Thank You!
Thank you for filing my emergency bankruptcy!
Posted by Jane | November 10, 2010
Very Professional!
I found everyone to be very nice and very professional. They kept me informed all along either by phone, mail or email. Any time I had a question, they were prompt to answer it. They never left me hanging for days but informed me same day. I would highly recommend this team and if needed, I will ...

Very helpful through a difficult period.
Attorney and staff were friendly, understanding, non-judgemental, encouraging and helped us to file accurately. Couldn't have asked for better, more competent help.

Hired for uncontested Divorce
I hired Lynette as my divorce attorney in an uncontested divorce. They asked for a retainer, which I paid and they did preliminary paperwork. The papers were never filed for quite some time (over a year) on the delay of my now ex husband. When I went to have them finish the paperwork, they claimed...

Replied last April 03, 2016After a review of your comment, it appears that you have similar circumstances as the review above with no name. Our goal is to provide excellent and responsive service and if you believe we did not do so, I would like to know. You can reach me at [email protected] or 813-672-1900. ( Also, we do not charge $375.00 per hour.)

Avoid this firm all at costs!
I hired this firm and paid my retainer. It was a case that I was advised to wait for a response from my ex that could take almost a year to come. I was not told that my retainer would not carry over. When the year anniversary of my retainer came, I received a letter thanking me for being a client and...
Lynette Silon-Laguna
Replied last April 03, 2016You did not leave a name so I do not know who posted this review. I cannot conceive that this happened as we do not operate that way under any circumstances. Furthermore, if you were our client we would have a record of you. We have a very extensive system of keeping track of all of our clients. In addition, if I were your attorney, I would not have left the firm as you stated above - All Family Law Group, P.A., as I own the firm. If you would like to talk with me about this, then I would be more than happy to do so. Sincerely, Lynette
