Julia Best Chase

Julia is great. She helped me walk through a hard, confusing, frustrating process that I wanted no part of. However she explained the process well, walked through step by step, listened to complaints, frustrations, crazy questions and was very available, patient, calm (when I was not), and fair. I pray you don't have to go through this process, however, if regrettably you do, Julia will work for you in a professional, courteous, timely, constructive way.

It was difficult going through my case during COVID but all in all she was awesome during mediation and lead me through the whole process with ease.

I appreciated Julia’s direct and candid responses. Her ‘no nonsense’, professional and honest approach was refreshing. She was accessible and provided just enough’hand holding’ when I needed it. She was patient in explaining the legal step-by-step process of divorce and did a fabulous job of explaining the various legal jargon in a man on the street way!

Julia is very straight forward, honest and fierce. She handled my case with professional courtesy, superb knowledge and confidence. She worked around my erratic work schedule and kept me informed all the way. Her office staff is efficient and compassionate. I felt comfortable that my best interest was at the forefront at all times. Thank you Julia and team for giving me my life back and an outlook to a brilliant future.

Julia Chase Best helped me through a very difficult time in my life. When I first came to her I was indecisive on what course of action and what alternatives were available to protect my assets and earnings as well as my marriage. She suggested a post nuptial that would establish guidelines while we worked on our problems. Unfortunately, after 5 years, I came back to seek a final divorce. She not only walked me through the many steps of the divorce, but she also provided a moral compass, when my feelings got in the way of progress. She was patient and made herself available when I needed guidance or a listening ear as I processed the failed marriage. Her expertise and knowledge of the complex legal issues helped me to see the bigger picture and kept me calm during the many steps needed to accomplish my goals. She was not only my legal counsel, she became my trusted confidant. I am eternally grateful.

Choosing Julia was the best decision after getting served my injunction. I was overwhelmed with what could happen if this wasn't dismissed and her compassion for my situation is something you can't buy. Most importantly, she is an experienced, organized, dedicated, honest, and meticulous lawyer. Julia explained the entire processes of trial and prepared me well for the big day. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer!

Julia was so skilled in her expertise in helping my ex wife and I come to a fair and acceptul resolution of our marriage . She performed an in depth financial analysis to quide us on what would be fair . She reviewed our original draft line by line to make sure there were no errors or loopeholes . Finally her advice helped us resolve the dissolution of our marriage in record time while not sacrificing attention to detail . I highly recommend her helping you throw a difficult time .

In the course of my 3 year divorce, I have had the opportunity to have working relationships with quite a few law firms in the Tampa Bay area. I have had to go to court so often to defend myself against motions my ex-wife filed that , as a lay person, I probably have more court exposure than some lawyers do. You know you've spent too much time in hearings when you've gone to the top floor of the court house in downtown Tampa during recesses and you've been able to look at all the portraits of all the judges who ever served in Hillsborough county. Some of the lawyers I've dealt with were utter scum, some just wanted to suck you dry by keeping the case alive just to get the cash flow going, some were quite good. After my divorce languished in court for over two years with no sign of resolution, I hired Julia Chase and her team. Amazingly, under her guidance, the case finally gained traction and was brought to a very successful conclusion. Julia's performance in the final divorce hearings was quite impressive to say the least. She completely destroyed the credibility of my ex as well as that of her main witness, it was a pleasure to watch this epic performance. I believe Julia is a former assistant prosecutor, it showed. The final divorce document her team wrote is a master piece of eloquence which vindicated me completely after having been on the receiving end of no less than 22 motions to compel, numerous motions for discovery, requests from forensic accountants, interventions from guardians and psychologists with each accusation crazier than the preceding one over the last three years. The end result is that I won 50% custody for my 10 year old son over continued and persistent objections of my ex-wife. I was also able to get satisfaction over numerous other important issues. After having had such excellent legal help, one tends to rightfully judge quite harshly previous law firms who greatly suffer the conparison to Julia and her team

Hiring Julia Chase to represent me in my divorce case involving children was the best decision I ever made. From beginning to end, each step of the process was timely communicated and thoroughly explained. The office staff is a true team and the office runs like a well-oiled machine - top notch communication between clients and staff; and excellent organizational skills. Julia is very experienced and has an outstanding reputation in her field. She is very skillful, clever, confident and operates with the highest degree of integrity. I could go on and on. The bottom line is Julia is an absolutely outstanding attorney. I cannot emphasize enough how highly I recommend Julia Chase to anyone seeking representation in family law. Thanks so much Julia, Laura, Ashley, and Stephanie!

Julia not only represented me effectively, but helped me get through the most difficult time in my life. I am myself a lawyer. I know how rare good lawyers can be. Julia is one of those, and she exemplifies integrity. I can commend her to anyone with my very highest recommendation.

I have been so blessed to meet Mrs. Julia, her team Laura, Ashley, Stephanie. I have been going thru a difficult custody battle. I made some bad choices in life. It took me hitting rock bottom before I was ready to change and turn my life over to God. See God knew I needed a intelligent, caring quick on her feet attorney, so he led me to her. I told her my story how I had been mentally and even some physical abuse by my son's father. How I was a recovering addict and use to be a exotic dancer. I told her how God saved me with his grace and mercy. I was so scared of how she and her team would react to me and if they would look down on me. To my surprise they didn't run me off with a pitch fork. Mrs. Julia and her team sat across from me with caring eyes and a sweet smile. Mrs. Julia told me not to be ashamed my past doesn't defy the person I am now. She gave me hope and engorgement to go fight my Goliath. If your up against your Goliath then you should turn to God and throw your stone ( my stone was Mrs. Julia) and defeat the giant. God gave me a second chance at being a mother and he used Mrs. Julia to help me. Mrs. Julia and her team Laura, Ashley, Stephanie are a part of my life now each one of them has left their finger prints on my life. They will always have a special place in my heart. With Mrs. Julia Best Chase and her team you don't just hire an attorney you find a friend. I pray that God blesses everyone that comes in contact with Mrs. Julia one of Gods mighty warriors. Mrs. Julia, Laura, Ashley, Stephanie I can't put into words how blessed I am for all that you have done and all that your still doing. The only thing I know to do is pay it forward every chance I get. Thank You! Thank You! God Bless!

Julia Best Chase came highly recommended by a family friend. I feel very fortunate to have found an attorney with integrity, genuine concern for my case, and knowledge of family law. Mine was an alimony case which my ex-wife was awarded permanent, life-time, alimony. When her circumstances changed, to her good, we found she was no longer in need of the support. The matter was resolved in mediation through Ms. Chase' tenacious, professional persistence. We came to an agreement we both could live with and didn't have to proceed to court. Ms. Chase surpassed my expectations. I was very happy with the outcome and I appreciate the hours Ms. Chase, and her team, worked to get me to this place. I would recommend Julia to anyone in need of great representation!

I was referred to Julia Best Chase while going through a bitter child support/child custody/alimony battle with my ex-wife. Julia was prompt, knowledgeable, courteous, and always completely frank and open with me about the realities and possible expectations of the outcome of my case. She demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, a bedrock of knowledge of family law and I am very satisfied with the representation I received from her and the companionate, professional and effective office staff. Every time I became anxious or nervous she reassured me everything was moving along accordingly and always had kind words for me. She is a tremendously talented divorce trial attorney who genuinely cares about her client's best interests and in my case my daughters best interest as well. Thank you so much Julia , you are the BEST!!!

She and her staff gave us the knowledge we needed to know about the laws. They are kind and have alot of patience when you need someone to ask advice . We will refer her to everyone that needs a lawyer.
