The Mt. Everest Guide of Attorneys!

Would you climb Mt. Everest without a guide? Syed was the “Master Guide” that navigated all the bad and ugly things involved in a divorce. His deep expertise, communication skills, caring, outstanding staff (Brandy is awesome) and always placing the ‘clients best interest first’ is just what everyon...e needs in an attorney! Not only did he successfully handle the divorce, gave me peace of mind, but I now consider him a true friend!

The God of Law

Syed, (and legal team member Brandy), are the upper echelon of family law representation. Once I told Syed my situation regarding my divorce he immediately had my mind at ease. EVERYTHING he told me was exactly what took place all the way through the final hearing. He is articulated, composed, an...d friendly. No gray areas, no surprises, and only positive outcomes. Whenever I called the office, (a lot), someone always answered my call. If I ever had a question I always received answers in a timely fashion. I had absolutely ZERO issues. I would say most family lawyers are like Kirkland brand chocolate; good but you know there’s better. If you want Godiva level quality, you go to Syed.

Tampa Surgeon

Syed and his team are the way to go. His fee was 25% of what they charged my ex. Easily accessible, you can text him anytime. Knows the law and everyone in the area. Everything is super efficient. He’s not out to take your money. He wants it done quickly and fairly. Zero issues. The attorney will mat...ter regardless of how simple you think the case is….get a good one that knows what they’re doing.

I would re-hire Mr. Ahmed without hesitation.

Mr. Ahmed represented me during my high-conflict divorce which began in 2017 and finally ended in 2019. My divorce from a difficult and uncooperative spouse was extremely stressful, and included several attempts at mediation, depositions, multiple motions, and several hearings before the final hearin...g. My ex hired an extremely unpleasant and aggressive attorney who did his best to intimidate me at every opportunity. With Mr. Ahmed representing my interests, that did not happen. Mr. Ahmed is a skilled professional. He is honest and pragmatic from the first consultation and truly cares about the welfare of his clients. He calmly and efficiently handled every aspect of my case, demonstrated incredible integrity in his practice of law, and provided grounded advice and guidance during an incredibly difficult time. Mr. Ahmed is poised, articulate, and aggressive in both his communication with opposing counsel, and in the court room. He is an extremely fast, logical, and analytic thinker, and was able to catch my ex in financial inconsistencies that resulted in a favorable settlement for me in the end. Being a single mom of three, earning a teacher's salary, and divorcing a narcissistic individual from a wealthy family was not an easy situation to be in. Syed ensured that my children and I were provided for throughout the extensive proceedings, and he persisted until the Final Judgement awarded me alimony, support, and a fair division of assets and liabilities. I will continue to rely upon Mr. Ahmed to represent my interests in future family law issues. If you are looking for a skilled, energetic, aggressive, and most importantly honest attorney who is experienced in dealing with high-conflict divorce with children, I would strongly encourage you to call Mr. Ahmed.

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.
