      We couldn't be grateful enough to the Seward law office.They were able to help us in our time of great need and frustration.Alicia helped us to procure information in a timely manner from difficult tenants and has been very knowledgeable in her field. And has been working our case against a predatory PM office we hired. Thank you Seward Law Group.

      Extremely Impressed!!!

      Posted by

      I contacted Alicia to help with an issue we had with a property we owned. I provided her with the info and she jumped right in. She reviewed all the paperwork, contacted the other attorney and had them back down with their illegal threats. We were very pleased with her response and her reasonable rates. I also recommended Alicia to a close friend who was having issues with her HOA. I was informed that she did an amazing job for her as well.

      I consulted with this attorney online. She gave a quick helpful response. She was educated on the Florida law. The response was clear and direct. She also suggested some options to resolve the situation.

      Retainer lost/no action

      Posted by

      I would not recommend this attorney for any reason. We met and she informed me of the of my rights and laid out a plan of action. I really thought she was trust worthy and would help me so I paid her $2,100.00. I waited for her follow-up on plan of action and to contact me with update. I did not hear from her. I called and was told that she sent out a email. I never got an email. No communication over 3-4 months. I left messages no return calls .5 months I called again because the people that she was to notify stated they did not receive any notification from her. I continued to call finally she return call. She had not done any work on my case. Could not answer any questions I ask as to where she was in handling my case. She was asking me questions she initially asked on our first meeting also asking for information already provided. The conversation ended when she states I needed to pay another $500.00 after having already paid $2100.00 that I got nothing for. I decided it was best to cut my losses and end this relationship. She did nothing, but according to contract I cannot get any portion of my money back. I signed the contract thinking some action would be taken. I got 2 very expensive conversations and this did include the $75.00 I paid for initial consultation. This was a very costly learning experience for me.

      Lack of communication and no action in 6 months

      Posted by

      We were impress during the initial consultation therefore we hired Ms Seward to deal with a non disclosure issue. We paid the retainer, April 30, provided her with all our documentation, and she was going to do some discovery work (request board meeting minutes). Despite two emails from us, 3 months went by with not one communication. She actually was snippy with us when we finally spoke to her. At which time we asked her to send a demand letter as she assured us we were in the right on the disclosure. She promised the letter would go out in a week. That was Mid July. No letter, early September we began sending emails demanding a status, the assistant replied "its on her to do list". Again mid September we then demanded the letter be send by month end. The last week in September we called daily, left message and wrote emails, no one reached out. I called from blocked number and the assistant promised someone would call me by Wednesday SEPTEMBER 25. We finally send an email firing her on that Thursday September 26. Funny thing she actually replied in two hrs and the next day tried to say we had agreed on month end. We got nothing from her, she blamed her staff and us, the client, for her lack of communication and professionalism. DO NOT HIRE MS SEWARD FOR ANYTHING. She should be reprimanded by her peers for her lack of professionalism.

      Consult Client

      Posted by

      I wish I could give ZERO stars. I paid for a consultation fee and was told by Ms. Seward to call back in 45 days to go forward with collecting my judgment, which I did. I called AND emailed for two weeks with NO RESPONSE then finally received an email where she told me because this is her firm, she can do what she sees fit, and would not refund me my consultation fee. Horrible customer service, and absolutely no professionalism.

      Unprofessional conduct from an Attorney

      Posted by

      I hired Alicia Seward on October 16 to represent my HOA in a pending lawsuit. She complained about phone calls and emails to her office asking her for case status updates, although I was not getting any information or updates from her. I gave her instruction and she ignores it, then she quit giving me no notice after I had a question on her Invoice. She lacks experience and professionalism and I would most definitely not recommend her to anyone.

      Very unprofessional

      Posted by

      We hired Alicia for our case, and Alicia showed up to our mediation completely unprepared. She never filed an amendment like she said she was going to and never communicated with us on the status of our court date causing us to miss it. Then instead of fixing it, she withdrew from the case. We lost a lot of time and money hiring Alicia. I do not recommend her.

      Do not hire

      Posted by

      Attorney Alicia Regina Seward is one of the worst. I hired her on 5/31/17 for an eviction case, a tentant who was beyond on rent payments. That same day she got the full payment her attorney fee of $750.00 plus the filing fee which was around $300.00. I called her office back several times, three hour later to notify her the tenant called me and we resolved the issue,but no respond. When she finally got back to me after via email and alot of calls. She refunded me the filing fee then told me in 15 to 30 days, she has to review what her assistance work on, before she can refund me the attorney fee. She also mentioned to me in her hiring docket there's a no refund stated in the docket, which was not in bold letters and before her assistance sent the docket. I Regina Seward was there any thing in the docket I should be aware of, she said no. On 7/7/17 she mailed me statement, breaking down the cost. Which add up for attorney fees $375.00 for thrée hours, mind you! On the day I hired her, she got the full payments attorney fee and filing fee, three hour later I called to tell her everything was resolved and her service wasn't required anymore. Now two months have pass and I still haven't received half of the attorney fee, which was stated due to me on the statement she mail to me.
