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!
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 provided 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.]
