    “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.

    “They got me the best possible legal and logical outcome.”
    Mr. Haynes’ secret to success, in my view, is that he is experienced, works very hard and loves his job. He is also very devoted to his clients. Further, he is always on top of your case and is always in communication with you. His staff is very professional and kind as well. I could write several pages about Mr. Haynes, but I will leave you with this, if you need an attorney to truly fight for you and get the best possible result, go with Mr. Haynes an the law firm Haynes & de Paz, P.A. They got me the best possible legal and logical outcome.

    “Will definitely use again if ever need to!”
    After 3 plus years of dealing with a foreclosure surplus issue, in less than 24 hours of speaking to Benjamin Haynes for the first time, court hearing was next day, it was finally over and resolved and with positive results. I wish I would have know about them before ! Will definitely use again if ever need to.

    “You won me the full amount of my foreclosure surplus funds without having to pay any other parties!”
    My conversations with you and your employees especially Ashlee have been tremendous, very informative and helpful . When I first received notices from other firms about the foreclosure surplus funds I thought it was all a joke , I thought you’ve got to be kidding me since the house is not worth that much, but then when I received your letter and confirmed the sale on the internet, I selected your firm and you were very informative about my marital situation when we first talked on the phone , for that I am extremely grateful for your knowledge on my situation. You helped win me the full amount of my foreclosure surplus funds without having to pay any other parties. If you need a great Tampa foreclosure surplus lawyer, hire Ben Haynes!

    “We would trust Haynes and De Paz to represent us again!”
    Haynes Law Group represented our foreclosure case for over a year. It was really nice to have a lawyer that constantly communicated with us, and made us feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. They were able to get us a very favorable decision, and we would trust Haynes to represent us again in any legal situation.
