"If anyone can accomplish the best case scenario for someone seeking legal services, it is her. I highly recommend Ms. Kate Mesic."Kate Mesic is a highly skilled, industrious expert attorney who works hard for her clients. After a referral, I called her and explained my situation, asking her opinion about how to proceed. She listened attentively and was professionally sympathetic while also clearly laying out the options for me. When my husband and I decided to hire her, we quickly learned that she was always at the top of her game, immediately responsive to our needs, and was clear and committed in her decision-making. Ms. Mesic is a pro at handling tough situations and difficult individuals. She dealt easily with our opposing party, smoothly sailing through the challenges he presented. What I found particularly compelling about working with Ms. Mesic was her honest, straightforward approach. She clearly has a fine-tuned knowledge about the workings of the law, and when I asked her advice she would be straightforward with me about potential outcomes. She certainly could have proceeded in ways that would have drawn out the proceedings and ultimately cost us more, but instead she was frank and open about where we should compromise. I appreciated this and believe it resulted in the best possible results in our situation. Ms. Kate Mesic’s expertise and legal ability were evident throughout our time working with her. She is a consummate professional with a hard driving work ethic, and immediately knows how to respond to any legal obstacle in her path. If anyone can accomplish the best case scenario for someone seeking legal services, it is her. I highly recommend Ms. Kate Mesic.- Jennifer

"Kate was extremely prompt with her assistance. She was able to get the best possible resolve working with the prosecution."We contacted Ms. Mesic upon a recommendation from a friend in Tampa. Our issue was with regard to a felony case in Jacksonville. Kate was extremely prompt with her assistance. She was able to get the best possible resolve working with the prosecution. The case was ultimately dropped. She would consistently keep in touch with us regarding her work on the case and giving us updates on her progress. No only is she a wonderful lawyer she is also a wonderful person. Very personable and easy to work with.- Kathy

"To Thine own self be true, Thy will not mine:"Wow, Wow, Wow. Kate Mesic and her law firm is nothing short of amazing, her presence and professionalism spoke for herself in volumes. I was sited for DUI on 15 Aug 2019, and finalized 20 July 2020 (I know along time, COVID shutdown Mar 20). I was able to maintain my drivers license during the whole process (with exception of one week), waiting as she challenged the DMV (DMV hearing). During the hearing with her systematic and efficient approach with evidence she provided, the DMV found insufficient evidence (DMV was saying second offence, DUI dropped from reckless 2000, I know almost 20 yrs, but that is how the law is written), and I was able to keep my license . During this process with her diligence engaging with the prosecuting attorney (20 July 20), my charges were dropped to reckless driving as well as being able to take an online course to reduce the ticket. Did I mention I lived in a different County? Brevard Thank you so much to Kate and Shirley (her assistant) , for treating me like family and fighting for me and my family. As my drivers license was/is detrimental with my work and assisting in other family matters (I have an Autistic Grandson). Their professionalism during this unpresented time in our country was/ is beyond reproach. They never stopped caring, fighting or believing in me, words of thank you will never be enough. If you are in trouble, distraught or on the other side of the law, Kate Mesic's law firm is whom you would want in your corner. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Thank you again to you and Ms. Shirley, I could never repay you enough.- Allen H

Kate was a wonderful resource to me as she reviewed and advised me on the real estate purchase agreement, mortgage loan contract, contractor's agreement, and produced a comprehensive rental agreement allowing me to rent out my previous office space. Kate is extremely bright, prompt to respond and always provides the right advice to me. She carefully explains everything in a way that I can understand. If you are a small business owner in Jacksonville, FL I highly recommend you to meet Kate.

"She was dedicated to my case, always kept me informed each step of the way, and genuinely cared about the outcome."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

"Ms. Mesic as has offered very practical legal advice that has been a benefit to me in other areas."I retained Ms. Mesic to advise and ultimately represent me on a civil matter. I have never needed the services of a lawyer and was terrified at the prospect. She impressed me with her deep knowledge in the field, her genuine interest and compassion in my case and her professionalism during consultation and representation. Her staff is top notch, very welcoming and thorough. Through Ms. Mesic's efforts my case was settled better than I could have ever expected. Since then, Ms. Mesic as has offered very practical legal advice that has been a benefit to me in other areas. I highly recommend Ms. Mesic as an attorney and as counsel. There is not a doubt in my mind that she will do an excellent job for you.- Ron T.

"I am so grateful that Kate has been in our lives at this very, very difficult and dangerous time."I cannot say enough good things about Kate Mesic's professional and personal knowledge of the subject and willingness to pursue all avenues to solve this terrible problem for my family. Not only is she extremely organized and logical in her thinking and her approach, but she is able to motivate and encourage her clients in the most depressing situations, able to help them see exit strategies from overwhelming circumstances, and can somehow enable self-help for the clients. I am so grateful that Kate has been in our lives at this very, very difficult and dangerous time.- Juliette
