Happy to report we were in trial two weeks ago. Justice was served when late Friday night the jury returned with a verdict finding our client not guilty of the offense charged. I won’t go into details to respect my client’s privacy; but they were extremely happy. Trust our jury system if you’ve been… Read More »

Just a scam alert: I received a telephone call over the weekend at the house indicating it was the I.R.S. it was left on the voice recorder.

Letter of Protection; It’s not “free money”

By Steven G. Lavely |

As many of you know I practice in the area of injury law. I’m one of a very select few (approximately 1% of Florida lawyers) who is Florida Bar Board Certified in Civil Trial law. As such I can call myself an expert or specialist. If a lawyer makes this claim and is not… Read More »

Car/auto accidents increase as snowbirds arrive

By Steven G. Lavely |

The truth is black and white; auto accidents increase during nighttime hours! Be careful out there folks! Bradenton and Sarasota lawyers know like drunk drivers, drowsy drivers cause more accidnets. Let’s also face it as we all age it’s just plain harder to see at night. Just remind yourself and your children soon they’ll… Read More »

would you like to chat now?

By Steven G. Lavely |

As you might imagine I occasionally puruse other lawyer’s websites. I’ve noticed many now have a chat line available. Many times a very attractive person’s picture appear will appear; reminds me of a dating website. I can’t be entirely sure, but my educated guess is you’re probably chatting with Aadab from India or Florence… Read More »
