Ms. Regina Drennan guided us through the seamless sale of our parent's home. This was completely new to us having lost both parents within three years, but she consulted and provided us with the best options. Of course we had questions, but Ms. Drennan answered each one promptly and professionally. We would recommend Ms. Drennan to anyone needing guidance through the probate process. She was awesome and far exceeded our expectations. We will be seeking her advice for future concerns as well.
When my ex- husband (my son’s father) passed away, I had no idea what to do. Since our son was a minor, I had to step in and Regina was there every step of the way - helping to set up his court-ordered guardian account, his annual reporting, and eventually, the final legal steps when he turned eighteen. I don’t know what I would have done without her! She helped me with my will as well, and I turn to her when I need legal guidance. She knows her stuff!
Attorney Regina Drennan has been involved in probate and guardianship in a number of roles. She has been a caregiver, advocate, and attorney. Through these experiences, she has firsthand knowledge of the challenges faced by the family of an incapacitated or disabled person and uses that knowledge to assist her client-families in a compassionate and understanding matter.
Ms. Drennan attended St. John’s University in Jamaica, NY where she received a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting. After caring full time for her two sons, she decided to return to law school in order to allow her to provide services to those who are dealing with children with special needs, families with those who need assistance with a loved one who is incapacitated and caregivers who are working with incapacitated individuals.
After graduating from St. Thomas University Law School in Miami Gardens, FL, Ms. Drennan opened her own law firm in Fort Lauderdale, FL with a primary focus in Elder Law, Guardianship, Probate Administration and Estate Planning.
Ms. Drennan has volunteered as an Educational Surrogate in the Broward Public Schools. In this capacity she represented the rights of foster children in the IEP (Individual Educational Plan) process in order to help determine the best educational plan for these children who have learning challenges. She also has experience with children who have been diagnosed with Asperger’s, Autism Spectrum Disorder and other developmental disabilities. Ms. Drennan has experience with the McKay Scholarship for children with disabilities and has assembled a wonderful group of associates and professionals to assist in the planning and care of those with disabilities.
Ms. Drennan was appointed by Broward County Probate Judge Speiser as a Guardian ad Litem on a wrongful death case Jason Turchin’s office was handling. She eventually merged her practice into his, and their team continues to advocate for their clients.

Excellent Legal Services
Attorney Regina was outstanding! After long hours of tumultuous web searching, she offered an entire reasonable service package for our dire circumstances. The moment we spoke with her, she exceeded beyond our expectations without no hesitations or complaints and thoroughly explained the best course of action. With time being of the essence, she executed a vast task of necessary legal objectives with her exceptional Team. She diligently served as a conduit advocate and instantly removed the weight off our shoulders. Regina is compassionate, patient, highly knowledgeable and a well-rounded professional readily available, and listened to our unsettling concerns. She never disappointed us and always kept us timely abreast and transparent all the way throughout this rigorous process. We highly recommend her as a well experienced top asset in the legal profession.

Ms Drennan advised us in matters concerning our elderly mother. Her insight helped us make some critical decisions regarding her estate. Her priority was to have the best interests of our mother considered, which we appreciated. Every senior should have someone like Ms. Drennan protecting their rights.
