Law Office of Frederick C. Morello, P.A.

Our Firm

I opened our law firm in Daytona Beach, FL in April, 1991. I worked with an insurance defense law firm prior to that from June of 1987 to April of 1991 with four offices in Central Florida and many lawyers representing insured individuals and companies. Our law firm has always been small but has developed a depth of experience in federal and state trial and appellate courts in the areas outlined below. After over 25 years of practice and relying primarily upon word of mouth, our reputation and one line in the yellow pages, I finally capitulated to launching this website. I did this so that we can have a greater selection of cases. I recognize that word of mouth only travels so far. We can’t help you if you don’t know about us.

We are highly selective in the clients we represent and the cases we accept. We reject many prospective clients because of our case selection standards. Much of our practice has been representing individuals but we have also represented numerous corporate clients for many matters. I believe that it is good for a lawyer to represent individuals and corporations in order to be more balanced and objective in their approach to any given case. Of course, there can be no conflict of interest in our representation.

Some of our cases have been high profile but we do not seek media attention and attempt to avoid it, as it often does not serve our client’s interests. We have successfully represented individuals against businesses, institutions, national and international companies and governmental entities in litigation and through trial. We also represent select companies and act as their counsel in employment matters, contract disputes, creation of employment policies, counseling on various human resource issues and defending them in litigation.

We will not publish our cases on this website as we believe our clients deserve confidentiality and this website is not meant to be a trophy list for bragging rights. You can inquire about specific types of cases we have handled. If you would like to speak to some of our clients, current or former, I will seek their permission for disclosure to you.

We do not guarantee or promise any results as this would be professionally irresponsible. Such a promise would ignore the realities and risks involved in the judicial process. Each client must understand that the results in one case do not guarantee a similar result, favorable or unfavorable, even in a case under similar facts and circumstances. Judges, juries and lawyers do their best to deliver justice every day, but the results are often not predictable so there can be no guarantees for any outcome.

What you will experience with us is actively participating in your case and, upon inquiry, being informed of the substantive and procedural law applicable to your case, including the judicial process. We educate our clients and require their active participation in the case. You will be working with us throughout discovery and trial preparation. Trial is risky and expensive for both parties. If trial can be avoided, it should be. However, there are cases where you are given few realistic options and trial becomes necessary to attempt to achieve a fair result.
