About
I am passionately committed to working with families in crisis, and work very hard to quickly achieve the best possible results in each case. I recognize that it can be quite difficult for people to get along, and believe that it is better to be FROM a broken home, than to be IN one. It's also better to be alone than to be with the wrong person. I have my own private practice, which has always focused exclusively on family matters. It's so important not to mess around with someone else's family, so I spend my time trying to be the best family lawyer I can be. I love working with families through very difficult and emotional situations. If I can make a difference to better a person's life, then I feel I am successful. Before private practice, I served as an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Florida in the Child Support Enforcement Division. I represented the Department of Revenue on issues of paternity and child support, whether establishment, modification or enforcement, intrastate and interstate. There were also a few international cases in my division. I handled approximately 6,000 files at any given time, and had my hands on at least 200 case files a week. I spent most of my time in court, and it was rare for me to be in the office.I am currently a member in good standing of the Florida Bar, with past membership in the Florida Trial Lawyers Association, Marrital Lawyers Association and Broward Bar Association.I received my law degree from St. Thomas University School of Law. My undergraduate work was completed at the University of Miami, with a double major in Political Science and Broadcast Journalism.I raise Border Collies - sheep dogs - they are my children. I love the beach, movies, music, travel and football. I also believe there is nothing better in this world than sitting at a table with friends and family, having good food, great conversations and LOTS of laughs!

Nancy was able to streamline my divorce and made it as quick and easy as possible. Highly recommend.
Nancy is a great divorce attorney. She helped me with my divorce . She is friendly, helpful and professional. She is a wonderful person.
Nancy is a great lawyer, listens to your wants and needs and puts them in perspective as to the work she is doing for you. I have been putting off for many years getting the necessities completed. She made it very easy for me and made great suggestions. She is very organized and let me know what information to have with me, things to think about and a list to go by. Efficiency!! I felt very at ease with Nancy, like talking to a friend. I would highly recommend her.
Excellent lawyer.... She is very friendly and warm. Here caring is genuine and she goes the extra mile.
Nancy was insightful and such a great help to me. She provided solid advice and analysis of the issues throughout my divorce. She explained the financial part and helped me with the emotional side of the custody issues
In a stressful time requiring litigation, Nancy has brought a sense of relief in my life knowing that she is in my corner defending me like she would defend herself. I am beyond satisfied with Nancy's brilliance, skills, attentiveness, work ethics, accessibility, and dedication . She is always well prepared and communicates regularly keeping you informed. She works efficiently and effectively all the while giving you the time and attention you need to ensure your questions are answered, that you receive timely updates and that you have the best possible strategy in place. I would recommend her over and over again.
As I had a very stressful and traumatic divorce for domestic violence and involving custody of my son (at time 1 year old) I could rely completely on the knowledge and experience of Dr. Adkins. She was by my side in every single moment and could get my rights and my ex-husband's obligations in place for a new beginning. I am forever grateful and recommended her already for friends that had to go thru the same path. She is confident, strong, extremely competent and beyond fair. Thanks a lot for all that you've done for me and my son.
Every lawyer should be like Nancy Adkins. She actually cares about her clients and wants the best possible results for them. She doesn't nickel and dime you. She doesn't drag out things for more money like many other lawyers out there do. She is fair, honest and knowledgeable. I used her for my divorce back in 2013. Six months later I was divorced with a very fair MSA reached via mediation. I needed a lawyer again recently and did not hesitate to contact and hire her once again.
My overall experience with family law attorney Nancy Adkins has been a pleasure. I had a few issues with child support and custody/visitation rights with my son. Although we didn't gain what we had sought out for initially we did break ground with visitation rights and my child support has been lowered. The reason for high ratings is because Nancy did fight for my child and myself. There was a lot of hearings and every time Mrs.Atkins was there going over what to expect and had a plan. Their is no other option for me when it comes to a family law attorney. I will have Nancy Atkins represent me anytime. If you are looking for a attorney for fathers rights Nancy is an excellent attorney.
The ONLY issue I had with Nancy as my counsel is that I didn't always have the same info that my husband had at the same time. It seems I had to glean information from his camp instead of from my own. Other than that I was pleased by the outcome of my case and by working with Nancy. I would highly recommend her in the future.
