Attorneys serving Sarasota and Sarasota County.

Our connection to Sarasota

Sarasota is about ninety minutes south of our Lutz office on I-75. Close enough that some Sarasota engagements do include an in-person meeting when a client prefers one. David is Board Certified in Real Estate Law through The Florida Bar, and Sarasota real estate is a steady part of the firm's work. Gwen drafts Florida estate plans for Sarasota families under the same Florida statutes that govern estate work anywhere else in the state.

What Sarasota calls us about

Real estate is the largest share of the work. The market runs from downtown Sarasota condos to keys waterfront on Longboat and Siesta to inland properties east of I-75. Title issues on older beach homes, condo-conversion history, and the way coastal flood and wind insurance actually works all come up in Sarasota closings. David handles the Sarasota contract, coordinates with the local title company, and closes by e-signing.

Estate planning for Sarasota families goes to Gwen. Sarasota has a large retiree and seasonal population, and plans drafted here often involve out-of-state heirs, coordination across multiple properties, and careful Florida homestead planning. Wills, revocable trusts, powers of attorney, and healthcare directives are drafted to move smoothly through the Sarasota probate court if administration is needed.

Civil mediation is a meaningful piece of the Sarasota practice. David is Supreme Court certified in civil and family mediation, and Sarasota counsel regularly refer matters to him when they want a neutral outside the local bar. Most of those sessions run by Zoom.

Personal injury and immigration round out the caseload. Injury work is handled on a pre-suit or remote basis where it fits. Immigration is federal and runs from our office.

Why drive south to Lutz

What brings Sarasota clients to our office is the real-estate credential, access to a partner on the file, and the fact that the drive is short enough to cover in a morning when an in-person meeting is worth making. Twenty-five years at one office with two attorneys on every matter is the consistent offer.
