Your case
Breach of contract
When the other side breaks the deal, you need more than a strongly worded letter. We document the agreement, calculate the real loss, and pursue what you are owed, by negotiation when that works and by trial when it does not.
What we handle
- Written and oral agreement disputes
- Unpaid invoices and vendor breaches
- Non-compete and non-payment claims
- Service and supply contract failures
FLORIDA
How Florida law affects your business dispute
Florida sets firm deadlines to bring a claim. A written contract generally allows five years to sue, an oral agreement four, and other disputes carry their own limits. Wait too long and a strong claim can be lost on the calendar alone.
Most commercial cases reward the side that documented the deal and acted early. We move to preserve records, send the demand that gets attention, and position the matter for leverage before it hardens.
Litigation is a tool, not the only one. When a negotiated resolution protects the business better than a fight, we say so. When the other side only responds to pressure, we are built to apply it.

Our process
How we handle the dispute
Strategy session
We review the contract, the timeline, and your goal, then lay out the realistic paths and their cost.
Preserve and demand
We secure the documents that prove the deal and send a demand that signals we are ready to litigate.
Negotiate from strength
Most disputes settle. We negotiate with the file built, so the other side knows the alternative is court.
Litigate and try
If it does not resolve, our trial team files and takes it through discovery, hearings, and trial.
Close it out
We see the resolution through to collection or enforcement, so a win on paper becomes a win in fact.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How long do I have to act?
Florida has strict deadlines, and evidence fades fast. The sooner you call, the more we can protect. A short call today costs you nothing and keeps your options open.
Will I actually talk to an attorney?
Yes. When you first call, our intake team takes your details so we can reach you quickly. The consultation itself is with an attorney. As your case moves you will also work with our case managers, and an attorney stays accountable for it start to finish. We keep our caseload small on purpose so your case gets real attention.
Do you handle business and contract disputes too?
Yes. Civil litigation is a full practice at the firm, not a side service. Our civil litigation division handles breach of contract, construction defect, business disputes, and real estate litigation. The first consultation is free and with an attorney, the same as on the injury side. These matters are then handled on a retainer and billed hourly, and we scope the cost with you up front.
What does it cost to hire you?
The first consultation is free in both practices, and the consultation itself is with an attorney. After that the fee depends on the practice. Personal injury is contingency: nothing up front, and no fee unless we recover for you. Civil litigation is handled on a retainer and billed hourly, and we scope the cost with you before we start.
Will I have to go to court?
We prepare every case as if it will go to trial.
We only had a handshake deal. Can I still sue?
Often, yes. Florida enforces many oral contracts, though the deadline is shorter and proof matters more. Bring us what you have and we will assess it.
