Family Law Services for Deerfield Beach Residents
Family cases overlap. Divorce raises property and support questions, custody raises schedule and relocation questions, and we handle all of it as one strategy.
Divorce
We represent Deerfield Beach clients in contested and uncontested divorce, including high-net-worth cases involving business interests, real estate, and complex marital estates.
Child Custody and Time-Sharing
From workable parenting plans to high-conflict custody litigation, we protect your relationship with your children under Florida’s best-interests standard. Learn more about child custody and time-sharing.
Alimony
Spousal support under Florida’s current law comes in defined forms with defined limits. We handle alimony claims on both sides of the request.
Division of Assets
Equitable distribution divides marital assets and liabilities fairly, and getting there requires accurate valuation. We manage the division of assets from household finances to business holdings.
Paternity
Establishing paternity gives an unmarried parent enforceable rights and gives a child legal security. We handle agreed and disputed cases.
Parental Relocation
Florida has strict rules for moving with a child when a parenting plan exists. We represent parents seeking to relocate and parents opposing a move.
Mediation and Resolution
Many family disputes settle in mediation, faster and at far lower cost than trial. Ms. Lewert brings her certified mediator’s perspective to every negotiation.
How Deerfield Beach Family Law Cases Work
Deerfield Beach is in Broward County, which places local family cases in the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit. Divorce, custody, support, and paternity matters are filed with the Broward County Clerk of Courts and are generally heard in the Family Division at the Central Courthouse, 201 SE 6th Street in Fort Lauderdale. Ms. Lewert practices in both the Broward and Palm Beach County family courts, and because Deerfield Beach sits on the county line, confirming the correct venue for your circumstances is one of the first things the firm will do.
A Florida family case typically opens with a petition, for example, a petition for dissolution of marriage in a divorce, followed by mandatory financial disclosure from both sides. Courts push parties toward mediation before trial, and most cases resolve there. Preparation is what separates a strong settlement from a weak one, so we build every case as if a judge will eventually see it.
In Deerfield Beach’s waterfront and country club communities, that preparation often means untangling a genuinely complex marital estate: a business, investment properties, retirement accounts, and debts that must all be identified, valued, and classified as marital or non-marital before equitable distribution can be done fairly. Cases like these reward an attorney who has handled them many times, and who knows when to bring in valuation professionals.
The starting point is always a confidential consultation with a Deerfield Beach family law attorney, usually held over Zoom. You will describe your situation, get plain answers about legal rights, and talk openly about cost, because fees depend on what your case actually requires, and guessing serves no one.
Reviews for Lewert Law, LLC Deerfield Beach, FL
Virginia Powers
Tina helped me win a relocation case against “the giant”. A case many insisted was a waste of time because I would never win. Tina is up to date on current statues and case law which lists out certain objectives a relocation must meet in order to be granted. I am amazed by her intelligence and ability to interpret law and break it down to me in an elementary manner. Throughout the case, she was always detail oriented, eloquent, ethical and most of all, Tina possesses a sixth sense of what facts to focus on, what is important for the case. She adequately prepared me and herself for each trial day. I can not say enough praise about this amazing lawyer, hopefully I’ll never need her again, but I wouldn’t complain if I do. Tina and her assistant Sharon treated me like family. They were the light during the worst part of my life. I don’t want to share too much about her strategies but this woman is AMAZING at cross examination. She came up with angles I would have never dreamed of. It’s important to trust Tina, she won’t steer you wrong. Don’t forget, while she fights hard for you, it is also important for you to be diligent as well.

I hired Tina Lewert to represent me in my contentious divorce. I had consulted with several other highly rated divorce lawyers in Boca and she just outshined the others from the moment we first spoke. Highly recommend this lawyer to handle your divorce - don't fall for the others who talk a big talk and try to scare you to stir up the drama which stirs up their fees too. Tina was always honest with me about what I could expect, about the law, and the pros and cons, and she explained the law and how it applied to my case better to me than 3 other [supposedly excellent] lawyers combined. She knows what she's doing but she's not pompous about it and she's easy to talk to. Her office and staff are also great and I never had a hard time reaching her. After a very difficult battle with my ex who was completely unreasonable, Tina was able to negotiate a settlement of my case and she did a fantastic job for me. My life is so much better after this divorce and Tina and her firm had a huge hand in that.

Ladies and gentlemen in the world of fighting legal battles you pay for what you get! If you’re looking to win ( if that’s actually possible in a legal battle) this is the firm you need to be with. I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with my attorney Tammara Grossman , since 2020, steering me through some real legal and monetary issues with my ex-wife. I have found her to be Professional and ethical, guiding me in the correct direction legally even when I didn’t always like it. The end result was about as best for me as you could possibly get. I’m happy.

Tina Lewert instilled in me that there are lawyers in family law that understand unique situations. I had horrible experiences with several lawyers and finding Ms. Lewert was nothing shy of a Godsend. She wholeheartedly understood my situation and was the only lawyer to resolve my 10 year nightmare. I cannot thank Ms. Lewert enough for the freedom she gave me and my son. She has proven to be the absolute best! I highly recommend Tina Lewert, Law for her expertise, honesty and commitment to her clients.
Meredith Chatman
Tina is a wonderful attorney. She guided me through my ugly case and ultimately her wisdom lead me to successful settlement of my case. She wasn’t afraid to advise me of the pros AND cons of my case, and the legal system which can be brutal, and I always felt like she was being straight with me, instead of just telling me what I wanted to hear like another attorney I spoke with. Tina is quick on her feet and I could also tell that she is respected by judges and other attorneys (by the way everyone treated her when we did have to go to court to finalize the divorce once settled). If you need a strong, confident divorce lawyer who also happens to be a good person, hire Tina Lewert.
