Cipparone &
Cipparone did an exceptional job representing my brother's estate during probate. I was out of state in North Carolina while the estate was in Florida, and everything was handled seamlessly. The entire team was professional, patient, and kind. I would especially like to acknowledge Janet, Paul’s paralegal. who was
consistently responsive, knowledgeable, and a true pleasure to work with. During a difficult time, their clear
communication and steady guidance gave me great peace of mind.
I am truly grateful for their help and would recommend them without hesitation. Gay-Lynn Turner

Paul Cipparone was extremely knowledgeable and thorough in helping me set up a living trust and related estate planning documents. He took the time to clearly explain each step of the process, answered all of my questions in plain language, and ensured everything was structured properly for both current needs and long-term protection.

Paul’s expertise and attention to detail made what could have been a complicated process feel straightforward and stress-free. He was professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure the trust was set up correctly. I would highly recommend Paul Cipparone to anyone seeking guidance with a living trust, estate planning, or asset protection.

Don’t wait—getting the proper protections in place early makes this process far easier for your loved ones when the time comes.

I can’t say enough good things about J. Marc Jones and the outstanding representation he provided in my case against my commercial landlord. I originally hired a well-known Orlando firm, but their questionable billing practices and reluctance to take the matter to court left me frustrated and disheartened. From my very first meeting with Marc, I knew I had found the right attorney. He had the perfect combination of professionalism, confidence, and a fighter’s mindset.

Marc’s deep knowledge of the law was evident at every step. He took the time to clearly explain my options — including any unintended consequences — and always made sure I was the one making the final decisions. He was also incredibly skilled in dealing with an extremely difficult opposing counsel, keeping things focused and professional while still being firm and strategic.

Thanks to Marc’s expertise and persistence, we not only won the case by summary judgment in county court, but we also prevailed on appeal — and even recovered five years’ worth of legal fees. I am beyond grateful for his guidance and advocacy, and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of a sharp, ethical, and truly dedicated attorney.

I've worked with Paul and Ryan and the Cipparone & Cipparone team for many years, and they have consistently delivered outstanding service. They've handled the closings for several of my business transactions, always with the highest level of professionalism, attention to detail, and prompt communication. Every deal was handled smoothly and efficiently, and I’ve always felt confident knowing they would get the deal done for my clients. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced, and responsive closing attorney, I highly recommend their services.

Wonderful experience with Cipparone & Cipparone on my condo closing. My realtor had automatically set me up with a different closing company. I decided to shop around to ensure I was getting fair rates, etc. Cipparone was one of the companies I found online and from the very beginning I found them to be responsive, fair, and extremely honest. Cipparone's quote to me was much less than the one my realtor had set me up with as there were several lines/fees that Cipparone wasn't quoting me on. I asked about that and Cipparone told me I didn't need those for a condo. THANK YOU Cipparone for the honesty. Right there, it made me realize I needed to use Cipparone & Cipparone. Then, while working with Cipparone through the closing process, I've had the pleasure of working with Debbie in their office. So nice, kind, and helpful. A complete joy. Thank you so much Debbie for making this such an easy and in the end enjoyable process. Overall, I would recommend Cipparone & Cipparone for your next real estate transaction, and for other legal needs. They're A+++++

Shout-out to Debra in the Title Department! A+ customer service and communication. Debbie and the team are a cut above the rest and makes the entire process of closing a home super easy. Thank you for your continued 5-star service!! Even though I switched lenders just 3 days before closing they worked with myself and my lender to get the deal done - their entire team is amazing!

I am in the process of Selling my Business. Not an easy process and hope never to repeated. Ryan Cipparone has been one of the best decision I have made in my 40 year business career. It was obvious from the start he was extremely knowledgeable and truly caring thru the process that I was ultimately protected in all parts of the Purchase Agreement. Though I am located in Washington State and he in Florida, it had no affect in communication. Deadlines (requiring him to work Sundays) were met and his collaborative approach made me feel we were part of a team.

Truly appreciate all he has done and will do.

Paul and his team care about their clients, employees and their healthy work environment.

Cipp. & Cipp. Made my closing a breeze and I would highly recommend them to anyone in a real estate transaction. Their prices are regulated, as are all title companies, but with the backup of their real-estate attorneys, they can help with issues that crop up from time to time.
