Excellent experience and extremely knowledgeable.

Mr. Pita and the team helped me during the most traumatic time of my life. He was very detailed and asked questions I didn't think of. This was my first time having to use legal services and the process was absolutely amazing. He is truly the best person to get things done. I know lawyers can be extr...emely busy, however, I always felt they had my best interest at heart. Thank you for all your help!

Dream Team

Skip's professionalism knows no bounds. He is a master at his craft. The office runs like a well-oiled machine. Calls are returned and questions answered. Skip is not afraid to your case to court if warranted. My case was handled with grace. I highly recommend him!!!!!!!!!

Amazing Attorney

What a remarkable team! I had been turned down by 2 other law firms for my husband’s wrongful death case and from the moment I had my consultation with Skip, there were no hesitation – from either of us. He was well informed of the laws surrounding my case and thoroughly explained the process to me; ...it was from there on that I was confident he and his team would represent me well. I was absolutely right! Within 5 MONTHS my case was SETTLED and for the MAXIMUM amount allowed by law. Skip and his team were always available to take my call, they gathered and reviewed my documents and evidence quickly, and were fast in taking action for filings and responses. They were also genuinely compassionate and held my hand through the entire process for what was a very emotional and difficult time in my life. I would highly recommend Skip Pita and I couldn’t be more thankful to have had him fighting on my behalf.

Top notch attorney. The Elite team

Mr. Pita and his team are what I would call the elite team of attorneys of all South Florida and perhaps all the state. His firm is one of the rare firms that are on top of your case at all times. Every single time I reached out to his office, they were always available and ready to give me updates.... The level of professionalism his team had at all times is extremely rare these days, not to mention the fact that he delivered what he promised with my case. I am beyond happy with the outcome and not only highly recommend Pita Weber and Del Prado firm for the best outcome, but he and his team have become my go to attorney without a doubt. He earned a 10 star ⭐️ out of 5 with blind eyes in my opinión.

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.
