The Farber Law Firm Services: A Complete Guide for Florida Clients in 2026

Choosing a lawyer usually starts with a simple question: does this firm handle my problem? The Farber Law Firm, based in Coral Gables and serving clients throughout Miami-Dade, South Florida, and beyond, is a litigation boutique built around five core practice areas: personal injury and wrongful death, insurance claim disputes, business law and intellectual property, construction defect litigation, and consumer protection including TCPA robocall claims. This guide explains each service in plain English, who it is designed for, how fees and free consultations work, and what happens after you reach out. It is general information, not legal advice, and no outcome is promised or guaranteed.

Quick Answer

The Farber Law Firm represents individuals, families, property owners, associations, and businesses in five practice areas: personal injury and wrongful death claims; insurance claim denials, delays, and underpayments including hurricane and property losses; business and commercial litigation including trademark and copyright disputes; construction defect claims for owners and associations; and consumer protection cases including TCPA robocall and spam-text lawsuits. Consultations are free and confidential, many matters are handled on a contingency basis with no upfront attorney fees, and the firm can be reached at 305-774-0134 or 2199 Ponce de Leon Blvd #301, Coral Gables, FL 33134.

Personal Injury and Wrongful Death

Personal injury is the firm's flagship practice. The firm represents people hurt by someone else's negligence across South Florida: car, truck, and motorcycle accidents on corridors like I-95, the Palmetto, and US-1; rideshare crashes involving Uber and Lyft; slip, trip, and fall injuries at stores, hotels, and apartment complexes; dog bites; medical malpractice; nursing home abuse; cruise ship and boating accidents; and wrongful death claims brought by surviving families.

Florida's personal injury rules changed significantly with the 2023 tort reform legislation, House Bill 837. Most negligence claims now carry a two-year statute of limitations under Fla. Stat. § 95.11, down from four years, and Florida applies a modified comparative fault system under Fla. Stat. § 768.81 that can bar recovery when an injured person is found more than 50 percent at fault. Premises liability claims for negligent security are governed in part by Fla. Stat. § 768.0755. These deadlines and fault rules are a major reason the firm encourages injured people to seek a review early, while evidence is fresh.

What the firm actually does in an injury case: investigates the scene and preserves evidence, obtains records and expert opinions, handles all communication with insurance adjusters, documents medical treatment and future care needs, negotiates for settlement, and files suit and tries the case when negotiations fall short. Most personal injury matters are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning no upfront attorney fees; any fee arrangement is set out in a written retainer agreement, and clients may still be responsible for case costs.

Insurance Claim Disputes

The firm's insurance practice exists because of a simple reality: insurance companies deny, delay, and underpay valid claims every day, and most policyholders do not know their rights. The Farber Law Firm represents policyholders, never insurance companies, in first-party disputes across Florida.

The team handles hurricane, windstorm, and tornado damage claims; water damage and plumbing loss claims; fire and smoke damage; roof claim denials; commercial property and business interruption losses; and underpaid or improperly adjusted claims of every kind. A recurring theme in these cases is Florida's pre-suit notice requirement for residential and commercial property insurance claims under Fla. Stat. § 627.70152, which requires specific written notice before a lawsuit can be filed, and the bad-faith remedies available under Fla. Stat. § 624.155 when an insurer fails to settle a claim it could and should have settled.

The firm's founder spent years on the insurance defense side before representing policyholders, which means the team knows how claims are evaluated, reserved, and defended from the inside. That perspective shapes everything from how demand packages are assembled to how litigation is sequenced. Insurance disputes are frequently handled on a contingency basis, and Florida law provides for fee recovery from the insurer in certain prevailing policyholder cases, subject to the 2023 legislative changes to Fla. Stat. § 627.428's successor framework.

Business Law and Intellectual Property

For companies and entrepreneurs, the firm handles commercial litigation and intellectual property matters: breach of contract and business tort claims; partnership, shareholder, and ownership disputes; non-compete and trade secret litigation under Fla. Stat. § 542.335; trademark prosecution, enforcement, and infringement litigation; copyright protection and licensing disputes; and unfair competition claims.

The firm's business clients range from Coral Gables startups protecting their first brand to established companies in bet-the-company contract disputes. The practice is deliberately litigation-focused: when negotiations fail, the firm is built to take commercial cases through trial. Business matters are billed under structures that vary by matter, including hourly and contingency arrangements, all set out in a written retainer agreement before work begins.

Construction Defect Litigation

South Florida's construction boom has produced a matching wave of defective construction. The firm represents property owners, homeowners, condominium and homeowners associations, businesses, and developers in disputes involving defective workmanship, design errors and professional negligence, water intrusion and moisture damage, structural and foundation failures, building code and permitting violations, and contractor and subcontractor negligence.

Construction defect claims in Florida are shaped by the Chapter 558 pre-suit notice and inspection process, which gives contractors an opportunity to inspect and offer repairs before suit, and by the statute of repose in Fla. Stat. § 95.11(3)(c), which places an outer time limit on latent defect claims. The firm coordinates with engineers, building envelope consultants, and other experts to document defects and quantify repair costs, then pursues recovery through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or trial.

Consumer Protection and TCPA Claims

The consumer protection practice focuses on statutes that pay real money to ordinary people when companies break the rules. The centerpiece is the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. § 227, which provides $500 to $1,500 per illegal robocall, spam text, or junk fax, and Florida's Telephone Solicitation Act, Fla. Stat. § 501.059, which adds a parallel state claim. The firm also handles Fair Credit Reporting Act disputes over credit report errors and mixed files, unlawful debt collection under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, and unfair and deceptive trade practices claims under Florida's FDUTPA, Fla. Stat. § 501.201 et seq.

The firm maintains a dedicated online TCPA intake process where consumers can describe the calls or texts they received and optionally upload screenshots and call logs, which lets the team evaluate per-violation damages quickly. Most consumer protection matters are handled without upfront attorney fees under a written retainer agreement.

How Fees and Free Consultations Work

Every engagement starts the same way: a free, confidential consultation. You tell the firm what happened, the team asks questions, and you get a candid assessment of whether you have a case and what it might involve. There is no charge and no obligation for this review.

Fee structures depend on the practice area. Personal injury, insurance dispute, and most consumer protection matters are typically handled on a contingency fee basis: the firm's fee is a percentage of any recovery, with no upfront attorney fees. Business and some construction matters may be billed hourly or under hybrid arrangements. Whatever the structure, it is documented in a written retainer agreement before representation begins, and Florida Bar rules require that clients understand they may be responsible for litigation costs even in contingency matters.

What to Expect When You Call

The firm's process is deliberately simple. First, contact: call 305-774-0134, submit the online case review form, or use the TCPA intake page for robocall matters. Second, evaluation: the team reviews your facts, documents, and deadlines and tells you directly whether the firm can help; if a matter falls outside the firm's practice areas, you will hear that plainly rather than be strung along. Third, engagement: if both sides agree to proceed, a written retainer agreement is signed, which is the point at which an attorney-client relationship forms. Fourth, execution: the firm investigates, builds the case, and pursues resolution through negotiation, litigation, or trial, keeping you informed at each stage.
