Superb Attorney, do not hesitate to pay the consultation fee. Worth every penny.
Mr. Klein was recommended to me by a professional he had worked with in the past because the case was THAT difficult. I shopped around for quite a while until I spoke with Mr. Klein. Being cash strapped, I hesitated but went ahead and paid the consultation fee because he is worth a lot more than his fees. I went with my instincts thank God. He and his staff are professional at all times. They responded to my communications in a timely manner. They were on top of the court filings and I got copies of everything with a letter explaining what the document entailed. I was informed of progress every step of the way even during the pandemic. Today was the final hearing and although I have not yet received the Judge's verdict, I had to post a great review regarding Mr. Klein and his staff. If I do not win sole custody it was not because of his performance. He not only knows the law, he has the finesse and tact necessary to deal with difficult cases. I thank God he was my attorney.

Best Family Lawyer in Palm Beach County!
Troy handled my divorce in 2008,, since then he’s been my rock on all Family legal issues from financial matters, parenting plans to custody. He’s totally gets the issues I’m dealing with like no other. His Demeanor is kind and understanding, yet strong and professional. I love everyone in his office, Margo, his assistant has a way of making you feel relaxed and not like a money sign, but a real person. He’s won every case for me and judges seem to really respect him.

Application of Knowledge is KEY
Mr. Klein is a brilliant lawyer. I can not be more satisfied with the services provided to me by the Troy and his team. He handled my marital separation, and parenting time sharing wonderfully. I am so grateful for your expertise, guidance, and professionalism that you provided as we came to resolve the matters of my family situation. I’ve hired lawyers before, but you are truly the best I’ve worked with. Thank you so very much!

Professional, Brilliant, Caring and a Fighter
I am being sued by a very unscrupulous divorce attorney, who is very well connected. It is a case no one in Miami, where the lawsuit has been filed, wanted to touch. Mr. Klein confidentiality took on my case. We’ve had one hearing to date & Mr. Klein was impressively prepared. His knowledge of the law, ability to recall case law and his questioning of witnesses was so impressive even the judge had to praise his talent. We still have ongoing issues in court but I can say with confidence, I do not worry about Mr. Kleins competence and concern in my case. He is fighting for me to have a positive outcome. As my case continues, I will update any further comments. But I am very happy and grateful to be working with Mr. Klein.

Exceptional divorce attorney
Troy is an exceptional family law attorney. After the initial consultation with 3 other attorneys, I went with my gut and chose Troy. Troy made the unfortunate circumstances of my divorce easier to endure. He handled both my divorce & child custody case. It was a very long and messy divorce. While I participated in all decisions arising throughout, I soon learned to trust and rely upon Troy’s recommendations. He won every hearing we had! He is exceptional. He was always available when I needed him, even on the weekends. Troy is compassionate and professional. He fought to get the best results for me and my son. He also put me in touch with a therapist that played a large part in getting custody of my son.

Organized and Well Prepared Aggressive Attorney
It is with extreme pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Mr. Klien who recently handled my Marital Settlement Agreement (MSA). During the process, I found him to be competent and well organized. Mr. Klien during the Court proceedings exhibited his exceptional strength for details, which was beneficial to my case. Further, I was enthralled with Mr. Klien level of professionalism and effectiveness. Mr. Klien kept me updated on the progress and always kept scheduled appointment. He even worked on the weekends to accommodate his client schedule. I certainly appreciated his ability to remain calm in every situation. I can remember telling, Mr. Klien after the final hearing that if we lost; it had nothing to do with his performance. Obviously, we won. Nonetheless, that was how I felt at the time. I was very impressed with the way Mr. Klein handled my (MSA), I highly recommend him as being the attorney that you should choose.

Dedicated, smart and aggressive advocate! Strongly recommended!
I hired Troy after more than eight years of litigation in family court. Throughout those eight years I was represented by AV rated attorneys who charged me tens of thousands but rarely advocated for me and were ineffective. Troy was different. He represented my interests aggressively. He was very effective arguing in court and making complicated legal arguments. He prepares well and researches legal precedent and law in order to effectively advocate. He also represented me in the 4th DCA. He drafted compelling and articulate arguments and was successful in obtaining reversals which saved me over $25,000. His demeanor was always pleasant and he was patient and willing to spend the necessary amount of time to understand my issues. I strongly recommend Troy.

Superb attorney
Mr. Troy Klein is an outstanding lawyer. He's professional and articulate, a tenacious advocate. His understanding of the law is broad and deep. Troy's trial preparation is so thorough. Our dissolution was complex and I'm so grateful that Mr. Klein was able to present the issues and facts, with a strong understanding of the case law, to the Court in such an effective manner. I highly recommend Troy.

Thank you Troy!
Troy recently handled a time sharing and financial agreement for me and I am extremely grateful for his expertise and attention to detail! Troy listens to the client, explains the options, benefits, and potential consequences; Troy guides the client through a particular stressful time in their lives. I will never forget how attentive he was to my case and I will be forever thankful. If you are going through a family/divorce/custody matter, do not retain anyone else... Hire Troy Klein.

Great attorney very knowledgable would highly recommend him to friends and family!
Troy William Klein represented me in court for the first time and very impressed. Troy William Kleinis concise and very powerful with his words leaving no stone unturned. Troy William Klein consistently pushed back on the opposing attorney and did not back down, swaying the Judge to allow certain motions that she wasn’t going to allow earlier. After seeing Troy William Klein in action , I have total confidence my settlement will exceed my expectations. I highly recommend Troy William Klein.

Having someone like Troy on my side gave me such reassurance......
I interviewed ten attorneys and finally found Troy. Troy was the only attorney that saw and acknowledged my perspective instead of looking at my overall situation as a way to make money. From the beginning Troy was very easy to talk to and truly listened to me even when emotions were taking over. Throughout my litigation Troy was always available to talk and helped me through a very emotional time in my life. If you are going through a divorce then you know it is not easy. Having someone like Troy on my side gave me such reassurance to know that my best interests were being looked out for. His understanding of the process and experience is second to none. If you have yet to find an attorney or an attorney that understands you and your perspective, I recommend a consult with Troy. I am confident that you will not regret it.

Integrity, Strategy & Courtroom Presence
Mr. Klein is an extremely knowledgable and experienced litigator. He is strong on strategy and research, ahead of making off the cuff decisions or presumptive recommendations. In the court, he is poised, demonstrates great precision, and exhibits calm and respect that judges appreciate. I consider Troy a friend in addition to being a superior family court attorney.

Knowledgeable, Reliable and Responsive
I hired Troy to handle the appeal that was filed by my ex-wife in addition to a hearing regarding their attempt to collect attorney's fees after they lost the appeal. Troy's rates were very fair, he always took the time to explain my options as well as give an honest opinion as opposed to what would make him the most money. He is one of the good ones, he is honest and most importantly he is the guy you want on your side, I've never seen anyone as prepared as he was inside the courtroom, the other side was never able to stump him.

HIghly Recommend
I received Troy’s name as a referral from someone else when I was facing a contentious divorce. I interviewed three family law attorneys before choosing Troy to represent me and now my history with Troy goes back ten years. I utilized Troy’s expertise through my initial very stressful divorce and then with additional maintenance items related to the divorce over the years. I can’t imagine not having his calm proficient expertise and demeanor available to anyone going through family law issues. Troy is extremely knowledgeable of his field; although a characteristic that I believe really differentiates Troy from other family law attorney’s is that Troy does not instigate and provoke bitter battles between the parties, instead he focuses on what is really in your best interest and important for your wellbeing and the family impacted. He is as aggressive as needed and will not back down or be intimidated by any other party or their attorney’s reputation but he also will not needlessly escalate the litigation in order to increase billing hours. Troy is efficient, timely, well prepared, extremely knowledgeable, strategic and most important has incredible integrity which leads me to believe he certainly can sleep at night. I highly recommend him to anyone facing a very difficult time related to family law issues.

Wonderful Lawyer!
Troy is just wonderful! He handled my husband's divorce a couple of years ago so we chose to keep him on for my husband's custody case against his ex-wife. Troy is very experienced, kind, honest and prepared. He treats us like family; he understands the process we are going through emotionally and was there for us every step of the way. We are so blessed to have found such a kind, competent lawyer. His office staff is also very prepared, organized and there with any questions you may have.

"Troy is a very good divorce attorney. He works hard and is always well-prepared."
Family Attorney | Apr 14
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"Troy Klein is an outstanding family law practitioner. He is not only extremely knowledgeable as to the law and rules of procedure but he is highly sensitive to the attorney-client relationship. While most attorneys can cite statutes or rule numbers, some can not, or will not, communicate with the client to explain the law, explain the position the client has, its strengths and weaknesses, etc.. Also, Troy is "hard core", in the sense that he puts his client's interests ahead of other considerations. Some attorneys are more concerned with "getting along" with their colleagues, and that might be a good approach in terms of getting cooperation from them in that case or a later case. Troy's focus is on the now, on the this client. He is deliberate and contemplative, and his familarity with the rules of evidence is excellent so that if a case goes to trial that either only proper evidence is admitted or an objection is made to preserve the client's position for a possible appeal."
