We Do Things a Little Differently
Whether you want a fighter in your corner, decades of courtroom experience, or simply a lawyer who returns your calls — you should know we do things a little differently here.
In the big box law firms that advertise on TV, your case is just one out of thousands of others handed off from one lawyer or paralegal to the next. Former clients of these firms have told us the difficulties in communicating and not being able to get a straight answer out of anyone.
Our philosophy is different — we take an interest in our clients, diligently work on a solution for each case, and obtain the best possible outcome by paying attention to details that make a difference.

Meet Michael Mastrogiovanni
A graduate of St. Petersburg College, the University of South Florida, and Stetson College of Law, Michael began his career as a prosecutor at the 6th Circuit State Attorney's Office — and has spent more than twenty years since fighting for the other side.
While some lawyers have never seen the inside of a courtroom, Michael has represented thousands of clients in jury trials, hearings, and negotiations — from serious felonies to hard-fought disability appeals.
He has served as a judge in teen court, was Vice President of the Allgood-Altman Inns of Court, has testified as an expert witness for other lawyers, has handled many pro bono cases, and has been named one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers in the State of Florida.
“The secret to his success? He treats every client the way he'd want to be treated.”
What Our Clients Say
This office and associates were absolutely wonderful and amazing! They worked very hard on my disability case and after fighting with social security for 3 years we finally got the approval for my disability. Michael and his team will always have my gratitude for everything.
I was in a tough situation facing a felony and possible jail time, I was shopping around for lawyers getting quoted close to 10k until I called Mastrogiovanni Law firm — not only was he the only lawyer that gave me advice on how I should handle this before I even hired him, he was also willing to work with me with the payments. He pulled a miracle and was able to get the felony dropped to a misdemeanor!
I can not thank you enough for what you have done for me and my family. You managed a very stressful and complicated situation, all the while keeping the stress low for me and helping me not lose heart. Words cannot express my gratitude.
We never pay to remove reviews and never tell clients what to write.
