Brandon, Florida

Attorneys serving Brandon and Hillsborough County.

DHW Law has taken on matters for Brandon clients for 25 years. Real estate, estate planning, Supreme Court certified mediation, personal injury, immigration, and commercial disputes, all handled personally by David or Gwen Walkowiak.

Our connection to Brandon

Brandon is one of those geographies that makes sense for our firm without much explanation. It is a thirty minute drive east on I-275 and I-4, sitting squarely inside Hillsborough County where we already appear weekly. Brandon clients get the same access to David and Gwen as clients three miles from our office, and the matters we handle for Brandon residents (personal injury, real estate, consumer debt defense) are the core of our practice. When a Brandon client wants a firm that knows the Hillsborough County Courthouse but is not located in the crush of downtown Tampa, we are a natural fit.

What Brandon calls us about

Personal injury drives most of the Brandon caseload. Auto accidents on I-75, I-4, and the SR-60 / Brandon Boulevard corridor keep the intake list steady, along with commercial-vehicle crashes on the Crosstown. Hillsborough is a PIP-heavy docket, so Brandon cases usually turn on what happens in the first fourteen days. We walk clients through the PIP timeline the same day they call.

Real estate is the second largest piece. Closings along SR-60, title disputes in the newer Bloomingdale subdivisions, and foreclosure defense for Brandon homeowners all benefit from David’s Board Certification in Real Estate Law.

Consumer debt defense makes up most of the rest. Defending Brandon residents against creditor lawsuits filed in Hillsborough county or small claims court is a quieter part of the work, but it’s where an experienced eye for procedural defects often decides the case before the merits get reached.

Why we answer the phone ourselves

A firm in Lutz isn’t the obvious choice for a Brandon client, so the case for driving past the nearer firms comes down to the same thing it does for every client. Lower overhead than a downtown office. A partner on the file from the first call. And a practice that has sat in the same office for 25 years with the same two attorneys. Brandon clients dealing with a serious legal matter for the first time often tell us they expected a call center, and were surprised when David picked up.
