A. Anthony Giovanoli, Esq. — Profile
I attended the University of Central Florida, graduating in 1995 with a bachelor's degree in political science with honors. After graduating from UCF, I was accepted to the prestigious Florida State University College of Law, where I ranked in the top 3% of my class after just my first semester. Accomplishing this significant scholastic achievement early in my law school career earned me the opportunity to immediately join Law Review, of which I remained a member until graduation. I graduated from the FSU College of Law with high honors in 2001. I ranked 6th of the 225 students in my graduating class, which earned me yet another scholastic honor of being able to join the nationally recognized honorary scholastic legal society, The Order of the Coif. This scholastic legal society was founded to encourage excellence in legal education by fostering a spirit of careful study.
Before graduating law school, I was invited to join one of Florida's largest, full-service, statewide, multi-office law firms. While working there for several years, I represented clients in a wide variety of business and corporate transactions some of which exceeded $500 million, as well as civil litigation matters before various trial and appellate state and federal courts and administrative agencies. Handling both transactional and litigation matters as a "big firm" attorney allows me to now not only represent small and large clients discerningly and confidently when negotiating and drafting contracts and litigating business disputes, but also offer insightful advice on business strategy.
Today, I use all the knowledge and experience I gained working in my family's businesses and practicing business law for almost 25 years to serve as court-appointed legal counsel to Receivers and Custodians and as the Concierge Business Attorney® and outside general counsel to entrepreneurs, executives, professionals, businesses, and individuals including, but not limited to:
