Miami Hospitality Law Business Attorneys

At Charlip Law Group, LC we have over 30 years of experience dealing with issues affecting restaurants, hotels, resorts, spas and nightclubs. As experienced Miami hospitality attorneys, we have litigated many varied disputes involving the hospitality industry and we have acted as counsel and lawyers as part of the formation, acquisition, sale and renovation of nightclubs, restaurants and hotels and resorts as well as country clubs and golf clubs. In fact, the first two cases David H. Charlip ever defended in the early 1980’s were brought against The Rascal House and Pumpernicks – two of the most well-known South Florida delicatessens (earning him the moniker for a number of years as “the deli lawyer”).

What our clients are saying

  • I had a class action suit to file, and needed to find representation in Florida. My case was complex, and in an industry most people don't know much about. After consultations with two other firms who both declined my case, Charlip Law Group was my next call. David spoke to me personally, and he was the first attorney that actually understood the issue. We had a strong case, and in the end all class members that participated ended up with 100% indemnification and it was no small amount either. Make Charlip your first call." — Client
