Experienced Fort Lauderdale Divorce Attorney Advocating for Florida Families
Vanessa L. Prieto, Sole Practitioner
Vanessa Prieto has more than 25 years of experience representing clients in family law, civil litigation, and commercial litigation cases. In her dissolution (divorce) and post-dissolution cases, which often include matters involving alimony, child support, custody/timesharing, and domestic violence, she puts the welfare of children first, offering dedicated and compassionate counsel. Such matters are often times high conflict and require not only knowledge but the professionalism and determination that Ms. Prieto provides to all clients. In addition, she handles appellate cases as well as general civil litigation matters such as real estate matters, contracts, and business disputes. Believing preparation is the key to success, Ms. Prieto guides clients to the swiftest possible resolution with minimal court involvement whenever possible. She takes great pride in being able to turn her clients’ lives around while saving them both time and money.
In addition to representing clients in divorce, family law and other practice areas, Ms. Prieto is a published author and previously served as an Adjunct Professor at the Shepard Broad Law Center, Nova Southeastern University (NSU).
