Practice Areas

Heller Law is first and foremost a commercial litigation firm. We practice complex business litigation for businesses in Tampa Bay and throughout Florida, especially moderately sized or closely held businesses. Our clients come from every industry—although we have a specialized practice in healthcare litigation—and are on all sides of their disputes. We have experience in both state and federal courts, including the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the federal appeals court handling Florida cases. We also offer business consulting to interested clients.

Unlike some of our competitors, we have extensive experience taking cases to trial. Lead attorney Sam Heller has tried hundreds of trials, including dozens of complex business lawsuits, many of which required trials lasting more than two weeks. We have also founded and grown our own businesses, which makes us uniquely well suited to help other entrepreneurs confronted with litigation-based threats. The unique perspectives and backgrounds guide our advice to you, about both litigation strategy and day-to-day decisions.

Because many of our clients are small or mid-sized companies, we have particular experience with bet-the-company litigation—cases where an unfavorable decision could put our clients out of business. We understand what this kind of threat means to you, and we work in partnership with you on those high-stakes decisions. When the business you’ve worked hard to build is at stake, we use our extensive knowledge and experience to fight hard for you.
