Sense of Compassion and Understanding in her voice

I'm in the process of retaining her but from the moment I spoke to her, told her about my complicated family law case, I could hear the sympathy in her voice, the compassion. I took the time to read all the reviews and over the years with my litigation, I learned that its human behavior that no pers...on is going to be able to please everyone. But, in family law, its the dedicated attitude, the fighting attitude for justice that a lawyer needs in additional to the knowledge that they possess. I am in the negotiating stage with Ms. Preston and am very hopeful that she is the kind of attorney with compassion and a fight for justice. You can hear it in her voice and family cases are emotional when children are involved that you need someone like Ms. Preston on your side. I know I am very emotional when it comes to my children because they are the innocent ones.

Summer is the best!!!!!!!

All i can say is she took on a huge case the mother of my child is the Airport thief and so much more.Alot of lawyers didn't want my case without 5000 down. But i found Summer and she worked out a plan that is unbelievable she is a miracle and by the way when she hits the court room she turns into ...beast mode .Thank you so much you cant go wrong with her.

She fought and my girls won!

I just finished up a case with Summer through the Department of Revenue child support enforcement. My ex was lying throughout the entire hearing saying she didn't receive any of the cash payments I gave her for my girls. Ms. Preston was able to catch her in  each and every one of her lies and even th...ough I did not have proof of payments through receipts, the judge did credit me for everything  I testified to except for $13 that I gave her for batteries at toys r us. I am going to hire Ms. Preston again so I can modify the visitation because now I'm seeking full custody.

Great Lawyer Who I Will Hire Again

I asked Summer Preston to prepare a pre-nuptial agreement for me a few years ago. She spent substantial time discussing it with me and completed it in a timely manner. She is highly intelligent and I felt comfortable talking to her about my concerns. I plan on having her prepare my will also in th...e near future.

Long Distance Parenting Plan

I hired Summer after my ex moved to Florida and took our child with her. We failed to agree on a visitation schedule privately and my ex was being very uncooperative. I currently live in Colorado and found Mrs. Preston through various web searches of lawyers in Florida. The case is now over and than...ks to Summer, a long distance parenting plan has been set in stone. I couldn't be any happier to have a shared visitation schedule and see my little girl on a consistent basis. I have yet to meet Summer in person, but it goes to show how diligent she is even in unusual circumstances. She kept constant contact by email, phone, etc. She helped us understand the process of everything and Florida regulations. I would recommend her excellent services to anyone. Thank you Summer!
