Austin A. Frye

I would highly recommend the law firm of Frye, Fortich, and Garcia, PL. I first became acquainted with the firm when my mother chose them to write her will and to set up her trust. When my mother passed earlier this year, I called the firm and was immediately advised of what things I needed to attend... to right away, and what things could wait until I was ready to proceed. When I was ready to start actively working on settling my mother's affairs, I met in person with Austin Frye and Lauren Garcia. They advised me, listened to my concerns, and helped me begin my work. For the most part, I worked with Lauren Garcia. I found her to be excellent to work with. She was very professional, but also compassionate. She was knowledgeable, and also was able to articulate and explain things that were entirely new to me. She was clearly my advocate, and I trusted her to direct me wisely. As with many families, there were bumps along the way with some members of my family, but every time I thought things were going to go off the rails, Ms. Garcia reassured me that we were doing things correctly, and as my mother wished, and all would be well. She was always right. One of the things I most appreciate about this firm is the communication. Whether I communicated by email or by phone, if I had a question or a concern, I knew without a doubt that I would get a response promptly, often within a few minutes. Whether I was dealing with the people at the front desk, a paralegal or an attorney, I was always treated with the utmost respect. They made me feel like I was their only client. In fact, one time when I called and was told that Ms. Garcia would have to call me back as she was on a call with another client, I joked that sometimes I had to remind myself that I wasn't her only client. When you are trying to do business while in the process of grieving, that really makes a huge difference. I absolutely will use this firm again when I need legal assistance and advice.

After moving to South Florida 15 years ago, it finally came time for us to assemble our Will and Revocable Trust. I asked three friends whom I trusted deeply for their advice on who might be the very best lawyer to help us. One friend was an accountant, and the other two were lawyers themselves. All ...three responded with the same two words – Austin Frye. One of the lawyers insisted..."I could do this for you myself, but if you really want the best, you need to call Austin Frye. He's the right man for this job. You don't want this screwed up, and Austin never screws up." After a few phone calls and just two concise meetings that started on time and ended with a smile and a handshake, this complex work was completed and the papers were signed and executed, without error, without hassle, and without delay. While working with him, it became clear that we were dealing with a man who cares deeply about his clients. He wasn't just doing the job he'd been tasked with. His eyes and ears were wide open, and his vision was nothing short of 360. More than any other legal professional we have ever worked with, Austin has shown that he truly cares about us, not just as clients, but as human beings. He's not just our attorney; after working with him, we consider him our friend, and we trust him implicitly. We'd enthusiastically recommend him to anyone who needs legal help, without hesitation.

I’ve been a client of Austin Frye for several years, having been referred to him when I opened my boutique law firm, after many years at a large firm. Austin counseled me at the outset, and ever since he has been a trusted advisor on matters related to the firm’s operation and growth. Most importan...tly, of course, he has given wise counsel on the firm’s 401k/profit sharing plan. And he has counseled me personally as well on estate and retirement planning matters. What’s extraordinary about Austin, beyond his expertise, credentials and impressive track record, is the personal attention he gives his clients. That's really important, but rarely experienced. Austin and his team of professionals offer wise counsel on estate and retirement planning, and they’re responsive. Put simply, they are very good at what they do, and they care about their clients! You’ll do well to have Austin Frye and his team of professionals in your corner.
