You Shouldn’t Have to Face This Alone

Home

Whatever brought you here—a death in the family, a marriage falling apart, or the nagging feeling you still haven’t gotten your affairs in order—you’re probably carrying more weight than you should be.

Without the right plan, Florida’s courts step in and make those decisions for you. By the time most families realize that, it’s too late to undo the damage.

Hundreds of Florida families have sat where you’re sitting—stressed, uncertain, and just wanting someone they can trust to handle it. Martha and Brett built this firm around exactly that. 

The Attorneys Who Will Handle Your Case

Brett Feinstein, Esq. — Senior Partner

If the other side has strong representation, or your case is complex and the stakes are high, Brett is who you want in your corner. With 34 years of handling the most difficult civil, transactional, family law and probate disputes in Florida, he brings the strategic experience that levels the playing field—and he won’t stop until you get the outcome you need.
Martha Mendez, Esq. — Managing Partner

Martha built this firm around a simple idea: every family deserves an attorney who truly listens before they advise. Whether you’re navigating probate, planning your estate, or working through a family law matter, she takes the time to understand your specific situation before building your plan. Families keep coming back (and sending their friends) because she’s transparent, responsive, and genuinely cares about getting it right.

Julio Morales was excellent. Him and his team were swift and extremely helpful. 1 month probate with a very justified rate.

Julio recently supported me through the probate process after the death of my parents. We had one account that was not included in their trust (work was done by another attorney at another office unrelated to Family Life Law). Julio stands out as a top notch attorney because of his incredible responsiveness and follow through. Chase Bank did not want to disburse funds, even with a judge's order signed, but Julio persisted and supported me, going well above and beyond the scope I expected. I have recommended Julio to several friends/family already and have told other attorneys I know how incredible he is! I plan to work with Julio to now create my own trust and go through the process! I highly recommend Julio.

This was a very trying event, life changing. My main concern was making sure my son was in safe place, healthy, and happy. The Family Law Firm's entire staff made sure that was always the case and they included this father's well-being also. Stressful times made as easy as possible. Somehow they found a way to make me look a that big picture and not just the immediate resolution. Although, those moments if immediate solution were taken care of also. The communication was exceptional, Mr. Brett listened, and when he needed to let me know to calm down and stop talking so much because it could be costly, he found humorous ways to let me know. We all know these matters are costly, but no money can replace keeping a family from resolving such issues than with civility and as amicable as possible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the entire F&M "A Law Firm" staff. Be Blessed Always, Mr. Brett, Ms. Sarah, Ms. Capote, and Ms. Priscilla. Take good care.

Elvis Acosta was great, he helped us out with everything we needed in terms of our estate planning. He was very thorough and explained everything and was patient. He made great recommendations and we're very happy with our service and Martha Mendez Esq. All of the personnel were friendly!

What Working With Us Looks Like

Whether it’s an estate planning, probate, or family law issue, our team of attorneys is here to bring you the best outcome.

01

Tell Us Everything.

Your first conversation is a judgment-free deep dive. You leave knowing exactly where you stand and what comes next.

02

Get a Clear Path Forward.

We lay out exactly what's going to happen, when, and why—so you always know where things stand.

03

Get Back to Your Life.

We take it from here. You'll stay informed at every step, but you won't have to manage us. We handle it—so you don't have to.

Three Areas of Law. Everything That Matters.

Your home, your kids, your assets, the people you love most.
These are the things at stake in every case we take on.

Estate Planning

Without one, a judge decides what happens to your assets and who manages your money and medical decisions if you can't speak for yourself. Your family inherits a mess that could have been avoided. We make sure none of that ever happens to you.

Probate

When a loved one passes away, their estate typically has to go through Florida's court-supervised probate process, which can drag on far longer than families expect. We handle every step, so your family can focus on healing.

Family Law

The decisions made early in your case shape everything that follows. Miami-Dade's courts move fast, and the wrong move at the start is hard to undo. We know these statutes, we know these courts, and we use that to protect you.
