    Review Carlos Ramirez

    Child Protective Investigation

    Posted by

    My case involved a CPI investigation that a therapist reported against me. My son is autistic. I felt vulnerable and terrified. The report was found to be unfounded. Mr. Ramirez was kind and patient with me, as I was understandably very emotional. He represented me every step of the process. I called him the moment two sheriffs and the CPI worker arrived at my home. He remained on speakerphone, to ensure none of my rights as a parent or my children's rights were violated. He assured me what would happen and what to not allow to happen. The case was soon thereafter closed. Mr. Ramirez's handling of my case inspired me to go to law school to help other families. One day soon I will be in a profession to represent and help others in the same or similar situations.

    Mr Carlos Ramirez

    Posted by

    Mr. Ramirez is an outstanding person and an excellent levelheaded lawyer with years of experience. His team is equally fantastic. Maria and Teresa are wonderful caring human beings. Saved me a fortune and tolerated my frustration. Always returned my calls immediately and emails. He’s honest and a straight shooter. Even gave me free advice for my future. I love the man.

    Great Lawyer

    Posted by

    I contacted Carlos after reviewing a few lawyers that practice Family/Dependency law. After reaching out to his staff, they quickly mobilized to help support me even at very short notice. Carlos was quickly able to pull from his knowledge to explain to me legal processes involved and different options I could take. Although the case was extremely emotional and troublesome to me and my family, Carlos was compassionate but also logically explained how best proceed. Carlos also took time to help save money and reduce my total cost for the case. In the end, with his help, we are on the right track to put this situation behind us. If anyone is looking for a lawyer that understands Dependency and Family law, specifically when dealing with CPS, Carlos would be a great choice.

    Collaborative Divorce

    Posted by

    I was extremely impressed by Carlos and his team. He did a great job explaining the collaborative divorce process. He was also very flexible to my approach for preparing financial data and reviewing legal documents, which provided some savings on legal fees. Finally, he worked well with the other attorney and CPA to keep the process moving forward.

    Above and beyond! I know God allows circumstances in life to happen for a mayor reason and He is in charge to put the right people in your path that will drive you to the destination you are meant to go to. God brought me to Lawyer Carlos, a very experienced and knowledgeable lawyer in the field. His great team, experienced Paralegal, Teresa, and his very diligent Legal Assistant, Maria. A great team that I highly recommend. Besides great knowledge in the field, I felt protected by them as they fought for my rights in every single way. Teresa and Maria made me feel like Family. May God keep blessing them in every single way. Thank you!

    Lic. Carlos Ramírez, Teresa y Maria son un equipo Asombro, servicial, amables, tratando al Cliente con mucho respeto y cuidado... Me acompañaron en todo el proceso (caso) con PROFESIONALISMO Y DISPONIBILIDAD (24/7), manteniéndome informada y a su vez orientada en cada una de mis inquietudes; resolviendo mi caso de manera oportuna, para mi total satisfacción. Lo otro para tener en cuenta, que resalta en su equipo, que hablan INGLÉS Y ESPAÑOL con fluidez, lo cual fue conveniente. Recomendaría al Lic. CARLOS RAMIREZ, el 100%, SU PROFESIONALISMO, sus 30 AñOS DE EXPERIENCIA LEGAL, ÉTICA Y MORAL, se vieron reflejados en el desarrollo de mi caso !!!

    Top Notch & Professional Attorney and Firm Staff

    Posted by

    Throughout the most difficult 2 years of my life, Carlos Ramirez and his staff provided comfort and peace of mind throughout the duration of my difficult child custody case (involving an extremely unprofessional & overwhelming OPPOSING counsel) by handing it with the UTMOST professionalism. Mr. Ramirez and his paralegal truly understand the law and served as the voices of reason in the most emotional and frustrating of times I experienced, which only provided reassurance and eased my mind knowing that myself and my child were in the best of hands. I could not have asked for a better outcome to my case and was constantly impressed by how the firm operates in an organized, timely, patient, and extremely communicative manner. No wonder why Carlos Ramirez is so well-respected in the Tampa Bay and surrounding areas. I highly recommend consulting/hiring him for your legal needs!

    You can't ask for a more understanding attorney and staff. Maria & Teresa are AMAZING!!!! They make you feel as if you're communicating with family and friends. Awesome firm all across the board. Mr. Ramirez and his team gave me security and results promised. They answered all of my questions, I never felt ignored or put off to the side. I strongly recommend this firm to anyone who is in need of a family law attorney.

    #1 Family Law Attorney

    Posted by

    Carlos, Teresa and Maria are such amazing individuals. Imagine walking into a legal office and feeling like your the million dollar client even when your not. They treat your case as their own and are invested in making sure not only you as the client understand your case but also that they are not wasting money on unnecessary expenses to move the case along. While you as the client may become emotional, Carlos and Terea will ensure your case is strategically being handled from all aspects to ensure they obtain the most optimum result in your case. If your unsure who to hire to handle your garnishment case or modification for child support involving social security disability and VA compensation or frankly any family law case I cannot say it enough but to go with Carlos.

I highly recommend the Ramirez law firm.
