We offer a full range of legal services to complement Sarasota’s growing economy and the expectations of our clients. All services are provided by knowledgeable and experienced attorneys with the assistance of a proficient and dedicated support staff. Many of our employees have been with us for more than 25 years.
The Florida Bar has a certification program to identify attorneys who have demonstrated special knowledge, skills and proficiency in certain areas of law. More than half of our attorneys are board-certified specialists in their respective areas of practice. Few firms have this kind of experience and specialist distinction to meet the needs of clients.
