I was very pleased with his service. I had a custody case over my newborn son and Bruce was able to get me exactly what i asked for and helped me understand everything that i had questions about. Thanks again Bruce.

Zonald is superb professional under stress!
Zonald helped us strategize a last minute financial arrangement on a very serious UCCJEA case of FL & NY involving vital issues. His professionalism goes above and beyond those of other firms we consulted with prior to agreeing to obtain adequate counsel. He coordinates it all with a flair for organization & professionalism.

I hired Alberto Ayo to help me with my divorce. Alberto was always very thorough, knowledgeable and reliable. I am very satisfied with the service I received from him, and I highly recommend him for anyone that is looking for a lawyer for their divorce.

This is the best law firm I have worked with in the Tampa Bay area! I have worked with both Howard Iken and Kristal Knox and they are both great. Kristal is my current lawyer and she has been able to help me through the years with many different issues dealing with child support, alimony, visitation and other family law issues. I’m so happy I found her years ago. Although divorce isn’t a blessing finding this law firm is!

Jeana came to my family and I at a very rough time in our life. She was more then a lawyer. She was a support system, a shoulder to lean, patient, informative, tough, and compassionate. We were so blessed God directed us to her. With Jeana you can always be confident!

Howard was my lawyer during my bankruptcy and he was fantastic. Understanding, non judgemental honest and upfront… all the things we hear that lawyers aren’t. Even almost a year after my case was done with he corresponded with me through e-mail and over the phone with my questions. I would recommend him to anyone.

Ms. Belcher is an excellent attorney!!
She handled my family law case wonderfully, she was considerate and is very knowledgeable, I would definitely retain her services again if ever I needed them.
She helped me get through a very difficult time in my life .
I have gladly recommended her to family and friends.August 6, 2015
Having worked as an investigator and later in my career as a counselor for divorces gave me plenty of exposure to Lawyers. Therefore, I had a lot of resistance and fears of working with any lawyer. Therefore, I did thorough research and found Howard Iken. I must say that I have nothing but appreciation for him. His knowledge, expertise, and support are priceless. First of all he does not sell you a dream, in other words he is upfront and honest at all times. He has also been extremely assertive and a big advocate for my daughter and my rights as a father in the court room. Outside of the court room he has been extremely supportive, accessible, and informative at all times. In fact many times I would send him an email with a question and would be surprised to receive a response right away. After my past experiences working in the system he has shown me that there are excellent lawyers that truly are there for their client’s best interest.

Allison was my primary point of contact through my issue which lasted about 20 days. Allison was very attentive to my needs. She kept me informed and provided the reassurance one desires. I would highly recommend retaining this firm.

Ms. Shulte is a very intelligent, caring attorney. She assisted me in my divorce 2 years ago and just recently assisted me with terminating my child support after my ex wife passed away. When I recently called her to assist me about this she knew exactly who I was and remembered more details about my situation than I had expected. She is very quick to respond to my emails/phone calls. She is very easy to talk to. I couldn’t be happier with both of my experiences with her! If I ever need legal care again, she is undoubtedly the one I will go to!

Kristal Knox is very knowledgeable and experienced in her work. She was able to fix the issues I had been dealing with for over 5 years. Not only was she able to fix the mistakes that had been made in the past with child support in my case, but she was also able to regain me the custody to my child. Whenever I needed to get a hold of her, I was able to contact the office and speak with either her paralegal or Mrs. Know personally. Everything with my case was done in a timely manner. I would use her in the future, and recommend her to anyone needing assistance with family law issues as well. She was by-far the best attorney I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.

Mr. Ayo counseled me with due diligence and grasping the core of my case. He explained in details what my options were, always addressing my concerns, and trying to fully understand my needs. He is a very dedicated attorney, who looks at all the different angles of a litigation, trying to come up with a solution that is truly beneficial to his client.
I recommend him to those in need of legal assistance, and that are seeking personal treatment and a caring counselor.August 6, 2015
I was a little in doubt until I saw him do a deposition of my spouse. It was brutal !! From that point on everything went my way. My kids are finally safe from my drug addict wife. Nice job

At this point I have known Attorney Allison Belcher for many years and have had ample time to observe her work. Every attorney has ups and downs – no exception. Ms. Belcher’s ups vastly exceed her downs. She is always concerned about her clients and appears to be always concerned about their outcomes. She is a good, well rounded attorney that always watches out for her clients. They are never just a number to her – they are individuals that need help with a difficult situation. I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Belcher.

Howard was professional, upfront, realistic and nonjudgemental. I felt completly comfertable with him and did not have any issues reaching him during my case. I also was able to speak with him following my case over the phone, almost a year later. I was surprised to find a lawyer who was still willing to help and answer my questions after so much time had gone by. I would absolutely recomend him to anyone.
