Best Family Lawyer in South Florida

This is the best law firm. This team did a tremendous job of protecting me and my daughter. This was the worst time by far in my life; a complete surprise and not my choice. With that said, one call with Laura and her team made me feel at such peace. It literally felt like they were holding my hand t...hrough the entire process. I am so grateful that she was recommended to me by a friend. I can promise you Laura will do everything she can to keep you informed and updated on your situation. People are amazed when I tell them how short my process was. I mean, it felt like eternity to me but it was settled rather quickly. I wish anyone struggling and needing legal guidance to consider someone who has compassion, empathy, and strong passion for helping others. When you are going through tough times you are not thinking clearly and you need a strong team to guide you through it all.

Nightmare

For five months Miss Blackman represented me in a divorce it was torture dealing with her. For five months I begged her to serve a subpoena and I had to have another attorney make her do just that she was dragging out my divorce so that she could make more money Miss Blackman statements all were... over charges phone calls that she overcharge every single phone call. On my bill she inflated the time which I thought was crazy since I can prove that she did just that. She charge me in five months thousands of dollars for specific emails & my phone calls requesting her to serve one subpoena it was torture and it is criminal !!!!!!!. Worst of all she agreed on an order when I specifically told her not to because she was looking after her best interest. That cost me insane amount of money. When she was only working for me aprox six weeks I realized how bad she was I had to hire a corporate attorney to join my team because Miss Blackman has no clue of what she’s doing. I’m in the process of filling out forms to turn her into the Florida bar and I am hiring an attorney to take legal action

She is the lawyer for you

When you are going through a divorce, it is one of the most emotional states you will be in. The trust you once had with your spouse is now gone and you don't know who to trust. I will tell you who to trust, Laura Blackman. Ms. Blackman took me on as a client and hit the ground running from day on...e. She helped me to trust again. When I was emotionally weak, she was strong. Being a mother herself, she had my child's best interest at heart. Laura is terrific in the courtroom and works well with judges and other attorneys. She has the experience and qualifications to handle your specific legal needs. I cannot thank Laura Blackman enough for helping me get through my divorce. With her support I was able to get through all the hard decisions and come out with my head held high

Very ingenious and creative

When working with the other attorneys, Ms Blackman was very creative and thought outside the box in order to come up w a workable, acceptable compromise in mediation. She was available whenever I needed her and her paralegal was great also.

A total pro!

Ms. Blackman brings more than 25 years of experience to the table when she reps you in a divorce proceeding and it shows. She doesn't waste time. Totally knows how to read her opponent -- tough as nails when she has to be but knows how and when to put on the kid gloves to get what she wants for you. ...I chose the top attorney for my divorce by hiring Laura! She's on top of her game at all times.
