Amazing person and attorney

Hollis is a brilliant and experienced attorney who will fight diligently for you and your children. Unlike others, she truly cares about her clients and is very compassionate. We have a terrible judicial system so it’s crucial to find someone knowledgeable and I’m glad I found Hollis to be ...on my side. Thank you Hollis for helping us!

Best decision I made

Working with Hollis Mandel was the best decision I ever made. From our first conversation, it was clear that she is not only highly efficient and knowledgeable in her field but also genuinely compassionate and deeply committed to her clients. Her loyalty and dedication stood out every step of the way...—she treated my case with the importance and care it deserved, and I always felt like I was in capable, trustworthy hands. Hollis combines sharp legal expertise with a kind, reassuring presence, which made a stressful process much more manageable. She was always responsive, thorough, and honest, and she fought for the best outcome with integrity and professionalism. I truly cannot recommend her highly enough

Miracle Worker

Hollis was amazing. After years of back and forth she was able to get my case transfered to my county. This has saved so much countless back and forth. Thank you!

Best team in Broward County!

Hollis Mandell is the most amazing attorney in Broward County hands down. She has helped me every step of my divorce and has been there for support to guide me in the right direction always. Her paralegal is outstanding and has kept me calm throughout the entire process of my case. I am forever grate...ful to Ms. Mandell and her team.

Excellent caring effective legal representation

Hollis Mandell has represented me through a highly litigated 2 year long custody court battle with an emotionally abusive narcissist with his mommy’s credit card. She has stood by me and supported and defended me when the opposing counsel tried to bully me and was even homophobic to my partner on the... stand. She has been my protector against a wicked opposing team and a difficult court system in a case that would have eaten me alive without her. Hollis is a brilliant lawyer with a background in social work and her passion for protecting women and families shows every time I speak with her. Hollis has been my rock and she has saved my family, my children especially from being bullied by a man with no regard for the legal system. I had countless consultations with legal teams in my small county and in surrounding cities, but when I did my research on Hollis Mandell and told her my story I knew she was the one I needed on my team throughout this. With her guidance I went from a frightened, battered woman trying to give my kids a better life to a successful strong mother who will not settle for anything less for my children. I am so incredibly grateful for her time and guidance over the years. Her legal team has been supportive and communicative as well, answering countless texts, emails as well as sorting through my mountains of photos, texts and various evidence. If you’re in a difficult custody or divorce situation this is the team you want fighting for you. Hollis Mandell knows exactly when to fight for what is right and when and how to finesse a mediation with people who do not want to mediate. I was overwhelmed and tempted to give up on certain points but she gave me faith and made sure my family had the fair outcome we deserve. She is pleasant to be around in and out of the court room but she will not let her clients be bullied and she does not settle for less than what is right. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ For sure!
