I am so glad I was referred to Anton Castro Law. After a very bad experience with a rude "well-know, name on every bus stop" attorney, speaking with John Castro was a breath of fresh air! He spoke to me in a very professional manner and did not belittle me or pressure me into anything. His office staff was also very pleasant and informative every time we communicated. I am happy to say, he settled my case for much more than expected, in a timely manner, and I would gladly refer him to any family member or friend.

No one imagines that the need for a competent family law attorney should ever arise, but when it does, Christina Anton is hands-down the legal representative anyone should have on their side. Her ability to instill confidence in her clients while throuroghly explaining the process is second to none. Her expertise and experience in high conflict cases has raised the bar as far choosing the most qualified legal counsel. From the office location, staff and ease of communication to the immediate connection and relationship formed with Christina, we would proudly refer this firm to anyone in need no matter how big or small the case.

Christina was there for me through my entire divorce. She was a tremendous asset to have on my side and always answered the phone even on the weekends or when she was on vacation. Christina always had my best interests in mind and she is a pit bull when it comes to defending her clients. Her knowledge and passion for practicing law is evident every step of the way. Katrina and Tina were also always there to help and made sure my questions were answered quickly!
I needed to find a good lawyer to help me to fight against a problematic neighbor that has lied to the Court, obtaining a legal injunction against me. John was extremely professional and competent and, right before the judge hearing, he managed to discuss with this neighbor the case and the repercussions of her inconsequent actions. After John’s intervention, the case became much simpler and basically resumed into the preparation of a legal letter. Before meeting John, I had contacted other lawyers that wanted to charge twice as much as John, also suggesting much more complicated legal strategies. Therefore I strongly recommend John’s legal services for anybody that desires to solve a legal residential (or similar) dispute with the help of an energetic and intelligent lawyer, extremely competent and that offers very reasonable rates. Sincerely, L. Fernandes

In great debt for what Katrina and her team have done for my son and me, got my parental rights and time sharing paper work done at a reasonable time, if they worked with me and I was a bit grouchy for everything that was happening and still understood my feelings and kept their cool, they’ll definitely work with anyone, can’t thank enough (:

I had a highly contentious post-divorce custody battle come up recently. I tried to save money and hired another firm but that idea cost me more in the long run. Once Christina took over the case, she and her capable crew hammered away and things began to change immediately. I began the case not being able to even talk to my daughter. The matter ended with me gaining full custody. Today I'm sitting next to my happy teenage daughter in a safe and healthy environment. Christina didn't just win my case, she might very well have saved my daughter's life. I am forever grateful for Christina, Katrina, Kerstin, & Tina.

Anton Castro has handled my Paternity (child custody) case in Polk County for the past two years.

I was very pleased with the outcome and the professionalism of the firm throughout the process. Many thanks - I highly recommend Anton Castro!!

Christina, Enrico, and the entire Anton-Castro Law staff are nothing short of excellent. They took over my child custody/support case after two very unsuccessful years with another attorney and immediately went to work expediting the process
Enrico was simply amazing. His supporting, consistent, honest, and most importantly - productive - approach was exactly what I needed to get through the process. He was extremely knowledgeable in family law and was able to answer all my questions and prepare me for different scenarios that may arise. He kept me informed of everything that was going on through the whole process. During mediation, he kept me relaxed and made it as pleasant as it could be.
I was very satisfied with the results of my case. I highly recommend Enrico and the entire Anton-Castro Law staff, for any person wanting the best possible outcome for their case!

Christina, Enrico, and the Anton Castro Law staff were nothing less than amazing! They took my childrens case over after I worked with another lawyer on it for nearly two years. They had to start it over from scratch building my support and everything was completed in just over 3 months, exceeding all expectations.
The Anton Castro staff made themselves available at all times, even over the Christmas holidays and took time to build a relationship and understanding with me, listen to me, and game plan so we all were on the same sheet of music and were constantly aware of different potential outcomes.
Enrico was a amazing professional lawyer, the best I've ever seen- the true standard of what every lawyer should emulate, some lawyers talk at you but he talked with you and was a superb listener. Enrico was flawless at diffusing emotions and managing the right mindset which guided our discussions. If I could choose him as my personal lawyer and coach I'd so- did I mention they did everything for me because I live out of state. I also want to note Enrico sent consistent and constant emails every step of the way...there wasn't a 48 hour period in which I didn't hear from him. Since I had horrible experiences with previous attorneys I was skeptical that my case would be worked from him as to him giving me the best representation.
There was never a time in which I questioned if I had made the right choice with hiring the Anton Castro Law team! I really appreciated the check in texts to check up on me, this showed me they cared about my state of mind due to such a sensitive situation.
On top of such a great customer experience and being reasonably priced they refunded me the expenses that we did not use. I want to note this because most firms end up sending you a final bill verse a refund check because you never know how much of your money was used that was retained.
I'm so grateful to the Anton Castro Team; they helped me in such a time of need with the best service and representation one could ask for. Stellar work from this team and rating them only a 5 out of 5 doesn't reflect to how good they actually are!
Thank you Christina and Enrico for your protection, affordability, and phenomenal service!

Stellar work! I had hired an Attorney from the Tampa/Oldsmar area to handle my Family-Law based case and unfortunately, that Attorney was not committed or able to effectively move the needle in my case in any fashion. As a result, I was referred to Christina Anton Garcia by a friend of mine. Christina worked dilgently towards my goals. Christina and her Associates stuck with my complicated, sensitive and never ending "odd" scenario base case; while successfully closing my case and accomplishing all of my goals! This Law Firm is ethical, expierienced and dedicated to your case from start to finish! Huge Kudos to The Law Firm, Anton Castro Law.

Anton Garcia Law did an amazing job representing me during a very difficult and messy divorce.
Brad McDonald is who represented me and I couldn’t of had a better lawyer. Brad always took my calls on his cell phone even during non business hours, he always had my best interests in mind, and always tried to be price conscientious of my money.
Even after I thought I was done with them and my divorce was final, a year later I’m being dragged back to court by my ex. I picked up the phone and it was like we had still been doing business together. They knew all about me and my case and we won the next court date.
I am glad to say that my Lawyer Brad has become a friend, glad to have meet him, glad I was represented by Anton Garcia.
Megan was absolutely delightful and even though she was the one calling me for more money, I still loved dealing with her. . She would call for payment, ask me how my day is going, and could she do anything for me.
I was referred over to them by a friend that didn’t even use their services but heard nothing but great things about them. I have referred them twice now and will continue to referring them.
I am not a review type of person but I need to give credit where credit is due. Anton Garcia you did an amazing job. Thank you.

During the darkest of times, someone of high regard referred me to Christina. If not, divorce may have been the death of me. Christina assessed my specific scenario and we moved quickly on a plan of action. After the initial consultation, Kristina worked tirelessly to ensure everything was done properly, in accordance with the plan. I received timely procedural updates and both attorneys availed themselves for questions and/or concerns. At a crucial time, Christina, Katrina and I met and discussed the case for more than two hours. The result of this conference was equanimity. With worry abated, I moved on their sound advice. My divorce was soon final, with a most desirable outcome. I am not proud to be a divorce’, but I am thankful to have had Christina and Katrina on my side. They preserved my future.

The involvement we have had with Anton Castro Law spans almost an entire year, during which the entire staff from assistants to the attorneys have been on point and exact. They have also been very informative and receptive to questions, which we had a lot of. This is not my first dealing with attorneys, but it is the first time I have dealt with individuals I felt deserved recognition for the work they have performed.
If anyone is looking for representation in the Tampa area, I highly recommend contacting attorneys Katrina Lopez or Christina Anton.

Unfortunately almost a year ago I was surprised with a request for a divorce from my husband. I had no idea how the whole divorce process worked. At my initial meeting, I felt like things were very overwhelming, but Brad MacDonald with Anton Garcia Law, was absolutely the best. He was very knowledgeable, honest, and upfront with how things would go and the costs associated. Being able to see the big picture helped to guide my decisions and focus on the future and not the ugliness of what was happening in the moment. He was in constant communication with me about my case and if I ever had a question responded in a timely manner. He knew my kids were my priority and tailored my case around that. I never felt like I was just a client, I feel he took a personal interest in my case and even though he may have had to tell me things I didn’t want to hear or particularly like, he was always honest with me. He never sugarcoated anything and put up with my endless questions with grace and patience. I never felt like I was a pain! I have heard that the divorce process can take a very long time, Brad knew that time of was the essence for me and at one point when I was very concerned about my children, Brad pushed for a mediation to address some pressing issues. When the opposing counsel would not return an email or phone call, Brad was tenacious and did everything in his power to get things moving. Even though I did not have many direct dealings with Christina, the few times I did, she was professional and put my mind at ease. Tina in the office also was quick with answers to my questions and always pleasant to correspond with. I was put even more at ease when the two different mediators I had spoke so highly about the Law firm of Anton Garcia. One even referred to them as a “class act “. All this to say, that 10 months after the process started it has finished and my children are happy and settled and I am very pleased with the outcome! I would highly recommend this law firm for your family law needs.

Christina Garcia was excellent. I give my strongest endorsement to her work. You will not make a mistake going with her as your divorce lawyer.
Let me start with the fact she is very strong in court, should you have a case that ends up there. She develops a plan that you approve, and is quick on her feet to adjust the plan as needed once the trial starts. I never doubted the outcome of the case for a minute. Christina will tell you honestly where you stand, which is refreshing.
She was always available to me and makes you feel that you were her only client. I routinely received emails from her at 3am. Her work hours are 24/7.
Finally, Enrico Zanella Esq. and Meghan the office manager are true professionals that are very personable to work with and round out this great team. Enrico is a very good lawyer who always had good ideas and produced solid work. Meghan keeps the ship running smooth and never is flustered no matter what the problem may be.
My experience has been positive every step of the way with Anton Castro. I highly recommend them if you need a divorce lawyer.

My initial attorney I hired was not representing my interests at all. I was being bombarded by requests from my husband’s attorney. I asked my friend who has been divorced 4 times, who the most competent, professional & aggressive attorney was because I needed to be able to see out of my proverbial black eye in order to go to work to pay my husband the alimony he was complaining he wasn't getting. I met with Christina and the threats from my husbands attorney stopped with in a week. Christina who by the way has the best response time to all of my dumb annoying questions ( she even knew the temperature to bake a cake). Fast forward....now my business is in jeopardy of being destroyed and all along the “Captain” ( which his the nice name for the X) still wants his monthly alimony and child support. Christina and Kerstin never let up. Christina out lawyered a judge who literally told her basically " You’re right and I don't care" ( have to love Pasco County), and was frantically yelling terms that I have NO idea as to their meaning. Her passion was obvious! I think her strategy worked and after that day “Captain” decided he wanted to settle. She set up a mediation for a week later. She brought me coffee, was punctual, set up her battle ground all around her and we waited....and waited...and waited....because apparently “Captain” wouldn't stop talking long enough to realize mediation wasn't a vent fest but a place where three attorneys try save you money by not going to trial. Mediation focused only on financial issues and Christina was all about numbers. Spouting things that made a lot of sense and exiting with a mic drop. 11 hours later, yes 11 hours later we settled the money part of my divorce. I walked away with my intact company, all my debt paid off including my vehicles, and a signed waiver for all of the violations to the judges order I apparently never read. I got what was most important and Christina and Kerstin were all I could have asked for. Patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. They worked late to get my settlement typed up and knew the best way to get it done was to make “Captain” think it was all his idea

John Castro was the attorney assigned to my case and from the onset provided clear and concise communication, recommendations and direction. It's stressful placing the outcome of your future in the hands of someone you don't know or have never met but John instilled a sense of confidence from his knowledge and professionalism.
From our first conversation I stated my goals and John outlined a clear path that would present the best opportunity to obtain that resolution. I followed that direction and was able to achieve the resolution that I hoped for. Throughout the process he was consistent and honest with his advice and it proved accurate. It was obvious that John is known and well-respected among his professional colleagues and peers.

John was my lawyer for a first time DUI charge. The state did not make a satisfactory plea offer so we took the case to trial. All of this was new to me and John answered every question I had along the way. He also guided me through the process so there were no surprises. At trial he defended me like a true advocate should. He was well prepared and aggressive. I was found not guilty and I'm thankful beyond words.

I waited 6 months to write this review to let my nerves settle down after my divorce. I have spoken to other people who have been through divorce and how their cases were handled. I have reflected on how my case was handled. I knew from day 1, I was going to hire Christina, when she asked me how aggressive do I need to be? The office and staff were amazing. Day to day I dealt with Angie who was very prompt with responses. Christina, when I needed more senior advice responded usually within a few minutes. What really sets them apart is the advice/counseling is/was straight to the point. Christina did not sugar coat anything and I appreciated that. She basically was able to tell me how things were, and what to expect. We prepared for the worst, fortunately it did not come to that. Knowing what some of my friends went through, and what little input they really got from their attorneys is what sets this practice apart. Even though I was mostly dealing with Angie, Christina always knew the details on my case. Even when I spoke with her 6 months later, she still recalled most of the details. What that proves to me is that she really cares. If you are looking for a no nonsense practice that truly cares about their clients, then I would wholeheartedly recommend Christina and her amazing staff.

When I was struck with a legal issue, I immediately knew to call Anton Castro Law. They came highly recommended for great reason. John Castro was completely professional and put me at easy. His expertise showed in the court room and ultimately had my case dismissed. 100% would I refer them to anyone in need of a top notch legal team. Thank you John and the rest of the Anton Castro Law team!!!!

I have had the pleasure of working with John Castro on more than one occasion. He is responsive, honest and has managed to resolve any issues very quickly. John is great about keeping you informed on processes and what to expect through the duration of your case. I would recommend John to anyone in need of legal advice and will continue to look to him in the future.

Amazing experience with Anton Castro Law! I got into a horrible accident back in March and I am so happy that I found this law firm! John was super quick about making sure that he helped me throughout this whole situation and explained to me everything that I needed to do and everything that was going to happen. I didn't speak to an assistant or had to wait days for him to respond to my questions - I always spoke with JOHN PERSONALLY on the PHONE. He kept me informed and up to date every step of the way. Took my case to court and got my case DISMISSED! He gave my so much peace of mind during a very difficult time for me. Overall wonderful experience and highly recommend.

Fraught with confusion, injury and a lack of knowledge and understanding of what options I had, Attorney John Castro answered my phone call on Christmas Day and shined as a beacon of hope- my Star of Bethlehem. I put my trust and faith in him and he delivered. Every question I asked, no matter how trivial or simple they seemed to him, were answered as if I was the most important client he has ever had. I followed his instructions to a tee and 6 months later I could not be happier with the results. Mr. Castro showed his true professionalism in his appearance and attitude whether it was in a one on one consultation or in front of a judge. The office mascot, "Junior," was even a source of comfort as it was if he could sense my pain and laid by my side to offer me much needed stability. I can not thank this firm enough and I am proud to call John Castro my lawyer.

Amazing law firm!! I have relied on John Castro's legal expertise for many years and he has always been nothing less than exceptional in both his professionalism, follow through and legal knowledge. I have referred several people to him over the years and will continue to do so. He's easy to work with and a straight shooter, which I think is especially important in an attorney. I would highly recommend contacting him for a consultation if you're in need of legal counsel and you'll see for yourself.

Attorney Castro is a trusted and zealous advocate for all of his clients. He takes the time to personally ensure your issues and concerns are addressed. He stands by his clients from inception to disposition of each case. I trust his advice and ability, and regularly refer clients to him for representation. I would certainly recommend him to anyone in need.

I reached out to John Castro regarding a traffic case. I was very confused and unsure of what steps to take and Mr. Castro provided excellent counsel and reassured me we were taking the correct steps. He gave me great peace of mind and even better, had the case dismissed in court! I can't say enough great things about Anton Castro Law and especially John Castro, he is a consummate professional and excellent attorney. So happy I reached out to him for assistance, could not be more pleased with the results!

How does one describe help that comes at just the right time? What words are able to encapsulate the fortitude and humanity that Mrs. Anton and Mr. Wilson embody? They are unfailingly helpful, professional, caring, and respectful. All during some of the hardest and darkest days my family has been through. Mrs. Anton has been a light house and a life raft. I did not volunteer for the issues that incurred the need for her services, but having to face them with her by my side made difficult days so much more bearable. I am unwaveringly grateful to have her as my attorney. As professionals and human beings we should all strive to be as proficient, humane, strong, and kind as Mrs. Anton and Mr. Wilson.

I was in a legal situation, unsure of what to do next and needed help. I put my faith in Attorney John Castro to assist with my situation. He and the staff provided excellent customer service, after speaking with them I no longer had any concerns. They handled my matters quickly and now they are a thing of the past. There are many attorneys in the Tampa Bay area, STOP LOOKING, I recommend anyone in need of legal assistance hire this firm!

I contacted this law office to obtain advice and I was in the process of making a list of potential attorneys to handle my case. When I spoke with the receptionist who answered the phone she asked me to give her a brief description of my predicament and she would see which attorney would be available to speak with me - I was placed on a very brief hold. When she came back on the line she said the retainer fee for an attorney at this firm is $3,500-4,000 and the attorney wouldn't speak with me or give me any advice or consultation without paying the retainer fee up front. NEVER SPOKE WITH AN ATTORNEY AT THIS FIRM! I spoke with numerous other attorneys who when I explained my experience with this firm were in complete shock and said it was their civil duty to provide a free consultation to a potential client before demanding a retainer fee! This entire firm is a joke! I can't imagine anyone dumb enough to pay a retainer fee of several thousand dollars to an attorney just to speak with him/her when they could and probably are completely incompetent! If they can't take a few moments out of their day to try and retain a potential client then God help them!

Christina Anton-Garcia is a consummate professional with extraordinary knowledge, compassion and expertise who zealously advocates for her clients best interests. I am extremely grateful to Christina (and her well run team of seasoned professionals) for her guidance, support, and generosity in helping me with my complex litigation on multiple fronts. From the very beginning Christina was generous with her time, gave me sound advice as well as strategies, and was always immediately responsive. Throughout the proceedings she kept me apprised of the situation, to include the minutiae, and consistently let me know what to expect throughout the entire year long endeavor. In light of of her expertise, commitment, responsiveness and command of knowledge, I give Christina and her team the highest recommendation possible.

I have known John Castro for many years and he is the first person I go to with any legal questions or concerns. He has helped guide me through some very difficult legal issues that I have encountered over the years and he has never steered me wrong. I am lucky to have John as a friend as much as you would be lucky to have him on your side for your legal concerns. You will not find more confident and capable attorneys in Tampa that will truly give you the best legal services than that of Anton Castro Law!

I have known John for years as he has been a customer of the business I run, and recently one of my employees found herself in a situation that needed legal attention. I referred her to Anton Castro Law to help her out. She was exhilarated with her results and the care and concern that the attorneys gave her. She couldn't have been happier with the results. Thank you for being there for Tampa.

I had a dissatisfying experience working with this law firm. I retained the firm / attorney, Christina Garcia based on the positive reviews online and reputation in the legal community, however surprisingly, my expectations exceeded what they were actually capable of accomplishing. Facing a lawsuit can be an emotional and stressful event in someone’s life. I have never found myself in this type of situation and expected guidance through this unfortunate process. I would have expected legal expertise, support, and assurance that regardless of the outcome, my best interest would be a priority. However, the attorney seem to care more about receiving payment AND additional retainer, instead of providing the legal representation they were retained to provide. I retained this attorney due to a paternity/child support lawsuit filed against me. During consultation, I was given the assurance this case would be handled personally by the partner. In fact the partner referenced she had won several cases against OC. After collecting the first $4500 retainer, it seem to change drastically. I was assigned to an inexperience associate and my retainer was consumed by forwarded emails and back and forth communication, that was being sent by the petitioner's attorney. The OC was filing motions and bullying her way through the process while we were trying to negotiate a settlement, but my attorney seems to have no concerns. Additionally, they missed a mediation hearing, never filed requested documents, provided legal advice or asserted Florida stature or law that I would have to research myself and brought to their attention. I had to deal with the petitioner directly and try to negotiate terms. Case ended in mediation, where after 4.5 hours nothing was accomplished. The associate that accompany me was not prepared and had limited knowledge when I asked for advise. I contacted the partner to express my disappointment. She offered a discounted rate and assured me she would personally take over the case. After agreeing to this, I would have expected she would represent me (after all, it was her I retained) and go after OC aggressively, given the nature of the situation. Instead, a few days later, I received an email demanding I pay her discounted rate (due to her associate's mishandling) and a new retainer. During this, I was traveling for work and had requested we speak later that week. She became hostile and short in her emails. Due to her approach and lack of compassion, I've since terminated my relationship with this law firm and attorney ($6800..later) and would recommend you proceed with caution when retaining this firm or attorney. This attorney exhibited no compassion or empathy. Retrospectively, I believe she was not equipped to handle OC and wanted me to fire her as my attorney. Very unfortunate and disappointing experience. This should have never gone this far, waste of money.

I just wanted to take a moment to tell everyone my experience with John Castro. He deserves a lot of recognition. Castro helped me always on short notice and was always eager to help. He gave me advice on my case that was honest and very reliable. Castro is an incredible attorney and I will forever be referring people to go see him. Thank you for everything!

Not having lived in Florida for over five years and needing representation on an old case, I was in a bit of a pickle(I'm putting that extremely mildly). I had made a few calls to other firms in the Tampa Bay area and honestly built a solid rapport almost immediately with all involved from the moment my call was answered. To simply say that they did their job would be a disservice to their efforts on my behalf. John Casto, as well as the staff far exceeded my expectations. For that, I am grateful.

I live out of state and needed someone to represent me, and a friend from law school referred me to John through one of his colleagues. I am so grateful for John and his help. He explained the charges, the process, and his plan for helping me--all in a way that reassured me that there would be a positive outcome. He answered all my questions and responded promptly whenever I contacted him. His staff was very nice and helpful as well. Ultimately, he got my charges dropped and did exactly what he said he would do. I would recommend him to anyone. I cannot thank him enough for his assistance.

I have used John for two cases and was always extremely satisfied with the outcome of the court cases. As I found him out of the blue, I was not sure how it would work out. However, he does exactly what he says will be done and he was precise in gathering the entire case together and making sure my evidence was clear. He made things easy and swiftly ended the trials, all in my favor. Without John's representation, I would have been a lot more stressed and at a huge inconvenience. John Castro has been an excellent help to me and is my go-to lawyer. I highly recommend him.

First of all I want to thank all of you for your assistance and support throughout my case. I am very thankful that I made the decision to change firms and that I selected Anton Castro Law to represent me. I feel very confident that, under the circumstances, the agreement that we settled upon was far superior to what my former law firm was capable of negotiating. From day one of the initial consultation and throughout the process, I felt confident in knowing that I was very well represented by Christina and Anton Castro Law.
Again, I sincerely appreciate all of the hard work, strong negotiation skills, and your consistent support. My family and I thank you for all of your efforts toward helping us to move forward through a very difficult time.

I would recommend John Castro to anyone! I called around to so many law offices when my husband violated his CC probation and he was literally the ONLY ONE who was there and available to talk to me immediately. We spent about 30 mins on the phone and not once did he seem like he was rushing me off the phone as many other attorneys who finally called me back hours later did. I even called back a couple times and once he answered the phone himself, not his assistant. This was very important to me and he made me feel like this case was his first priority and everything was so fast. I needed him ASAP and he was there! The very next morning we met and the day after that we were in court!!!!! he not only kept my husband from going to prison but he actually got him off his CC probation completely and was able to role over into regular probation. BEST LAWYER WE HAVE EVER BEEN BLESSED TO MEET!!! I wish we would have found him to begin with!!!!
IF YOU NEED A LAWYER CALL THESE PEOPLE! They do what they say they are going to do and are so responsive! And he will not sugar coat anything, he will tell you his honest opinion of the situation, which was very much appreciated as well!!
CANNOT THANK THESE PEOPLE ENOUGH!!!!!!!
The assistant at the front, (i cannot for the life of me remember her name) but she was very helpful as well.
If i ever need any legal help again, i can guarantee i will be calling them!

I had John represent me in two cases for a violation of probation and i will say that what ever John say John does and will take place within the courtroom. He is a very professional lawyer that caters to the care and concerns of his clients. He wants what is best for his clients and is determined to get the best results for his clients. Not only is John professional his staff as well are friendly and professional and is always there to help. I would recommend John Castro and the Anton Castro Law Group to anyone looking for a Civil or Criminal case. Whether you are looking to get your questions answered or looking to hire attorneys that will get the job done this is the place to go. If anyone asks me who to call its Anton and Castro.

Enrico was simply amazing. His supporting, consistent, honest, and most importantly - productive - approach was exactly what I needed to get through the process. He was extremely knowledgeable in family law and was able to answer all my questions and prepare me for different scenarios that may arise. He kept me informed of everything that was going on through the whole process. During mediation, he kept me relaxed and made it as pleasant as it could be.
I was very satisfied with the results of my case. I highly recommend Enrico and the entire Anton-Castro Law staff, for any person wanting the best possible outcome for their case!
The Anton Castro staff made themselves available at all times, even over the Christmas holidays and took time to build a relationship and understanding with me, listen to me, and game plan so we all were on the same sheet of music and were constantly aware of different potential outcomes.
Enrico was a amazing professional lawyer, the best I've ever seen- the true standard of what every lawyer should emulate, some lawyers talk at you but he talked with you and was a superb listener. Enrico was flawless at diffusing emotions and managing the right mindset which guided our discussions. If I could choose him as my personal lawyer and coach I'd so- did I mention they did everything for me because I live out of state. I also want to note Enrico sent consistent and constant emails every step of the way...there wasn't a 48 hour period in which I didn't hear from him. Since I had horrible experiences with previous attorneys I was skeptical that my case would be worked from him as to him giving me the best representation.
There was never a time in which I questioned if I had made the right choice with hiring the Anton Castro Law team! I really appreciated the check in texts to check up on me, this showed me they cared about my state of mind due to such a sensitive situation.
On top of such a great customer experience and being reasonably priced they refunded me the expenses that we did not use. I want to note this because most firms end up sending you a final bill verse a refund check because you never know how much of your money was used that was retained.
I'm so grateful to the Anton Castro Team; they helped me in such a time of need with the best service and representation one could ask for. Stellar work from this team and rating them only a 5 out of 5 doesn't reflect to how good they actually are!
Thank you Christina and Enrico for your protection, affordability, and phenomenal service!
Brad McDonald is who represented me and I couldn’t of had a better lawyer. Brad always took my calls on his cell phone even during non business hours, he always had my best interests in mind, and always tried to be price conscientious of my money.
Even after I thought I was done with them and my divorce was final, a year later I’m being dragged back to court by my ex. I picked up the phone and it was like we had still been doing business together. They knew all about me and my case and we won the next court date.
I am glad to say that my Lawyer Brad has become a friend, glad to have meet him, glad I was represented by Anton Garcia.
Megan was absolutely delightful and even though she was the one calling me for more money, I still loved dealing with her. . She would call for payment, ask me how my day is going, and could she do anything for me.
I was referred over to them by a friend that didn’t even use their services but heard nothing but great things about them. I have referred them twice now and will continue to referring them.
I am not a review type of person but I need to give credit where credit is due. Anton Garcia you did an amazing job. Thank you.
The involvement we have had with Anton Castro Law spans almost an entire year, during which the entire staff from assistants to the attorneys have been on point and exact. They have also been very informative and receptive to questions, which we had a lot of. This is not my first dealing with attorneys, but it is the first time I have dealt with individuals I felt deserved recognition for the work they have performed.
If anyone is looking for representation in the Tampa area, I highly recommend contacting attorneys Katrina Lopez or Christina Anton.
I was put even more at ease when the two different mediators I had spoke so highly about the Law firm of Anton Garcia. One even referred to them as a “class act “. All this to say, that 10 months after the process started it has finished and my children are happy and settled and I am very pleased with the outcome! I would highly recommend this law firm for your family law needs.
Let me start with the fact she is very strong in court, should you have a case that ends up there. She develops a plan that you approve, and is quick on her feet to adjust the plan as needed once the trial starts. I never doubted the outcome of the case for a minute. Christina will tell you honestly where you stand, which is refreshing.
She was always available to me and makes you feel that you were her only client. I routinely received emails from her at 3am. Her work hours are 24/7.
Finally, Enrico Zanella Esq. and Meghan the office manager are true professionals that are very personable to work with and round out this great team. Enrico is a very good lawyer who always had good ideas and produced solid work. Meghan keeps the ship running smooth and never is flustered no matter what the problem may be.
My experience has been positive every step of the way with Anton Castro. I highly recommend them if you need a divorce lawyer.
From our first conversation I stated my goals and John outlined a clear path that would present the best opportunity to obtain that resolution. I followed that direction and was able to achieve the resolution that I hoped for. Throughout the process he was consistent and honest with his advice and it proved accurate. It was obvious that John is known and well-respected among his professional colleagues and peers.
The entire staff at this firm is professional, courteous and responsive. I would highly recommend Anton Castro Law to anyone who has experienced substance-related traffic violations.
The entire staff at this firm is very professional and courteous, extremely personable. It was my experience that they all work together as a team and genuinely care about their clients health and overall well-being.
I would highly recommend Anton Castro Law Firm to anyone who has experienced personal injuries due to an accident- be it auto or any other type.
Special thanks to my Attorney, John Castro. He's the absolute BEST!!!!!! 5 Stars!
Thank you Christina, Kerstin and Team!!!
Christina Anton-Garcia and Matthew Wilson made sure no stone was left unturned in my quest to protect my children.
