"She took a subject that can be very challenging and confusing if not downright difficult to deal with, and made it sensible and understandable. There are so many directions to go and she helped all the way. Definitely the smartest thing we have done and Sylvia [sic] made it the best thing we have done."
Pam G.

“Silvia is easy to talk to. She actively listens and offers options to accomplish. Silvia is also patient in explaining legal terms and context. I have always felt from start to finish that she was as vested as I was to getting my affairs spelled out as close to perfect as possible.”
Marianne R.
St. Petersburg, Pinellas County, FL
“La abogada Silvia se tomó el tiempo para revisar minuciosamente cada documento, identificar posibles riesgos y explicar sus implicaciones de una forma fácil de entender. No es fácil conseguir un abogado que hable bien el español y se tome el tiempo necesario para explicar todo detalladamente. Recomiendo a Silvia a cualquiera que busque una abogada de excelente calidad humana y que genuinamente se preocupe por sus clientes.”
Leonor B.

“A standout quality of Silvia Brett is the time she takes to fully explain the estate planning process, decisions to be made and never once rushed through it. That made the planning process very comfortable and thorough.”
Taylor B.

“We have been wanting to create an estate plan for several years, but always pushed it off. Silvia was the perfect person to guide us through this process. She is extremely professional, competent, organized, and trustworthy. We did not realize the magnitude of decisions to be made and often felt overwhelmed, but Silvia clearly explained everything, never hesitated to answer any questions, was very patient with us, and was always prompt in responding to us. By the end of the process, we felt much more confident and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend Silvia to anyone.”

“Sylvia was the best! She was very professional and handled all the nuances and the out-of-state differences swiftly and accurately. I was the Executor and I reside in North Carolina, so there were some very different requirements than I was accustomed to, as I have had to do this several times. This experience was by far the BEST!! Highly recommend her services when it comes to settling estates!!”

“Sylvia Brett is a consumate professional, possessing extensive knowledge and experience in estate planning and trust execution. I sincerely appreciate her due diligence and innate ability to answer my questions with both patience and rigor. Most notably, my spouse is comfortable knowing we are in good hands!”
Steve Park
Bradenton, Manatee County, FL
“They took excellent care of my family’s probate needs. They were overly attentive to all of our issues and handled everything flawlessly. They communicated everything in a way that made our family feel beyond comfortable. We knew we were in great hands from the start. We could not have asked for a better office to handle our probate issues.!”
Matt Adams
Orlando, Orange County, FL
“Silvia Brett spent a very long time advising and counseling my mother on probate issues. My mother left the conversation feeling genuinely for and attended to. All her questions were answered. Although Mrs. Brett is very busy, she still took the time to follow up with my mother to ensure that everything was still ok course and going well. We have no regrets seeking Mrs. Brett’s legal counsel.
I have also personally sought her legal advice on a separate will issue. She took the time to research the nuanced issue and prepare options for me to consider.
I would use Mrs. Brett time and time again. I will continue to refer her to others. Worth it!!”

Juan Carlos Manzanera
Doral, Miami-Dade County, FL
“Silvia, of Brett Legal, is amazing! She, with "kid gloves," navigated our family through the stress & inclination to procrastinate the inevitable. Our Trust/Wills were completed in a timely, organized, and well thought out fashion. All of the complexities that often stop couples from completing this task; a second marriage, the "black sheep" family member, cost, etc. were eliminated by using Silvia. We are both grateful & relieved! Thank you Brett Legal!”
Ed Farina
Clearwater, Pinellas County, FL
“Without a doubt one of the best things we have ever done. she was able to take something my wife and I had no clue into something very understandable. As there are very many possible confusing directions to go, she guided us to exactly where we needed to be. We are so thankful to Sylvia for putting our worries at ease.”

“I had a great experience working with my Attorney on my Will. The process was explained clearly, all of my questions were answered and everything was handled professionally and efficiently. I feel very confident that everything was done properly and I would highly recommend her services.”
Chance Morgan
St. Petersburg, Pinellas County, FL
“I consulted with Brett Legal while assisting my parents with downsizing from the home they've owned for more than 40 years. It was an emotional process, and I wanted to make sure that the title work for my parent's new purchase was done in a manner that would avoid probate should they pass away while owning the home. Silvia was exceptional in her understanding of the situation as well as the challenges in discussing delicate topics like estate planning with loved ones. While many estate planning attorneys would have likely pushed for the more costly option of creating a trust, Silvia reassured me that in our particular situation it was not necessary. With Silvia's assistance, my parents were able to purchase their new home through an Enhanced Life Estate Deed, ultimately saving our family precious time and money! I will be returning to Brett Legal very soon to structure my own estate planning. Thank you, Silvia!”
