About:
There are several domestic violence statutes in Florida. Domestic violence generally comes into play between a husband and wife.

Family or household members are defined as spouses, former spouses, persons related by blood or marriage, persons who are presently living together as if a family or who have lived together in the past as if a family, and persons who are parents of a child together regardless of whether or not theyâve been married or lived together.

He has handled my, and just recently my daughter's case with the utmost care and professionalism, guiding us through every step with compassion and expertise. His dedication, deep understanding of the law, and genuine concern for his clients are truly remarkable.

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Alan Burton, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the outcome. I had an issue with a company that didn't pay me what I was owed, and Alan Burton was instrumental in helping me win a swift judgment. Thanks to his expertise and thorough approach, I was able to recover the money owed to me, along with additional expenses, totaling $4,500. Throughout the entire process, Alan Burton was incredibly nice, professional, and thorough. He kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I understood all the legal proceedings. His dedication and knowledge were evident, and I always felt confident that my case was in good hands. I highly recommend Alan Burton to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thanks again Alan!"
