Pros
  • Well known, established brand.

Akerman - A Firm Of Diversity And Expertise

Akerman's diversity, it is a firm of the top of the class in diversity and the firm is ranked for its expertise in the middle market. As mentioned, its main strength is its diversity. I love the firm's practice, the professionalism, and it is a firm I've been a partner in multiple transactions. I love it. I don't think it is as diverse as it used to be - I think it has been in the industry a long time and has been doing a good job. I recommend Akerman to all of my clients as it's a firm of…

Pros
  • The team
  • A very knowledgeable group who take great care
  • Proactive attitude towards our needs (and we do quite alot)
Cons
  • Nothing really just more growth

Pleasant experience in dealing w employees and staff

I like that they have very skilled attorneys who are able to help with all aspects regarding my legal matters from start-to finish which makes them easy going as well! They also offer many payment options so you can pay what works best at your current situation or budget. There isn't much dislike about this office but some things could be improved such as having better security when coming into certain areas especially after hours/on weekends; however there were no issues while working here…

Pros
  • Great staff, great lawyers
  • Extremely helpful in getting clients paid for services rendered (I am an accountant)
  • Fast response time via email if needed
Cons
  • There are troubles
