I hired Barnett and Gill to assist me through my collaborative divorce (married ten years) in…read moreFebruary 2026. I was given worksheets to fill in with financials and I took the parenting class as instructed. What I was never given were time frames. Their office had to file extensions "on by behalf" that I would not have needed if they had been more transparent. I only knew of the deadlines from my husband's opposing counsel. By the end of April I was still being asked for new information about my financials and an order of contempt was to filed and fine incurred because paperwork was not being processed in time. My husband had to stop the order of contempt. Luckily for me our divorce was amicable between the parties but my time with Barnett and Gill was not. I had to sever my relationship with the firm and come to an agreement with my husband alone to move on. Very disappointed in the level of service. I never spoke to a lawyer (Jana) until I requested an end to our contract. They made a hard time worse for me and will keep my retainer even though their office did nothing in the end to help me. Bad businesspeople with no regard for time management.

This is an update from an original good review posted years ago long before Gill merged with…read moreBarnett. I returned to Thomas for a Child Support modification on the SAME divorce case he worked on 9 years ago and was charged double the amount upfront! Just for a modification! Guess this is due to the fancy new renovations in the office. Secondly my Ex's lawyer who is a super junior lawyer btw was literally "WALKING THE DOG" on me while Thomas did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING on my case except go on vacation for a month and leave it with Jana (Barnett) who had no clue what was going on! He didn't even tell me he left the case with her. It wasn't until I called to find out what was going on that I found out he dropped the ball! So $5,000 later and all that was done was about 3 electronic motions filed. MY paperwork WAS RIDDLED with ERRORS, they kept filing me to the court with the wrong name, wrong address and not only were there multiple mistakes in my file that were made on the part of their firm. I sent Jana Barnett an email and said: I can see that mistakes are the norm as you have you have also managed to send me all banking information statements including accounts and routing numbers for the following clients: ANTHONY NEWPORT OR APRIL NEWPORT 8** C*******S L**P B*****N FL 3*** After firing Gill, I spoke directly with my ex' s Lawer pro Se. She confirmed little to NOTHING regarding communication between her and my lawyer. I then asked for a statement of itemized billing where I discovered that Gill/Barnett were actually double billing me for the errors THEY CREATED and had to go back and fix! When I called them about it (via email). they replied" it doesn't matter the retainer is paid and there's no refunds anyway".... LISTEN TO ME NOW OR BELIEVE ME LATER... Thomas has the SOFTEST BACKBONE IN THE GAME!!! He will start right out the gate telling you what he cannot do! He will pass you off to his colleague and bill at the highest rate. They do sloppy work and do not give a damn! THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND DO NADA!!!!! They don't listen for understanding & you will be constantly repeating and explaining yourself over and over and over. Don't walk, RUN from this FIRM!!! I can prove EVERTHING I am saying! I'm seriously considering filing a complaint with the Bar!

She and her staff were professional, attentive, efficient, prompt and had my back during the entire process. I went into my divorce apprehensive that my ex was going to take advantage of me financially, and Angela made sure that was not going to happen. I never waited long for a return phone call or email, she guided to the process each step of the way and made me comfortable that all would be fine at the end, which it was. THANK YOU Angela!

I have never walked into an office full of complete Rockstars until I walked into Mockler Leiner…read moreLaw. I'm sitting here in awe of the verdict that just came down in my favor. I never expected I could actually win custody of my kids given the precedent that had already been set. On paper, the odds were not in my favor. Opposing counsel looked impressive: all the accolades, the certifications, the recognition. He was not someone I was looking forward to battling. I started my case pro se because I had so little hope of any real success. Then the first hearing got scheduled, and while I consider myself competent, I knew I needed someone to actually represent me. I spoke with 10 lawyers. Richard Mockler was the only one worth a damn. He called me in the early hours of the morning, and I knew immediately he was the one I wanted in my corner. I could tell just from talking to him that he was deeply well-versed in child custody law, and then I saw all the accolades, certificates, and awards to back it up. But he's not just a great lawyer. He's a great human, and I don't say that lightly. I've had the unfortunate experience of lawyers who pretended to care. Richard actually does, and he proves it time and time again. He's the king of the rockstars in that office, and it's obvious he's built the right team around him. It would be easy to discount this review because I won and I'm happy. But I fully expected to lose. I was hoping to walk away with a few concessions at best. I would have written this review word for word either way. I count myself lucky to have even had the chance to meet Richard at all. Then there's his partner, Angela Leiner, who was on nearly every call with me and Richard. She's the whole package too. It became clear fast that she was the one keeping the case centered and moving forward. She was the voice of reason every time I felt like jumping off a ledge. She doesn't sugarcoat anything, and she still has a way of making you feel heard and valued. I made plenty of mistakes along the way, and she kept me focused and moving smartly forward the entire time. She held it together for all of us. Hali was the first paralegal I worked with, and she was professional and knowledgeable from the very first exchange. Her answers were insightful, and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She actually mapped out a whole process for handling my documents that stopped me from making further mistakes. A true Rockstar and an excellent point of contact. Katherine spent countless hours with me preparing motions and making sure every document was in order. Everything she produced was expert-level. She hit every single deadline, even when it meant working late or putting in extra time with me. She is the pillar of professionalism in that office. I also have to give a special shout-out to the other paralegals and office staff, who were incredibly responsive to every request. They didn't waste a minute or drop a single ball. If you're looking for a legal team that truly specializes in what they do, call them first. They are the outlier firm that actually cares and will give you everything they have. They've literally restored my faith in lawyers, and that is saying a whole lot. They have my highest recommendation, across the board.

Applications were mailed (which takes forever) with 1) unsigned checks sent directly from the paralegal office 2) name of the business spelled incorrectly 3) wrong info about our business. The founder's helper kept sending me the proof from the Florida website that they had done their job, but she never looked at the words. It clearly said application received, application rejected. The founder kept giving me the wrong info on why the application had been rejected, when it was because one section had not been filled. Half our money was refunded. Why not the whole thing? Who knows. No follow up. I would not recommend.
