About D. Rep DeLoach III

I was fortunate to grow up in Pinellas County with my father being a well-known and respected attorney and community leader. When I started thinking about my own career, my father told me that he loved going in to work every day and helping his clients in the best way he could. With my father’s encouragement, my own passion for helping others and my love of creative problem solving, I knew that practicing estate planning and elder law was the career path for me.

My estate planning and elder law practice is more than just my profession – it is my life’s passion. I understand the difficult decisions that my clients face when they are planning their estates, when they are experiencing health issues as they age, and the effect their decisions have on their children upon their death. With the knowledge and the desire to help with the best solutions possible, I know that my clients are getting an estate plan that they, and their family, can rely upon to make sure they are provided for, their family is protected, and their goals are accomplished.

I know that I have found my niche with my estate planning and elder practice. My ability help my clients make good, practical decisions, my hard work and training, and helping my clients fully implement their estate plans holds me above other attorneys. I want to help you make the best decisions possible and just want to be your attorney for life. This means that we will be here to help answer questions and guide you and your family through your estate planning and elder law matters.

The reality: I love what I do and it shows with my happy clients. See what other clients say about me in my AVVO profile, a lawyer review and rating website.

As a trustee, I needed assistance with a trust that I was managing. I had requested assistance from multiple attorneys and was not able to get assistance. Rep DeLoach, on the other hand, not only helped us resolve a trust issue for a reasonable price, he also was kind, responsive and clear regarding next steps. I am very thankful for his time and expertise!

I did my research online and after checking , I decided on Rep DeLoach and extremely happy that I did. He knew what I needed done to update my family trust and was reassuring that he would get it done I also appreciate his team of April, Tammy and others in the office.

Prompt response to handling the probate process and clear communication as the information needed. Estate Questionnaire was easy to complete and submit. Their para-legal Landri Schmidt was a pleasure to work with.

Would never go or suggest anywhere else! Worked with this firm for years working in geriatric care and affairs. They were known to my team as the best for elder affairs! Rep and the team there are beyond AMAZING. They helped with all of my mothers affairs and made sure I had nothing to worry over when it was her time to pass. I cannot thank them enough and will continue to refer to them!

Attorney DeLoach and his team are helping our family work through the Medicaid process which is complicated enough but is made more so when the spouse of the person in care still works. They have relieved us of much stress and confusion.

While a REALTOR, I began a working relationship with Attorney D. "Rep" DeLoach III, Board Certified Elder Law Attorney, early 2021. He has been instrumental on numerous transactions involving the listing and selling of a Home, belonging to an Estate or a Trust. I can confidently say that his expertise and professionalism are always second to none. Throughout the real estate transaction process, “Rep” demonstrates a deep knowledge of the legal requirements surrounding an Estate and a Trust. He is eager to respond to any questions or concerns that I have. He is very clear in his communication and speaks to the clients and I, in a way that is easy to understand. I am always impressed with his ability to navigate challenging family dynamics with sensitivity and professionalism. I know 100% that he has the client's best interest in mind. I would highly recommend “Rep” to anyone who needs help with Estate Planning and Elder Law.
