I’ve retained Syed for counsel three times over the last 5 years. My cases have consisted of THE WORSE family law issues. Through each detail of domestic violence, child abuse, felonies, misdemeanors, marital debts, child support, and every other ugly issue, Syed has been honest, upfront, detail oriented, realistic, caring, and always fought for my child and I with his best. Nothing but great things to say about this attonrey. His integrity speaks volumes of his character. His staff has been consistent year after year, you can expect to receive fair treatment and consistency.
Incredibly knowledgeable and does not price gouge you! I had a horrible situation where my Ex-husband refused to return my daughter from his timeshare. I was in a panic. My previous attorney raked me over the coals with outrageous fees! I didn’t not have anyone in my corner. I contacted Syed and he had a precise response that was exactly what was needed! He filed an Emergency order and my daughter was home the next night. I can’t say enough about his knowledge of the law, his experience, and compassion!
Mr. Ahmed represented me during my high-conflict divorce which began in 2017 and finally ended in 2019. My divorce from a difficult and uncooperative spouse was extremely stressful, and included several attempts at mediation, depositions, multiple motions, and several hearings before the final hearing. My ex hired an extremely unpleasant and aggressive attorney who did his best to intimidate me at every opportunity. With Mr. Ahmed representing my interests, that did not happen. Mr. Ahmed is a skilled professional. He is honest and pragmatic from the first consultation and truly cares about the welfare of his clients. He calmly and efficiently handled every aspect of my case, demonstrated incredible integrity in his practice of law, and provided grounded advice and guidance during an incredibly difficult time. Mr. Ahmed is poised, articulate, and aggressive in both his communication with opposing counsel, and in the court room. He is an extremely fast, logical, and analytic thinker, and was able to catch my ex in financial inconsistencies that resulted in a favorable settlement for me in the end. Being a single mom of three, earning a teacher's salary, and divorcing a narcissistic individual from a wealthy family was not an easy situation to be in. Syed ensured that my children and I were provided for throughout the extensive proceedings, and he persisted until the Final Judgement awarded me alimony, support, and a fair division of assets and liabilities. I will continue to rely upon Mr. Ahmed to represent my interests in future family law issues. If you are looking for a skilled, energetic, aggressive, and most importantly honest attorney who is experienced in dealing with high-conflict divorce with children, I would strongly encourage you to call Mr. Ahmed.
Has been my attorney for the past two years, helping me with divorce, domestic violence and junctions, custody issues… To name a few. He and his team are not only compassionate and caring, but efficient and extremely knowledgeable. He has an impeccable reputation with the courts and neighboring attorneys. He’s aggressive when you need him to be, and very effective. Along with all that, he’s fair with pricing. He’s not a penny pincher that is going to charge you for every second or sentence. I am so very thankful to have had syed and his team represent me these past two years. By far the best family law attorney in Tampa
Syed was very knowledgeable and a great resource during my divorce. He listened to my concerns but impressed upon me the correct steps to take and the patience required in order to get the best result for me and my family. Highly recommend!
Divorce is difficult, even if it goes well. My divorce was very challenging and working with Syed and his team was about as positive an experience as I could have imagined. Syed is professional, extremely knowledgeable and both he and his team respond quickly to those personal "emergency" emails. Also of importance is that Syed is able to help dial down the tension and emotion that are bound to occur during such emotional negotiations. I do not plan to ever remarry ;) but if I did make that mistake I would definitely keep Syed's number close at hand.
All I can say... He is really amazing. He explained everything. He did everything. Thanks so much, Atty Syed for everything!
My case was a unique case that I assume many lawyers do not come across. Syed Ahmed did an excellent job at achieving our goal and having a sense of humor whilst doing so. I left with a more than favorable outcome and for that I am grateful. I would recommend him to anyone.
Mr. Ahmed was exceptional in representing my case to protect my children and getting divorce . he was very helpful to get the passport for minor children .His office was prompt on case followups.I would recommend him for all of the family law needs.
Attorney Syed and his staff have always exuded the utmost professionalism. The advisement and litigation skills portrayed by the team were extremely accurate and sensitive to our needs. I would definitely recommend Attorney Syed to anyone in a divorce or family law case.
