Types of Cases We Handle

At the Lopez Law Group, we believe that a full-service law firm is best suited to help shepherd people through a variety of legal issues. We have a deep understanding of Florida law, and experience both inside and outside of the courtroom. You can trust our law firm to help you obtain a favorable outcome in Pasco County.

Residential Real Estate

There are few things that are more exciting – or more overwhelming – than buying or selling a home. It is often the biggest purchase that you ever make, which makes it all the more important that you have experienced legal representation. A good residential real estate lawyer can make the difference between a successful sale and a process that is fraught with delays and roadblocks. In Pasco County, we handle all aspects of residential real estate matters, from deed preparation to quiet title actions to partitions.

Commercial Real Estate

Commercial real estate matters involve different – and often more complicated – issues than residential real estate. Whether you are interested in buying, selling, leasing, or developing a piece of commercial property, you will need a seasoned Pasco County attorney to guide you through the process. Our law firm can help with your commercial real estate deal or any issues that may arise related to the property.

Real Estate Closings

The final step in any real estate transaction is closing. While this may seem like just a formality, it is actually incredibly important as it is the way that title transfers from one party to the other. Having your legal ducks in a row prior to the closing date is the best way to ensure a smooth closing. Reach out to the Lopez Law Group to talk to a Pasco County real estate closing attorney. 

Employment Law

Whether you are an employer or an employee, it is important to understand your rights and obligations in the workplace. This includes everything from knowing how the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects you as an employee to understanding your obligation to pay minimum wage in accordance with Florida law. Our Pasco County employment law firm represents both employees and employers across a range of employment law matters.

Criminal Defense

Whether you are under investigation by Pasco County law enforcement or have already been charged with a criminal offense, you will need a tough, smart lawyer to represent your interests. Both the police and prosecutors are required to follow the law in charging and prosecuting criminal offenses. Our law firm will thoroughly investigate every aspect of your case to put together the strongest possible defense to the charges against you.

Slander or Libel

The concept of slander or libel may seem old-fashioned, but it remains a major problem in modern society. When someone shares false information about you, it can harm your reputation and ability to earn a libel. A defamation lawsuit may be necessary to protect your interests and stop the slander or libel. In Pasco County, call the Lopez Law Firm to talk to a defamation lawyer about your rights and options under Florida law.

Small Claims

When you have a relatively minor dispute with another person or business, you can seek redress in Pasco County’s small claims court. This court handles matters that are valued at $8,000 or less. While the process is less formal than traditional court, there are still rules that must be followed. Our team of skilled litigators can help you get the best possible outcome for your small claims matter, whether you are seeking to bring a lawsuit in small claims court or are defending yourself against a claim. 

Business/Corporate Law

When you are a business owner, you quickly learn just how important it is to have experienced legal counsel. Almost every aspect of your day-to-day operations is governed by one or more laws – or may result in legal action by or against your company. Our law firm is skilled at handling various corporate law matters, from initial corporate formation to commercial litigation. Our law firm represents companies of all sizes throughout Pasco County in a range of business law matters.

Landlord-Tenant Disputes

In a landlord-tenant relationship, many thorny issues can arise, from nonpayment of rent to disputes over security deposits. These matters are governed by both Florida’s Landlord-Tenant Law as well as the terms of the lease. If you are involved in a dispute over a residential or commercial lease, our law firm can help. In Pasco County, call the Lopez Law Group to learn more about how we can help you with landlord-tenant disputes.

Probate

When a person dies, certain steps must be taken in order to handle their financial affairs, including paying their debts and distributing their assets to their heirs. In most cases, a person’s estate goes through probate, which is a court-supervised process of administering the estate. In Florida, you are required to have an attorney to assist you with probate, with just a few exceptions. In Pasco County, the Lopez Law Group can guide you through the probate process.

Land Trust Lawyers

A land trust is a legal document that allows multiple people to hold and manage real estate. Like other types of trusts, the document that creates a land trust must be carefully drafted to protect the parties’ interests and give full effect to their intent. If you are interested in entering into a land trust in Pasco County, the Lopez Law Group can work with you to help you achieve your goals.

Interstate Moving Disputes

If a moving company damages, loses, or steals your property during an interstate move, it can often be difficult to get answers – let alone compensation. There are several options to handle interstate moving disputes, including arbitration and litigation. A top Pasco County moving dispute lawyer can help you understand your rights and advocate for your right to full compensation.
