Child Support

From the first time I met Johnny he was straight up and straight to the point. His professionalism is exceptional and court room etiquette was perfect. Needless to say I would recommend him strongly......

Posted by Frank | November 19, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

A true professional.

Unlike other Attorneys that I have hired in the past, it was evident Mr Drizis was concerned for me as a person and that I was not just another client. Mr Drizis provided me with exceptional service and negotiated the best possible scenario for my situation. Mr Drizis kept in contact with me through...out the whole process and followed through to the end. If you don't want to feel like just another number and are looking for a quality professional, then Attorney Johnny Drizis is the man for you.

An honest and forthright attorney

Johnny was a understanding, compassionate, and a straight shooter. Personally, for me I needed an attorney who would be frank, honest, and direct. Johnny was all these qualities and more, always offering words of encouragement and pearls of wisdom. Which at this point, a year post divorce, most have ...come true. To those guys looking for a divorce attorney, it gets better and I hope this helps you in your search.

Family law

Dealing with legal issues can be extremely difficult without the representation of the right legal counsel. Attorney Johnny Drizis is an exceptional lawyer who is professional, experienced and ethical. Attorney Drizis spends time with his clients and exerts an enormous amount of effort into each case.... He is compassionate, understanding, and patient as he cares about his clients and their children as well. His office is in a convenient location which is pleasant and welcoming. Attorney Drizis’ paralegals and legal team are wonderful, polite, and professional; they return calls and emails in a timely manner and they are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I would recommend Attorney Johnny Drizis to anyone who is in need of family law legal representation.

Skilled Lawyer; Trusted Friend, Man of Faith

I met Johnny reeling after an unforeseen, unwanted request for divorce from my wife of 15 years. I needed lawful counsel, but I also needed a professional to “meet me” in my chastening. My faith in Christ was all that was keeping to me together then, and Johnny’s like-minded and compassionate couns...el were nothing short of a God-send. I was led to Johnny's office through prayer and a unique invitation from his website; his site was one that clearly catered to men, but more importantly to me, honored love of Jesus. During my first visit to his office, he started by probing on how I might still be able to save my marriage. He even offered resources on reconciliation! What kind of family lawyer does this? I would say now, “An exceptional one!" Once we determined that my wife as not interested in saving the marriage, Johnny shifted gears toward my interests. With that said, he was always keen on my intent - where was my heart in this? He was candid that if my interests were selfish or not in the best of my three minor children, he would walk away from my case. What uncommon valor in an industry rich with greed and conceit! As a husband of a stay-at-home wife of 15 years, my primary concern was fair and ample time with my children that I adore. Florida law would make this an uphill battle. And despite the pain of rejection and abandonment, it was important to me that my wife was treated generously, fairly, and with dignity. Johnny delivered on all these and then some. I now enjoy 10+ days a month with my kids, and my assets were split / alimony set in a way that allowed my wife to successfully transition into the workforce while still allowing me to retain a manageable income. Johnny served me as his client with tenacity, candor, and professionalism; he loved me as a brother in Christ with compassion, humility, and grace. He enjoys not only my unqualified professional endorsement, but my unabridged gratitude. My greatest endorsement of Johnny is that I consider him not only my attorney, but my friend! Bravo Zulu, brother!

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
