Integrity, Honesty, Exceptional Service

I’ve retained Syed for counsel three times over the last 5 years. My cases have consisted of THE WORSE family law issues. Through each detail of domestic violence, child abuse, felonies, misdemeanors, marital debts, child support, and every other ugly issue, Syed has been honest, upfront, detail orie...nted, realistic, caring, and always fought for my child and I with his best. Nothing but great things to say about this attonrey. His integrity speaks volumes of his character. His staff has been consistent year after year, you can expect to receive fair treatment and consistency.

Prenuptial Agreement

I reached out to Mr. Syed Ahmed to draft a prenuptial agreement and gain further understanding on the process. From the beginning I was very impressed with Syed’s candor and knowledge of family matters as covered by Florida law. Throughout the entire process Syed was very thorough and took the time t...o explain every nuance of the agreement without sugar coating any details. Furthermore, Syed made the process personal and displayed a genuine interest in ensuring I was satisfied. I can honestly state that hiring Syed removed a great deal of stress from an already tense situation, and I would give Syed my highest recommendations. Do yourself a favor and hand your worries off to him for a quick and professional solution.

professional and

I contacted Mr. Ahmed regarding divorce proceedings. I was originally pursuing a mediated divorce, but after describing my agreement between my ex-spouse and I, Mr. Ahmed was able to suggest a more expedited process. I immediately felt very comfortable with and confident his counsel. And because I... was soon moving abroad with my work, it was important that the process happen as quickly as possible. Mr. Ahmed and his staff walked me through the entire process and submitted my uncontested divorce documents within a matter of weeks. Due to my travel, Mr. Ahmed secured an expedited court hearing, and made sure I received certified copies of my divorce decree the same day as the hearing. My correspondence with Mr. Ahmed's firm was always pleasant and timely. If I ever have legal needs in the future, I will, without hesitation, hire Mr. Ahmed to represent me. I give Mr. Ahmed and his firm my highest recommendation.

Honest, knowledgebale, caring, not after your money. Not many like him out there!

After talking to several lawyers in the area without getting clear answers, I came across Mr. Syed Ahmed’s information and could not understand how he could have such great reviews on this site. At the beginning I was a little skeptical knowing that all other lawyers did not come close to his positiv...e feedback and since I had never been in a situation like this, but soon enough I learned that the reviews were completely true. Mr. Ahmed not only got me out of a very unfair injunction case by demonstrating that it had been fabricated in front of a family judge but also took my divorce case and worked out a payment plan for me. Mr. Ahmed and his stuff listened to me, provided advice and kept me informed throughout the entire process. He personally texted me a few times from his cell phone after hours and during the weekend with updates and request for information. Mr. Ahmed is a family oriented person and will treat you as a friend when you will most need it. He might not necessarily tell you what you want to hear, but he will be honest and realistic and will guide you through to reach a positive outcome. Thanks for your guidance and for helping me close this chapter.

Diligent, thorough and listens

The details of the Divorce were complicated. When I first met Mr. Ahmed, he articulated the judicial challenges; time paths, costs and outcome expectations. His paralegal staff was always on top of things during the process, even through the obstacles placed by Opposing Counsel. Mr. Ahmed was prom...pt and professional for every Court, Mediation and Deposition Appearance. The outcome of my case was almost spot on with regards to the entire settlement. I highly recommend Mr. Ahmed. He is also a good person and that was important in my decision to choose his services. These difficult proceedings had a fair outcome for all concerned.
