Porzio, Bromberg & Newman, P.C., a multidisciplinary law firm with several locations in New Jersey, announced the opening of its newest office in Naples, Florida, expanding its footprint to 10 offices across the United States and Puerto Rico.
Principal John M. Elias, an industry veteran with over 35 years of experience, will lead the Naples practice, supporting a robust service offering to hundreds of clients in the state. He will be supported by Principal Philip J. Siana and additional counsel, with plans for significant growth in talent across multiple practice areas in the coming months.
The Naples office will focus a large portion of its service in the trust and estate planning sector, along with additional practice areas including real estate, litigation and corporate law. In total, 10% of the firm’s partners are barred in the state of Florida, with plans to continue growing that figure soon.
“We are delighted to expand our footprint in a significant way and bring our vast legal experience and renowned client service to the people of Naples and the greater South Florida region,” said Vito A. Gagliardi Jr., managing principal.
“This is a significant milestone in our firm’s history, and I couldn’t be more excited to have John leading this office alongside a growing team of attorneys, who will continue to provide the highest standard of legal counsel all of our clients have come to expect from us at Porzio.”
“I am honored to lead our exceptionally talented team in Florida, offering our comprehensive legal services to a rapidly growing market area,” said Elias. “This is just the beginning. With the help of our strong leadership team and a growing roster of attorneys, we look forward to being able to better serve our existing and new clients all across the Sunshine State.”
