Practice Focus
Louis practices at the firm's Port St. Lucie, Florida office across four confirmed Florida practice areas.
Probate — Louis handles probate administration and litigation for families across St. Lucie County and the Treasure Coast navigating the Florida probate process after a loss. Whether the estate is straightforward or contested, he guides personal representatives and beneficiaries through the court process efficiently.
Family Law — divorce, dissolution of marriage, timesharing and parenting plans, child support, alimony, and equitable distribution for Port St. Lucie families. Florida's no-fault divorce framework and timesharing standards require an attorney who understands both the law and the practical impact on families. Louis handles both.
Criminal Defense — DUI, drug charges, assault and battery, theft, domestic violence, misdemeanor and felony defense, and federal criminal matters for clients across St. Lucie County. His admission to the Southern District of Florida federal court means he handles both state and federal criminal charges without referring clients elsewhere.
Property Law & Landlord-Tenant Disputes — eviction proceedings, security deposit disputes, habitability matters, lease enforcement, and unlawful detainer for both landlords and tenants in Florida. He handles both sides of the landlord-tenant relationship with the same commitment to procedural precision that Florida's eviction requirements demand.
Louis sees clients at our Port St. Lucie, Florida office and handles matters throughout Florida. His practice is concentrated in St. Lucie County and the Treasure Coast, including Fort Pierce, Tradition, Jensen Beach, and Palm City, and extends to clients across the state where the matter requires it.
