Attorney Information
Overview
Angela first experienced divorce as a child and later as a parent who earned full custody of her daughter. Understanding how legal issues impacted the direction of her life, Angela switched careers and dedicated herself to family law. As a full-time single parent, Angela undertook an intensive five-year program in which she earned a Philosophy Degree from UCLA and her Juris Doctor degree from Southwestern University School of Law. She moved to South Florida, and guided by a client-centered philosophy, opened Neave Family Law Group, P.A.. Angela balances her work ethic and capacity for mastering complex legal work with large measures of empathy and respect.
“Issues of family law often put clients in a state of crisis at a time when the legal process demands they make major life decisions. My role is to advocate with good judgement and a commitment to helping clients recover their peace of mind.”
Angela is a skilled trial lawyer who has litigated all varieties of family law issues. She thrives in the courtroom, where she has earned a reputation for tenacious representation. Angela specializes in high-conflict custody cases and complex property-division matters.
“Family law is rarely winner takes all. Our record in the courtroom allows us to really push for our clients in negotiating settlements. And a good settlement is usually the best outcome for all involved.”
Angela is trained in collaborative divorce and offers it as an alternative to contested divorce litigation. She has also served as a pro bono guardian ad litem for the 17th judicial circuit in dependency matters and has been appointed as a guardian ad litem in family cases. Angela shares her expertise by teaching and sitting on panels for seminars by the Broward County Bar Association.

Hired Attorney 2021Angela Neave is any client's worst nightmare. I hired her to help me with custody and reunite me with my child! Our first meeting was encouraging, but after she got the cashier's check for $5K, I was pawned off on an intern and the paralegal who knew nothing. The only thing Angela Neave did well charged me a lot of money ($8000 within two weeks)! Her unimaginable greediness ruined everything and, most importantly, my vulnerable time! I didn't see my child for a long time because of a backlog in the court system, and Angela Neave, instead of striking a deal with my ex! Made it everything more complex and only increased our disagreements to make me a milch cow and pay for every breath I take in and outside of her office while they are playing ping pong with my case! Even when I fired her, she continued to bill me with nonsense stuff! Angela Neave completely works for her own agenda, and she has nothing saint! And her cheapest trick is when you are on the phone with them, they will put you on hold for 8-9 minutes and then charge you for every second! I recently filed a lawsuit against Angela Neave and her scam firm, and I am also finishing a YouTube video about her fraudulent business invoices! Stay away from this so-called family attorney! She is the worst human being I've ever met. A horrible person for any family!
