Tina Lewert
Family Law Attorney
For the last 22 years, attorney Tina Lewert has been helping her clients navigate the legal and other challenges that come with divorce. As a Board Certified Specialist in family law, Lewert strives to minimize the stress of the process as much as possible, even when the situation becomes emotionally charged, as it often does, understandably, in a divorce.
While Lewert specializes in complex divorce litigation and trial work, fighting hard for her clients’ rights, she is committed to resolving cases efficiently and without the intensity and cost of a lengthy court battle whenever possible.
Lewert handles matters relating to child custody, timesharing, alimony, child support and asset distribution. She strives to help her clients understand the implications of using scorched earth tactics and why it’s often better to resolve matters amicably. She says that most divorce litigants commence their case with the goal of keeping themselves out of court while obtaining whatever they are entitled to by law and moving on with their lives.
Lewert says sometimes emotionally fueled litigants have unreasonable expectations about “having their day in court,” but Florida is a “no fault” state, and judges must follow the law.
“Settlement not only saves immense amounts of money, but it’s often the best thing long term for families, especially when children are involved,” she says. “Divorce means you’ll be ex-spouses, but you will never be ex-parents.
If I don’t think going to trial will be worth it in the end, I would rather counsel my clients to save their money for their children’s future.”
“Unlike other areas of law, family law is not just about contracts and numbers, it’s about all the things people hold dearest in their lives,” says Lewert. “I believe my job is to help people going through a distressing, problematic, and sometimes intolerable situation to move on to the next chapter in their life, which is hopefully better than the last.”
Lewert is one of Florida’s 275 Board Certified “Experts” in Family Law and also is a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Law Mediator.
