Miami Law Firm Enters Tampa Market

PRLog (Press Release) - May 21, 2012 - TAMPA – Like many legal partners, Wesley Farrell and Ricky Patel met in the library during law school and quickly determined sharing resources and collaborating would dramatically help them succeed in school and once they entered the legal profession.  So, a partnership was formed, and these two talented legal minds have, in short order, accelerated the growth of one of the fastest growing law firms in the Southeast. Last week, the twosome opened yet another office, their first  in the Tampa Bay area, selecting a prime location in historic Ybor City, adjacent to the landmark Columbia Restaurant.

The law firm has several other high profile addresses, most notably their website domain ─ FloridaAttorney.com, a highly trafficked site.  Most of the firm's operations staff will continue to provide support from the headquarters in the Four Seasons Tower on Brickell Avenue in Miami.  Attorneys specializing in a variety of practice areas work from offices in Houston, New Orleans and Tampa.  

Much of the firm’s growth is attributed to their ongoing representation of clients in the hospitality and tourism industry, where they represent over 2,300 hoteliers.  The firm is a Founding Partner of the Asian American Hotel Owners Association (AAHOA) which includes over 20,000 hotels across the US. For AAHOA, Farrell & Patel has been deeply involved in settlement negotiations on behalf of members affected financially by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill of April 2010.

"We believe the convenience of our new centrally located office, just east of downtown Tampa, will serve our needs well in West Central Florida," said Wesley Farrell, founding partner.

“We’ve spent a tremendous amount of time in Tampa over the past year and have generated a considerable level of brand awareness,” said Ricky Patel, a senior partner in the law firm. “Our Miami office is burgeoning and many of the clients we represent are located on the Gulf Coast,” he added.
