Knowledgeable, responsive and caring.

I screened and called several lawyers in the Orlando area before deciding to move forward with my case. On my initial consult with Stephanie she provided me with so much information and all the possibilities. I could tell by that consult she was knowledgeable and really cared about her clients. A wee...k after our consult Stephanie reached out to ME to see if I had any questions. After a few months, I decided to have Stephanie Represent me in my child custody case. Stephanie did a great job of making me feel like I had someone who truly cared representing me. Stephanie responded to all my emails and calls almost immediately. As a result of Stephanie's hard work, I am now able to spend more time with my daughter and be involved in all the important aspects of her life. If anyone is looking for real support in a child custody case, reach out to Stephanie!

Mr Bejer-Olivas

Ms Alcalde helped obtain replacement citizenship papers that were lost. She was prompt and thorough and explained everything very clearly. I highly recommend her and will not hesitate to use her services again.

Top notch lawyer and extremely profesional

Stephanie Alcalde was my fifth attorney during my lengthy and difficult divorce process. I was very frustrated with the results from my previous attorneys. Stephanie took charge and was able to finalize my divorce. I was very impressed for her professionalism, attention to detail and honesty. She... was very organized and was on top of everything at all times. I have to thank her for her patience dealing with my difficult former wife. I would not hesitate to request her services for any future legal matters. She is truly and excellent lawyer. Thanks Stephanie!!!

Knowledgeable and understanding

Stephanie understood my complicated situation and told me possible options and outcomes. I felt that she is very knowledgeable and professional. I feel that she is care abut me as a client and was always available if I had any questions. Stephanie was well prepared and the whole process ended up soon...er than I expected. I will always recommend her because she was able to find solutions, when others don’t know what to do or couldn’t understand my situation.

I would hire her again...

I had been searching for an attorney to help me with a divorce with children, child support, and time sharing case. Before contacting Ms. Alcalde, I reached out to about a dozen other attorneys. As cliche as it sounds, when I spoke with her, I knew that she was the one. Throughout the case, she kept... me well informed, she always responded to all of my questions (and believe me, I had a ton!) but she was always so kind and responded very quickly. She was honest and made sure to prepare me for all possible outcomes. The day we had our hearing, I was a nervous wreck but she was able to calm my nerves a bit, walk me through the process, and help me feel more prepared. I couldn't have asked for someone better. If you're reading this and still looking for someone to represent you... you can finally stop looking. Ms. Alcalde is exactly what you're looking for and more!
