ATTORNEYS
ANDREW LAVIN
A Miami native, Andrew T. Lavin has represented businesses and individuals in complex commercial litigation, probate litigation, real estate litigation, and class-action suit litigation for the past 40 years.
Nearly every kind of case has come across Lavin’s desk over the years, and while his goal is always to achieve a resolution to a dispute prior to litigation, he has had great success in the courtroom. After a nine-week trial, Lavin won a jury verdict of $5 million in John P. Fountas v. Microcomputer Resources, Inc., and while representing Hialeah Park Racing & Casino he both successfully defended the track’s land ownership and secured a summer jai-alai permit for an affiliate.
Lavin is a member of the Florida Bar, the Southern District of Florida Bar and the United States Supreme Court Bar. He has been recognized on a number of occasions by Florida Super Lawyers magazine and is an AV rated attorney by Martindale-Hubbell.
