About MarchmanAct.com
We're Here Because Families Matter
For over 15 years, we've dedicated ourselves to one mission: helping Florida families navigate the Marchman Act process to save their loved ones from addiction.
Our Story
Born from Personal Experience
We didn't start MarchmanAct.com as a business opportunity. We started it because we've been where you are now.
Our founders have watched addiction tear through their own families. They've felt the helplessness of watching someone they love spiral out of control. They've experienced the frustration of knowing their loved one needed help but refused to accept it.
That's why we understand that when you call us, you're not looking for legal jargon or complicated procedures. You're looking for hope. You're looking for someone who truly understands what you're going through and can guide you toward a solution.
The Marchman Act became our answer—a legal pathway that gave us the power to help our own family members get the treatment they desperately needed. Now, we've made it our mission to help other Florida families do the same.
Our Mission
Saving Lives Through Legal Intervention
"To provide compassionate, expert guidance to Florida families seeking to help their loved ones overcome addiction through the Marchman Act—ensuring no family has to navigate this difficult journey alone."
Compassion First
We treat every caller with empathy and understanding, recognizing the courage it takes to reach out for help.
Expert Guidance
Our team includes attorneys and specialists who understand every nuance of Florida's Marchman Act.
24/7 Availability
Addiction doesn't follow business hours, and neither do we. We're here whenever you need us.
Transparent Process
We explain every step clearly, so you always know exactly what to expect and what comes next.
Our Vision
A Florida Where No Family Loses a Loved One to Addiction
We envision a future where every Florida family knows about the Marchman Act and has access to the resources they need to intervene before it's too late.
Every day, families across Florida lose loved ones to overdoses that could have been prevented. Many of these families simply didn't know that legal options existed to help someone who refuses treatment.
Our vision extends beyond individual cases. We're committed to:
- Educating Florida about involuntary treatment options
- Advocating for resources in all 67 counties
- Training professionals who work with addicted individuals
- Supporting legislation that improves access to treatment
- Building partnerships with treatment centers statewide
Why We Do This
Because We've Seen the Alternative
We've seen what happens when families don't intervene. We've attended the funerals. We've comforted the parents who said "I wish I had known." We've heard the regret in the voices of spouses and children who feel they didn't do enough.
That's why we answer every call. That's why we work weekends and holidays. That's why we celebrate every successful treatment placement like it's our own family member—because in a way, it is.
Our Promise to You
- We will always answer your call with compassion
- We will explain every option clearly and honestly
- We will never pressure you into a decision
- We will fight for your loved one as if they were our own
- We will be there for you throughout the entire process
Our Core Values
The Principles That Guide Every Decision
These aren't just words on a wall. They're the standards we hold ourselves to every single day.
Integrity
We give honest assessments, even when it's not what you want to hear. We'd rather lose a case than give false hope.
Urgency
Addiction is a life-threatening emergency. We treat every case with the urgency it deserves because time saves lives.
Excellence
We pursue the best possible outcome for every family. Good enough is never good enough when lives are at stake.
Respect
We respect the dignity of both the family and the person struggling with addiction. Everyone deserves to be treated with care.
Confidentiality
Your family's situation is private. We protect your information with the same care we'd want for our own families.
Accessibility
Help should be available to everyone, regardless of background, location, or financial situation.
