Beverly L Brennan

Very disappointed with her services, don't waste your money. Extremely dissatisfied with the level of service provided. I would advise against investing your funds with this attorney. You will receive numerous emails until your escrow account is drained, with claims that your situation is highly comp...lex and demands extensive backend efforts.

I was incarcerated and DCF was attempting to take my child away if I did not comply with a ridiculous case plan. My criminal charges were violent but my children were in no way connected to those allegations. Upon release from custody i was awarded full custody of my daughter did to Ms Brennans exc...ellent job at trial(while I'm wearing an orange jumpsuit). She won almost every objection and ultimately won my trial beating the all powerful DCF. She is very knowledgeable and fought hard for me. Highly recommend.

Beverly Brennan was hired by me in March of 2015 for a parenting plan agreement. I paid the retainer amount requested and signed the agreement which stated the hourly fee as well as the fact that I would receive monthly billing statements. Over a year went by throughout the case from start to finish ...and I expressed to Mrs. Brennan the need to keep costs low during our initial conversation as I do not have much. Not receiving monthly statements of my account as outlined in her agreement gave me the impression that my retainer was still being used. When the case was successfully settled, I received a whopping invoice for over three times the amount of the original retainer without any prior disclosure or monthly billing statement (which was outlined as common practice in her agreement). When I emailed her regarding my concern, my email went ignored and a month later, I had received a bill from a collections company for the total amount. Beware of this attorney as she had no problem escalating charges without my interest in mind and secretly kept the accruing amount to herself despite what her retainer agreement states otherwise. If a legal document states that I should expect monthly billing statements (as my other attorneys have done in the past), then when I am not receiving them, I naturally assume that the retainer amount was sufficient. I am now contacting the Florida Bar Association and filing a formal complaint as I have found discrepencies on her invoice for billed phone time in excess of what my phone records show. Makes me wonder about the emails as well as she has billed me for emails sent on dates that cannot be validated through documentation. One month she claims she emailed me a couple of times ($120 worth) and I have only one email from her for that month that states she was on vacation. Sad part is that now I am stuck with an absorbant bill in collections and am left to the assistance of only the Florida Bar Association.
