    “Thank you for all your help!!”
    I just wanted to send a quick note and tell you how impressed I was in your handling of my case. From the beginning you took the time time to explain the process and what to expect along the way all of which resulted in the best conclusion I could have hoped for. I can not express the relief I feel that I can finally put this behind me and move forward. Thank you for all your help!!

    “I was very happy with the service provided!”
    I was very happy with the service provided. The staff was patient and understanding and were always available to answer my questions. I was most impressed with Attorney Haynes taking time on his Saturday to personally call me regarding an upcoming deadline in my foreclosure case. Mr. Haynes was able to get my mortgage loan modified to an affordable monthly payment so that I can keep my home and my foreclosure case was dismissed!

    “I highly recommend Mr. Haynes to assist in your surplus funds case... my review is just one of the many that can vouch for his remarkable professionalism and services. You honestly won't regret it.”
    We contacted Haynes & De Paz as we quickly realized we required assistance obtaining surplus funds from a foreclosure sale. Being from Canada and having an extra messy case with numerous parties involved - the process was extra confusing and we did not know the best way to go about this. We initially thought it would be a simple procedure in that once the sale occurred and once there was confirmation that there were in fact surplus funds - we'd fill out a basic template form to obtain those funds. We couldn't have been more wrong but this is a common misconception. After an attempt to contact the court with no response, we quickly realized we needed the help from an expert. We located Mr. Benjamin Haynes at Haynes & De Paz but had concerns being that he was located in a different county in FL than the court was in... Mr. Haynes didn't even bat an eye. I filled out a form online requesting information and within minutes he called me personally. The entire procedure including the Motion took less than two weeks and I can't believe how efficient he was. He and his assistant, Ashlee are remarkable at communicating with you and updating you every step of the way. The legal fees are reasonable and well worth it. This turned a nightmare into a dream. I highly recommend Mr. Haynes to assist in your surplus funds case... my review is just one of the many that can vouch for his remarkable professionalism and services. You honestly won't regret it.

    “Their timely responses and caring attitude made going through a difficult time that much easier!”
    I am very pleased with the level of service I received from Ben and Ashlee at Haynes Law Group. From the moment I walked into the office Ashlee was very warm and accommodating -- even though I returned the favor by spilling a bit of water on the floor. They promptly cleaned it up and we continued with the consultation. I am very observant and pay attention to the little things. I did not notice a hint of irritation or annoyance over the accidental spill. Their timely responses and caring attitude made going through a difficult time that much easier. There was even an instance where I sent an email to the office after "normal" business hours -- expecting a response first thing in the morning. To my surprise and within minutes, the response to my email was waiting in my inbox. I just wanted to thank Ben and Ashlee for being so gracious and supportive and I would absolutely recommend Haynes Law Group to friends and family.

    “Awesome”
    Ben, You and your team saved me from foreclosure . The idea of this ever happening to me was unfathomable . It brought me to my knees , but you turned that around for me. The referral for a real estate agent, Tonya Giddens was a blessing. She is amazing! I could not have managed this very difficult time without her. I trusted her from the very first time she spoke with me. Thank you so very much for representing me . You and your team were very responsive to me and very professional . I so appreciated that. I hope you all have a happy and prosperous new year!
