Areas of Practice.
We focus on serious personal injury and wrongful death matters across Florida. Experienced, nimble, and focused, we have the resources and the will to take on any adversary — no matter their size.
Wrongful Death
When a death results from another's negligence, the personal representative of the estate may pursue a wrongful death action. We help families navigate the immediate legal questions that follow a loss while building a case that fully accounts for economic and human damages.
Brain Injuries
Traumatic brain injury matters — often missed at intake, often life-altering. We work with treating physicians and experts to document cognitive, physical, and emotional impact, and to secure the long-term care these injuries require.
Construction Accidents
Falls from height, falling objects, machinery and equipment failures, electrocution, chemical exposure, inadequate training, and roadway intrusions. Workers' compensation does not always foreclose third-party claims against contractors, subcontractors, or equipment manufacturers.
Car Accidents
Hundreds of automobile collision matters investigated and litigated across Florida. No collision is "routine." Our first advice to anyone who calls: do not give a recorded statement to an insurance adjuster before retaining counsel.
Rideshare Accidents (Uber & Lyft)
Collisions involving Uber and Lyft drivers, whether you were a passenger, another driver, a pedestrian, or a cyclist. Under Florida law, the insurance that must be in place depends on what the driver was doing in the app: at least $50,000 per person while the driver is logged on and waiting for a request, and at least $1 million from the moment a ride is accepted until the last passenger exits. Establishing the driver's app status at the moment of the crash, and preserving the trip data that proves it, often decides how much coverage is available.
Trucking Accidents
Catastrophic collisions involving 18-wheelers, tractor-trailers, and commercial trucks. These cases turn on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, electronic logging data, and the chain of liability among driver, motor carrier, cargo loader, and equipment manufacturer. The injuries are typically severe, the available coverage substantial, and the most important evidence — driver logs, ECM data, and dashcam footage — disappears quickly without prompt preservation.
Bicycle Accidents
Cyclists struck by negligent drivers on Florida's roads — a state that consistently ranks among the deadliest in the nation for riders. Florida law requires drivers to allow at least three feet of clearance when passing a cyclist, and PIP benefits typically apply even when a rider is struck by a motor vehicle. These cases require fast scene preservation: skid marks fade, traffic-camera footage gets overwritten, and eyewitnesses move on quickly.
Aviation Accidents
Aircraft cases — private and commercial — involving pilot or operator error, mechanical or design failure, and air-traffic or weather-related causes. A field that demands command of FAA regulations and overlapping state liability frameworks.
Montreal Convention Claims
International air travel claims governed by the Montreal Convention — passenger death and injury on international flights. The treaty imposes strict liability up to a defined limit, special multi-forum jurisdiction provisions, and a two-year limitations period. Miami's role as an international hub puts these cases on our doorstep.
Admiralty & Maritime
Representing passengers and seamen injured by cruise ship accidents and assaults, boating accidents, and other hazards on navigable waters. Cruise tickets often shorten the statute of limitations period to one year and require suit in Federal Court in Miami — a venue we have litigated cases in for over 25 years.
Medical Malpractice
Misdiagnosis, failure to diagnose, surgical and birthing errors, medication and dosage errors. We are highly selective — we do not take cases of questionable liability or minimal injury — and we prepare every case we accept for trial, supported by a network of medical experts.
Defective Products
Manufacturing defects, design defects, and inadequate warnings. Manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, and retailers can each share liability when a defective product causes catastrophic harm. We have the resources to take on national companies.
Dangerous Drugs
Pharmaceutical product liability — claims for serious harm caused by prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and medical devices. These matters typically turn on the manufacturer's failure to warn, design or manufacturing defects, or off-label marketing. Many become part of multi-district litigation; we coordinate with national counsel where the scale of the case requires it, while keeping the client relationship local.
Propane Tank Explosions
Catastrophic burn and blast injuries from propane and liquid-petroleum gas accidents — residential cylinders, food trucks, recreational vehicles, and commercial systems. Liability often spans the entire chain: supplier, retailer, installer, tank manufacturer, and valve and regulator manufacturers. NFPA 58 and federal DOT regulations form the framework. Preserving the tank, valve, and installation hardware before they are destroyed, returned, or replaced is often the difference between a viable case and a defense verdict.
Premises Liability
Commercial and residential building accidents, elevator failures, defective maintenance, sidewalk hazards. Florida law favors property owners; these cases require prompt scene investigation, witness interviews, and engineering experts before evidence disappears.
Negligent Security
Assaults, shootings, stabbings, and sexual violence at parking lots, apartments, hotels, resorts, retail centers, banks, and nightclubs. Property owners owe a duty of reasonable safety to their invitees — and bear responsibility when foreseeable harm goes unprevented.
Sexual Battery & Assault
Civil claims on behalf of survivors of sexual battery and assault — pursued independently of any criminal proceeding. These matters frequently involve a third-party defendant whose negligence enabled the harm: a property owner, employer, school, hotel, rideshare or transportation provider, or institution that failed to act on warning signs or prior reports. Florida law provides extended limitations periods for many of these claims, particularly those involving minors. Handled with discretion and on the survivor's terms.
