Types of Cases We Handle
Personal Injury
We work on cases that include everything from car accidents to medical malpractice, and more. Clients can rely on us to do our own investigative work, review all relevant reports, bring in expert witnesses when appropriate, and work hard for the settlement that they’re counting on.
Business and Commercial Litigation
We’re skilled in alternative dispute resolution and will work towards a negotiated resolution. If going to court is what it takes to protect your rights and your interests, then our successful track record can give you confidence.
Appellate Law
The appeals process is often entirely different from what happens in the original trial. Your appellate lawyer must understand the distinctions and know how to find issues that can be used on appeal. We’re proud of our record in the appellate courts, and are available to help, even if we weren’t your lawyers in the original trial.
Divorce
There’s a myriad of issues that have to be resolved in a divorce. The property must be divided in a way that’s fair and equitable. When children are involved, important decisions have to be made on custody, support, and visitation. Our team is equipped to represent you throughout your divorce proceedings.
Paternity
In cases where the parents are unmarried, there may be a dispute over paternity. Fathers have the right to see their children. Mothers have the right to get financial support. Going through the courts to secure DNA testing may be able to resolve the issue. Let us help.
Modifications
The terms of child custody, child support, and spousal support can become outdated with the passage of time. The Florida courts recognize that life changes and that when those changes are significant, a modification to the original decree may be necessary. Whether you’re looking to secure a modification or believe that one is unwarranted, we’re here to advocate for you.
Enforcement
Following the terms of a family law settlement or decree is not optional. The agreements and court orders carry the force of law. If your legal rights, whether it’s visitation or child and spousal support, are being violated, our lawyers will work to get the law enforced.
