Working with Ann Fitz was the best choice I could have ever made. I was facing multiple counts of federal charges, including healthcare fraud, obstruction of justice and money laundering. Ann took the time to look at the facts in my case and push back on the prosecutors to the point that I was never even indicted. She fought hard for me and what she believed was right. I had previously worked with two other attorneys on this case who were almost willing to let me accept a horrible and unjust plea deal. I took the case to Ann, she used my evidence to show the prosecutor that indicting this case was not in his best interest. Ann is extremely thorough, she will go through everything with a fine tooth comb to find the best possible solution for your case. She CARES. She spent hours on the phone and in person with me discussing my concerns and answering my questions. She is an extremely intelligent woman and very strategic. Ann is who you want on your side if you ever are in a difficult situation. She literally saved my life, my career and for that I am forever grateful to her! She is the best in South Florida. Hands down!

Ann represented me in an arbitration. She was professional and thorough in her work, staying one step ahead of the other side during the entire case. I highly recommend her.
