A bit about us:
Established in 1978. Since our inception, the focus has been to provide our clients with large firm services in a smaller firm environment. With two different offices, we actively litigate in state and federal courts throughout Florida.
The firm has achieved Martindale-Hubbell’s highest rating of “AV.” We have assembled a staff of lawyers and paralegals who are distinguished representatives of the legal community. The addition of a highly skilled and professional staff greatly enhances the firm’s ability to respond to a client’s litigation needs.
What We Do:
Our legal team is experienced in many different areas of law and litigation, including healthcare matters, such as malpractice, professional liability, nursing home/long-term care, and administrative law, but also many other types of legal matters, such as product liability and general liability, including automobile liability, commercial trucking liability, premises liability, wrongful death, and all manners of litigation, including complex litigation.
Why join us?
What Makes Us Different:
We are highly responsive and accessible to our clients throughout the litigation process. We pride ourselves in keeping our clients updated on the progress of their matter and providing honest evaluations of each case.
We consistently provide our clients with their best possible outcomes and take each matter personally. Our small size and extensive experience allow us to remain flexible and pivot quickly, adjusting to the oft-changing circumstances that are inherent with legal matters, especially in litigation. We can make those adjustments without exorbitant additional fees.
