Billie Jo Hopwood

Ms. Hopwood represented me in my objection to a proposed relocation by my former spouse with my child. From the top, she was clearly knowledgeable on Florida statutes on the issue, as well as on the case law. What's just as, if not more, important, is that she was able to concisely explain the releva...nt points to me. She was also very good at quickly grasping the particulars of my situation, and listening to and addressing my concerns for my child and myself. She was also considerate in pointing out where I could (safely, with her final review) help my own case out, which of course leaves billable time for where you really need her expertise. She and her paralegal, Teena, never missed a step on the procedural side with hearings and motions and filings and such, which I'm sure could have cost me otherwise. What you might miss with the "years licensed" here is that she was a paralegal for many years before pursuing a law degree, and that additional experience shows. She didn't just guess or rely on memory, but actually documented significant relevant case law (a major one of which was actually an appeal she had won for a previous client). Ultimately, we did get the outcome I thought was best for my child.

Miss Hopwood handled my divorce and the time and care she took to learn the specific details of my case blew me away. This is my first positive experience with an attorney and I couldn't be happier. Miss Hopwood's office was extremely organized and I was always updated on the statue of my case. I rec...ommend her to everyone!!

Billie Jo Hopwood was my divorce lawyer and I couldn't have asked for a better one! She was there everytime I needed her and was able to accommodate my needs and questions no matter what. She was very knowledgeable and made sure she put forth 110% effort to my case. She made me feel like I never had ...to do anything, I kept her up to date with all my information and she did all the work in a very quick and efficient fashion. I highly recommend her and her staff as everyone is always very pleasant and never made me feel unwelcome or unhappy. I know if I ever need anything in the future her and her staff are just a phone call away and they are always so willing to help!

My experience as a client of Attorney Billie Jo Hopwood was wonderful and I highly recommend her services to everyone in the Central Florida area. She was professional and courteous in every interaction which we had, and I could tell that her vast experience with the law is what enabled her to handl...e my legal situation with such ease. Billie Jo earned my trust immediately because she took time to explain to me in detail what my legal options were and the implications of each choice. I look forward to working with her again for any and all legal situations that I encounter in the future, and I highly suggest the same for you as well!

I retained Ms. Hopwood to handle a child custody/child support matter. Ms. Hopwood was very informative during our initial consultation and during every meeting/correspondence thereafter. Ms. Hopwood kept me informed of the process to obtain a judgement in my case including child support and a lega...l name change for my child. It was very apparent at our hearing that Ms.Hopwood was prepared for my hearing and it was obvious she is highly respected by the Court. Ms. Hopwood is very efficient, honest, informative, and well prepared. She is very knowledgeable about the laws and fights for what is in the best interest of the children.
