I have been practicing law since 1991 and became licensed to practice in Florida in 1995. I have limited my practice to family law matters so I am able to provide my clients with focused advice and guidance. I strongly believe in the preservation of families whenever possible and make every effort to guide my clients to make choices that have the least negative impact on their children and themselves.
I practice family law because I think people are fascinating and complex; I love helping them. I try to remain cognizant that my clients are, perhaps, not at their best when they see me and that they need someone to guide them. They need to trust that thier attorney is not only on their side, but also is interested in thier long term well-being. I do not encourage clients to litigate and I make every effort to educate my clients so they do not persist in seeking unreasonable results. I know there are many, many other lawyers for my clients to choose and I am grateful when they place their trust and confidence in me.
On a personal level, my philosophy is that life is too short and there is too little time to take in the beauty of it all. Difficult times are experienced by all of us, universally, and we have no option other than to endure them and move forward. There is no other choice.

During the worst time of my life, I spoke to 10 attorneys before Audrey and they all made my stomach sick because all they cared about was playing dirty pool in trying to "win". Audrey was the only one who spoke to me and asked how my kids are (didn't know where they were at the time for weeks) and ...

I hired Miss Jefferies when she was with a different form in 2002. She kept in touch at every step and was present in court for me when I couldn't be there due to my military deployment. I appreciate her hard work and haven't forgotten all these years later. Excellent job and Thank you.

If I could rate her more than 5 stars I would give her 10! I came to Audrey to handle my divorce about 10 years ago. From the moment I arrived she made me feel comfortable and calm and assured me everything would go smoothly and that she would do everything she could to make sure me and my children w...

Hired Mrs. Jefferis for my divorce, she takes proud on being a certified lawyer, therefore, her fees are very high. Billing is super fast but service is really poor, nobody answer your calls or emails, after 15 months I had to get a new lawyer to handle my case. Don't waste your time or money and sav...

My case had sensitive circumstances involving custody of my son and his safety. Audrey was able to put in a place a temporary agreement that protected him, and was extremely helpful at mediation for getting the results I needed. She was patient with me while I let my ex-husband procrastinate our ca...
