Highly recommend for Family Law Issues

Ron's representation was courteous, understanding and caring. My case was unfortunate due to legal technicalities, but Ron followed through and got the result we wanted. He is very personable and not intimidating as some lawyers can be.

An Incredible Lawyer and Person

Mr. Bornstein took my case in the middle of a very messy custody trial we I thought all hope of having my daughter was lost. He drove out to Okeechobee for over a year. He counseled me thoroughly before each and ever court date. My ex husband had been extremely abusive to me and I was in extreme fea...r of him. Mr. Bornstein went out of his way to shield me for interaction directly with my husband. He was aggressive in the court room getting previous motions overturned in my favor. He was compassionate as a person and he fought and won victory for me and my daughter to be free from all the things my ex husband wanted to have in our divorce( like not being able to move out of the county). He promptly answered my numerous phone call and explained every motion and procedure to me in pain terms I understood. My ex husband was finally convicted in criminal court of child abuse. Mr. Bornstein's hard work and perseverance lead to my daughter and I actually living a full life free from my ex husband. I highly recommend Mr. Bornstein even if the cards are stacked against you he will fight for you.

Ron was referred to us for an Estate claim with the state of Florida. It was quite challenging but with Ron's persistence and professionalism we endured. I would recommend Ron.

Family Crisis Assistance

Beginning in the fall of 2019, our family faced a severe crisis. This situation was complex. It involved counselors, legal choices, health insurance issues and financial challenges. We were getting urgent advice and assistance from many sources. Very difficult and significant decisions had to be ma...de under highly emotional circumstances. We asked a trusted friend to recommend an attorney to help us with the painful steps we needed to take to respond to everything facing our family. Fortunately, she recommended Ron Bornstein. He spent time listening very carefully to every aspect of the situation and gave us difficult but necessary advice. It was hard to accept the things we needed to do. Circumstances forced us to take action, just as he predicted. Once he began to help us, things started down a structured path toward resolution. When we did not follow or understand every part of his guidance, he was very patient and understanding. Eventually he took control of things legally. He exhibited great compassion for our situation. He was flexible and took advantage of opportunities that presented themselves in court. At every step, he made sure that we understood both the uncertainties and probabilities of our legal situation. Eventually our case was settled sensibly and favorably. Afterwards, he continued with precision to be sure that we accomplished all required follow ups and filings. It is hard to express how grateful we are for his assistance. We had never previously faced such a problem. Over a long government career, I worked closely with many able lawyers. But I have never interacted with anyone more sensitive, confident and realistic than Mr. Bornstein. We recommend him unconditionally to anyone else who may need his services.

Family Law

For both divorce and child support/custody issues, call Ron Bornstein. Great services, knowledgeable and tough, very tough ! Something I value highly of Ron Bornstein is the fact that he takes a logical approach to law and doesn’t complicate things unnecessarily. If a matter is complex he is very ca...pable of handling it.
