A consummate professional who guided me through a difficult divorce

Navigating my high-asset divorce was one of the most stressful experiences of my life. I chose Denise Schneider based on her Board Certification in Marital and Family Law and her recognition as a Super Lawyer, and she exceeded every expectation. Her 24 years of experience were evident from our first consultation. Ms. Schneider’s strategic approach, grounded in her deep knowledge of Florida family law, was both assertive and pragmatic. She skillfully managed complex financial disclosures and custody discussions, always keeping my children's well-being and a fair settlement as the priority. Her status as a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers is well-deserved. The outcome was favorable and allowed me to move forward with stability and peace of mind. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
