child custody

Vera and her awesome staff took me through a difficult 2yr custody battle. My ex hired a very competent and ruthless attorney who pulled no punches. You know, the kind who could make Ghandi look like the bad guy. We kept our values and morals intact and stuck to the truth and the law. Vera is an ...expert on the fine points of the law and a tough fighter in court. Today, I have virtually equal time sharing, a whomping $5 a month support order, summer vacation time for interstate travel, parental decision making over schooling, a great relationship with my daughter and the knowledge that we did it the honest way. One thing I would pass on that I learned is this: part of a bid for custody is ....my ex did this....... The other part is: I'm the right choice because......... From our first meeting, Vera coached me on how to become the person the judge would be looking for so he would be able to give me what I wanted. I believe that the person I presented in court was the reason I did so well in the final result and that person was a direct result of how well Vera understands the system. I would strongly recommend Vera Bergermann to anyone needing a family court attorney.

Confident Professionalism

Ms. Bergermann listened, provided excellent advice and executed the negotiations with detailed precession and professionalism. She aptly dismissed false allegation and statements made by the other party and her lawyer, putting me at ease and confident with the eventual outcome. Ms.Bergermann's con...fidence, command of the law and trial experience put me in a position of relaxed confidence.

Child custody and child support modification

Vera has handeled several modifications to my divorce agreement over the years. My ex can be an excedingly difficult person to deal with but Vera did a good job of de-escalating what could have been lengthy court proceedings. I feel that Vera Bergermann worked hard to find resolution my problems in... the fairest manner while always representing my best intrests. The process of preparing for, and actually getting before a judge was very frustrating (It took a long time) but through no fault of Vera. The end results exceeded my expectations.

The Best Family Law Attorney in Southwest FL!!

Vera rescued my children from an abusive mother, getting me full custody. Her knowledge of and experience with the court system was invaluable--she knows the ins and outs and how to make things happen in her clients' favor. Most importantly, her greatest concern throughout the entire matter was wha...t was in the best interests of the kids. Not only is Vera the best Family Law attorney in southwest FL, she truly cares about her clients and works hard to do what is best for them. I checked, there are a lot of lawyers in the area who charge more but don't work as hard or win as many cases as Vera. Lawyers aren't cheap, so spend your money wisely and go with the best --Vera Bergermann!
