Internet & Technology
Protect your Soft Assets
Our firm provides the corporate counsel necessary to navigate the legal issues raised by internet and digital technologies. Our clients include technology startups, as well as, more seasoned "legacy" companies which require protection of software, trade secrets, and other soft assets in cyberspace. We also counsel clients on website compliance as it relates to required legal disclosures in terms and conditions, privacy policies, and emerging issues under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
Other Representation
Our firm has also represented clients involved in disputes arising from emerging technologies, including digital copyright issues, online defamation and rights of publicity, trademarks, trade secrets, and disputes involving technology licensing and software-as-a-service (SaaS). The firm's attorneys stay educated in emerging technologies and seek practical and efficient resolutions to potentially complex situations.

- Contract disputes
- Copyright claims
- Corporate, shareholder, partnership issues
- Tax controversies
- Trade secrets
- Trademarks

- and sophisticated asset recovery and defense matters
Our Litigation Philosophy
Understanding that each client has unique needs and goals, we listen carefully, assess each case individually, and discuss goals and potential outcomes. Because litigation is dynamic and often quite foreign to many clients, we work together with our clients from the outset to develop a strategic plan and continue the communication process throughout each phase to keep clients appraised of significant developments. Regular communication and assessment helps reduce the stress of unknowns. We pursue objectives with aggressive precision, but remain flexible enough to make realistic evaluations in response to the dynamic process in which cases oftentimes develop. We generally prepare cases as though they will go to trial. Although many don’t, experience has shown that thorough preparation and a willingness to go to court often leads to more positive resolutions for our clients. As with our entire practice, we rely upon experience that only comes with years of practice in the trenches, supported by modern technology, to deliver results to our clients efficiently. Although each case is unique, our ultimate goal is always the same: to reduce the burden of stress while achieving the best outcome for each particular client.Understanding the significant stress caused by the potential for runaway litigation costs, we are often able to avoid the uncertainty of the billable hour by handling litigation and pre-litigation disputes on a flat-fee basis or under alternative billing arrangements.
Co-Counsel Service to out of State attorneys
The firm’s attorneys have been involved in cases throughout the State of Florida, several U.S. states, and in the Cayman Islands. The firm also regularly co-counsels cases and assists out of state attorneys with navigating the Florida court system.
Estate Planning & Probate
Securing your legacy
We help clients protect their legacy through customized wealth preservation and tax minimization. We avoid cookie-cutter planning options through custom plans based on individual client goals. Planning often includes wills, trusts, family limited partnerships, private annuities and other domestic and international strategies. We also use charitable trusts and private foundations to meet planning and philanthropic goals. Our experienced attorneys are adept at navigating the complex legal issues faced by high-net-worth individuals.
Other areas of interest
We also handle all aspects of probate and trust administration, to carry out the goals and intentions stated in wills and trusts. Our work includes preparation of estate tax returns and allocation of generation skipping exemptions, trust funding, post-mortem planning and disclaimers, and trust and probate litigation.
