Protecting What Matters

We help families and individuals plan for the future - to preserve their independence, assets, and legacy.

We fight to restore the rights and property of those who have been harmed due to the careless or intentional misconduct of professionals and fiduciaries - including attorneys, accountants, guardians, and others who have abused their privileged position, or neglected important duties.

We counsel clients on how to avoid protracted and costly litigation. We explore every option to resolve disputes efficiently. But when necessary, we fight tirelessly to secure our clients’ rights, both in and out of the courtroom.

Who We Are

Legacy

  • An important investment in your future.

    We work together to create, and implement, an appropriate and cost-effective legal strategy which protects your assets, your independence, and ensures your wishes are carried about during your life, and after.

  • The costs of long-term care can be extraordinary. However, there are steps that can be taken to protect personal assets and income, while still becoming Medicaid eligible.

    We guide clients through Florida and Federal law in order to become Medicaid eligible.

  • For individuals who who have lost the ability to manage their own affairs or to care for themselves, it may become necessary for a family member or friend to petition the court for a guardianship. We assist individuals seeking to have a guardian appointed for a loved one.

    We also assist individuals who want to maintain their independence in cases where a guardianship is improperly being sought against them.

  • Through a special needs trust, individuals with permanent disabilities can obtain a higher quality of life. 

    We counsel clients on these unique trusts, and prepare the appropriate documents to ensure that disabled individuals continue to receive pubic benefits.

  • When an individual passes on, how their estate is distributed depends on many factors. We guide our clients through the appropriate distribution process, whether that be through a formal court proceeding, the proper administration of a trust, or other necessary avenues.

  • Unfortunately, bad actors take advantage of vulnerable individuals, including through financial exploitation. We explore all avenues of potential recovery against those who perpetrate and facilitate elder fraud, abuse, and exploitation.

Litigation

  • Whether through missed deadlines, improperly drafted documents, conflicts of interest, incorrect legal advice, or other neglect, an attorney’s errors can result in serious injuries to their clients.

    We are not afraid to hold lawyers accountable when their unethical or negligent conduct falls below the standard-of-care.

  • Significant financial injuries can occur when a trusted professional fails to properly carry out their legal obligations. We represent clients in claims against accountants, insurance brokers, trustees, and other fiduciaries.

  • Business disputes can be complex, costly, and a drain on resources. We seek cost-effective resolutions, implementing creative strategies to reach the best outcome for the client, whether by settlement or trial.

  • We represent consumers who have been harmed as a result of fraud, misrepresentation, and illegal conduct of businesses. In some cases involving violations of state or federal laws, we are even able to assist clients on a contingency basis, recovering our fees by law from the at-fault party.

  • Preserving victories, and correcting errors.
