All they want is money!! I don’t understand those good reviews about Carmen Soto. She only contact you for money related otherwise she has her assistant working for her. Stay away from them. If you don’t pay them all before the hearing they will withdraw and drop the case no matter what!!. It is not true the fact that you can pay in several payments They don’t give a S about you as a client . Lourdes is very unprofessional and very rude. They won’t fight for you aggressively enough and they will delay response to motions, or filing motions.

I sent a message waiting for an appointment. Never answered. Then I had to call her to schedule an appointment. The day of the appointment was canceled and his assistant did not know what to tell me. That is to professional?

Do not use this firm. They will drop you for 1 late payment. Even though you call ahead to inform you will be only about 1 week late because of the holidays. They then lied about trying to make numerous attenpts to reach me. Only sent me an email telling me they will be dropping me. Horrible communication skills. Use another firm who actually is compassionate and sympathetic towards their clients because this one isn't.

I did not speak with Carmen but her paralegal. I was apprehensive about speaking with a a paralegal and not an attorney although I know paralegals do a lot of case studies for attorneys.She gave me such good advice and made me feel confident about an upcoming hearing. If I have to retain Carmen I would do so just from speaking with the paralegal as she advised me with my matter I didn't even need an attorney! What attorney turns away business?! One that is interested in helping others! I just hope the advice on to get it dismissed works but if not it was explained to me that a separate case would have to be opened anyways closing the one that has been keeping me up at night! Thanks for your advice I'm looking forward to putting it in action!

Carmen and her team are absolutely amazing. I highly recommend her. We’ve delt with other family attorneys before and she’s hands down the best. She was very understanding and compassionate. Extremely honest and straightforward which is amazing to find in an attorney. Her and her team were all hands in, trying to find the best outcome (which they did). I will definitely be working with them again.

Ms. Soto is an exceptional attorney. I have nothing but good things to say about Carmen Soto and her team. I felt 100% comfortable and taken care of during the entire process. She is very thorough, knowledgeable and efficient. I recommend her services to anyone going through a divorce or any family issue needing a lawyer.

I retained Ms. Soto to help me with a case. She was very compassionate and easy to talk with and straightforward. She explained the process at a level that eased understanding. She gave me all the options and the pros and cons and worked with me to make the best decisions for me and my personal situation. It was extremely helpful to have such and open and honest dialogue with an attorney. Her professionalism and caring demeanor was comforting during a turbulent transition in my life. I found the staff to be professional and committed to excellence. The firm aims to do their very best for every client. The process of working with their office was professional and seamless. I would work with her and her team again without hesitation.

To anyone that is going through a divorce, I understand very well how important it is to choose the right attorney.
I live in NYC and my wife moved to Florida. She did not let me see my son for almost 5 years. I did not know what to do, so I had to fly out to Florida to fight for visitation as well as a divorce.
I spoke to many attorneys but ultimately I decided to go with Allison.
I can’t begin tell you how lucky I was for choosing her.
My ex wife was a very difficult person to deal with, and her lawyer was even worse. Luckily Allison took control of the situation very quickly, always outsmarting the both of them and being two steps ahead. My ex’s lawyer was acting like I had no chance in seeing my son and was constantly bragging that he was going to win this case.
When I originally started the divorce, I was absolutely convinced it was going to be never ending but Allison assured me that I would be seeing my son and finalizing the divorce within a few months. To my surprise, that was exactly what happened. My ex׳s lawyer eventually gave up and I got to see my son! This was a very stressful and emotional time for me but Allison and her entire firm supported me in every way possible.
I am proud to say I have finalized my divorce about a month ago and have since, been able to speak to my son everyday and see him. I still can’t believe I am done.
Big thank you to Allison!
She is just an incredible attorney and an amazing person
Again, thank you so much to all of you. I will definitely be recommending this team to anyone else I know of that’s going through a divorce down there in Florida.

I do not recommend this lawyer with their work staff, they are some incopetentes, my husband and I were with them and the only thing they did was take money did not solve anything and when I play to go to the audience they left the case, if nothing matters ... no they have no compassion for their clients they only see for more and more money ... we feel cheated .... the worst of professionals

Well, first and foremost, absolutely the best experience I received from this firm. The moment I sat down for my FREE CONSULTATION with Allison, I was astonished by how poised she was in assisting me with legal advice. The fact that she possessed a smile throughout our entire conversation and made me laugh, put me at ease with meeting with a lawyer for the first time ever in my lifetime. I will always refer this firm to anyone seeking legal help.

I'm a professional I've worked in the law and and have had my own practice for for about 16 years doing divorces bankruptcies evictions and it was quote it that a man that has himself for a client is a fool, So I decided while I was going through my divorce to take the emotion and the personal out of the transaction and let another professional handle it. to say professional is an understatement because Allison Bishow has been more than just my attorney she became a great friend and Confidant throughout this entire process and took a lot of the emotion out of the situation for me making it just a little bit more tolerable to go through. Allison and the staff Carmen Soto Law Firm were very attentive to every phone call and email that I sent I cannot thank her and the entire staff enough kudos to Allison for such a wonderful job.

After meeting with Carmen Soto in her office for a consultation, she reassured me that she would be able to handle my case. And not only did she exceed my expectations, she accompanied me with every step. Her staff made the process as simple as possible and they all were very knowledgeable as well as friendly. Having Ms. Soto at my hearing eased any worries I thought I would have. She clearly is one of the best attorneys I have encountered. I would HIGHLY recommend her! Thank you Carmen!

Ms. Soto is by far the best attorney out there. She was able to give me peace of mind from day one that I walked into her office. Her reassurance and kind words not only helped lift me up but also gave me hope. I was able to move on with my life and resolve all my issues with her her help, guidance, and representation. I would only recommend her as she is a one of a kind attorney. She always answers her calls and emails immediately.Her staff is very professional and always helpful. If you need an amazing attorney, look no further, you couldn't ask for a better attorney than Ms. Soto.

My wife Maribeth, needed a great Family Law Attorney. After interviewing several who were recommended, we feel very fortunate she engaged Carmen Soto. Carmen, is not only professionally skilled in the law, she is a wonderful, down to earth human being. Who immediately put us at ease, by making the alien legal system, somewhat less intimidating. She has years of experience and is respected by the entire Legal community (Attorneys and Judges alike). Attorney Soto, was Maribeth's personal advocate who had her back.

We recommend Attorney Soto, to all in need of a great Family Lawyer.

I was ordered 20 years of $1500 in alimony payment, 3 years $351 in child support and $11,000 of wife’s attorney fees and only had 28% shared custody by the General Majesty. I was doomed. I found Carmen two days after. Carmen said to me day one lets do this and this and we will try to turn this around. Four months later the results were better than expected. $193 child support for 3 years; no alimony no fees to wifes attorney (zero), 50% custody, and the wife pays for the health insurance. Check the math, thats a boatload of money she saved me.

I highly recommend Carmen, Laura, and Sara to anyone looking to defend themselves in a divorce. I was so screwed I still can’t believe it. I couldn’t sleep at night, I was super stressed all day, couldn’t focus, I was horrified. Zyquil couldn't put me to sleep.

Carmen and her team basically saved my life. I saw first hand Carmen shred my wife’s arrogant-snobby Boca attorney into pieces. She was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable thoughout the entire process. I was well informed. ya pDO NOT HESISTATE. I highly recommend Carmen, Laura, and Sara!

Alison Bishop and Lourdes Martinez are actual life savers. I came to Carmen Soto’s law office the day after my Ex-Husband had asked for a divorce and they completely calmed my nerves about the whole Divorce process. I wasn’t expecting to get such kind treatment and it was honestly so refreshing, especially since my situation was a little complex and we had a couple bumps in the road. They were always extremely professional, caring and on top of everything. With my job I’m not able to take a lot of days off to meet, so Lourdes really worked with me and was so flexible with everything. Every question I had they answered promptly! I also was expecting to be married for a lot longer because I’ve heard divorce was such a nightmare and the process takes forever. Welp, nope. You can’t always believe what you hear! I was divorced within 5 months, and that’s with a lot of setbacks! Alison really made me feel comfortable during the actual court date with her preparedness and how calm she was. They even reached out to me after the court date to see how everything was. Truthfully, the whole team at Carmen Soto’s Law Office are INCREDIBLE and I will ONLY refer them to my friends that are in needs of their services (I also carry around two of their cards in my wallet). I can’t thank them enough for making this stressful situation comfortable for me and getting me exactly what was needed out of my case. I really am beyond thankful for everyone at the law office for being so kind and incredible. Be smart with your investments and your future. This is the law office you need to go to. No question about it.

PLEASE do yourself a favor and look no further! This team is dedicated, compassionate, competent, responsive, quick, efficient and effective. Words can't begin to explain how satisfied I am with the services from Carmen and her crew. Every single person in this law office treated me with respect and treated my situation with compassion. Throughout the entire process my attorney, and everyone else in the office were extremely communicative, they replied to my emails quickly, they always answered the phone, I never had even a single bad moment in my 11 months working with them. I literally could not be happier with my experience as well as the results of my case. Due to the circumstances of my case I knew I had a very small chance of winning, some other attorneys recommended that I not even try to fight it, and after doing research I knew myself that it was very unlikely that I would win my case, however I decided to fight and Carmen and her team decided to fight with me and I did in fact with my case! The end result was far better than I could have ever anticipated! I got a very favorable judgement and was reunited with my son! I know this may sound dramatic, however I can honestly say that deciding to work with Carmen and her team ended up being one of the best decision I have ever made in my life!

I wanted to write this review long time ago, never too late to share my experience about Attorney Soto and her firm with everyone who may need legal help and support and, don’t have a direction to go. I had the great opportunity and blessing for the office of Attorney Carmen Soto to represent me; I only have an enormous gratitude of Attorney Soto and her firm, the outstanding and professional job, I still can’t believe they make it possible for me. For that, I will always be grateful. I am a mother of 4 kids. I came with a small budget and an old complicated case from Texas which more than 4 attorneys here In south Florida discouraged me to file it since was an "irremediable" case. Attorney Soto was always aware of all the details of my case, very understanding and kind. Her experience, knowledge and confidence in the case bring back my lost hope in this irremediable closed case. Only God knows what my family and I got through for many years, they changed our life and bring to us justice, peace and closure to our family. We have also very thankful with Attorney Allie Bishow, she walks very close with us in this journey. Her diligence, kindness, patient and understanding in this kind of scenarios is a blessing. My 11 years old kid is happy and grateful kid as well and, we all own this to Attorney Soto, Attorney Bishow and their efficient and courteous staff. THANK YOU!

After experiencing four attorneys in a singular divorce, I can confidently attest to this office being the absolute best I’ve worked with. Their interest is in justice for their client, not profit. Service truly focused on quality and client interests. Truth be told, I wasn’t the easiest client at times, with great odds stacked against my case. However, regardless of conflict or struggle, the service provided was consistently outstanding. If this office isn’t your lawyers office you’re gonna wish they were!

Carmen, Lourdes and the entire office staff are professional and aggressive, yet the most genuine and caring attorneys I have dealt with. Not only did they win the case, they were able to get a judgement that went far beyond anything I would have expected. Even after this case is completed, they still respond to questions and work on the case, as things come up, without ever asking for additional money. I would strongly recommend Carmen Soto to anyone needing an attorney...especially a divorce attorney!

The truth look for other options do not come to waste your time and money with this lawyer because at first they told him that he had to pay an amount for the case and in the end he had to pay more an the case was not resolver in a court but rather does not take seriousness in the case.

I had the great opportunity for the office of Attorney Carmen Soto to represent me; the good work and the kindness of the whole team made this trip easy, fast and with the best terms; Attorney Carmen was always aware of all the details of my case. her experience and knowledge made me feel safe and protected, now also, I would fall short explaining the importance that the Paralegal Lourdes gave to my case, making me feel supported and with knowledge of everything at all times; Melissa is a person who always looks for solutions and facilitates any communication and with a beautiful attitude, just a Sara and other members work as a team that supports and seeks the best in the same direction; it was a great decision to have chosen this wonderful team that does its work effectively and humanely with great warmth and its greatest impulse is to achieve the best for the client.

I hired a company to perform professional services at my home. Unfortunately, they were unable to perform according to our agreement and were reluctant to stand by their contract. I obtained the services of M. Soto who reviewed the contract, interpreted it to me clearly so I understood my rights. Ms. Soto made contact and to my delight was effective in having my deposit returned as well as expenses reimbursed. She's an amazing advocate and very skilled in her profession. Additionally, the ease to which this was handled speaks highly of the smooth, professional well-run office behind this results-driven professional. Highly recommended if you want results!

I highly recommend carmen. Went to her for help with a civil matter as she was recommended to me by a friend who just went through a divorce. She allowed me to explain everything and took the time to go over my options. What I appreciated most was that she did not just tell me what she could do but how she could do it in a way that I could understand. I went to other firms to get consultations and I was not treated the same. Even better, her team was really attentive and welcoming. Go see carmen, she will take care of you!

Just Me

Dear Future Clients:

It is my pleasure to convey my experience with the expertise and outstanding representation of C. Soto Law Firm!! I was represented in a relocation case involving a minor child. All prejudices and stigmas associated were stacked against me since I am of the male minority species going against a mother. Also my history and financial means that as a society, we judge when characterizing the norms of people were not stacked in my favor not even remotely except.love. Despite some of the obstacles I mention, my initial meeting with Ms Martinez went well! She was very straight forward and listen with helpfulness. Then walked in ...unknowing our future attorney...Ms Allison Bishow. Her spirit and expertise with the team work was laid before my eyes. Ms Bishow and Ms Martinez closed the deal for me in choice!!! I felt like I was on the. A- side!! Ms Bishow not only well versed but seasoned in the Florida laws that govern relocation cases. She also..takes corrected actions to keep..you on task and involves you in course of action. The trauma in these cases can be very insidious. She guided us thru jungle of emotional trauma. She tailored her knowledge and passion to our situation thru her preparation of our case. Because of her attentiveness, I felt like a ....million dollar client!! Never did i feel I was left...in left field. Also, Ms Gomez was so professional and polite conveying messages in regards to updates in my case. The team never blew smoke. They were straight forward with the how and why in communications. Other words..Ms Allison and team...talked my ..language. Identification is very important!!

The opposition felt they had a very strong case and often displayed those tactics. The oppositions' stand was ..No negotiations...unconditional surrender! The fears whether imagine or real can be unbearable. Ms Bishow was always poised, considerate and unwavering in meeting my goals. My attorney was able to uncover the underlying motives and bring out the exact nature of the truth. That being said, the relevant facts that are applicable in the laws of Florida were conveyed by Ms Bishow...elegantly!!! Despite the detours and dark twists during the course of the case and especially trial, she adjusted cause she knows what she is doing!! Never compromising or wavering from integrity or truth.

This story has a happy ending but if it was adverse. I know in my heart.of heart, the law firm was my best shot. Thank God for a decent attorney especially this firm. You know for most its all about the money. If you have doubts about your 1st choice in attorney or are looking for an attorney that goes far above the call of duty. I strongly recommend this Firm!! Very good could be the enemy of the best.

Every negative review on here is facts! I had the same issue. I paid her over $3000 and even after I told her not to start my case, oh and I have it in email with HER confirming it, and still all she wants is money! They NEVER started my case. I NEVER gave them any documents. I NEVER got my money back! I basically prepaid her and yet she wanted more money even after a signed contract! Stay away from this office! It’s true.... all she cares about is the money! Someone needs to call the bars on her! Ethics is out the window!

Incompetence galore, lack of response and poor communication. You're better off going it alone.. Negative star rating should be considered.

I would not recommend this firm to anyone. I was only able to see Carmen ONCE, I was never told she was not gonna be the one representing me until they got my retainer money.....she assigned another attorney for my case who in my opinion didn't do a good job....

The firm is staffed with knowledgeable and genuinely caring folks. Throughout the entire process, I received communication at every step of the way and I am particularly grateful to Allison Bishow. Associate attorney Bishow demonstrated an extremely high level of professionalism and ethics quality that simply aren't common nowadays. There were instances in which I thought the case was related to her as I witnessed the scale in which she organized the process. Needless to say, our case was a success and I will be forever grateful.

I cannot begin to describe what an amazing attorney Carmen Soto is…so I’ll just tell you what she has done for me and my family.

I live 900 miles away from Ft. Lauderdale and was served court papers from there in 2011 regarding a domestic order, geography was not in my favor. I was at a loss as I had no family, contacts or associates in Florida who could recommend an attorney for me or even where to begin to find one. My company had a free legal reference service and provided me with Carmen’s number along with a few others. Carmen was my first phone call…and my last. After speaking with her over the phone for almost an hour, I was certain she was the one I could rely on to help me with this. What neither one of us knew at the time was this was about to turn into an exhausting 6-year legal battle …all while I sat 900 miles away.

Putting my trust into someone to represent me does not come easily and especially in legal matters such as this. I could not afford to fly or drive to Florida regularly to meet with her or submit documentation or to do anything a normal client would do with their attorney, but Carmen and her staff always took care things and kept me informed. Carmen studied the case and case laws relating to this matter and time and time again represented me as if I was her only client only requiring me to appear in Florida when it was absolutely necessary (about 4 times over the course of 6 years). Carmen’s determination, understanding of the law and tireless efforts through motion after motion resulted in rulings in our favor every time. When those rulings were appealed, Carmen didn’t hesitate to meet them head on and her dogged perseverance resulted in those appeals being dismissed again and again.

After 6 years of this ongoing legal battle, the last of the appeals was dismissed and the case has for now, come to a close. I don’t know what I would have done without Carmen’s representation through this case. Being so far away and fighting a case in South Florida seemed overwhelming, but Carmen proved to me over and over that she was there for me and never ceased to deliver. I can’t imagine hiring a better attorney than Carmen…she is fair, informative, understanding, kind and above all a consummate professional who made me feel like I was her only client.
Thank you Carmen, I can’t tell you that enough.

I recently used the office of Carmen Soto for a civil matter. She was very knowledgable and took her time with me. Her staff was also very helpful. They guided me all the way from beginning to end through a tough matter. Thank you to Carmen and her staff. Five stars. Would definitely hire again.

Ms Soto and her team were always very helpful on my file child custody case. She was always very accessible via phone or email. I always had a million questions and she never made me feel like I was too much or bothersome. She was very understanding and helped make a difficult process bearable.

Let's start off by saying that this is your fair warning, Do not use this firm as my experience was complete injustice. I shopped around and found several other firms for much less but was lead to believe that this was the firm to use at nearly double everyone else's cost....I was given the run around on what was going to be done on my behalf several times. I chose this woman because of the reviews she received but obviously they were not correct and far off in my case as you can tell. After having the free consultation and believing all these ways she would help me in getting a divorce which she ADVISED me I ended up in a worse situation than I had started. Instead of using the money I gave her as a retainer I could of used it to pay my rent and to take care of my children ect.... I Ended up having to give my children back to their father, because I had no money left to care for them after two months of her PROMISING EMERGENCY FUNDS soon, that absolutely never happened, she gauranteed my husband would get served papers which I thought was why I paid her the 4200 dollars along with emergency funds. I trusted in her word, After 2 months of her service rendered He was never even served with papers and I was being evicted from my home, I trusted her and gave her all the money I had, my whole income tax check. $4,200 retainer only to receive $1100 returned to me after I withdrew from her service because nothing was done! She basically left me to dry. I felt I was treated Unfair and taken advantage of at a difficult time. Also she charged me a half hour of my money for a email which I only stated that "I have no money please Help"
I could keep going on and on but It is what it is and let's just say I learn my lesson 35 years old and I am still with my husband by the way. Not enough money to even get a divorce. And I'm glad actually in one way because me and my husband are happy again but besides that she Was no help to me at all and there are too many attorneys in that town to choose from. Good luck to anybody who uses her. I have no clue why her reviews were so high!!!!

From our very first meeting, Carmen and her team showed a great deal of honesty, professionalism, and a real sense of care for my case. Her expertise and dedication were an important factor in achieving the results I wanted. I would recommend her to anyone who needs to be represented by a true professional.

Carmen Soto is an amazing woman, met her 3 weeks ago regarding my civil case. She offered me a free 30 mins consultation. She had that motherly touch to her consultation. She is well informed, told me I didn't need a lawyer and I would be fine. She wasn't all about making money but willing to help anyone who was at a fix and didn't know what to do. I got free legal advise and everything went well. I would highly recommend this law firm over and over again. Once again, Carmen....Thank You.

Seeking these types of legal services accompanies a great deal of stress. After several years of a bad experience with an attorney, I selected Carmen Soto to carry me through the finish line of a deeply emotional and stressful time in my life. I knew right away I made the right choice with my selection. I felt as if I had not only a professional by my side, but also a friend, who offered support and guidance. Carmen is responsive, efficient and knowledgeable. You do not feel as if you are lost in a sea of clients, with a case number for your identity. I recommend Carmen and her staff to assist you with your legal needs in any area of her expertise.

I highly recommend Carmen Soto and her team! I had to file for bankruptcy and I was so scared and ashamed. I searched for days looking for an attorney and I came across Carmen Soto's page.. I read her reviews and saw all the great reviews, not one did I read that didn't meet the client’s needs.... I then decided to meet with her in May 2016.. After the first meeting with Mrs. Soto I felt so relieved.. she explained the process and what my options were. Answered all my questions without hurrying me, she was so knowledgeable. You can tell she is there for her clients. She gave me a reasonable price for her services, honestly I was so nervous that’s the last thing i was thinking of.. I left a deposit and then i was able in full at the end of November.. I had paperwork to turn in to get the process going. I met with one of her specialist Fabi (great person), I brought her all my stuff and she also helped answer all the other questions I needed. She was very thorough with me to make sure we don't miss anything to file. I was so nervous and scared.. but they made this whole nightmare easy.. Even going to the creditors meeting
I was drying and Mrs. Soto made me feel at ease.. She had compassion and I was happy she was there representing me. Her whole team from Sarah that answers the phone, to Fabi to Mrs. Soto are all amazing! If you are looking for a firm to represent you and make you feel like family then she is the one to hire. I am an avid reviewer and am so thankful for the reviews that led me to find this firm.. You will not be disappointed, I know I am not! Thank you again for your great work and hope that you can help hundreds more...

It is my pleasure to write this review to express my gratitude with the Law Office of Carmen G. Soto. I would like to express my deepest and sincere gratitude to Attorney Allison Bishow who accompanied me to court on several occasions and did a wonderful job with my case. Allison was extremely kind, amazingly intelligent and helpful and thanks to her dedication and constant follow up, the entire process became a very smooth transition. Thanks also go to Sarah, Daniela and Attorney Soto for having been super patient with me and accommodating. If you are looking for a Law Firm that will get the job done and that strives for excellence then I highly recommend that you retain the services of the Law Office of Carmen G. Soto. I look forward to them assisting with my sister's divorce case. Thank you once again and have a wonderful week.
