Attorneys serving Jacksonville and Duval County.

Our connection to Jacksonville

Jacksonville is three and a half hours north of our Lutz office via I-75 and I-10. That distance means Jacksonville matters run from start to finish by phone and video for almost every engagement. David is Board Certified in Real Estate Law through The Florida Bar, a credential that works in Duval County just as it does in Hillsborough. Gwen drafts Florida estate plans for Jacksonville families under the same Florida homestead and probate rules that govern estate work in every other county. Real estate counsel, estate planning, and immigration work for Jacksonville clients all run through our office remotely.

What Jacksonville calls us about

Real estate is the largest share of the work. Jacksonville is a diverse market, running from the historic Riverside and San Marco districts to waterfront property along the Intracoastal and beach communities on the Atlantic. Title issues on older Jacksonville properties, riparian-rights questions on waterfront lots, and standard residential closings all come across the desk. David reviews the Jacksonville contract, resolves title problems with the local title company, and closes by e-signing.

Estate planning for Jacksonville families goes to Gwen. The First Coast has a large military retiree population, and plans for retired service members frequently involve survivor-benefit planning, out-of-state asset coordination, and careful beneficiary selection. Florida homestead rules apply the same way in Duval as anywhere else. Wills, revocable trusts, durable powers of attorney, and healthcare directives all get drafted to be updated as life changes.

Immigration for Jacksonville clients runs through USCIS Jacksonville. Family-sponsored petitions, naturalization, and fiancé(e) visas are federal matters, and the full process runs from our office. Biometrics and interviews are scheduled at the Jacksonville field office.

Why a firm in Lutz

Jacksonville has plenty of firms, so the case for driving past all of them comes down to the combination. A board-certified real-estate specialist, an estate planning partner focused on that work, twenty-five years at one office, and a partner on every call. Most Jacksonville engagements come to us by referral, which is the pattern we trust most.
