Great supermarket. Clean store. Friendly, helpful staff. Always stocked.

I was facing 2 felony charges, which would 100% require jail time plus fines and probation. When I contacted John, he reviewed my case and explained his objective was to keep me out of jail. He gave me a price for his services and explained the processes. John worked closely with the prosecutors, at one point the state emailed him stating it was very rare that "no" incarceration would be granted for the charges I was facing. That did not deter John, he continued to communicate with prosecutors and was able to work a deal. This kept me out of jail, no fines and minimal court costs . In the end, I faired much better then I ever expected. I am a good person that made a mistake, John was able to convince not only the prosecutors but the judge also saw that and gave me some leniency in my probation requirements. Even granting me the possibility of early termination of probation. In the end, no jail time! After my court proceedings, John followed up with me and offered to petition the court when the time came, to request the early termination of probation. In the end, he did exactly what he said he would do, for the price he quoted. I know that my case could have cost an average of $10,000 in legal fees and his fee was no where near that. His previous experience in the legal/criminal field proves an asset when working with prosecutors and the legal issues, he knows how to approach them. I cannot stress enough the importance of having an attorney that will fight for you. John is that person, he will keep you up to date on your case and answer any questions you may have. I STRONGLY recommend John Rutkowski! R.Prive

I did quite a bit of research trying to find the best attorney for my case. That is why I chose Mr. Rutkowski and found after the case was done I was correct in my choice. My case was dismissed and prior to the case I didn’t think that would be a viable outcome. Mr. Rutkowski has an incredible background in law and is also very affordable. I would highly recommend Mr. Rutkowski as an attorney that will use his past experience to defend you. DG

Im a Licensed State of Florida Builder Developer for 20 years. I’ve had my share of working with Attorneys that sell it good, then you get burned. After several phone calls with Attorneys about my case, I found myself concerned and not confident that a “great” Attorney was really out there for my defense and you really cared. After speaking with John, I actually said to myself, is this guy real or just a fantastic salesman. John was more than real, a true genuine man/soul. He answered my calls every time and spoke to me without watching a clock. He spent true personal time with me. John did exactly what he said he would do, and did NOT exploit my pocketbook. Simply put, I have no idea why anyone would choose a different DUI Attorney. John is undeniably, your BEST man for the job. His knowledge of each step through the process is spot on and he knows the system like the back of his hand, no surprises. As I go on in life, I will not hesitate to contact John 1st call, if I’m in need of Legal Assistance. Even if it’s not his field, I trust that he will lead me to the best Attorney for whatever my needs are. Thanks again John, GO EAGLES ???? ????

I can not express enough the quality of care that this firm has for their clients. They treat people as people not like another case. I highly recommend this firm. Although, I never plan on getting in trouble EVER again. I would come back to them if I needed too.

I felt like we were with the right law firm from the beginning. They were very responsive to my needs and above all extremely professional. If I ever have a need again Bogle Law will be my first choice. Thanks for an awesome outcome.

Great firm I would definitely use them again if need be

I hired Bogle Law in the summer of 2020 after being charged with a felony based upon intentional damaging and inaccurate testimony of a scorned marital partner of only one year. The results of the misleading probable cause affidavit being of public record led to not only to my arrest but also my subsequent unfair loss of my career and my hard earned reputation and my sense of self worth as a professional. From the first phone conversation with Bogles experienced and charming law clerk Baron Bogle to my initial one on one consult with their office manager David Bogle the same day I felt I was in caring and professional hands and would be successful in choosing to fight the false claims against me and placed without hesitation my confidence in their firm. They were fair financially with me and worked with me thru the challenges of funding my legal team. Tauna Bogle showed exceptional belief in me as client both in one on one legal consultations where I felt assured my story was truly heard and documented accurately and in the courtroom where she showed her passion for fairness and justice affirming my constitutional rights as the accused. I truly knew she had my back no matter what ! I could call her or her team at all times and the responsiveness was beyond any experience and on point every time like a Sentry guarding over me. I felt safe and confident and never lost hope. I was so overwhelmed with the confidence and results in Tauna’s Defense team that I retained her in my separate yet related domestic divorce case. It was in this where I gained even more confidence in Bogle Law with extensive professional interactions with her Senior Legal Administrative Assistant Samantha Cranfield who like the rest of the law firm at Bogle helped me navigate thru the most challenging times of my life, yet in every interaction went above and beyond for my interests as if I was their most valued client. The talent within this organization exceeds all expectations at every level every day . I cannot say enough in recommending this law firm for anyone as the service is beyond expectation and the family oriented approach of every individual in the firm is reassuring in such a difficult time for someone accused that does not know where to turn in these most difficult times of uncertainty Chris M - Punta Gorda Florida

I can't say enough about the wonderful staff at Bogle Law. They walked me through every phase of my divorce and were always there to answer all of my questions and concerns. I highly recommend them.

Steve and his staff are amazing!!!! Steve was so patient with my crazy anxiety phone calls, emails and office visits. He has a calm, laid back demeanor but when it comes time to advocate for his client watch out because you will see the bulldog!! He got me more than I expected in my divorce but also gave me a much needed dose of reality when it came to what all divorce entails. His fees were fair compared to other lawyers I consulted. I also loved the fact that the fees never changed, there was never a surprise. The price he said was what it was. He also had a an office therapy dog (that's at least what I called her) which was much needed during my zoom cases. His staff was awesome too. Wendy is the sweetest lady & quick to respond. Levi was always so polite with his southern charm. Hopefully I'll never need his services again but if I do ever find myself needing a lawyer I will definitely call Steve again ☺

If you Hire this lawyer!! In Florida there’s a reputation that it’s a “Mother Only-State” vs Share custody or even full custody friendly, Mr. Leskovich will fight for your rights and for your child’s. Thanks to him, I was able to get the full custody of my child and protect her from a bad environment. I was told it couldn’t be done by many people and he assured me, that if it was necessary, he will make sure my daughter is back home safe with me. Thanks also to his assistant Wendy, which answered all my emails and questions and was up to date with any new development. I couldn’t be happier and any father that legitimate is fighting for the wellbeing of their child and that wants to fight for the child’s rights and theirs, I will highly recommend him. Thank you, Leskovich Law Group, P.A.

Best lawyer in swfl. Very attentive. Always able to put me at ease. Handled my case with results better then expected.

Went in for a free consult. Was treated with dignity and respect and got all my questions answered. If I do hire an attorney it will definitely be this firm.

Please do not hire this man to be your lawyer. I am a single mother of two young boys, I went to him out of desperation for my divorce. He promised me everything would be OK and that he would do whatever it took to help me with my divorce and childsupport case. I had already started the process for the parenting plan and all that and for the divorce. And I ended up basically paying $3000 and he did nothing but send some emails. it comes time to get updates on your case, he will be no help.. his staff is also very unprofessional and don't ever know what is going on. Don't expect calls back not even emails back. I am extremely disappointed with his service. He will take your money and run. Even now I still need help with my full custody case which he also said was gonna get done and nothing! DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN FOR ANYTHING!!!

I had zero past experience when it came to hiring a criminal lawyer. I contacted attorney Miguel Fernandez very last minute and immediately felt comfortable and confident I made the right choice. Him and his paralegal were very patient with me and all my questions every step of the way. I was very satisfied with his work ethic and kind demeanor. He pushed and stayed on top of my case until ultimately getting me the results I wanted. I would highly recommend Attorney Miguel Fernandez to anyone in need of legal help!

I am not sure how to feel about retaining Miguel Fernandez's services as my Private Attorney. I was mostly confident, somewhat unsure, about his services from the time that I hired him to my final court date. Throughout the process, I felt as though he was not taking me as seriously as he should have, probably since I am in my early 20's. However, I feel as though that should have been all the more reason for him to take me more seriously, considering I have various events to look forward to in my life, such as college graduation, searching for a career, and one day starting a family. I showed up to my final court date, and minutes before going in to face the judge, Attorney Fernandez threatened not to represent me, claiming that my final payment, which was due a month prior, was in arrears. I confidently assured him that the payment had been made by a relative the day before it was due, and that my relative even spoke with him personally that day, which she did. In a moment of dismay, even though I was sure the payment had been made, I offered to stop by his office immediately after court to deposit the money that he insisted had not been paid. He stated that I knew there was nothing he could do for me on that day had he not already been paid in full. At this point, I turned to another relative, who drove me to court that day, because he was also there when the payment was made, and he also confidently assured Attorney Fernandez that the payment was made on time. Miguel Fernandez proceeded to tell me that he was not going to argue with me. I asked, "What are you going to do when you go back to your office and realize that you have been paid and you chose not to represent me?" At this point he stepped away for a few minutes to call his office. When he returned, he apologized, and said "I am not very happy with my office right now" which did absolutely nothing for me because I could feel my heart beating out of my chest and my mind was racing in panic, wondering how I was going to face the judge alone and what I was going to say. Attorney Fernandez lost all credibility with me at this point, as did the individuals that occupy his office. I questioned him on whether he was truly looking out for my best interest considering I am a college student and will be looking for a career within the coming years, or if my Driving Under the Influence case had just fell by the wayside over the last month because he thought he hadn't been paid for his services, and therefore didn't adequately service me. I can actually say that I have been experiencing a great sense of regret every day since I entered a plead of "No contest" and gave up my right of being innocent until proven guilty. I honestly feel like he did not have my best interest in mind, and only claimed to have my best interest in mind, and that this was my best option, because he was personally too embarrassed to admit how unprofessionally my case was handled. By the time I went in to see the judge I was so flustered that I could hardly focus on the situation at hand, and what was being said, because of the situation that happened minutes before. I could not express, in words, the way that I felt that day. I felt like I was taken advantage of, and like I was lied to. I still feel remorse, and think about it every day that passes. I wish that I had chosen to go a different route, and even wonder if I would've been better off hiring a public defender.

This great attorney is a true professional and trustworthy in handling Court Matters professionally. Posses skills and knowledge of our Criminal justice system. He has served our community and holds the respect of his peers and is one of the most trustworthy attorneys I have entrusted in representing close friends and family. Very courteous and his work ethics sum up to positive results. Thank You Angel Martinez

Mr. Fernandez was an excellent attorney. He kept me informed throughout the whole process and got me the best possible outcome. He was very knowledgable and professional. I would recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney. George R.

I have to leave my piece about this firm! I heard about this firm from someone close who had used them and been very satisfied. Terry and Amanda were a huge part of my life for about 2 years of court proceedings. I have never been treated with such fairness, compassion and respect. Terry is more than just an attorney. He is passionate about what he does, and it shows in all of his actions! I am beyond thankful to have had him in my corner! THEY ARE AMAZING! ❤️

    I have to leave my piece about this firm! I heard about this firm from someone close who had used them and been very satisfied. Terry and Amanda were a huge part of my life for about 2 years of court proceedings. I have never been treated with such fairness, compassion and respect. Terry is more than just an attorney. He is passionate about what he does, and it shows in all of his actions! I am beyond thankful to have had him in my corner! THEY ARE AMAZING! ❤️

Jeremy and Joe went above and beyond for me on my case. Everything they said they would do they did. They were very professional from the second I called them ( not like some other lawyers that I called before I chose them ) . They actually took the time of day to hear me out and give me advice on steps to take. They took action on my case very quickly and kept me up to date every move of the case. #1 lawyer out of Sarasota county if you were to ask me. If your looking for a professional lawyer that will handle your case Jeremy and Joe are the ones to call. Thank you again for all you did. Case was dropped within 1 month of hiring them. Well worth every Penney spent!

Joe earned his money before I paid a dime. I knew that I could not go with anyone else to clean up what for me at been a long standing, albatross around my neck. I never had to ask for updates. His insider ability and good relationships with other legal professionals was clear throughout the process and even in the court room. I'm a free man because of Joe(and favor from the Lord)! Highly recommended.

When I needed someone to understand the entirety of my situation Joe was there with insight, advice and compassion. He not only understood what I was dealing with but immediately went to work to get the issue addressed and allow my side of the situation to be known. Within 24 hours I went from living a nightmare and facing criminal charges to having the charges dropped. Joe was professional, expedient, supportive, honest and diligent in handling my case. His rates were more than fair for the outstanding level of effort and commitment he delivers. Joe is a rare example of true professionalism, integrity, compassion and commitment.

Extremely professional and hands on. He thoroughly fights for you, he does his full diligence (Joe Soler) and gets the job done. He’s very meticulous, doesn’t miss a beat. I highly recommend this firm. ✅????

The best attorney I've ever dealt with. Super intelligent, compassionate, always available, and has never let me down once. Has helped with a wide variety of issues, and has charged a much better fee, for much better work. Thanks Joe, your the man. I truely appreciate, your help with me and my family.

James and his team were wonderful to our family in our time of need. They were knowledgeable, diligent, professional, and someone was always accessible for questions, concerns, and issues. Further, they were all caring and sympathetic to our situation and helped decrease anxieties and frustrations throughout the process. I always felt that we were in great hands and could depend on them. They were recommended to me by a friend and I am so glad I got that recommendation because our case turned out better than we could have hoped for. If you need someone in your corner, I highly recommend you hire this team of professionals!

There are no words to describe how thankful we are for Fowler Law Group. As someone who didn’t know much about criminal law, I was nervous when choosing a lawyer, however, as soon as I spoke to Lisa and Mr. Fowler, I knew I had chosen the right people. This team worked non-stop to make sure justice was found for our family. They were beyond professional and took the time to answer all questions and acknowledge every concern. Mr. Fowler and his group deserve the utmost respect. I would recommend them to anyone I know. Mr. Fowler is extremely intelligent in this field and will give his best effort in every case. I can personally guarantee you will not be disappointed with this team.

Mr. Fowler did a great job. He worked hard for my defense and got me the best possible out come for my case. I would recommend him to anyone.

Mr. Fowler went above and beyond to help. He was able to get my charges dismissed and is helping resolve a future issue with the case. I called him on a few different occasions and he called me back in a few minutes to answer questions and concerns. He took his time to explain exactly how the law works and what would probably be best to do in certain situations. He was very thorough and thoughtful. I would highly recommend him for any legal issues you may have.

I would highly recommend Mr. Fowler and his Team! They were fantastic every step of the way and fought hard to get us the best possible outcome for our case; Jim got us exactly what he hoped he could get for us and exceeded our expectations. They kept me regularly updated on everything throughout the process and were always extremely quick to respond to any of my questions or concerns.

I used The law offices of Baily & Baily for my child custody case. I can tell you as a father I was worried because the courts generally side with the mothers. Allen made sure I understood everything and took his time to explain the things I didn't understand. He worked diligently and his staff were very professional and always made me a priority. I would and have recomend Allen to anyone going through a divorce or a custody case. He will fight for your rights and make sure your voice is heard

I seriously can't say enough about how awesome Allan Baily is. He closed out my divorce case very quickly and professionally. When I wrote him emails or made phone calls, I had a response that day. Allan exemplifies the integrity and class that I wish every lawyer had. Even after the case was settled and done I can still call him and get advice. He is the best there is! *****

Alan did a great job and I couldn't have asked for better judgement by the Divorce Court judge, even though it took more than 3 months for his decision. I am happily a legally single man, once again. I highly recommend Baily & Baily for the legal work and administrative support from his legal assistant, Rebekah.

Very nice attorney to speak with. Professional, honest, good advice, and experienced. Will recommend to many! Thank you!

I highly recommend Mr. Baily. He took the time to really look at my case and all the variables. He is also easy to talk to and he makes sure to explain everything to you.
