We are a Florida law firm that has been in the business of helping people for 35 years. Our practice focuses on helping disabled veterans. We help people who the government has been pushing around. When the government shuts its doors and tells its citizens to go away, we pry open those doors and get the benefits that they are entitled to. Our work is not easy. However, it is meaningful. We deal with heartbreak. We hear ‘no’ a lot. We must bring endless sympathy and positivity to work every day. But our work is real. We change people’s lives. We are looking for people that have the required compassion, tenacity, and professionalism to carry out the good work we do.
There are jobs where you can show up to work on auto-pilot. Not so much here. At our office, you must bring your heart along with your head to help our clients. Do you have what it takes? If so, please keep reading.
