Florida Lawyer

Shook, Hardy & Bacon, L.L.P. (SHB) is an internationally known law firm with offices in nine locations around the world, including two in Florida. Lawyer Frank Payne Sebree moved to Kansas City in the late 1800s to further his already successful legal career. He founded the firm in 1889 and was later joined by Edgar Shook, Charlie L. Bacon and David R. Hardy. Known today by the names of these three innovative litigators, SHB has established itself as a premier defense firm in the most challenging legal arenas.

Miami and Tampa have proved to be very successful SHB offices for our clients and for the community. Located downtown at Biscayne Bay and Miami River, the SHB Miami office is adjacent to Bayside Marketplace. SHB has been a presence in this community since 1998. Established in 2000 in the landmark Regions Bank Building, our Tampa office provides a range of legal services, including expertise in products liability, business litigation, intellectual property and corporate transactions. Every Florida lawyer in these offices lives up the well-earned reputation of being dedicated to providing our clients with extraordinary customer service at an unsurpassed value. Our commitment to our community shows through our involvement in pro bono cases, including working with the Florida Immigrant Advocacy Center on individual detainment and asylum cases and providing assistance on impact cases in an attempt to change the system.
