Julia Best Chase

I contacted Julia, when my ex had just threatened divorce. I'm so grateful that I took the time to call, get the info I needed and feel some peace. I had hoped that I would never need to call back. However, when he pulled the trigger, I was on it and Julia was ready to go. She gave me a very reali...stic honest picture of what to expect, as best that anyone can do, not knowing how my ex and the Opposing team would show up. In Mediation, Julia was unflappable!! The OC was yelling and screaming (when we they had to interact) and Julia was calm and cool. When his team tried to pull punches, she was right there was an answer and proposing things for my defense. for example, when my Ex wanted to divide the upfront alimony into two payments - 6 months apart, within nanoseconds, she agreed "with interest and here's that interest amount as of today". Wow, that alone yielded me an additional $11K in my settlement. She was timely in her replies and her legal assistant was amazing to work with. We had TWO long days of mediation, and she was incredible throughout the entire time! I'm oh so grateful!

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 explain...ing the various legal jargon in a man on the street way!

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.

I have known Julia Best Chase since she was at the Hillsborough County State Attorney's Office. I divorced my ex-wife nearly 23 yrs ago. In 2013 my ex-wife took me back to court. Ms. Chase handled the case very well. She kept me informed by email (email was my choice) with every thing that was... taking place. When we went into the mediation room and met with the other side, Ms. Chase was aggressive and confident but professional. Ms. Chase got loop holes closed in the final judgement of the divorce that should have been done 22 yrs. ago. I am very happy with what Ms. Chase was able to do for me. If you need an attorney for a family problem you will not be sorry if you use the services of Ms. Chase.

Words could not even express my gratitude for having Mrs. Chase and staff represent me and my daughter in such a high conflict and emotionally charged family matter case that could've been a life threatening and ever changing experience if not represented correctly. Out of two cases worked ( Hearing ...and Trial ) both Judges found her counsel and testimony to be extremely persuasive . We were handled with care from beginning to the end . All my questions and concerns were answered with prompt response and effective legal advice . I would highly recommend Mrs. Chase to anyone who is looking for a honest and hardworking qualified lawyer with superb service and outstanding office staff that is courteous and professional.....look no further this is the one for you. To me she is worth every dollar spent , most certainly no case is the same but out of thousands of lawyers out there I would rather deal with someone that gets results , pays careful attention to fine details and shows the work to back it up with . She is a total blessing , I thank God for having her being part of such a critical moment in my family's life. As a former client , I endorse Mrs. Julia Chase you will not be disappointed.
