From my first contact with AFL the process was comfort and confident. They gave me guidance and helped me through a very difficult divorce with professional straight forward honest direction and yet with compassion. I felt completely represented at every step of the legal process. each member of the staff in the office and court handle things well and gave me the confidence that I was being heard. i would highly recommend them to anyone.

AFLG provided excellent, professional and caring service. I appreciate that they were able to provide services in Spanish.

The Team @ All Family Law Group was great! Though this is not an experience I want to repeat, they guided me through this life changing moment with professionalism and understanding. I was truly blessed to find such a great firm to help me through this time and would recommend them to anyone who may need their service.

    I inquired about a very complicated situation with my son and his mother. This firm set up a consultation with me immediately even with a packed schedule. I am extremely satisfied with the service and conversation we had. We spoke for over an hour and I was given all kinds of FREE advice about my particular situation. I had some technical issues and was concerned about not being able to talk. It was met with absolutely no judgement, a warm acceptance, and with alternative means to consult. Overall I am happy with Brandi and the whole team because I feel welcome and a part of a team who really cares and wants to help. I definitely recommend this firm and I urge you to at least give them a call and see what happens, at the very least you will get some amazing advice.

    We have had the privilege to be referral partners with this amazing law office for about a decade. Their clients just rave about their service and always use the word “bulldog” is when referring to Kari. This has always been in a positive sense for defending them and their rights. We have been able to help their clients with their real estate needs during a challenging time too so we have worked very closely together over the years with mutual clients. For your family law needs you can trust Kari and her team are the best because many of her clients have told me that along the way. Keep up the good work!

    While I personally I have not used Kari McDonald (thankfully), I have referred a number of people to her with a variety of different issues and have heard nothing but positive feedback. The feedback that is most common is “she’s very professional”, “she actually listens”, and “she is a great attorney”. When my wife wanted to legally change her name, Kari made the process very smooth and easy. Highly recommend

    They made me feel so comfortable in such a difficult time in my life. They gave me hope, and followed through with supporting me and helping me succeed. I would recommend Kari & David to anybody. David handled my situation, and he was so prepared, and professional and helped me feel confident and calm in a highly stressful situation. Thank you guys so much for everything!!! Will use them if need be for any future legal matters.

    I worked with the Law Office of Kari MacDonald in 2018 for a number of legal matters including family law, real estate and personal estate matters. Kari is very knowledgeable, dynamic and real. She had excellent recommendations on how to handle things and stepped me though each step of the process. The entire staff was professional, friendly and responsive to each of my needs. I would definitely recommend their services, and if I have a need, I will use them again.

    David and his team did an incredible job throughout the entire process of my divorce. Extremely knowledgeable, efficient, responsive, professional and trusting! They focused on the most important piece of the entire process which were my kids. I'm very grateful to David and his office for helping me close the door and begin a new chapter of my life. Couldn't be more happy with the outcome and results! Forever grateful and thankful for having someone I could depend and rely on through such a challenging pivot in my life. Thank you!!

    Attorney David Hurvitz provided me a professional and responsive service during a difficult time. The best thing I can say is that he was extremely responsive to whatever questions I had. Not going through a paralegal or back-channel, it was he who responded to me immediately in all instances. And I thought his flat fee service for what I needed was very fair. Thank you David!

    David deserves 10 stars! I live out of state & was going through the process of modifying child support in FL. From day 1 I felt he understood my case and what needed to be done. He got the results I was looking for and helped with things through casual conversation I didn't even think about. Very respected by the court. I would HIGHLY recommend David!

    I came to David with a big custody situation and honestly I didn't know what to do at all my daughter was taken across the country and David knew exactly how to handle the situation promptly and professionally!! Him and his team did an amazing job with my case! I currently have full custody of my daughter and it is all thanks to David! I would give him 20 stars if I could!!

    I was battling a child custody dispute for over 1 year, unhappy with how my attorney was representing our case. I then found Mr. Hurvitz’s information online and saw that he had great reviews. I scheduled a consultation with him and ended up hiring him to represent me. I was very happy with how Mr. Hurvitz handled the case. It was a tough case that got stretched out over another year due to Covid. Mr. Hurvitz was always on top of things and quickly responded to my calls and e-mails. He always made time to answer my questions and concerns and was attentive to all the case information I provided him. Every time we had a deposition or had to show up in front of a judge, I was thoroughly impressed with how he represented the case. Mr. Hurvitz ended up helping me gain 50% custody of my child and thanks to his extensive knowledge in case law, significantly reduced my child support obligation. Although these cases are never ‘cheap’ to handle, I felt like Mr. Hurvitz was frugal with my costs and saved me money where was possible. I am overall extremely satisfied with his services and will most definitely have him represent me again if needed.

    I was their first COVID divorce case and they helped me navigate through the legal process and going to court virtually. I always seemed to have a question after hours or on the weekends and Nathan was so responsive even when he was out of the office. Damien and Nathan have a great system and I strongly recommend them if you are seeking a divorce. Words can not say enough about this firm!

    We hire this attorney for a final judgement. First they place the claim in the wrong court after 2 years going back and forward ending up costing about 3k with no ending result at all. The judge inform the claim needs to be place in the correct court after 2 years waisted. The office communication was terrible and they did not want to be accountable for their error. I have proof is someone needs this information. Do not waste your money in this firm.

    I was very please with the professionalism of this company. When I did a search of divorce Attorneys, I literally called 5 places and no one answered, nor did they return my call. I called Mckinney Law Group and someone answered immediately! Damien called me back promptly and spoke with me in detail about my divorce and gave me the best advise. I would certainly recommend hiring this company. Absolutely!

    Damien is by far one of the best Family Law Attorney’s. Even with the anguish of COVID, he was able to resolve our case without any delay. His communication is impeccable. If you’re looking for an attorney who is diligent, understanding, and responsive, I highly recommend The McKinney Law Group!

    Damien is a top notch family law attorney. He has legal experience and skill, plus common sense and good instincts. He always keeps good people on staff, and trains them well. I have worked with him on a number of cases, and he definitely gets the right result for his clients.

    Coming from the heart, David Caveda absolutely deserves an award for everything he did for my children & I. My case was very strenuous and unpredictable as to what could be decided and he still accepted while being positive and reassuring along the way of my 1 1/2 year nasty divorce and relocation case. I was granted relocation and received mostly everything I needed! David and his team, specifically Pam, are very attentive and answer all questions needed to prepare everything very quickly. David is a very honest man and talks to you and cares for you like an actual person, not just a number. The hardest time of my life is over and in the year & 1/2 that I have known David and his team, I am glad that they are who I chose for my wild ride! It is finally over and I could just hug them all. Amazing people all the way around!

    David is excellent! He gets the job done and didn't cost me all that much. I highly recommend him as a divorce lawyer.

    David has been my lawyer for years . He has always educated me and made me feel safe on hard times . I couldn’t be more grateful to have such a wonderful person to represent me in a court of law . I fully recommend his Council . If you have any questions , please feel free to call him and set up and appointment. It’ll be the wisest decision you make that day .

    I found Mr. Caveda while searching for top local attorneys in the Tampa area. After reading reviews and interviewing with many others, I decided to go with him. Mr. Caveda and his staff are nothing but professional and in the end, he gave me the opportunity to watch my son grow. If you’re a parent about to face a custody battle, I highly recommend him. This is the person you want in your corner during the most important battle of your life. Thank you David for everything you did for my son, myself and my family. I am eternally grateful and will always recommend you.

    If you’re looking for the best attorney to represent your case and level the playing field, David is by far the best! I hired David and his firm a little over 6 months ago when my last attorney complicated issues and wouldn’t act on the best interests of my son. The case was dragging on-and on-and on for what was way too long. The other attorney just simply racked up meaningless attorney fees and placed my son in danger. Not only did David fix all the issues previously encountered, and fast, he was able to get the entire case completed and settled in such a short time period, it’s amazing! By far, hire this firm if you want what’s best for your child. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

    Even 1Million stars wouldn't be enough! We will be forever grateful for the offices of Jeanne T. Tate- Ms. Kim Lewis and Mrs. Erica Healey. Thank you for your hard work and absolute dedication to what you all do; we couldn't be happier!

    They helped me achieve my dream of being adult adopted by my grandfather and getting my original name back. They surpassed my expectations and were very professional, patient, and flexible. I wouldn’t recommend anyone other than Jeanne Tate Law office. Thank you so much!

    I just would like to share my experience that I had working with another firm before someone recommended Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. And then share my experience working with Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. We needed legal assistance with regards to an adoption. After spending over $2K and almost 8 months of very little focused attention with another "Family" Law Firm in Tampa and also dealing with an attorney who did not know how to handle an adoption process, we replaced the firm and hired Erica Healey at Jeanne T. Tate, P. A. This was the best decision we made as a family. Within a matter of a few weeks Counselor Healey had everything completed and had our final hearing scheduled in Florida. Mind you this case was a multi-state adoption. She knew exactly what needed to be done, how to get it done and the feedback and communication was better than the five stars I could give. Likewise, I wish I could give this firm more stars and recommendations. So please do not make this mistake our family made and go with any other firm than this one. It will cause you to waste money and valuable precious time that cannot be recovered. With Jeanne T. Tate, P.A, Its not about extending and dragging out your case to attain more billable hours like many of the others. They want to make their clients happy and quickly resolve family matters. Great experience, great firm and great Attorneys!

    I was referred to the law firm in early November. The attorney we spoke to seemed genuine in wanting to help me with adopting my step-daughter. She was also honest about the risks and success rate, but we felt confident in their abilities to help us. The next day, my wife and I were signing official documents to hire Erica Healey to represent me in what we knew was going to be a rocky process. The communication between her paralegal was amazing. She was prompt and always answered our questions thoroughly and honestly. She would respond to our emails at nearly any time, day or night. We ran into a speed bump in our case, and Kim Lewis helped keep my mind calm, and guided me to make rational and smart decisions when it came to moving forward. Pricing was always communicated to us throughout the whole process, so we never felt surprised by new fees. Jeanne and Erica also guided us on applying for and receiving the Gift of Adoption grant to help pay the remaining balance of our fees. My legal team worked with me every step of the way, and finalized my step-parent adoption in a shorter amount of time than originally expected. Our adoption was finalized in late February, and during our zoom meeting, I could see the look of genuine happiness that Erica had in her eyes for my family. The Jeanne T Tate law firm’s legal staff has a true passion for helping families, and you can see that through their communication and promptness. I am so glad that we were referred to them, because we had such a pleasant and smooth experience. If you’re ever on the fence about a step-parent adoption, and you have fears that are holding you back, please call the Jeanne T Tate law firm and see what you can do to get the ball rolling for you.

    Hello, I was adopted in 2002 my mother was tricked by Jeannie Tate. She was 18 and Jeannie Tate failed to share information with her and didn't properly explain adopted therefore I was put into the adoption agency's hands and my mother had to give me up completely and lose me for 16 years. She has done this to plenty of other parents where they have lost their children and the child has been sold off. She will not stop. She tricks parents and last minute after they sign their rights away she tells them the important information that could change their minds but only after it is to late and this is not fair to the parents nor the child. She does not need to be doing any more adoptions I am walking proof of what Jeannie Tate has done. And after all these years I will speak up what she did was not right and to all those other kids who had that chance to stay with their biological parents who were tricked just is not right! She will continue to sell off young children who are voiceless and have no sense of option if no one speaks out.

      They helped me achieve my dream of being adult adopted by my grandfather and getting my original name back. They surpassed my expectations and were very professional, patient, and flexible. I wouldn’t recommend anyone other than Jeanne Tate Law office. Thank you so much!

      I just would like to share my experience that I had working with another firm before someone recommended Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. And then share my experience working with Jeanne T. Tate, P.A. We needed legal assistance with regards to an adoption. After spending over $2K and almost 8 months of very little focused attention with another "Family" Law Firm in Tampa and also dealing with an attorney who did not know how to handle an adoption process, we replaced the firm and hired Erica Healey at Jeanne T. Tate, P. A. This was the best decision we made as a family. Within a matter of a few weeks Counselor Healey had everything completed and had our final hearing scheduled in Florida. Mind you this case was a multi-state adoption. She knew exactly what needed to be done, how to get it done and the feedback and communication was better than the five stars I could give. Likewise, I wish I could give this firm more stars and recommendations. So please do not make this mistake our family made and go with any other firm than this one. It will cause you to waste money and valuable precious time that cannot be recovered. With Jeanne T. Tate, P.A, Its not about extending and dragging out your case to attain more billable hours like many of the others. They want to make their clients happy and quickly resolve family matters. Great experience, great firm and great Attorneys!

      I was referred to the law firm in early November. The attorney we spoke to seemed genuine in wanting to help me with adopting my step-daughter. She was also honest about the risks and success rate, but we felt confident in their abilities to help us. The next day, my wife and I were signing official documents to hire Erica Healey to represent me in what we knew was going to be a rocky process. The communication between her paralegal was amazing. She was prompt and always answered our questions thoroughly and honestly. She would respond to our emails at nearly any time, day or night. We ran into a speed bump in our case, and Kim Lewis helped keep my mind calm, and guided me to make rational and smart decisions when it came to moving forward. Pricing was always communicated to us throughout the whole process, so we never felt surprised by new fees. Jeanne and Erica also guided us on applying for and receiving the Gift of Adoption grant to help pay the remaining balance of our fees.

    Nicole Gehringer, from Harris, Hunt & Derr, P.A , was the primary lawyer who handled my divorce from my wife and was a pleasure to work with. She made everything very easy for me to understand and was always willing to explain anything I was unsure about. She also did regular check-ins and was always very prompt with her work. She made the whole process very smooth despite it being an incredibly difficult situation. In the end, I was very happy with the marital settlement agreement that she produced and the final settlement we were able to agree upon. She was always available to call and the whole process was completed very quickly. She is a bright and very talented lawyer who I would recommend to anyone. Thank You Nicole!

    Divorce can be one of the most challenging experiences anyone will ever have in their lifetime. After researching the collaborative divorce process and having young kids, I was certain I had to stay out of court and have control of my outcome. That is when through my research and referrals, I came across Harris, Hunt and Derr. At my initial meeting with Nancy Harris and Katherine Scott, I was confident this firm had the experience and approach that was right for me. They organized a team of professionals to help manage the collaborative process and make things flow smoothly. I called it my legal "dream team", quarterbacked by Katherine Scott. Katherine is a good listener, extremely empathetic, wise beyond her years and possesses the perfect balance of tenacity and strategic thinking that undoubtedly was the difference maker in getting a win-win solution for all parties involved. Working with Katherine and her firm was one of the best decisions I have made and I would recommend anyone in the unfortunate situation of divorce to consult with Katherine first, when looking for legal expertise.

    I took notice of Harris, Hunt & Derr’s website listing of High Asset Divorce as one of their specialty areas since mine fell into this category. They indicated that they have a network of respected financial specialists, such as forensic accountants, to assist in complex high net worth divorce cases. I selected Joe Hunt and his team to represent me. In my very first meeting with Joe and his team he immediately recognized that a highly respected forensic accountant would greatly strengthen my position. We collaboratively engaged this accountant and my case was expertly dissected whereupon a strong legal and financial strategy was developed. The case was subsequently resolved in mediation with a fair settlement for both parties. Joe’s experience and wisdom in how my case could be fairly resolved was critical to achieving the desired outcome without needing to go to court.

    I worked closely with Nancy, Cory and Tracy and I know they were on top of everything and very knowledgeable. They were able to get the best for me and my kids and I know I couldn't have chosen a better firm to represent me. I was a great pleasure working with them and I recommend them without any hesitation.

    I highly endorse Nancy Harris, Joe Hunt, Christine Derr and their impeccable legal team. I have been working with this firm for well over ten years in the Tampa legal community and cannot recommend them enough. You are 100% in good hands when you decide to use this firm for any of your family law needs. They are highly recommended!

    I have been working with Mark for 20 years and never been disappointed. He is responsive, timely, and professional. Most importantly, he provides solid, balanced feedback on matters, helping guide me towards a positive outcome.

    Mark great job !! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! My family and I are grateful and very happy with the result obtained today !! ????????????

    Mark’s firm did a wonderful job representing me. I would highly recommend his firm. Great Job Mark.

    Mark Rodriguez was a guiding light of hope to me and my family at a time when our outlook was dim. He handled our case with absolute professionalism and when the likelihood of a positive outcome seemed impossible he showed us compassion and stood strong as our advocate until a fair resolution was reached. He was in constant contact so that there was never a doubt as to the status of our case and his approach always had our best interest in mind – both personally and financially. His above and beyond approach not only got us to a resolution, but his continued support after the resolution of the case ensured that there were no loose ends to worry about. I am forever grateful for his empathetic approach and his support during such a difficult time and would recommend him without reservation.

    Mark is a great attorney and very responsive to client needs.

    This law firm is the absolute worse of them all. I had to continuously contact their office for updates. I never spoke to my actual case manager never sat down to discuss details of my case except for the first initial consultation. Tim Prugh is very rude and condescending. Was told by my doctors that his law firm was no longer representing me as legal counsel and never received a call from Tim to determine why. When I questioned why was I finding out from my doctor this information I was told by Tim that I was being aggressive and loud. Instead of an apology for unprofessional behavior and actions I was being blamed for my accident and not heard. I highly would not recommend this firm to no one. Utterly horrible!!!!!

    Tim and both Sarah’s are great. Knowledgeable and tough, they provided a realistic explanation of my case each step of the way.

    Great staff!!! Helping lots of people

    You can always tell that you are in good hands when you meet the office staff and especially, Mr. Prugh's legal assistant/paralegal! We were truly made to feel like we were part of the family! Thanks for helping to take care of my immediate relatives.

    Prugh likes to settle out of court in 3 different conversations he mentioned how tuff and difficult an oponent we had the case lasted close to 2 years and he wouldn't move forward with a trial i finally gave up and told him to settle for whatever at the end due to my accident i have medical papers that certify me as 30% disabled and i live in pain i would recomend staying away from this guy
