I graduated cum laude from the University of South Florida in 1998. I attended Stetson University College of Law, where I was a member of the Stetson Law Review. While earning my Juris Doctor degree, I served as a Federal Judicial Intern for Chief Judge Elizabeth A. Kovachevich of the U.S. Middle District of Florida; as the President of the Student American Bar Association and was appointed as a teaching fellow.
I earned my Juris Doctor degree from Stetson University College of Law in 2001. In my early career, I gained trial experience as a defense attorney, representing defendants and large insurance carriers. I began practicing family and marital law in 2006. I now dedicate the majority of my time to individuals and families going through divorce, litigating custody and financial matters or resolving conflict through mediation or uncontested divorce proceedings. I genuinely care about my clients and their families and I try to handle their personal matters and legal issues with compassion and discretion.
I work with my clients to understand and meet their needs and to navigating delicate family matters. I help my clients to evaluate alternatives to court hearings, such as mediation or negotiated settlement to resolve your family law issues quickly and in the least stressful manner possible. As a Certified Family Law Mediator, I help some parents negotiate settlements of their family law issues, either before or after they've filed for divorce or custody.
I also litigate family law cases where matters are brought to trial before the Court. In extreme situations, I take action to protect our clients or their children, asking the Court to suspend or supervise a parent’s visitation, award temporary alimony and/or child support, order a mental health/drug/alchohol screening or counseling for the other party and/or provide counseling for the children and/or client dealing with damaging and devastating issues. I understand that each family and their issues are unique, so I am able to tailor our firm's legal services to suit individual needs.

The Best
Mrs. Cox took her time to listen and become familiar with my case. She was professional and caring. I feel a sense of optimism and calm that about my long family law case that I haven't felt in years. I would recommend her to anyone faced with a difficult court case.

Excellent Attorney Excellent Team of Professionals
I met with a few divorce attorneys before my employer recommended Loriann Cox. Unlike the other attorneys I met with, Lorie made me feel like she cared about me, my family, and my future. During our first meeting, she took the time to explain different divorce options and what I should expect from ea...

Great divorce lawyer!
Ms Cox was my second lawyer. The first lawyer was absolutely useless. He made me waste a lot of time and charged me for stuff he didn't even worked on. However, Ms Cox has been an amazing lawyer. She was always in charge of teh situation. She informed me throughout the process and I got my divorce on...

Filed a lien against me the day before court
This attorney represented me in my divorce and sent me an invoice on the 8th February, then filed a lien on the 9th February without consulting with me. We went to court and spoke and "hugged each other" goodbye on the 10th February and not once in our multiple conversations did she mention that she ...

These policies are necessary to ensure that our law firm and staff are able to give the best attention and services to our clients. I was glad to hear that you were happy with our legal services, as my staff and I worked very hard to assist you, including taking time during weekends and after hours to address matters for you.
