"Kate is one of a kind! Her ethics, drive, expertise and support was impressive and reassuring to both my son and myself."While my adult son was in town over the Christmas holiday, he was pulled over for driving without his headlights on after dark. (The Valet parking at his hotel had turned them off of auto.) He had consumed a few drinks over the course of the evening and the police officer asked him to do the breathalyzer test. When my son refused, he was taken to jail. I received a call from my daughter-in-law, early the next morning. I called Kate, as I had met her a few times and was impressed by her work ethic, knowledge of the law, professionalism and "humanness" . She was at home at the time of my call, but pulled up the arrest report etc. She told me what time the hearing before the judge was to be that afternoon and said she would meet me at the building where the hearing was to be. (Did I mention this was a Saturday morning?) By the time I arrived, Kate had already spoken to my son, collecting information necessary as she went along. When the judge entered his Chambers, Kate approached him immediately, asking that he hear my son's case first, for reasons that she had already informed us of. Already, I'm impressed, but it only got better. Because Kate is so motivated to help her clients, is extremely intelligent, and has extensive knowledge and understanding of the law and the system's processes, she proactively met with the Prosecutor and was able to get the charges reduced to a lesser charge. This resulted in a SIGNIFICANTLY better outcome for my son. Kate went above and beyond what she was paid to do, in many ways. One of which was letting my son know, in no uncertain terms, the seriousness of this matter and exactly what he needed to do to follow the exact rules of the law. She let him know exactly what the consequences would be, should he not. She kept in touch with my son the whole step of the way; consulting, counseling and yes, checking, to make sure he stayed on track with dates and responsibilities. Yes, Kate is one of a kind! Her ethics, drive, expertise and support was impressive and reassuring to both my son and myself. She is No. 1 in Northeast Florida, as far as we are concerned. I am confident if we have the opportunity to work with this wonderful attorney again, it will under different circumstances, but the end results will be the same.- Cynthia

With proficiency and skill she pursued our interests with great results We highly recommend Ms. Mesic.- Former Client

"I feel very fortunate to have found Kate Mesic when I was in such a desperate need of legal guidance."I want to thank Kate Mesic for representing me in court over the last two months. I feel very fortunate to have found Kate Mesic when I was in such a desperate need of legal guidance. Her professionalism and expertise gave me the assurance and security I needed to know that things were going to be alright in light of such a difficult case. From very beginning to the end, I never felt alone while my case was open and always felt that I had an aggressive and knowledgeable lawyer watching my back. Any question I had was always promptly answered. Her hard work ensured a more than favorable result with all charges being dropped. I highly recommend Kate Mesic to anyone who should need legal services. She is the BEST!- Allen

"I would recommend her without reservation."I know know Kate personally and professionally. Unfortunately I was involved in a 3rd DUI (over 36 yrs time period). Obviously I was in a very precarious situation. She gave excellent advice/council to me which I followed. I believe I received the BEST possible outcome from this difficult position. No jail time, lowest fines applicable, and early release from probation. She was available by phone, e-mail or in person as much as I needed her. All contacts were returned, something rare in any business! I would recommend her without reservation. Professional excellence, and exceptional personal treatment.- Ken

"Kate was extremely prompt with her assistance. She was able to get the best possible resolve working with the prosecution."We contacted Ms. Mesic upon a recommendation from a friend in Tampa. Our issue was with regard to a felony case in Jacksonville. Kate was extremely prompt with her assistance. She was able to get the best possible resolve working with the prosecution. The case was ultimately dropped. She would consistently keep in touch with us regarding her work on the case and giving us updates on her progress. No only is she a wonderful lawyer she is also a wonderful person. Very personable and easy to work with.- Kathy

"Kate was able to get the 4 charges faced against me dismissed! I’m not sure anyone else could have helped."From the moment I walked into Kate's office, she put an extremely stressful, uncertain situation into an organized plan of defense that put my worries and anxiety to rest. Kate was able to get the 4 charges faced against me dismissed! I’m not sure anyone else could have helped. She kept me informed, answered all my questions and most importantly kept me focused on the positive and doing what I needed to do to get through this. She is very knowledgeable, helpful and gracious. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need.- Daniel

"She was dedicated to my case, always kept me informed each step of the way, and genuinely cared about the outcome."On two separate occasions I have hired Mrs. Mesic to represent me criminal charges. The first was a high fine/substantial point speeding ticket, and the second was a criminal citation for driving while license suspended. In both instances Mrs. Mesic was able to get the charges dismissed with no penalties. She was dedicated to my case, always kept me informed each step of the way, and genuinely cared about the outcome. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through legal issues.- Ray
