If I could sum up my experience with Elizabeth, I would say she under promised and overdelivered. She is absolutely fantastic in every way and if I could give her more than five stars, I would not hesitate to do so! She is incredibly thorough and detail-oriented which made a huge impact on my application to the Florida Bar.  Most importantly, the outcome she helped me to achieve was far better than I could have imagined or hoped for. Her professionalism and ability to convey empathy towards me when I was disclosing shameful and embarrassing information gave me confidence and allowed me to be fully honest and transparent without feeling judged. By contrast, her straight-forward approach helped to keep me on track and organized.  Additionally, her experience and breadth of knowledge was crucial to the success of my outcome. I have already recommended her to several of my colleagues and will continue to recommend her for anyone in the future who is looking for guidance on their path to admission to the Florida Bar.

Elizabeth is one of the most professional, caring, and dedicated attorneys in her field. Coming out of law school I had issues with my character and fitness. I felt a huge problem on my shoulders that looked impossible to solve… the first and only attorney I contacted was Elizabeth. After a lengthy and emotional phone call, I knew she was the one. It wasn’t easy and it was extremely stressful but Elizabeth kept me strong!! She will keep you grounded throughout the process and give you the strength to succeed. Thank you Elizabeth!

As an attorney from another jurisdiction applying to the FL Bar, I was selected for an Investigative Hearing before the FBBE. I concluded that retaining counsel would probably be the best option under the circumstance — and was I ever right! Elizabeth was wonderful! She went through my application with a fine-toothed comb and found all sorts of errors, unintentional omissions, and ambiguities I would have never noticed by myself. She also gave me so much practical advice on how to most effectively present myself to the FBBE, both in my application and during my Hearing, that by the time the Hearing arrived I was able to sail through it without any surprises or hiccups.

Forget your ego; forget the fact that you’re an intelligent, educated person — none of that matters in regard to the Byzantine world of Bar applications. Elizabeth instructed me to do many things that were counterintuitive, and I often found myself instinctively resisting what later turned out to be excellent advice. She knows the process very, very well and really dedicates the time to make sure that what you present to the board is your best possible application and answers.

So if you’re thinking about hiring her — my strong recommendation is to do it!  And listen to her and have confidence in the fact that, no matter what you may think of the difficulty of the process, she is always working in your corner. In my case, she helped me achieve the result I was looking for. I have every confidence she will do the same for you.

The work that Elizabeth Conan did for me in her representation with the Florida Bar was nothing short of remarkable. She was very straightforward on what was expected of me to do and was extremely professional. Based on her instructions I was more than adequately prepared and received my recommendation to be admitted within a few months.

If you are looking for an attorney to help you with the Florida Bar Elizabeth Conan is the way to go hands down. If you follow her instructions, you will not be disappointed her service greatly exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Ms. Conan, for your exceptional service.

Elizabeth is a role model attorney that deeply cares for her clients. I hope I do not hold the record for the longest running client of her’s but I bet I am close. If you are reading these reviews most likely you are in a bad situation, and you might not even realize how bad of a situation you are in. You need someone experienced, and Elizabeth is experienced. Elizabeth is also prompt, thorough, fair, and most importantly kind. Elizabeth, thank you for helping me achieve admission to the bar!

I want to provide the highest recommendation to anyone who needs the assistance of an attorney during the process of an investigative hearing with the Florida bar. Elizabeth Conan is truly a professional and is highly skilled in her preparation for her clients. She provided direction for me with instructions and recommendations for amendments of each question that required more clarity and corrections on what needed to be presented. My experience with Elizabeth was exceptional and her counsel and review of my complete application allowed me to have my application accepted with a short investigative Hearing. Elizabeth prepared me well and was always available for additional time to counsel me on needed direction. I whole heartedly recommend Elizabeth Conan to anyone who is going through the Florida Bar application process. I wish I had engaged her services from the outset.
