This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Professional, knowledgable and honest

First and foremost, this is a real review. I did not hire Mr. Ackley. For no other reason than the fact that I have begun to resolve my matter out of court . However, should I need an attorney I would be confident in my choice to hire Mr. Ackley, a.ka. just Randy. Mr. Ackley consulted me on a ...legal real estate matter and unlike my experience with 2 other attorney's involving the same matter... Mr. Ackley was professional, incredibly knowledgeable and responsive. He provided me crystal clear advice on next steps, possible outcomes and responded to my inquiries same day, if not, within the hour. Lastly, I would feel very confident in retaining his services should my situation change and recommend for anyone needing legal representation in Florida to at minimum consult with him.

THE WORST.

I can go into great detail of the mess this lawyer is..... but I'll just some it up in 2 words: the worst. Take your money somewhere else and find someone better! He's filled with BS.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
