Florida has something of a ‘Wild West’ reputation when it comes to litigation. Protecting our clients and navigating our unique Florida court system are what we do best. Florida trial law is not for the meek and definitely not for the law firm whose home office is somewhere outside of Florida.
Alvarez, Thompson & Smoak, P.A.’s local and seasoned trial attorneys have extensive experience in Florida’s federal and state courts. Our goal is to provide good counsel and to aggressively represent and pursue our clients’ best interests to solve their Florida legal problems and disputes. Many times issues can be resolved informally in a conference room, at mediation or through Alternative Dispute Resolution; all services that we provide. When, however, all of that fails, it pays to have one of our attorneys by your side –trial work is second nature to us.
Business Litigation
We routinely handle a wide variety of issues arising from business and contract disputes to employment practice defense. We also pursue and defend contractual and non-contractual remedies and damages on behalf of our business clients, including property damage, slander and libel, contract interference and unfair business and trade practices, to name but a few. Whether your dispute involves money or a claim of irreparable harm, you can rest assured that we will provide you with the best and most efficient resolution.
Injury and Death
When a client faces a claim or lawsuit involving personal injuries, product liability or wrongful death, our attorneys work to resolve the matter with the least impact to our client. While some cases lend themselves to early and efficient claims resolution and settlement, others require a full jury trial and appellate review to exonerate our client. It is important to know one from the other, and no one does that better than the lawyers of Alvarez, Thompson & Smoak, P.A.
