At Advocate Law Firm, P.A., our attorneys fight tirelessly for our clients and their best interests. Representing, protecting, and defending families in our community is a responsibility that we take seriously. As such, we strive to offer exceptional counsel tailored to the individual needs and goals of our clients.
Whether I am handling same-sex divorce, personal injury, or criminal defense matters my end goal is always the same: to provide the high-caliber legal representation my clients need and deserve. As a Bartow divorce attorney with over 20 years of experience, I am completely dedicated to the needs of my clients.
Few things in life are more important than family. This is why when a family-related legal issue arises, our emotions can get ahold of our sound judgment. If you are facing a family law issue, it is essential that you hire an experienced Polk County divorce attorney to guide you. I, Melissa A. Wilson, can help you make smart and informed decisions regarding your family's future.
Choosing to end your marriage is no easy decision, but it is often the right decision for everyone involved. However, the divorce process can become emotionally charged and overwhelming. If you are ready to file for divorce, you need to speak with a caring and hard-hitting Bartow divorce lawyer such as myself.
Oftentimes, people cite divorce as the worst time in their lives, likening it to war. This is because the divorcing parties often cannot seem to stop hurting each other, even in their efforts to separate permanently.

However, when a couple is ready to amicably put an end to their relationship, this is known as collaborative divorce--in which you will still need to enlist the guidance and care of a Lakeland divorce attorney such as ours at Advocate Law Firm, P.A.If you and your future ex-spouse hope to avoid traumatic court disagreements, collaborative divorce is for you.

Never I mean Never use this law firm. We were treated like criminals. We came to them for family law. They belittled my 25 year old daughter. Spoke to them many times never changed anything. We head to remind then of stuff so the bill was crazy for a case that does not warrant this much activity if they knew what they were doing. Another attorney was vey bothered by what they did for us and what they actually charged us. We have fired them. Message me if you are using them and have a compliant as you can come with us on the journey of making sure this does not happen to others. In a very short

There was never a time that I was alone in my divorce process. The staff/team was in contact communication with me. Any questions, concerns or issues I may have had, they were front and center ready to help me through the process and educate me on what the next steps were. Divorce in and of itself is a very emotional, trying and frustrating process. Martha and the rest of the team constantly kept me in the loop of all that was occurring, what was needed, any changes that were coming and how to properly handle them. Thank you so much for making a stressful and life changing event, easier to navigate

I had the best experience when she represented me in my case. She was very aggressive. She got me what I asked her for. Super professional. I have recommended her to friends and they have also retained her. Above and beyond my expectations.
