Types of Cases We Handle

The Lopez Law Group helps people with a range of legal issues in Florida. If you are dealing with a legal issue in Sarasota County, you can trust our law firm to provide top-notch legal advice and advocacy.

Residential Real Estate

Buying, renting, or selling a home is incredibly exciting. Yet it can also be fraught with a number of pitfalls if you’re not careful. Our law firm will work with you to help you navigate your residential real estate transaction, whether it involves code compliance, lease disputes, purchase and sale reviews, or permits. Our team has significant experience in all aspects of residential real estate matters in Sarasota County.

Commercial Real Estate

If you are looking to buy, sell, rent, or develop a piece of commercial real estate in Sarasota County, you will need a skilled attorney by your side. We have experience with land use and zoning regulations in the region, contract disputes, evictions, and construction litigation.  If you are an investor, contractor, developer, or commercial landlord or tenant, we will advocate for your rights. 

Real Estate Closings

For buyers and sellers, the closing in a real estate deal may seem like a formality. In reality, it is one of the most important steps in the process. There are any number of ways that a person can experience problems during a closing. Our Sarasota County real estate closing attorneys will help to ensure that you don’t experience any issues when buying or selling your property.

Employment Law

There are a number of federal and state laws that protect employees, such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. Our law firm represents employees who have experienced wrongful employment actions. We also counsel employers throughout Sarasota County on how to comply with labor laws and respond to allegations of unlawful conduct.

Criminal Defense

If you are under investigation by law enforcement in Sarasota County, your first instinct might be to cooperate or even to take a plea deal once you have been charged. While there can be some benefits to cooperating or taking a deal, you should never do so until you have the chance to talk to a criminal defense lawyer. There are a number of possible legal and/or factual defenses that you may be able to use to achieve a better outcome for your case.

Slander or Libel

When someone spreads false information about you that is harmful to your reputation or ability to earn a living, it may be considered defamation. Depending on how it was conveyed, it could be considered slander or libel. If you believe that someone has defamed you, you may be able to file a lawsuit against them. Reach out to our Sarasota County slander and libel attorneys to learn about your options.

Small Claims

Sarasota County’s small claims court handles disputes that are valued at $5,000 or less. Although you are not required to hire counsel to either bring a claim or defend against a claim, being represented by an attorney can help you achieve a better outcome. The Lopez Law Group is experienced in all types of litigation, including small claims court.  Give us a call to learn more about how we can help you with your small claims court matter.

Business/Corporate Law

Starting and running a successful business requires more than an entrepreneurial spirit and a willingness to work hard. You will also need to comply with various state and federal laws. Many of these same laws can be used to protect your company from things like intellectual property theft. Our law firm represents small, medium, and large companies throughout Sarasota County in a range of corporate law matters.

Landlord-Tenant Disputes

In Florida, there are certain laws that both landlords and tenants must follow. For example, landlords cannot simply change the locks if they want to evict a problematic tenant. Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, it is important to understand your rights and your obligations under Florida’s Landlord-Tenant laws. In Sarasota County, call the Lopez Law Group to learn more about how we can help you with landlord-tenant disputes.

Probate

Probate is the process of determining what assets a person had at their death, paying off any debts, and distributing the remaining assets to their heirs. With some exceptions, probate is required for most Florida estates. It can be a complicated, drawn-out process that can be challenging when you are also grieving the loss of a loved one. In Sarasota County, the Lopez Law Group can guide you through probate.

Land Trust Lawyers

A trust is a legal document where assets are held and managed by a trustee for the benefit of one or more beneficiaries. In Florida, land trusts can be used by multiple people to hold and manage real estate. These agreements can be complex, and require careful legal drafting. If you are interested in entering into a land trust in Sarasota County, you can rely on the top land trust lawyers of the Lopez Law Group.

Interstate Moving Disputes

When a moving company damages, breaks, loses, or steals your property, it can often be hard to get compensated for your losses. Our law firm has significant experience in arbitrating and litigating interstate moving disputes. If you live in Sarasota County and have a dispute with a moving company, we can help. Give our law office a call to schedule a consultation with a member of our team.

What Our Clients Say

A Godsend

Mr. Lopez was a Godsend and really helped me with my situation. Him and the entire firm were very diligent and helped speed the early stages of the process along due to a pressing situation. Throughout my experience working with the firm, they were always responsive and available any time I had a question or wanted to check on the state of affairs. Hopefully I won’t have to recommend Lopez Law Group to my friends or family, but if those unfortunate circumstances arise then there’s only one name I would trust. Thank you again for all your help!

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING...

Amazing Amazing Amazing!”

I called multiple attorneys to resolve my issue and none had much experience as much as this form. Anthony was amazing and made sure that as his client I was satisfied and understanding with his work. Very helpful and very patient and I was able to communicate with ease. I will definitely recommend this firm if you have a landlord/tenant issue or just an amazing attorney who listens to his clients needs.

Ashley Rondon

"Awesome!"

Thank you Geoff Pfeiffer, for your assistance when my HOA pushed back on my installation of the Solar Panels on my home. Your succinct and eloquent statements of my rights to them turned a “solar panels are not allowed on the front side of the roof, to a 100% approval with no changes needed. Thank you for helping me quickly resolved what was gearing up to be a fight with the HOA.

“I Will Never Use Another Lawyer”

We couldn’t be more satisfied with Sean’s work and are so grateful we chose him to represent us. He works so diligently and tenaciously to get results, and somehow manages to combine being a consummate professional yet friendly and approachable. I was honestly terrified of receiving the final bill considering the hours upon hours he invested in our case (texts, calls, emails, meetings, etc.) after hearing nightmare lawyer stories from other people, but when I did I was shocked at how little he charged us. I never thought I’d say I wanted to pay somebody more than they charged, yet this time I did. I will never use another lawyer; we will use Sean for any and all representation we will ever need, and I urge others to do the same. Thank you, Sean!
