I’m Carlos Otero, founder of Otero Family Law in Orlando. I've have been a practicing attorney since 2015. The last 7 years, I’ve limited my practice to Florida family law cases exclusively. I'm handling everything from straightforward divorces to complex property division and high-conflict custody cases. My practice is organized to move cases forward efficiently. You’ll deal directly with me from start to finish (no rotating associates). My approach is simple: understand what you want, map realistic options, execute precisely, and keep you informed. If you want clear answers and direct action, let’s talk. I also speak Spanish fluently.

My family came to the United States when I was nine years old and like most immigrants they had to make adjustments to their new life, make sacrifices, and to work hard to support their family. Within a few years I saw my parents and extended family begin to take risks and to start their own businesses. It was not easy but they endured, adapted and learned from their experience and began to live the American dream. We all helped each other, worked long hours and felt that this country that adopted us was now our country. I see this pattern repeated with many immigrant groups from all over the world. Coming to America is the beginning of your dream, not the end. As an immigrant, I understand the struggles and concerns that you and your family have. That is why it is my mission to make your immigration process smooth so that you may focus on creating prosperity and happiness for yourself and your family. My experience in the practice of law began to expand as the needs of my clients grew. I began to handle a variety of cases for them and have a proven track record. I have represented clients who suffered severe injuries from automobile accidents to those who were buying businesses or were having business disputes. I have been a lawyer for over 35 years and my approach has always been to provide my clients with the best legal representation possible. That is what I do as a lawyer.
