I've been in practice for 25 years. My practice is primarily in the area of family law. I represent clients in divorce, paternity, child support, adoptions, domestic violence and time sharing. Navigating the legal system can be costly, financially and emotionally. I can help you understand your rights, assess your goals, and choose the path that is best for you.
My office also has a low cost project that can help you if your income is limited and your divorce is by agreement.

Effective communicator
Mrs. Verde is very honest with everything related to the law. I do not live in Florida and the time difference from where I live and Florida is 3 hours so calling the office when it was open was difficult for me. I emailed a lot and Mrs. Verde responded, even when it was late in the night. She did a ...

Miss Verde handled my paternity case and I’m very happy with the way it was handled. I sure if the courts weren’t so backed up it would been a faster process but the office was always in contact with me weather it be via email, phone or text.

Wish there was a No star option
Don’t waste your time if you have a pressing issue that needs to be handled or any issue. Communication is horrible. Poor office staff seems to always be clueless of what’s going on. She gives false promises and don’t follow through. I hired this lawyer paid retainer asked for in full. Had my case fo...
Elda, I met with you and explained the complexity of your case and the status of the law and your options. Sadly you waited over a year past the time when you could have had a successful outcome, to seek legal advice. I asked for an address, after all the documents were drafted for you, to effect service. At first you said you did not have one. Later, you asserted you had provided it to me. Then when I asked you for a copy of the email, you admitted that you never sent the requested information. I was willing to proceed with your case once I finally received the information, but you requested a refund (of your nonrefundable retainer) and it was returned in full to you. I wish you the best of luck with your matter.

Terrible representation
At the beginning of my case, I specifically asked to keep my last name and told the paralegal to ensure this would happen. I was assured it would but in the end, my last name was officially changed to my maiden name. He never even sent me the documentation needed for the final hearing. I have tried c...
This client retained our office to prepare a Marital Settlement Agreement because her prior counsel would not prepare one. Her Agreement was promptly prepared and reflected all of the terms she requested be included. I did not prepare her petition for divorce, her prior attorney did. In that petition she asked for her name to be restored. The Judge granted her request and restored her name. Her costly "mistake" was of her own creation. This has been explained to her many times but she has chosen to place the blame on our office. Her number has not been blocked at any point.
"Solangel is an amazing attorney. She was most definitely a formidable opponent and I was extremely impressed with her knowledge and understanding of very complex areas of family law. She aggressively fights for her client's rights and at the same time reaches positive outcomes by providing the highest standard of ethics and professionalism.
