Ms Waters

I hired attorney Payne to take care of some legal matters for me. He was very professional and fought hard for my case in the court room and we got the results we wanted and won my case. I highly recommend attorney Payne he will fight for you and get the end results you wants. I can’t say enough abou...t his work. Thank you attorney Justine Payne for you hard work.

Excellent Attorney!

I retained Mr. Payne to defend a foreclosure suit. I did not think that there was much hope for my defense, but he indicated otherwise. He successfully defended my suit and I have been able to keep my property. He and his staff greatly exceeded my expectations. Since then, I have hired him to han...dle other matters. He is one of the most brilliant people that I know. I highly recommend Mr. Payne.

Peace of mind

I would consider Justin Payne family. I have been with him since January 2007. I hold a mortgage that had to go into foreclosure. I was at my wits end. He explained the situation telling me what we had to do and now I have my mind back. He also took over dealing with the mortgage to reduce my s...tress. He always kept me informed of the new changes that has taken place. I would recommend Justin to any of my friends and family. He is genuine attorney who shows compassion to his clients.

My florida home

I loretta do not live in florida but owned a house there . Do to unfortunate circumstances I had to give up my home. Mr. Payne was sympathetic to my situation and helped me solve my problem. I foreclosed on my home which I loved! Mr. Payne along with his staff kept me updated throw my hardship and a...lways kept me positive. He is all of the above (trustworthy, knowledgeable etc..).

fantastic attorney

I retained Mr. Payne in 2009 to handle my foreclosure. He uncovered all kinds of illegal items in my note. My foreclosure took 6 years, by design, and one of the plaintiffs had to pay me! He was diligent and relieved all my worries. I did nothing and lived stress free through the whole process. I... highly recommend Mr. Payne.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
