Here at ALGO, we want you to feel like family. Trust is vital. In order to provide the best experience, you will always work with an experienced partner of your choosing (no junior associates here!) and we’ll guide you every step of the way.
There’s a big difference between a firm that WANTS your business vs. a firm that NEEDS your business.
We love what we do
We don’t believe in rinse-and-repeat one-size-fits-all solutions. We take extra measures to ensure that we listen to your needs and develop a master plan to tackle any obstacle in the best way possible. We believe in transparency so we will often provide a flat fee structure designed to control skyrocketing litigation costs and protect your bottom line (you’ll never see a “surprise” bill from us).
Our first priority is figuring out your desired outcome and working to make sure you’re happy.

Where We Excel
Divorce & FAmily Law
With our commitment to fee transparency, we provide a monthly flat fee to give you access to a lawyer on speed-dial without the in-house attorney price tag.
From startups to multinational corporations, our diverse team advises companies of all sizes around the world. We have developed a unique outside general counsel practice that offers a variety of critical legal services to tackle any pressing issue as they arise. Through our client-first approach, we work closely with you to understand key pieces of your business, history, and pressing matters so we can best help you navigate your needs.
Outside General Counsel
Our Entrepreneurship Practice Group advises clients throughout all lifecycle stages, from initial business formation, angel or venture capital financing, mergers, and acquisitions, to final exit. You’ll get a streamlined approach to meet your diverse needs and rapidly grow with the best ROI. Our experts regularly advise clients on many pressing issues, from corporate and financing transactions, IP protection, and software/IT matters, to labor and employment, compensation, and immigration.
Business Advisory & Entrepreneurship
We have significant experience representing individual, private, and public entity clients in state, federal trial, and appellate courts across the United States and before arbitral tribunals around the world. In many cases, our team represents "David against Goliath" in actions involving fraud, negligence, breach of contract, defamation, employment disputes, theft of trade secrets, and other situations. We often work on cross-border disputes involving unique procedural issues such as international service of process, questions of jurisdiction, and the taking of evidence abroad.
Civil & International Litigation
Our team works with key stakeholders in all aspects of luxury residential and commercial transactions, including due diligence, designations, alterations of landmarked buildings, and air rights and utility transactions. We have broad experience litigating disputes arising from the sale, purchase, development, and financing of real estate projects before trial courts and administrative bodies. To date, we’ve handled hundreds of millions in commercial real estate closings. It’s one of our specialties.
Real Estate
We bring decades of investigative, trial, and appellate experience, representing a wide range of clients charged with crimes ranging from homicide and sexual offenses to sophisticated fraud schemes before state and federal courts. We also advocate for clients challenging “Red Notices” before Interpol, and those facing extradition to the United States, and advise on laws impacting how business is conducted abroad (including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act). As part of our commitment to serving the community, we devote a significant amount of resources to pro bono representation, particularly on behalf of children and those who have been wrongfully convicted.
White Collar & Criminal Defense
We are uniquely positioned to provide immediate assistance when a crisis erupts. Founder & Managing Partner, Ignacio Alvarez, is an honorably retired Major of one of the nation’s largest law enforcement units and has well-established contacts and cordial relationships with law enforcement institutions on a local, state, and federal level. We focus on preventing legal problems by getting involved at the earliest stage (before charges are filed or police involvement ensues), and, when necessary, dealing with them as quickly as possible to minimize the potential risk of prosecution while safeguarding your privacy, liberty, and reputation as much as possible. We provide a level of interaction unmatched by traditional law firms by committing to our strict policy of rapid response (meaning we’re here for you any time, any day of the week).
Crisis Management
With more than 6 years working exclusively with nursing schools, and over 25 years working in local government, we represent nursing schools operating in the State of Florida to resolve issues involving the Florida Board of Nursing and the Commission for Independent Education. This includes licensing problems, notices of termination, letters of investigation, regulatory and accreditation compliance, administrative complaints, new institution applications, and the sale/purchase transactions relating to nursing schools.
Nursing School Representation
Our appellate lawyers have argued cases before state appellate and federal circuit courts of appeals as well as the U.S. Supreme Court for more than three decades. We have experience with precedent-setting cases in civil, criminal, and international matters. Clients include individuals and corporations, as well as lawyers and law firms that need our help litigating novel and complex issues.
Appellate Litigation & Trial Support
We help our clients engage with state and local governments throughout the State of Florida. Our team assists you with advancing important public policy agendas; engaging with elected officials; drafting, analyzing, and monitoring legislation; preparing and presenting testimony; building effective coalitions; and complying with elections laws and other ethical requirements.
Governmental Affairs
As former law enforcement officers, political officials, and county and union attorneys, our team is uniquely qualified to provide top-level legal advice and strategy to local government and police departments in situations that arise from day-to-day operations and other constitutional considerations. We deal with federal civil rights laws, labor disputes, complicated immunity issues, and how to navigate the many court and administrative avenues for defending governmental actions. We also work with police leadership to provide counsel regarding best practices, including pursuing civil asset forfeitures and petitioning for risk protection orders.
Municipal Representation
We provide legal advice and representation for influencers on any given social network to assist in contract negotiations, maintaining FTC compliance, and IP protection.
Influencer Representation
We understand that family legal matters can be overwhelming. Allow us to be your advocate and intermediary throughout this process. Our team is here to provide assistance and make this process more manageable for you.
