Attorney Jeremy T. Simons
The lure of trial work was the primary motivator for my adventure to law school and into the legal world. Helping family law clients navigate, understand, and grow in times of conflict and litigation has kept me motivated since 2006 to stay a family law attorney. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to help clients from ages 15-87 and across all demographics, genders, marital partner preferences, and backgrounds. Each one makes an impression on me and reminds me how important this work is.
I have taken the responsibility to help good people in tough times to heart my entire career. I have been awarded the Salvation Army Hero Award, West Pasco Bar Association Attorney of the Year, the Sixth Judicial Circuit Pro Bono Award, and Sixth Circuit Honorable Mention for my work in helping victims of domestic violence. My passion for the law, for families, and for children in the most complex of cases is professionally gratifying.

After graduating with a degree in History from Metropolitan State College of Denver and completing of my Master’s work at the University of Colorado, Denver, I initially worked for the Federal Department of Interior as a policy analyst for government attorneys (solicitors) before law school called my name. At Florida Coastal School of Law, I graduated Summa Cum Laude with six-graduation honors (first in the school’s history) in 2006. Initially, I worked as a commercial litigator in Jacksonville until I voluntarily assumed the role of the Jacksonville law firm’s family law practice. I have not turned back since.
My Strengths
I pride myself on my communication with the clients at all times to keep them informed on where their case is and to thoroughly discuss changes or adjustments as the case develops. I am a student of the law, the courtroom, and trial work. My dedication to rise to the highest levels of professionalism with the clients, other attorneys, and the Court has maximized the outcomes of my cases. I make it a personal mission to be the most prepared attorney in the courtroom.
What I find Most Exciting in Legal Practice
First and foremost, the most exciting thing about practicing law is making life-changing impacts on my clients’ futures. It is gratifying and humbling. In a not-too-distant second is the excitement of the courtroom. Neither sky diving, bungee jumping nor any other feeling compares to walking into that court room ready to advocate for my client.
My Personal Life
I am blessed with two wonderful children with one in college and the other on her way. The most common question I get is whether I encourage them to go to law school, and I would love to answer that question for you during a consultation or conversation. I am an avid traveler with my two rescued mutt dogs and am still a student of the game of baseball in all respects.

Reviews
I am a mortgage broker in the Pasco County area. When people are applying for a mortgage I have to ask their marital status. Recently I had a what I thought was a single lady to find out 2 weeks before closing she had a husband. She had to find him to sign the mortgage or not close. Of course she did not want him on the mortgage and needed a very fast divorce. I referred her to Jeremy and he found her husband and divorce was final in 2 weeks. She was so happy she closed on her home on time. I can’t thank Jeremy enough for his fast and kind service!
Without a doubt, the most competent, ethical, knowledgeable, professional, straight-forward, caring and compassionate attorney I have every had the pleasure of doing business with. I have retained a few attorneys in my days, and Mr. Simons will consistently go the extra mile to apprise you every step of the way. His staff is as phenomenal as he is. You are treated as if you are the only client they have. From inception, there was resolution to every issue and Mr. Simon’s is so very respectful in the courtroom and I believe he commands that respect because of his professionalism. His fees are reasonable and believe me, once you begin to experience his representation, any other attorney will simply pale in comparison to his expertise, knowledge, follow through, professionalism, compassion and just downright kindness. His practice is quickly growing and the 2 attorneys he has added, quite simply, belong there because I believe they have a great deal in common with Mr. Simons. Going through a divorce can be devastating and Jeremy Simons and his staff will do everything to help you through this difficult time. You cannot fathom how you will survive and I guarantee you that Mr. Simons and his staff will shock you at their level of compassion, concern and by the way, when you call the office, you will always get resolution and response almost immediately. Prior to his representation, I experienced nothing but disappointment, overall cynicism for all attorneys, anger and just wanted to scream about the prejudice that was allowed toward me by former attorneys in this long and lengthy litigation. Once he was on board, I literally sat back and felt confident, safe and very well represented. Mr. Simons himself was always available and I never waited more than 1/2 day to hear back from him. Although they allow 8000 characters herein, I could easily surpass that, but suffice to say, “If you need a lawyer, turn to Jeremy T. Simons, New Port Richey, Florida.” You will not be disappointed. And aside from all this, he’s a nice young man and I wish him the greatest of successes in his future endeavors.
