Client Testimonials

"My case was complicated and was not leaning towards my favor... I thank the lord for meeting Mrs. Mesic."When I met Mrs. Mesic It was for a DUI. I had never been in trouble with the law like this before, and my life as I knew it was over. Mrs. Mesic broke down the legal jargon, helped me understand , and fought for my case. My case was complicated and was not leaning towards my favor. Mrs. Mesic and her team worked my DUI case down to reckless driving, probation, and some community service. I thank the lord for meeting Mrs. Mesic, and for the people responsible for introducing her into my life. I would recommend Mrs. Mesic with similar cases no questions asked.- Former Client

"One of the best"She was there every step of the way with any questions I may have had and pushed for my case to be dropped and believed in me.- Former Client

"As my lawyer, she was very encouraging and kept great communication as she made herself available to contact for questions, updates, etc."From the start, she was honest and quite informational about my case, how she can help, and my options. Unlike other offices I had contacted, she did not come across as a sales person. She was very quick to gather information and thoroughly answer all my questions, as well as clearly explain the legal process I was to undergo, which was exactly what I needed in my emotionally disheveled state. As my lawyer, she was very encouraging and kept great communication as she made herself available to contact for questions, updates, etc. Initially, I was clearly informed how payment was for services rendered, not for the result of the case, though my case ended with the best possible outcome. I am very appreciative of all her hard work and effort in my case and I would gladly work with her again and recommend her services to anyone in need of them.- David

"Kate is one of a kind! Her ethics, drive, expertise and support was impressive and reassuring to both my son and myself."While my adult son was in town over the Christmas holiday, he was pulled over for driving without his headlights on after dark. (The Valet parking at his hotel had turned them off of auto.) He had consumed a few drinks over the course of the evening and the police officer asked him to do the breathalyzer test. When my son refused, he was taken to jail. I received a call from my daughter-in-law, early the next morning. I called Kate, as I had met her a few times and was impressed by her work ethic, knowledge of the law, professionalism and "humanness" . She was at home at the time of my call, but pulled up the arrest report etc. She told me what time the hearing before the judge was to be that afternoon and said she would meet me at the building where the hearing was to be. (Did I mention this was a Saturday morning?) By the time I arrived, Kate had already spoken to my son, collecting information necessary as she went along. When the judge entered his Chambers, Kate approached him immediately, asking that he hear my son's case first, for reasons that she had already informed us of. Already, I'm impressed, but it only got better. Because Kate is so motivated to help her clients, is extremely intelligent, and has extensive knowledge and understanding of the law and the system's processes, she proactively met with the Prosecutor and was able to get the charges reduced to a lesser charge. This resulted in a SIGNIFICANTLY better outcome for my son. Kate went above and beyond what she was paid to do, in many ways. One of which was letting my son know, in no uncertain terms, the seriousness of this matter and exactly what he needed to do to follow the exact rules of the law. She let him know exactly what the consequences would be, should he not. She kept in touch with my son the whole step of the way; consulting, counseling and yes, checking, to make sure he stayed on track with dates and responsibilities. Yes, Kate is one of a kind! Her ethics, drive, expertise and support was impressive and reassuring to both my son and myself. She is No. 1 in Northeast Florida, as far as we are concerned. I am confident if we have the opportunity to work with this wonderful attorney again, it will under different circumstances, but the end results will be the same.- Cynthia

"I cannot express my or my daughter's thankfulness for such a skilled lawyer!"Kate assisted my daughter get out of jail in less than three days due to a very old Domestic warrant! She worked key judicial issues regarding the Domestic Warrant with the courts and maneuvered through the justice system with great diligence and aptitude! At the same time she also helped get my daughter out of a traffic ticket with no points against her driving record. I cannot express my or my daughter's thankfulness for such a skilled lawyer! I would definitely recommend her services and will definitely use her legal talents again!- John

"If your looking for legal representation, you cannot do any better."I had a lot of concerns when I got into an accident in a construction zone and was charged with leaving the scene of an accident when no other cars we're involved. Mrs. Mesic was able to fight hard and made sure I got a favorable outcome, as well as always keeping me informed through the whole process. Even during the initial consultation it was clear that she was always going to have your best interest at heart. If your looking for legal representation, you cannot do any better.- Jason
