I won 100% custody of my child

Thanks to Hollis Mandell I won custody of my 8 yr. old child which is not easy for a man in FL. She is an excellent family law attorney who also has a Masters in Social Work. Obviously I am extremely happy with the services that she and her staff provided Thanks Hollis & Nichole for being there whe...never I had an issue along the way.

Only lawyer I've ever used, only lawyer I would use

In 2015 I got myself into a bit of legal trouble. This was the first time I'd experienced the legal system and had to embark on hiring counsel. After talking to a few attorneys that didnt seem like I was anything other then a potential payday I met with Hollis and Nichole at my father's recommendatio...n (he used her previously in a criminal defense case which she won after getting his probation officer to admit she lied about my father's supposed violation despite a previous attorney telling him it was hopeless). Immediately she gave me the vibe that I was talking to a compassionate human being as opposed to an attorney. Hollis and her team were understanding, patient and reachable which is more then I can say for myself during some of those stressful times. People were shocked when my case went as positively as it did. Even more then the outcome I appreciate her being real with me. Never told me what I wanted to hear nor did she use fear tactics to have an excuse to make the case more profitable for her. She did her job and did it damn well. I appreciate her and Nichole greatly. They get my highest recommendation for anybody seeking legal aid.

Awesome family law attorney

I hired Hollis E Mandell Esq to represent me in an out of state custody battle with my ex husband. He had attained a pick up order from a Pennsylvania Court which granted him full custody when I "absconded" the mutual residence with our daughter. Long story short, he ended up moving to Florida with o...ur daughter to continue to live off me. Four months into his move to Florida he began to ask me to do things that were against my moral compass and I filed for divorce two months later. Furious, my ex applied and was granted ANOTHER pick up order, took my daughter from me and moved to NYC. I was DEVASTATED!! Hollis was able to get the same judge that signed his pick up order to sign mine. I flew to N.Y. and picked up my baby. Fast forward 2 months later, we came in front of the Judge, Hollis shot down every single allegation they attempted to slander me with and barred the Judge from ruling in my case since the other side did not file a relocation order. Hollis was well versed w her PKA laws which allowed us to skip all of the Court drama and settle our case with a mediator. Moral of the story is Hollis is an excellent attorney. Her and her paralegal Nicole make an excellent team and together, they got me my baby back!!! I will forever be greatful for all of their hard work and will always sing praise to the Law Office of Hollis E Mandell.

Caring, thorough, and strives for best results

Hollis has been a great attorney for my last case. Not only does she handle your legal case, but what was more IMPORTANT to me was that she alleviated my stress level. If you want a great attorney that not only handles business, but also makes you feel comfortable and collective, I recommend her . ... She will fight for you and contributes great results because she knows the law and she is very personal with great communication. Even after my case was closed, any questions or concerns I had were taken care of. I write this review out of my honest opinion, I give credit when credit is due. I give her an A+

AWESOME LAWYER WHO REALLY HAS A HEART

Words can not express the work this women did to protect my son from my abusive husband. She really worked hard and got all the facts to make sure my son and me were taken care of. After 3 lawyers and 3 years of going threw my divorce she stepped in and took care of us. he really cares about the chil...dren and there welfare. She is not just someone who saved my sons life and myself but I now consider her family. Love Love her. I would recommend her highly.
