Roetzel's Paul A. Giordano Named as one of Florida's Legal Elite

Each nominated lawyer was scored through a multi-level process that included the number of votes received, an examination of Florida Bar membership status and a review by a panel of previous Legal Elite winners. The resulting lists represent fewer than 2% of the active Florida Bar members who practice in Florida.

"We are very proud of Paul and are gratified that his legal skills in bankruptcies and workouts are recognized by his peers," said Beverly Grady, Partner-in-Charge of the firm's Fort Myers office.

All lawyers admitted to the Florida Bar were asked to name attorneys whom they hold in the highest regard or would recommend to others.
