Blair Henry Chan III

Blair's approach is very straight forward. I retained him for an uncontested divorce. He was very responsive and knowledgable about the specific questions I had. I got the sense early on that Blair was very honest and straight forward, and his approach made me feel like we were sticking to the issues... which helped us avoid increased costs. The resulting MSA he crafted was prepared in 48 hours and contained provisions I hadn't even thought about such as tax implications of alimony etc. His office is incredibly responsive from start to finish-same day. His assistant as well is very detailed and professional, she even provided my info on where to park for the final hearing. I was very pleased with the representation I received for the duration of my case. Blair's office made an unpleasant situation tolerable.

In my situation, my wife is mentally ill. When I brought her to a doctor, she filed for divorce because: "I no longer understood her". Several series of events followed, and included: a lifetime violent restraining order against my wife from a dance studio (she stalked and physically threaten...ed them), my children's private school demanding an evaluation (first of 2 incidents), and a contempt of court charge for vaccinating my children; despite Florida law requiring the vaccinations and no legitimate exemption, etc. Additionally, I was defamed with a "restraining order" filed by my wife on December 17th, which was fortunately denied by the judge (which would have prevented me from seeing my children on Christmas), and an "unfounded battery report", shortly thereafter. Mental illness, alcoholism and drug addition are extremely complicated proceedings, so I can't advocate Blair enough... I have 100% custody/time sharing of my children with no time sharing or visitation - unless the mother seeks the help required by the courts. I have exclusivity of the house to raise my children. Particularly, if you are dealing with this type of dilemma, there is no better - we NEVER lost a round in court...

Highly recommend Blair. He successfully negotiated for me at mediation, which resulted in lower child care payments for me. He also negotiated an agreement, in my favor, out of court when my ex-spouse and her husband verbally assaulted me. He is always there when I need him and promptly responds to m...y emails or phone inquiries, even on weekends. He is a straight shooter and will tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear.

Blair was very helpful walking me through the whole process of a very difficult divorce. We were married 20 years and have a child with severe disabilities and Blair was conscientious of my needs also regarding my two younger children who had lost their grandfather that lived with us for ten years... and the loss of their parents marriage. He was accessible, empathetic and resourceful. I am pleased I was able to work with Blair under difficult circumstances! Highly recommend Blair; not just an attorney; a family man and someone who cares.
