Review Blair Henry Chan III

Top-notch family law attorney

5.0 stars

I have had to use Blair's services over that past 3 years and he has represented me with integrity, intelligence, and composure throughout the entire process. He has the resources and experience to guide you through the entire process and has many professional contacts who hold him in high regard. Even though my certain situation was highly emotional and dramatic, Blair was able to keep a level head and manage expectations, offering me clear choices and describing in detail what each meant. I got everything I needed from my case and I have Blair to thank.

found Blair Chan when searching for a Board Certified Marital and Family Law Attorney in Tampa. After extensive research I selected his firm and never regretted my decision. I found him to be professional, responsive, intelligent and well informed. Stephanie, his paralegal, was equally as professional and responsive during the time I was a client. I was kept informed during every step in the divorce process. I highly recommend Blair Chan to anyone in need of an experienced Family Law Attorney.

Blair is a top notch family lawyer and I highly recommend him. I hired Blair after working with another divorce lawyer in Tampa who was happy to take my retainer and do as little work on my case as possible. In contrast, Blair was a top-notch communicator, keeping me in the loop on everything relevant to my case. He was always fully prepared on my case and made me feel like a top priority...which isn't always the case with many other lawyers in Tampa. His rates are extremely fair, especially given his expertise and knowledge. His working style is calm, cool and collected. His staff was extremely responsive and great to work with. I would not hesitate to hire Blair again for any future legal needs in the family law realm. He's the best family lawyer in Tampa.

Blair handled my case with compassion and gave me clear expectations on the results of my case. He would suggest possible paths of action that didn't necessarily increase his bottom line which I appreciated. Ultimately his guidance kept me out of trouble and my family back together. His office was extremely responsive in times of emergency and otherwise. Although not inexpensive, Blair is fair and accommodating with billing. You will not find a more straightforward and honest attorney and I highly recommend him.

Blair was recommended to me by a friend of friend for his diligence and compassion. During an initial phone consultation, he explained the legal process I was trying to pursue and gave me options on how he could assist. Throughout the entire process he and his office were in constant communication with me. While I do not wish anyone to require an attorney's services, I would recommend Blair immediately based on my experience.

Blair Chan's firm is, by far, second to none. Not only was he very knowledgeable in the matters of divorce proceedings, but he is also caring and sensitive to your needs. His office was extremely professional and always returned emails in a timely manner or would take the time to make a call if the matter was pressing. Blair and team ensured completion of important documents by both parties. During my mediation, he made sure that I would the outcome would yield what was in my best interest and fair. He has years of experience and made the "rookie" lawyer consider his career choice. Blair was referred to me by a really good friend and I would recommend him to anyone that need this type of service. I was able to obtain my divorce in less than six months! If you are looking to have a strong, intelligent, and professional firm represent you, then Blair Chan's firm is the perfect choice.

I am a lawyer myself, so when I needed to hire a lawyer for my divorce I wanted the best. I spoke with several lawyers, but Blair's calm presence and high level experience swayed me to hire him. It ended up being a great decision as he worked efficiently to achieve a favorable outcome. If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of needing a divorce lawyer, I highly recommend Mr. Chan.
