As a result of his practical knowledge, Stevan is well-versed in both the business impacts and legal aspects of his clients’ construction endeavors. His real-world experience has helped Stevan to become a go-to attorney when negotiating construction contracts in Florida and across the country.

When necessary, however, Stevan brings extensive trial experience in representing clients before the Florida courts, federal courts, mediators, arbitration panels, and appellate courts.
Other key areas of Stevan’s expertise include working with franchisors and franchisees, management companies, vendors, and insurers. Drawing from his real-life experience, Stevan provides his clients with insight into the business aspects of a legal decision and the legal effects of a business decision involving construction projects.
Prior to launching his law firm, Stevan, an AV-rated lawyer, was a partner and leader of the construction litigation department of Greenberg Traurig, where he practiced law for more than a decade.
