I was referred to Mr. Torres to help me apply for guardianship of a family member. Living out of town and dealing with a attorney via the phone was scary. From day one Mr. Torres was there for me. He answered all my calls and kept me informed every step of the way. It has been such a blessing and a true professional experience to work with Mr. Torres. Thank you Mr. Torres !

Mr. Torres represented me in my divorce. Though normally a painful ordeal, Mr. Torres guided me through the separation, child visitation planning, mediation, and through the final decree. He kept me focused and positive. I appreciated his calmness, skill, and positivity. I highly recommend this attorney.

I went through several attorneys before I finally found Mario Torres. Unlike most of the others he did his homework and learned the issues specific to my case. He advised me on what was legally realistic. And he fought vigorously for me. I hope I am not in need of an attorney too often in the future, but if I am it will be Mario Torres.

I was actually impressed Mario took his time explaining the answers to my real estate questions, in detail, to where he went online and not only reviewed some information with me but also encouraged me to read more into it. No complaints here. Will use him again soon.

Mario was precise in describing the steps of the process. He was with me throughout the entire process and there was never a time I felt like I was going at it alone. His knowledge and understanding of Florida's legal process was superb.
