What Our Clients Say
Every client matters. Bucataru Law Firm is committed to providing responsive, practical, and dedicated representation in every family law matter.
Ian represented me over the course of 4 years in my divorce as well as my ex-husband’s many attempts to modify visitation and child support. In every situation Ian dealt with my case fast and blocked all the tricks my ex tried to play. Everything Ian filed was approved by both the judge and the magistrate almost without change. I highly recommend Ian for any family law case.
Gabriella
Tallahassee
Ian was always honest and took time to explain the legal process. Ian was balanced and never simply told me what I wanted to hear. Another standout characteristic is that Ian was always responsive to my contact. I am deeply grateful for his trustworthiness, highly competent legal skill and knowledge, reliability, and a genuine care for me and my child that shows up in his legal efforts.
Tamara
Tallahassee
Ian was there every step of the way and laid a long term strategy that prevailed and secured the boys’ wellbeing with me having majority custody and restricting their travel with their other parent. I am eternally grateful for that as my ex has been unable to overturn our initial parenting plan order. Ian in responsive and has a sharp legal mind. He has shown up for me and my children above and beyond what is required.
