  • Draft, revise, and negotiate firm agreements (e.g., vendor contracts, NDAs, employment agreements, leases, etc.).
  • Manage and respond to legal claims or inquiries involving the firm.
  • Oversee policies, procedures, and risk mitigation protocols across departments.

Commercial Litigation Duties:

  • Represent clients in business litigation matters, including:
  • Partnership/shareholder disputes
  • Breach of contract
  • Non-compete, non-disclosure, and non-solicitation enforcement
  • Employment defense litigation (wrongful termination, wage disputes, etc.)
  • Business torts and unfair competition
  • Manage caseload from intake through trial, including pleadings, discovery, motion practice, hearings, and depositions.
  • Work closely with clients to develop litigation strategy and ensure exceptional representation.
Qualifications:
  • J.D. from an accredited law school; member in good standing of the Florida Bar.
  • 4+ years of experience practicing law, with proven litigation experience in commercial/business disputes.
