There are not enough good things I can say about Mrs. Budnik. My wife and I brought her onto a case after losing faith in a different lawyer, when our "slam-dunk" easement case seemed to falter. She came in, took control, and brought us through trial with amazing efficiency and results. She has the courage and integrity to tell her clients when they need to let things go, and what to focus on to achieve their goals in the case. She is on of the best procedural lawyers I’ve ever seen. Pricing is commensurate with her skill and she seemed to bill less time than she actually worked on my case. If you need a lawyer, she should be your first call and it would behoove you to follow her advice.
We encountered an issue that required legal assistance in Gainesville. We reached out to several attorneys in the area, and received little to no response. Ultimately, we contacted Carolyn Budnik's firm. We were facing a foreclosure redemption issue as a buyer and needed legal representation. Initially, we thought the situation would be resolved quickly, but it turned out to be quite complex and drawn out. Fortunately, we had the Budnik Law Firm on our side. Ms. Budnik was dedicated, responsive, and earned our trust completely. Her rates were very reasonable. We would have faced exorbitant costs had we chosen another attorney. We are forever grateful for all the hard work she put into our case. She was able to complete the redemption for us, and also referred us to another attorney when the owner of the property would not vacate. If you need a knowledgeable and trustworthy attorney, we would gladly recommend Carolyn Budnik.

Attorney was quick - to get in the way, here was her last sentence, "Moreover, you never retained me. I merely made a phone call to try to help you out."

I was in a situation where I was looking for advice if a partition lawsuit was my next step. Called many firms that day, big names in Gainesville, was told from $150 for 15 minutes to $300 t0 $500 one hour just to find out if this was the correct path. I left a message with Carolyn, she called me back within an hour and she was amazing. She listened to my issue, gave me advice on what I should do, what would happen if I filed a partition lawsuit, costs to file, possible costs to finish. She encouraged me to offer a little to avoid the lawsuit. What kind of lawyer gives you a way to get out of filing a possible $20,000 lawsuit payout, Carolyn Budnik, that is who. She charged me nothing and asked me to let her know the outcome even if I didn't need her. This is a lawyer who cares. I have never paid her a penny but her help, advice and encouragement was priceless! Please if you need any help give her an opportunity to blow your mind!! Thanks for your help I am so grateful. You gave me a path and calmed my anxiety.
