Very knowledgeable, saved estate thousands of dollars

Mr. Black handled an estate case where I served as P.R. It lasted almost 12 years, because of multiple beneficiaries with their own attorneys, and many complexities. There are too few probate judges in Miami so all cases take a long time. Mr. Black is very knowledgeable about FL statutes and case law... and was able to dismiss tens of thousands of charges from unscrupulous and incompetent creditors. His hourly rate is quite reasonable considering his skill level and I feel that he didn't bill for many hours that he spent. He has a good memory, a good demeanor, and professional appearance.

Seek Another Attorney!!! <<< Horrible Experience >>>

<<< DO NOT USE >>> Absolute horrible experience. After paying over $32,000 for services, he never show up to the Final Hearing and the judge gave me a terrible ruling. Since I wasn’t aware of the hearing, I didn’t have ability to appeal. Then, five months later he finally drafted a Motion for Modifi...cation which he said that he filed. HE DIDN’T, and 14 months later I had to file it and it wasn’t a correctly written motion which failed in court. Also, he doesn’t respond and avoids you. Seek another attorney! I have reported him to the Florida Bar and a pending case against him is in the process.
