Greg is a Shareholder in the firm’s Litigation Group. His practice primarily focuses on what he calls, “business divorce” – partnership disputes, business separations and noncompete litigation. He has litigated some of the most significant cases in the state under Florida’s noncompete statute, and has several trial and appellate victories to his credit, on which he is often asked to lecture. His practice also includes real estate-related commercial and construction litigation, concentrating in the representation of homebuilders, developers and contractors. He also focuses a portion of his practice on representing sureties in contract and commercial bond matters, and creditors in bankruptcy proceedings. Within the last two years, Greg has secured an $80mm judgment in favor of a Canadian public pension fund, has successfully resolved a significant anti-trust action against one of the world’s largest pharmacy retailers, and has successfully enforced and defended noncompete and trade secret claims in matters receiving national recognition in various publications. He has fought equally hard for local businesses and individuals, with measured success. Greg has developed a national reputation for representing real estate brokers and brokerage groups in significant commission disputes and retaliatory discharge and whistleblower claims. Greg has represented several of the nation’s largest homebuilders in matters ranging from class action defect litigation to turnover and post-turnover homeowner association disputes, and has secured defense verdicts and judgments in recent multi-million dollar jury and non-jury trials. He also successfully argued a bankruptcy appeal firmly establishing the superiority of a surety’s equitable rights to contract proceeds over the claim of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy trustee, creating significant national precedent.

He also served two terms on The Florida Bar's Civil Procedure Rules Committee. Greg has served several terms as both an elected board member and officer of The Florida Bar Board of Governors, Young Lawyers Division, as Vice Chair of the Florida Law Related Education Committee and as an Ex Officio Board Member to the Hillsborough County Bar Association. Greg is an active member of the Tampa Bay Builders Association, and sits on the Board of Directors for the Southern Surety & Fidelity Claims Conference. Greg is active in the community, concentrating most of his efforts on public education initiatives. Greg is a past president of the John B. Gorrie Foundation.
