Family Law

I endorse this lawyer. David is a highly competent attorney in the Tampa area. More importantly, he is a good person who cares about his clients. I was referred to him by my parents, and would not hesitate to refer others to him. I was completely satisfied with all aspects of my case which includes h...is wonderful staff. Not only does Mr. Anton offer a vast wealth of substantive knowledge and experience, I have found him to be extremely efficient and cost-effective.

Legal Ease

My experience with David was primarily due to a situation that my wife found herself in regarding an inheritance. Without going into the specifics, we met with David and explained my wife's situation about a year prior to actually hiring him. He was very thorough with his questions and realized we ...were in a legally solid position however, it was too early to do anything. We stayed in touch over the course of the next year. The facts about my case had not changed except that financially, we weren't able to sign any "typical" contract. I mentioned to David I was going to defend our case Pro Se'. Of course, David informed me that would likely be a bad idea, not because we were incompetent but because of the vast procedures involved with regard to wills, trusts and estates. David at this point became more of a concerned friend than an attorney. He created a new contract that was financially feasible for us; then he pounced on our case. Within 45 days it was settled with a victory for us! THANK YOU DAVID! I/we would recommend him for any type of legal advice. He's from Tampa and knows all of the best attorney's. If he can't represent you he certainly knows someone who can!

Mr .Anton and his legal team provided excellent advise and professionalism during my very emotional and difficult divorce. Knowledge of the law and strategy is thus firms strength. I highly recommend Mr Anton to anyone who needs expert advise and seeks to resolve martial matters professionally and r...easonably.

Review S. David Anton

David knows the law very well. His preparation for trial and ability to communicate his thoughts to judges in a summarized fashion proved worthwhile in my case.
