I highly endorse Tommy!"
"Mr.Felter is an exemplary attorney who I would recommend to everyone and anyone. Hiring him might very well be the best decision that you have ever made. His answers on Avvo are perfect. I have practiced for 24 years as a judge, magistrate, prosecutor, and private attorney and he is one of the best I have encountered."
"I endorse this lawyer."
