Title Insurance Litigation
We have built one of the largest title defense legal teams in the state. From
simple matters such as boundary line disputes and missed encumbrances, to
the most complex and pervasive real estate title issues such as defalcation,
multi-million dollar mortgage fraud, and agent termination, our experienced
lawyers effectively and efficiently represent title underwriters and their
insured customers. We resolve simple claims quickly and efficiently, carefully
managing every kind of title claim, of any size, while striving to minimize
losses and resolve disputes for our underwriters and their customers as
expeditiously as possible.
Commercial Litigation
Our business clients look to us to counsel and represent them in a wide variety
of litigation matters, from simple breach of contracts, to Uniform Commercial
Code, business tort and warranty claims. Our experience also includes trade
secret, employment and non-compete agreements, as well as trademark and
trade dress litigation in state and federal courts throughout Florida.
Construction Litigation
Our firm’s experienced attorneys can provide a broad array of assistance
in construction disputes, whether in arbitration, civil litigation, or mediation.
Representing owners, design and engineering professionals, contractors,
and sub-contractors, we strive to achieve the most efficient resolution of our
clients’ construction problems.
Mediation
While working to achieve a compelling posture in litigation, we counsel
our clients in their negotiations to reach the best settlement possible at
mediation—if one can be reached—while striving to protect their rights and
interests. All of our litigation attorneys are experienced in mediation and can
assist you throughout the process. Some of our attorneys are also certified
as mediators themselves. In addition to their litigation practice, these lawyers
serve their colleagues and the public throughout central Florida as circuit civil
mediators to assist other parties in settling their disputes.
Arbitration
The litigation attorneys at our firm are experienced in a wide variety of
arbitration matters. From construction defect cases, to real estate deposit
claims, to warranty disputes, our attorneys have represented claimants
and respondents in arbitration proceedings of all degrees and complexity.
Throughout the process, we recognize the underlying business decisions and
risk assessments that our corporate clients must make.
Local Government Representation
Our firm routinely serves as counsel for local city and county governments and
community development districts throughout Florida, providing assistance in
eminent domain, real estate, commercial litigation, property rights and zoning
disputes, and appellate litigation support.
Appellate Law
Several of our litigation attorneys maintain an active appellate practice,
continuing our clients’ advocacy after the conclusion of a trial or proceeding
in state and federal courts of appeal. Our appellate experience includes
representation of appellants and appellees in final and non-final order appeals,
petitioners and respondents in certiorari proceedings, and amicus
curiae before the United States Supreme Court.
