Winning

I hired Justin in August 2019 to take my ex-husband to court for contempt. The marital home was ordered to be sold and my ex put liens on the home and would not sign a quit-claim deed preventing the home to be sold. It took Justin almost two years to reel him in with the pandemic, but the end resul...t was I got a 25% increase in my child support, all my un-covered medicals to be paid for, and the marital home ordered to be sold according to my realtor!! Stick with Justin and be patient. Covid has slowed everything down but Judge Tracey Mason spent over four hours on my contempt hearing into the night! I could not have done this without Justin’s help!

Posted by Todd | July 31, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

We won!!

I hired Justin to get custody back of my girlfriend's child.  At the first court hearing the opposing party didn't have a lawyer and since Justin threatened him he hired Stearns & Montgomery. We had a second court hearing where they did not show up and Justin threatened them for not following procedu...ral rules. At our third hearing, we got custody back and opposing counsel walked out of the courtroom furiously calling Justin a "sh %^*#" lawyer. It took a little while with the pandemic but follow all the instructions your lawyer gives you and don't give up!!   So happy my girlfriend has custody of her daughter back in time for school this fall! Thanks so much Justin!!

Posted by Christel Smith | July 23, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

I love you Justin!!! For fighting for what is JUST AND TRUE!

contacted Justin in February, desperately looking for an honest lawyer. During and after explaining my dilemma, I admired how he was so passionately attentive to me and my needs. I hired him instantly! We connected and i felt confident that I hire someone that would fight for me. Within 2 months Jus...tin settled my case in mediation (In two months), Justin settled my divorce. Justin and Kara got me primary custody of my two children and all decision-making authority, statutory child support with no deviation via IDO, and half the equity in the house!” I would recommend Justin and his crew to those who are in need of help. I really appreciate you Justin and I pray that you get your hearts desire for doing what you passionately love. And I have to say that the mediator was PHENOMENALLY GIFTED!

I found him last min, but he was perfect...

Although he came in on my case a bit late. He was able to articulate my side in a temporary hearing. Since then we have moved on to mediation to figure out the minor details. Im so thankful to have found him.

Do not hire this guy to do your taxes

I hired Mr. Justin chin 6 years ago to do my taxes. The first two years he came to my house and he did my taxes with no problem and I paid him in full. The third-year I went to his home and dropped off my papers so he could do my taxes he filed an extension and my taxes were not done for a year after... I give him all my papers. Finally, he did my taxes and I paid him in full. In my fourth and fifty years, which was 2019-2020 I give all my papers bank statement everything that he needed one year before my taxes were due. As usual, Mr. Chin file an extension and didn't do my taxes for the year of 2019 until just a couple of weeks ago after I threatened him that I will file a complaint with the Florida State Bar because he hasn't done my taxes either for 2019 or 2020 and here we are April of 2021. Every single time when Mr. Chen did my taxes I paid him in full. Because he didn't do my taxes for 2019 and 2020 I give him a $100 down payment so he can finish my taxes and I told him that I will give him the remainder of the $300 when he finish my taxes. He never finished my 2020 taxes and he only finished the 2019 2 and 1/2 years after the papers were given to him. I did not want to do a review on Mr. Chen due to the fact the first 3 years I didn't have any issues until he decided that he wants to do people's taxes in his timeframe not when they are due. As a result of this, I am concerned about my stimulus check in conjunction together buying a house or a car because my taxes are not done even now. Mr. Chen might say that I might owe him money and this is absolutely a lie. I have paid him for every single year that he has done my taxes and the only reason I didn't pay him because he didn't finish the 2020 tax and he was late 2 and 1/2 years on the 2019 taxes. I might consider reevaluating Mr. Chen and his work and maybe change my review on him only if he decides that he will do people's taxes on time without filing extension which is doing nothing but causing issues and problems for me including with my Obamacare. As of right now, I am giving Mr. Chin 1 * very poor work this past 2 years of not doing my taxes leaving me out there while I needed my taxes this year more than anything else because I wanted to purchase a house and a car. This is not the way to do business with people when the papers are surrendered together with the bank statements the taxes are supposed to due on time not filing extensions and doing it whenever you feel like doing it.
