We were referred to this lawyer by a previous Duval county (Florida) judge after the separation of the unwed parents of a child with the indication that the mother might leave the state with the child and will not return. Florida law does not grant legal rights to an unwed father until paternity, time-sharing and shared responsibilities are established in court. Overall, I am very satisfied with the result of this temporary hearing, giving credit to Debra and Thomas Treece. We are still waiting for the final hearing and hope that the Treece law team will continue to represent us fairly and honestly. The Treece law team does not shoot for bashing the opposite party. From the beginning on, it was clear that they want a fair and honest outcome with no lies and only honesty. The reason to seek help was to fairly establish legal rights for the father and do all we can to benefit the child. The Treece law team maintained to fairly reach an agreement and asked for the continuation of the child's primary parent, which is tough to establish if it is the father who performed most parental responsibilities. One "thing" I would like to mention is that I wish that the Treece law team would be more readily available when the father has an IMMEDIATE legal question, due to the mother using unfair tactics, lies and accusations that are unwarranted. I would love to at times receive a quick, brief legal advise right then and there, though acknowledge that we are not their only clients. If you are looking for an aggressive lawyer to bash your opponent, keep looking. If you are looking for an aggressive FAIR lawyer, "fighting" for what is the honest truth and the best for the child, you found a calm legal team working for you.

Once my daughter received an order from the court, my daughter interviewed with many other attorneys. They would only allow her to talk with them. Upon meeting Mrs. Treece, I felt an immediate connection to her and Mr. Treece. In my opinion, they are like family to us. They are very approachable as well as professional. My daughter who is a new attorney herself knew this case needed experienced attorneys that would give her their best efforts. According to my daughter at trial, they did just that. Their entire staff has been amazing. I am very thankful for everything they have done and continue to do for my daughter and granddaughter!!!

My husband and I were devastated for our daughter and grandson when our son in law announced he wanted a divorce. We didn’t know how to help or who to turn to. After hiring another attorney and being completely dissatisfied, we were led to Mr Tom Treece and his wife. We could not have been happier. They were on the ball from day one. They kept everyone informed and advised our daughter at every turn. They spent hours and hours prepping her for a very difficult hearing. They never guaranteed success, but they did promise to give her their best effort. That is exactly what they did!!! When the hearing was over and before the judge announced his findings, we were completely at peace with whatever was decided because we knew everything had been said and done….My daughter and grandson were granted relocation, and we are so thankful for the wisdom and work that Mr Tom and Deborah put in. Also…a shoutout to the amazing office staff.

Mr. Treece is an attorney that I depended on during the most difficult time of my life. He took the time to carefully understand our situation and then took charge of handling the legal aspects of the situation. He made sure that everything was completed with my best interest in mind and with the best interests of my children in mind. He truly cared about our future. He was thorough and professional in all of the proceedings and in all of the paperwork. Mrs. Treece also took an interest in our case and kindly shared her wisdom and expertise in the situation as well. It has been many years since Mr. and Mrs. Treece helped my family as our legal representation, but I can truly say that I continue to be grateful for their contribution to our lives.

I never wished to find myself in the mist of divorce, Mr. & Mrs. Treece being knowledgeable & trustworthy attorneys guided me through the process. They continually stayed in touch with me which assisted in minimizing my stress. Mr. & Mrs. Treece directed my path allowing me to see “The Light at the end of the tunnel”. They were both a “Godsend”. I will forever be grateful for their services.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Thomas and Debra Treece for 32 years. I have sought legal counsel from this law firm over the years for multiple legal situations. They have provided assistance in writing my Will and have provided us with guidance in delegating Power of Attorney and Medical Surrogate for our family members. Their expertise, unwavering support and dedication over the years is unmatched. They are the epitome of professionalism and extremely knowledgable in their field of practice. I would not hesitate to recommend this law firm.

Tom and Debbie have helped my two companies and me personally navigate forming companies, buying companies and exercising my legal rights for 16 years. My favorite part of the relationship is the prompt manner in which my phone calls and emails are responded to.

I have utilized Treece and Treece for legal advice for over 25 years. They have provided wills, estate planning, power of attorney and medical surrogate legal help as well as other various legal advice. Without question they are exemplary lawyers with high level of experience and skill.. They go beyond standard expertise and they put their heart and souls into their work. They put your needs first. I am eternally grateful for the time they met me at the nursing home to help me complete my parents documents and get their legal documents in order in a quick timely fashion. Caring, professional kind attorneys which are a rare find.

What can I say?… There are truly no words that could express how I feel about tom and Debra Treece. They were literally a godsend to me. I was going through the worst custody Battle for four years when my ex-husband was trying to take my daughter from me. They stepped in and fought for me tooth and nail, till the very end , and WON! Debra was such an emotional support for me she prayed with me cried with me and encouraged me on the daily. She was my real life Deborah from the Bible. And Tom is such an amazing Attorny full of peace and composure. He knew how to talk to the judge and with the other attorneys to keep the peace and come to a fair solution. They resolved all the issues and nailed it. I truly love them and recommend them highly for all your family law needs.

I came to the law office of Debra and Thomas Treece, during the most difficult time of my life. I did not know what to do or who I could turn to. I was distraught with grief and worry and was facing a divorce but the most devastating part was a custody battle for my child. The entire office from the paralegals to the attorneys embraced me and made me feel like family. They held my hand, hug me and let me know they were there for me and my child. They not only develop a strategy to represent me aggressively they also personally reached out to me regularly and let me know what was most important to me which was the best interest of my child which was important to each and every one of them. When you hire the law office of Treece and Treece you hire a highly experienced superior and efficient law team but also a team of people who have high integrity and compassion. I am so grateful that I was lead to them because they gave their all to my case and help me and my daughter through this most difficult time with grace and dignity. I can not thank them enough!!
