Diligent, Effective, and Compassionate Counsel During a Difficult Time

Brett Schultz has been incredibly patient, understanding, and diligent throughout my divorce case involving minor children. He has taken the time to truly understand my unique situation, clearly explains all available options, and executes with clarity, focus, and in the best interests of my family. ...Throughout the process, Brett has been highly professional and knowledgeable, and has achieved meaningful, timely results in a very complex case. Most importantly, I can confidently attest that Brett genuinely cares about his clients and fights wholeheartedly for their rights. I am beyond grateful to be represented by him and will confidently continue to recommend him to others seeking compassionate and dedicated legal counsel.

What a Gem

From the moment I met Brett Schultz I knew he was the attorney I needed. He guided me through my divorce from start to finish and even accompanied me to the County Recorders office for my Quit Claim Deed when my divorce was finalized. He made a painful experience less intimidating and I'm forever gra...teful to him.

Compassionate, Detail Oriented, Available, Ethical

After interviewing several Attorneys I had the good fortune of meeting Mr. Schulz via a recommendation from a friend. I immediately realized based on the initial conversation that I would retain Mr. Schulz. He listened without interrupting, he explained the positives and negatives relative to my case... and began the process of developing a strategy for my divorce. The opposing Attorney had excellent credentials from reading her bio, however, this did not deter Brett or cause me any concern. Brett was always available, gave reasonable advice and was very conservative in our response to opposing Council. Because of Brett's advice I was able to settle the matter in mediation rather than having to go through what would have been a costly and emotional Trial. In the legal world time is money, I was very pleased with how fair Brett was with billing. Bottom line he did not nickel and dime me, I felt I was treated fairly when it came to the ultimate outcome of the cost of my divorce. I highly recommend Brett for either a simple or complicated divorce based on his availability, billing and most importantly his ethics. Miami is a tough place to find all three of these very important attributes in an Attorney. If you choose Brett you will be in good hands and your stress level will go down exponentially.

Divorce lawyer

I would recommend Brett Schultz to any of my family members or friends. I had an Attorney before I hired Mr. Schultz and she really didn't do anything for my case. I hired. Mr. Schultz to take over my case, and I am very pleased with the out come of my case, he was able to get me tbe money from my... X that I needed to get a new home. I am living in my home and my X is paying half of it. I really appreciate Mr. Schultz for all his efforts and not giving up on me.
