The attorneys establishing the latest new office in the Quarles family are veterans who bring with them highly sought-after experience in practice areas such as bankruptcy and creditors rights, franchising and distribution, foreclosure and workout litigation, e-discovery, ERISA litigation, real estate, admiralty expertise, products liability, insurance coverage litigation, noncompete and trade secret litigation, and general commercial litigation.

Our Commitment to the Community

Quarles & Brady takes its civic responsibility seriously, is committed to being a good community partner, and encourages its attorneys and staff to get involved. We are dedicated to giving back to Tampa and its outlying communities. The Tampa office kicked off its volunteer initiatives in 2010 with a two-week school supply drive to benefit the Hillsborough County Education Foundation. The office has since participated in the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk and the Bring Items of Necessity (“B.I.N.”) project, and organized an “adopt-a-child” program during the 2010 holiday season. Tampa attorneys and staff look forward to contributing to various local efforts in 2011.

Our Workplace

At Quarles & Brady, we take great pride in our workplace. Our culture as a firm is built upon a set of core values, a clear vision, and a comprehensive strategic plan that form a solid foundation on which our law firm bases key decisions. Our personnel, both attorneys and staff, are regarded as our greatest assets, and they are empowered, enriched and challenged in a democratic work environment where education and change are valued and embraced. In addition, we have a culture that encourages open communication and respect among colleagues, which fosters a great deal of pride within our organization.
