About The Chesnutt Law Firm

A Vero Beach law practice concentrating on family law and child welfare, including child custody and time-sharing, parenting plans, divorce and collaborative divorce, division of assets, parental alienation and reunification, DCF investigations, and domestic violence matters. The firm also handles criminal defense work such as DUI, drug and alcohol offenses, assault and battery, juvenile crime, sex crimes, harassment and stalking, and expungement and record sealing, plus mediation and personal injury cases. Consultations are confidential and staff speak Spanish, with a Spanish-language version of the site and a client portal. Attorney Susan Chesnutt also hosts a podcast on family law and custody topics.

The firm is owned by Susan Chesnutt, who was removed from her parents as a child and placed in protective care through Florida's Department of Children and Families, an experience she credits for her focus on protecting children and families. She worked as a Child Protective Investigator on the Treasure Coast for four years, earned a Master's in Applied Sociology with a specialization in domestic violence from the University of Central Florida, and studied family law at Florida Coastal School of Law in Jacksonville. She then spent four years as a prosecutor with the Office of the State Attorney in the 19th Judicial Circuit, handling more than 30 jury trials.
