Our Firm

law firm

Representing the People of Brevard County, Florida for Over 40 Years

Established in 1976, the firm has been awarded the coveted “AV” rating from Martindale – Hubbell, the most authoritative legal rating source in the world. An “AV” rating is the highest rating available and is awarded only to select firms. Not all attorneys or firms are rated, and the “AV” rating signifies “legal abilities are of the very highest standard” and that “professional ethics are unquestioned.”

Although each member of our team dedicates their time to a specific area of the law, almost every legal need can be met by the firm.

Trained paralegals and legal assistants assist in the preparation of your case. A full-time, in-house investigative staff is part of your team and allows us to promptly contact witnesses and begin any necessary investigation. State-of-the-art computerized systems and resources allow us up-to-date and rapid access to necessary information and new developments in the law.
