Knowledgable, Professional, Experienced and Reliable

Typically when going through a divorce, trust is damaged and stress levels are very high. If you are searching for your divorce/family advocate, Ellie is a fantastic choice. Ellie proved her trustworthyness and always reduced my stress by responding quickly and efficiently. Ellie truly is the full ...package, she is knowledgable on case law, focused on your case, she is direct and very efficient with her time. She held my hand through the the Dissolution Of Marriage and was successful in post judgement matters. I was able to connect with Ellie when I needed to, she is extremely professional and well-respected. She is direct and focused on your case. I knew immediately I wanted Ellie representing my children and I. If you are searching for a lawyer during stressful family matters, Ellie is the advocate you want by your side. I'm very impressed with her overall ability to succeed and you will be too. She truly is a rising star!

Fair, honest, and highly-skilled attorney

I have hired Ms. Ellie Probasco several times over the past three years to review documents, provide legal advice in family law, and to help me prepare for my divorce. She is honest, fair, and extremely knowledgeable regarding Florida family law. My wife and I had a lot at stake; Ms. Probasco provide...d me with sound legal advice that was critical to a successful case outcome. I can recommend her highly. [I was introduced to Ms. Probasco via a referral from a family friend who is also an attorney, but not in family law.]

She did an excellent job informing me of my rights, options and accomplishing the goals we laid forth. Without a doubt a lawyer that you can trust and ...count on.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Ellie Probasco is one of those unusual lawyers who recognizes that litigation in divorcee scenarios is rarely the right solution. Because I’ve worked with Ellie (representing my client’s spouse) collaboratively, not only have I enjoyed the opportunity to observe her interactions with clients and experts, but I’ve also been privy to her decision making and problem solving in the moment. So I can say with absolute certainly that she is gifted with high intelligence and reasoning skills, and has a wonderful ability to communicate with clients so as to facilitate their decision making during the most stressful time in their lives. I enjoy having Ellie as co-collaborative counsel; not only does her presence add value and improve the likelihood of our success, but her self-deprecating sense of humor makes her a joy to work with. When working in highly stressful conditions, like negotiating the terms of my client’s divorce, this is a huge bonus. I strongly recommend Ellie for collaborative d"
