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.
