About this firm

For over twenty years, we have provided strategic, results-driven legal counsel to entrepreneurs, privately held companies, and multinational businesses across a wide range of industries. With a team of nearly 20 attorneys, we handle complex, high-stakes litigation across various forums and sectors, including real estate, technology, international trade, crypto, food and beverage, retail, and sports.

Our philosophy—Trained to Protect + Win—is about more than just strong advocacy. It reflects our ongoing commitment to mastering the law, developing professionally at the highest level, and consistently delivering outcomes that exceed our clients’ expectations.

Led by Brian Barakat, Giacomo Bossa, and Jocelyne A. Macelloni—each Board Certified in Business Litigation by the Florida Bar—along with Zalman Kass, we operate under a boutique model that brings Big Law–level performance with the agility and responsiveness of focused, partner-led teams. Our attorneys bring deep industry insight to each case, and every associate receives comprehensive training and meaningful courtroom experience from day one.

This disciplined, intentional approach allows us to attract top legal talent, foster a culture built on performance, and most importantly, position our clients for long-term success in an increasingly competitive and fast-changing business environment.
