Very grateful for great work

I had the pleasure of working with Alberto Ayo and his assistant Melissa Robinson. Both were absolutely fantastic. They made everything very easy for me. They were eager to explain things, answer my questions and communicate promptly. They were there for me through every step of the process, with all... necessary instructions and reminders. I would definitely recommend Ayo & Iken services to anyone looking for professional and knowledgeable representation. Mr. Ayo and Melissa, thank you so much!! You are the best! I am forever grateful.

Horrible service !!!!

Not please at all with Mr Ayo . I don't recommend him at all as a lawyer . i paid him and not once did he try to help me with my case , He didn't show up to the court to represent me . Still waiting on my refund!

My family wasted their money.

I was in an 11year relationship, with a business. I had borrowed the money to hire him, figuring that firm partner would be the right decision. He was late to every single meeting, was never able to contact, and left the burden of the case to his hardworking paralegals. I believe there were at le...ast 4 that had come and gone while my case was preparing. Had I not hounded the office, the case would've gone slower. I am now hiring another attorney in his firm for the contempt order after final trial. It is my belief that he barely looked at my 3" thick folder before final trial. I should've not gone with this partner in the first place.

Order against me

My experience with Alberto Ayo was very pleasant and professional. I currently live in Georgia and I was looking for someone to represent me in Tampa, FL for a case that was filed against me. Mr. Ayo was hired based on a recommendation that was given to by an attorney in Georgia. He was extremely ...knowledgeable and very aware of how to defend my case. When going to court he had all the facts lined out and was completely prepared to defend me. My trail was short and sweet leaving me incident and all charges dropped. It was comforting that I had the legal representation that understood what was needed when it was needed and that I was cleared of all accusations against me. I would highly recommend Mr. Ayo and his team to anyone out there.

"I am honored to have been asked to endorse attorney Alberto Ayo. Mr. Ayo is a renowned family law practitioner who has successfully handled numerous high-profile cases and the media frequently seeks his expertise in family law matters. Mr. Ayo is an accomplished, fearless, but fair and compassionate litigator in court and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who has a family law matter to resolve. What impresses me most about Mr. Ayo is his compassionate advocacy for the rights of underprivileged. Mr. Ayo never tolerates domestic or other abuse of the defenseless and I have seen him over and again fight for the rights of children and women who had no one else but him stand up for them."
