Over 15 years ago, Trizia created an exhilarating program, "Be The Diamond," mentoring and inspiring individuals of all ages within all walks of life with "real talks," "pay-it-forward" fashion, and enriching skill sets to enhance the superheroes we already are but may not yet appreciate due to adversity. "Be The Diamond" works directly with all demographics to nurture self-worth and find one's "YES" in life. Trizia is a firm believer in polishing yourself up to shine, and that pressure and heat either crushes you or makes you a diamond. Trizia encourages you to not be just any diamond, but rather standout and "Be The Diamond." She is proud of her work with students ranging from VPK through colleges/universities, as well as with adults, to boost their self-esteem through leadership mentoring. Trizia focuses on the "4 P's" - Passion, Perseverance, Perspiration/Pain, and Preparation - as well as themes of never giving up, resisting casualization and disconnection, avoiding excuses, self-responsibility, dressing appropriately for life's adventures, and how to find one's "why." Trizia has joyfully volunteered thousands of hours and donated vast amounts clothing and shoes to facilitate empowerment in others.

Noteworthy Skills

Before sitting for the Florida Bar, Trizia polished her trial skills, working as a CLI for the Brevard County State Attorney's Office, where she frequently tried cases to verdict on behalf of the State. While at the State Attorney's Office, Trizia was honored to advocate on behalf of "Ella" in a high-profile animal cruelty case. Ella was a beautiful white German Shepherd inhumanely left to die, locked in her crowded crate at home. Trizia drafted the in-depth Memorandum of Law in Opposition to the Defendant's Motion to Suppress Evidence, citing the exigent circumstances which allowed police to enter the premises without a warrant. The trial judge sided with the State and denied Ella's owner's Motion to Suppress. On appeal, the High Court agreed with the trial judge's decision, which included the Court's heavy reliance on Trizia's Memorandum of Law.

During her last year of law school, Trizia gained immense legal knowledge as a Judicial Law Clerk for numerous prestigious Orange County judges, including now Fifth District Court of Appeals Justice, The Honorable Jay Cohen, and Chief Judge of the Ninth Judicial Circuit, The Honorable Lisa T. Munyon. In law school, Trizia founded and was the President of the Federalist Society, active as a Moot Court Competitor, and an Executive Board Member of the Hispanic American Law Student Association (HALSA). Trizia "booked" Trial Practice, Insurance Law, Business Organizations, and Eminent Domain, receiving the highest grade in those classes

Testimonials

"Recently my elderly parents were involved in a catastrophic auto accident and were in need of a skilled attorney. I did not hesitate to recommend Attorney Trizia Eavenson. My parents were both severely injured and extremely out of sorts but Trizia met with them immediately and made a horrible situation better with her calming personality. When first meeting Trizia, my parents immediately knew that they had made the right decision. Trizia was always available to them, whether it was by phone or by making a personal visit to them two hours away. My mother pointed out that Trizia is quite different than most attorneys with her caring and concerned demeanor. Trizia put any and all of their legal questions to rest. My parents were so extremely satisfied with her legal knowledge and professionalism that they used her again for another legal matter. I would not hesitate to recommend Attorney Trizia G. Eavenson for any legal situation. You will definitely be in good hands."

Her commitment and passion for her work is evidenced by her attention to detail in dealing with our case. In each circumstance that arose, Ms. Eavenson gave practical advice and provided necessary information to allow us to make informed decisions. She sought the best outcome for our needs and ultimately worked to secure a win win situation for all parties involved. She goes all in to the point of exceeding what we expect from Lawyers these days. In addition to Ms. Eavenson's upstanding level of professionalism, her staff also provided prompt and professional service. Simply put, Ms. Eavenson is not like other lawyers. She not only served as my counsel she served as a mentor and for that, I will continue to use Ms. Eavenson for any future services and I highly recommend her and her staff."
~ Debbie

"As the owner of a large business I would like to say that I very rarely meet and do business with someone as qualified in their field as Trizia. She is not only professional and pleasant to deal with she is one of the top in her field of representing her clients. I have witnessed her in person handling a very high dollar case that went to mediation and her skill set in negotiating as well as her common sense approach to finding resolution were amazing. I could not recommend legal counsel to represent me and my company any higher than Trizia, she finds ways to get things done for her clients."
