A steady and experienced hand through a difficult divorce

I hired Mr. Katz to represent me in a complex divorce involving a family business and significant assets. His decades of experience in Florida family law were immediately apparent. He was a calm, strategic presence who cut through the emotional noise and focused on practical outcomes. I specifically sought him out because of his AV Preeminent rating, which speaks to his long-standing reputation, and that trust was well-placed. His guidance on navigating business valuation and equitable distribution was invaluable. The process was stressful, but having someone of his caliber, recognized by organizations like Global Law Experts, gave me immense confidence. While his expertise is top-tier, communication response times could occasionally be a day or two slower than I'd have liked during less critical phases. Overall, he secured a very fair settlement, and I would recommend him to anyone needing a seasoned attorney for a high-stakes family law matter.
