An adoption creates a legal parent-child relationship between the adoptee and the adoptive parent(s). Florida law allows adoptions for all persons, minors and adults. Once the adoption is complete the adoptee and adoptive parent share in all rights and responsibilities as if the relationship is biological.
Adoption is one of the happier experiences in the family law division that our office completes. We happily serve every single one of these except agency or intermediary facilitated adoptions. We do not find a child for adoption and serve in this manner. However, all other adoption cases we take and enjoy.

Cosentino is a godsend. She helped calm my concerns and was extremely knowledgeable about our case and our options. She made me feel like a priority and took the time necessary to listen and help me understand what was going on and what I needed to do. Through her help the case against us was dismissed and I was able to keep custody of my beautiful daughter!

Mrs. Sanchez stepped in when another attorney was not available. I found Mrs. Sanchez to be prompt and very knowledgeable of the subject matter. She expressed care and concern about the case and was very considerate, which gave me assurance and confidence during a trying time. She comes highly recommended because of her authenticity and professionalism.

I never needed a family attorney until I found myself in the position of having to re-negotiate custody for my daughter with a difficult ex. Amy Cosentino and her team handled my case with professionalism, courtesy, and transparency. Amy was always upfront about expectations and cost. Amy has a strong desire to win for her clients, and that’s who you need on your side when dealing with these kinds of emotional cases. I am very happy with the favorable outcome for me and my daughter! Highly recommended!

I cant speak for anyone else! But I can say Amy and her team did everything they promised. The Consentino firm will fight for you within the guidelines of the LAW.
I can guarantee you that anyone that gives Amy firm a 1 star tried to win their case on lies!! I found Amy after my first attorney cost me 4k and dragged my case out 6-months with no results.
I found Amy, hired her firm and got more results in 2-months than I did within those wasted 6-months. If you are a father being railroad by the system I promise Amy is the best person to have in your corner.
She will always be honest and will

I hired 2 lawyers and endured years of frustration concerning time share with my child before finding the Law Office of Amy L Cosentino. During initial consultation Amy was knowledgeable and to the point. She is caring and sensitive with a positive energy that gave me confidence in a time of desperate need. Amy and Mike delivered more than I expected because they love their jobs and the results prove that. They continue to go above and beyond in an effort to help our community. I highly recommend the law firm of Amy L. Cosentino!

Amy Cosentino is a Five Star Family Lawyer. She represented me in my divorce case and was a strong advocate who was extremely thorough. She exceeded my expectations in getting a settlement and I recommend her without hesitation or reservation. It would be a mistake not to use her. Go no further than Amy. You found the best lawyer.

I was recommended 3 lawyers by legal aid and she was the only one to pickup the phone. My case is ongoing but has been a long and difficult one made much easier by Amy. She not only has an excellent understanding of family law and is unbiased towards men but is upfront and honest as well. Though my case has cost a fair amount of money she has truly been worth every penny and their is no one I would trust more to handle my case. The rest of her staff is also a pleasure to work with keeping me informed on my case with constant updates and being extremely reliable in facilitating information back

Amy is extrememly personable! She & her team have fought (& continue to do so) for my daughter & me. When I found Amy I was worried that living out of state would make us "out of mind" & "just a name"; Amy has been amazing! Her attention & responses to my concerns are not only timely & professional, but she also takes the time to explain the legal verbiage. Thank you for caring Amy.

Amy and her staff have worked hard and diligently to help me through my divorce and beyond. Amy has fought for my family and ensured that the proper outcomes have been achieved. I have always felt that I could call or email at any time and know that I would have a quick response. I know that with Amy handling my case, I am not alone and that she genuinely cares about seeing that my family and I have the most ethical and desirable outcome.
