BEST ATTORNEY EVER!!

Julie is very knowledgeable about Florida law and truly works for you. She is smart, compassionate and wants what's best for you. You will not regret hiring her as your attorney.

Posted by Alison | May 12, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent, Professional, Family-Focused Attorney

I hired Julie to handle my divorce. I spoke to two other attorney's before meeting/hiring Julie and she stood out from the rest. She is realistic in managing expectations, thorough in explaining implications of Florida family law, and helpful in guiding down a path that was ultimately in the best i...nterest of myself and my two children (ages 10 & 12). I would recommend Julie.

Posted by Dennis | May 11, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Mr.

Julie is a highly intelligent, experienced attorney who takes the time to listen to her clients' wishes and expectations. She presents your case in a clear, understandable manner so you can know what to expect and be better prepared for the possibilites. She was extremely sensitive to the emotions ...and feelings that I was experiencing through my divorce and subsequent child custody battles. I highly recommend her if you ever find yourself in a similar legal situation!

Recommendation

Julie and her staff were great during a difficult time. Julie gave me great advice and legal counsel. I have recommend Julie to a friend who is unfortunately getting a divorce.

Posted by Christopher | July 18, 2014 | Divorce & Separation

Awesomeness

I highly recommend Julie she treated me and my family with the highest level of respect and with a caring attitude. Julie wasn't my first choice on the matter because I didn't have her information when the case started so when she became my new lawyer after the case had been going on for 2.5 years it... was like night and day I was so blessed and the second half of the 5 year divorce and custody case went very well and she was able to get me to the happiest time ever in my life. I now can be a dad and move on with my life and start making memories that last forever. Now I will tell everyone that Julie and the practice made me feel super welcome every time I came to her office or over the phone. All and all I give her two thumbs up, 5 stars out of 5 and would recommend her to anyone looking for a good lawyer who will get the job done and done right.

Family lawyer | Jun 08

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Julie DiMaggio, Esq. for approximately 15 years and have referred numerous family law cases to her. What sets Ms. DiMaggio apart from other attorneys in her practice area is her ability to make the client feel like a person, rather than a case number. Ms. DiMaggio is well versed in the complex legal issues that can, and do, arise in family law cases, and has a great support staff ready to handle any questions you may have. I highly recommend Ms. DiMaggio to anyone who is facing a family law issue, whether it involves a custody, child support, or divorce related problem."
