Valued colleague and trusted counsel on my own family law matter...

As a trusts and estates attorney AND former client, I have worked together with Jeff Weissman on numerous occasions. I am always impressed by Jeff’s compassion, intelligence, responsiveness and professionalism. Jeff’s knowledge and expertise in sophisticated family law matters is top notch. In addi...tion, Jeff truly listens to his clients, making them feel supported and understood. He accurately assesses their needs and helps them to make decisions that are in their best interests, as well as the best interests of their children. Jeff is respected by his peers and judges, having a reputation for zealously representing his clients while maintaining an ethical practice. Each of my clients who has worked with Jeff has thanked me for the recommendation. It is my strong belief that any individual wanting excellent representation in the area of family law should contact Jeff Weissman.

Jeff Weissman is simply, hands down, the most practical, creative and passionate matrimonial attorney in South Florida. He fights for his clients like they are his family but takes a very pragmatic approach to every case. He would rather settle than litigate, and he knows how to work with his adver...saries to get the job done for his clients.

Jeff gave excellent advice that was well researched...

I first came to meet Jeff Weissman when I decided to divorced my wife back in 2006. Despite it being basically amicable, there were complexities that made for some tense times. Throughout the 18 months of negotiations, Jeff remained calm and gave excellent advice that was well researched, especially ...since a percentage of assets were held overseas. He was diligent and reached an excellent settlement that was fair to both parties, or deemed fair as much as it can be in a divorce. My ex wife harbored no ill feelings towards him. He successfully handled the opposing attorney in both a competent and efficient way. I was a partner at one of the major world accounting firms and have dealt with attorneys at top levels. Jeff compared most favorably with many of those I worked with.

Perfect balance of a hard-nosed litigator and a pragmatic negotiator

As a sports agent, my clients turn to me as their “go-to” guy to help them resolve problems. Often times these problems require the services of an attorney. One attorney who has delivered each and every time is Jeff Weissman. It is rare to find a family lawyer who is as effective as Jeff. He i...s the perfect balance of a hard-nosed litigator and a pragmatic negotiator. Family law matters are very difficult to navigate because of the added emotional stress on the client. Jeff is skilled at not only handling the matter at hand, but also at helping clients understand the legal strategy he is using and why. You cannot underestimate the importance of this skill. Where many competent lawyers fall short is keeping the client informed and engaged throughout every step of the case. Jeff not only has gotten terrific results for my clients but has done so in a way that provides closure for them. Many other family lawyers will fight opposing counsel at every step of the way to appear as a strong fighter for their client. The client ends up in a long, protracted and emotionally unhealthy battle that leads to much higher legal fees and irreparable damage to the family. Do not confuse kindness with weakness. Jeff is not worried about appearances…only results. He is respected amongst his peers, judges and mediators for his professionalism. Simply put, he is my “go-to” guy.

Jeff recently represented me during a painful divorce proceeding admirably. I chose your firm because of the strategic, professional approach I felt would be taken, in the end that is the exact approach that was taken. Jeff was skillful in staying out of any petty drama and always dealt from a posi...tion of strength and leverage while minimizing exposure. Moreover, Jeff became a trusted personal friend during and remains after the process ended.
