Exemplary Defense Services, Thank You Melanie!!

I was a client of Melanie's and in my opinion she is the Best Criminal Defense Attorney's in the State of Florida!! She was very professional, respectful, easy to communicate with, polite and courteous with a great sense of humor. Melanie was direct in explaining my case and did not "sugarcoat" a...ny of it. She was very patient, consistent, informative and her dedication was second to none. Melanie did an excellent job in defending my case in court. I hope I never need an Attorney again, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to hire Ms. Malave again!! I would highly recommend Melanie to anyone who needs competent legal representation. Thank You again Melanie!!

Amazing Professional!

Melanie is truly amazing and helpful. She is the only lawyer I have ever dealt with that responds in a timely manner. She is helping both my friend in I in sealing our cases. From our initial consultation to finalizing our cases she has always followed up the same day to questions and kept us up to d...ate. I wish I had found Melanie earlier as she will be the only legal Professional I ever deal with again. I can not say enough good things about Melanie and how much she has helped me.

  • 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.
