Client Testimonials

I want to thank Kate Mesic for representing me in court over the last two months. I feel very fortunate to have found Kate Mesic when I was in such a desperate need of legal guidance. Her professionalism and expertise gave me the assurance and security I needed to know that things were going to be alright in light of such a difficult case. From very beginning to the end, I never felt alone while my case was open and always felt that I had an aggressive and knowledgeable lawyer watching my back. Any question I had was always promptly answered. Her hard work ensured a more than favorable result with all charges being dropped. I highly recommend Kate Mesic to anyone who should need legal services. She is the BEST!- Allen

On two separate occasions I have hired Mrs. Mesic to represent me criminal charges. The first was a high fine/substantial point speeding ticket, and the second was a criminal citation for driving while license suspended. In both instances Mrs. Mesic was able to get the charges dismissed with no penalties. She was dedicated to my case, always kept me informed each step of the way, and genuinely cared about the outcome. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through legal issues.- Ray

I am extremely happy with the outcome- Ashley

When our out-of-state child was wrongfully charged with some misdemeanor infractions we found Kate through a referral and I became very impressed with Kate's experience, diligence and knowledge of the local courts. She was extremely responsive and thorough to our questions and concerns. She seems to know everyone in the Duval County Court House.- Former Client
-
I found Kate through a friend who had used her in the past. As the alleged "victim" of a criminal case, she took my requests very seriously and helped ensure I got the outcome I wanted vs. what the state wanted to happen. She understood my concerns and protected me in the court from being asked any questions. She had everything dismissed and resolved in less than a week. I am extremely happy with the outcome and will always recommend her to people.- Former Client
