Alternative Dispute Resolution
Alternative dispute resolution, particularly mediation, is a requirement in virtually all litigation. When conducted at the right time, with the right preparation, and with the right strategy, mediation can achieve a more predictable and cost-effective resolution of a dispute than other forms of dispute resolution. Our attorneys have guided clients through hundreds of mediations. That experience allows us to bring unique strategies, effective presentation methods, and creative negotiating skills to the table to help our clients in making sound business decisions about their cases.
In addition to advocating for clients at mediation, some of our lawyers serve as mediators in select cases.

Recent Florida Legislative Changes Impact Sureties' Exposure to Attorneys' Fees and Bad Faith Claims
A few days ago, Governor DeSantis signed House Bill 837 into law enacting sweeping tort reforms. This marks the second large scale reform to Florida law governing insurers and sureties in the last six months. In December 2022, Florida eliminated the one-way attorneys’ fees provision for property insurance claims. House Bill 837 goes further and eliminates one-way attorneys’ fees against insurers entirely. It also makes changes to statutes of limitations, comparative fault, and bad faith. The bill does, however, expressly preserve claimants’ rights to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees for successful claims against construction payment and performance bond sureties.
