This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Attorney!

I hired Attorney Schiltz in what I was told was a uphill battle to get custody of my son. Mr. Schiltz was very well informed of the law and was able to communicate such laws to me in simple terms. He was polite, mannerly, confident and realistic. He was aggressive and had a unique understanding of ...filing the right Motions. To sum things up I got custody of my son although I was a unwed Dad. He is by far the best family Attorney in the state of Florida.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
