My ex husband lied about having a land property and my belongings. She didn't fight for anything or did any of the investigation that I wanted her to do I had to do that on my own to move the process quicker. I ended up with nothing no alimony to get back up on my feet when this man stayed with everything! They also told me that if we won't agree at the time of mediation I would have to pay more. We ended up agreeing and now I'm seeing a bill when we didn't go past mediation. But not only that He was in charge of paying all of the lawyer fees ! I was recommended to Ashley Copley office by another lawyer in miami since my case was in highlands county. Terrible decision!

I cannot say enough positive things about Dismuke Law. I was…read moreinvolved in an auto accident just before Thanksgiving and being old school, I called other drivers insurance to get claim started and I was in need of a rental car. Well those days are gone as this company just blow me off and would not do anything to help. So I started looking online for a local attorney close to the area I live. After looking around and coming across Dismuke Law website, I remembered seeing their billboards. As I was reading about them, the online chat popped up so I stated a chat. Keep in mind I have never used an attorney for auto accident before. From the first communication I knew this was the Law firm for me. The next morning Maya contacted me a guided me through the initial paperwork and answered all my questions which there were plenty of. Then she moved me on to Marquita who was always patient and understanding to my needs and constant questions. Thank you to both of you. After that I was in contact with Mr. Garrett GAA , my attorney through this mess of insurance company BS. He was the easiest going attorney I have ever spoke to. He makes you feel like he is not better than you, just there to help. He and his staff work hard to make sure I received what was owed and don't let Auto Insurance companies take from you. Even my auto insurance, which I have been with for 36 years, was doing as little as they could to help. This was a true eye opener for me and made me see how little Auto and Health Insurance will do for you but always have their hand out for money they are not entitled to. If you don't have an attorney you could be paying bills that are not owed and will never get fair treatment as they are out for the company not you. I pray I will never need the services of Dismuke Law for an auto accident again BUT I CAN PROMISE YOU, I KNOW WHO TO CALL !!! I will always be Thankful for the guidance and professionalism I received from Mr. Garrett GAA

5 stars! I promised…read moreto update this review when the engagement was completed so here, we go. The issue was dealing with the Medicare/Medicaid bureaucracy, financial issues, emotional trauma, and logistics of putting my almost 95-year-old mother in a nursing home permanently. I've been taking care of her by myself for five years, but it was time. I am extremely capable online but after countless hours of research I knew I needed help. I threw the switch with these highly recommended folks and the entire process took a little less than two months. At first it was a great deal of work as I understandably needed to provide a substantial amount of financial documentation. Perhaps the best way I can describe how happy I was with these fine folks was the number of times I thought things like this- * OMG, I can't believe I missed that! * OMG, I never would have thought of that! * OMG, I didn't even know that existed! * OMG, that was way too much for me to handle! The folks here were professional and responsive the entire time! I wouldn't wish the position I was in on anyone, but if you need help dealing with and elderly relatives' situation, these folks are an awesome choice!

Shop Around & Get Quotes for Better Pricing & Service I am…read morewriting this personal opinion review to encourage others to shop around before contracting with Jason Penrod and Family Elder Law (FEL) - scroll to the end of this review for a list of recommended attorneys offering the same service for less than half the price of FEL. In a nutshell, my family contacted FEL for a simple irrevocable trust (IT) for the benefit of our mother who has dementia. The trust was to be funded with just 3 assets: her mobile home, car, and CDs issued from the same bank. We were quoted a price of $8000 by Mr. Penrod. We were astonished by such a high price for such a simplistic IT. However, we agreed to the price, erroneously believing that the elevated pricing included management of the trust, which we later discovered it did not. I will only state that my sister and I were very busy and in such a hurry to get the IT drafted that we did not take the time to obtain quotes from other attorneys, and that was our foolish mistake. It was not until another attorney I know in Florida told me that we could have gotten the IT (with Medicaid Asset Protection Trust (MAPT) elements) for half of what we paid Family Elder Law that I took the time to actually contact other attorney offices and verified this as true. Based upon these findings, we asked Mr. Penrod for a $3000 partial refund. Our request was denied. As such, I want to educate others and give recommendations to the following reputable, reasonably priced firms operating in the same geographical area as FEL The below quotes are for the exact same service with the exact same assets for which Family Elder Law charged us $8000. Be advised that these attorney firms are not "elder law" specialists. However, to draft the simplistic templated IT/MAPT that we received - and wishing to fund it with only 3 noncomplicated assets - an elder law specialist is not required. An estate planning attorney, or even an attorney with trust drafting experience is equally as qualified, this opinion is based upon my being a retired California attorney. Here is my recommended list, although I encourage people to contact and request quotes from other law firms as well: Ables & Craig - Sebring, FL - 50 years' experience drafting trusts - $800 vs. $8000 MacBeth J Ross - Sebring, FL - 50 years' experience specializing in estate planning - $3000 vs. $8000 Peterman & Myers - Lakeland & Winterhaven - full-service law firm in business for 60 years that has an estate planning division - $3500 vs. $8000 If your needs are elder law specific, here is a list of just some of the other elder law specialists in Florida for you to contact and obtain a quote in order to make an informed decision: Family First Firm - Medicaid & Elder Law Attorneys - Winter Park, FL among other locations in FL Flammia Elder Law Firm - Winter Park, FL Waldoch & Mcconnaughhay - Tallahassee, FL (2018, 2020, & 2023 Elder Law Attorney of the Year) Hemness Faller Elder Law - Brandon, FL (2017 & 2021 Elder Law Attorney of the Year) Boyer & Boyer - Sarasota, FL (2024 Elder Law Attorney of the Year) Heuler, Wakeman, Solomon Law Group - Tallahassee, FL (2019 Elder Law Attorney of the Year) Britton G. Swank P.A. - Elder Law Atty - Ft. Meyers and Lehigh Acres, FL (2022 Elder Law Attorney of the Year) Selis Law Firm - multiple locations in Florida (2016 Elder Law Attorney of the Year) FEL did not live up to our expectations, and for that additional reason I do not recommend this firm. Please be advised that this review is solely and exclusively my personal opinion and impression of the experience that my family received using Mr. Penrod's and FEL's services - it is not intended to be libelous or defamatory, nor is it intended to cause reputational harm to Mr. Penrod or his firm. I simply want to encourage people to potentially save themselves thousands of dollars and receive good legal service by doing what we didn't do: get quotes from other attorneys and then decide who was the best fit for our needs.
