You need a business attorney Miami companies can rely on for practical guidance that protects operations, investments, and long-term goals.

From our base in South Florida, we provide commercial and corporate representation to clients in the Miami area and across all 67 counties in Florida. Our practice brings together business law, commercial litigation, real estate, bankruptcy, foreclosure defense, estate planning, insurance claims, and personal injury matters, so you do not have to coordinate multiple firms when issues overlap. Our principal attorney has been recognized by Super Lawyers year after year, and our firm has been named among America's Top 100 Civil Defense Litigators, which gives clients confidence that their matters are being handled at a high level.

Business Law Counsel For Miami Companies With Florida-Wide Needs
Many businesses in and around Miami do not operate in a single county. You might have locations, customers, suppliers, or properties scattered across Florida, or you may be expanding from this market into new regions. You need a business lawyer in Miami whom decision makers can call who understands how your contracts, disputes, and compliance obligations will function statewide, not just in one city.
At Bilu Law, we work with operating companies, investors, lenders, and in-house legal teams that need consistent commercial and corporate guidance across Florida. We provide outside general counsel-style support, review and draft key contracts, assist with acquisitions and divestitures, and address day-to-day questions about risk allocation with vendors, customers, and partners. Because we represent clients in Miami-Dade Circuit Court and in other county courts across the state, we see how business issues actually play out when agreements are tested.
Our firm is authorized to perform title closings in all 67 Florida counties, which is important for companies that buy, sell, or finance commercial property in multiple jurisdictions. When a Miami-based business acquires a warehouse in central Florida or a retail site on the Gulf Coast, we can keep the legal work under one roof. We are also part of an international law firm network, so if your operations extend beyond Florida, we can help coordinate support in other states and countries through trusted relationships.
Integrated Corporate and Commercial Representation Built To Withstand Disputes
Every contract your company signs is a risk allocation tool. When documents are drafted without a realistic view of how courts interpret them, you are more likely to face disputes that drain time and resources. We approach corporate and commercial work with a litigator's eye, because we regularly handle business litigation in Florida State Courts and in the Federal Court for the Southern District of Florida.
Our team structures and negotiates agreements for mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, commercial leases, service contracts, and supply relationships. At the same time, we prepare for the possibility that those agreements could be challenged in court. That means we focus on clarity, enforceability, and practical remedies that reflect how companies actually operate. For companies in the Miami area that work with partners across Florida, this integrated approach reduces the likelihood of fragmented disputes in different venues.
When disputes do arise, we represent clients in matters such as breach of contract, shareholder conflicts, vendor and distribution disagreements, and commercial real estate controversies. Our recognition as one of America's Top 100 Civil Defense Litigators and repeated Super Lawyers selections reflect years spent in courtrooms defending contracts and business decisions. We use that trial experience to inform the advice we give at the negotiating table, so your deals are built to hold up under scrutiny.
Strategic Counsel For Commercial Real Estate, Bankruptcy, and Distressed Assets
Economic cycles and shifting markets can put pressure on even well-run businesses. For many companies and investors in the Miami area, commercial real estate, lines of credit, and leveraged assets are at the center of that stress. We provide strategic counsel in commercial real estate restructuring, bankruptcy advisory, and distressed asset management to help clients navigate these difficult phases.
Our work includes helping owners and lenders evaluate options for troubled properties, negotiate loan modifications or forbearance agreements, and develop plans that address both immediate cash flow and longer-term asset value. When foreclosure is on the table, we draw on substantial experience in Florida foreclosure defense. Our principal attorney co-authored a Thomson Reuters book on strategies for defending Florida foreclosures, which reflects familiarity with the processes and pitfalls that can arise in these cases.
In some situations, bankruptcy may be part of a broader restructuring strategy. We advise businesses on how bankruptcy filings can interact with ongoing operations, contracts, and secured debt, and we aim to help clients weigh the tradeoffs of different paths. Because we handle these matters in courts around Florida, including the Southern District, we understand how local practices and judges can influence timing and procedure. For Miami-based investors and companies holding assets statewide, that perspective can be important when making rapid decisions about distressed portfolios.
Regulatory Compliance and Emerging Risk In Florida Business
Rapid changes in technology and data use have created new categories of risk for companies of all sizes. In Florida, regulations such as the Florida Digital Bill of Rights are beginning to shape how businesses collect, store, and use personal information. If your company operates online from Miami or manages customer data from across the state, you need to understand how these rules might apply.
We work with clients to assess their exposure under Florida-specific laws and to build practical measures that reduce the chance of regulatory investigations or significant penalties. This can include reviewing privacy notices, analyzing data flows, and identifying gaps that could create vulnerability. Our goal is to provide clear, business-oriented guidance so you can make informed decisions about compliance investments rather than reacting to issues after they surface.
Artificial intelligence and automated decision tools also present emerging legal questions. We assist businesses in addressing AI-related liability within their contracts and internal policies, focusing on how responsibility is allocated among vendors, customers, and internal teams. For companies in sectors such as logistics, agribusiness, and healthcare transactions, where data and automation play a growing role, proactive planning can help reduce disputes and reputational harm. Because we practice across Florida, we watch how these issues develop in different courts and tailor our advice accordingly.
Sector Focused Business Representation In Key Florida Industries
Florida's economy is not uniform, and neither are the legal challenges companies face. We have developed experience in several sectors that are especially important in this state, including agribusiness, logistics, and healthcare-related mergers and acquisitions. That industry familiarity enables us to give more targeted advice than a purely generic commercial attorney might provide.
In agribusiness, we understand how land use, supply agreements, weather-related disruptions, and regulatory oversight can intersect with financing and ownership structures. In logistics, we see how port activity in South Florida, interstate transport routes, and warehousing arrangements create a complex web of contracts and liabilities. In healthcare M&A, we are attentive to regulatory approvals, patient data considerations, and integration issues that can derail a transaction if not addressed early.
By aligning our legal analysis with the commercial realities of these industries, we help clients anticipate friction points before they become disputes. For executives and in-house counsel, that translates into faster decision-making and more predictable outcomes. Our work across Florida also means we can spot trends that start in one part of the state and may soon appear in the Miami market, giving our clients time to prepare.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Types Of Business and Commercial Disputes Do You Handle?
We handle a broad range of disputes that arise in the course of doing business. These include breach of contract claims involving suppliers, customers, or joint venture partners, shareholder and partnership conflicts, commercial lease disagreements, and lender-borrower disputes tied to lines of credit, mortgages, or security interests. We also represent clients in commercial real estate controversies and in litigation that connects to bankruptcy or foreclosure matters. Each case is evaluated on its own facts, and strategy is shaped by the contracts involved, the venues available, and your business objectives. Our experience in Florida State Courts and the Southern District of Florida helps us anticipate procedural and practical issues that can influence how these disputes unfold.
How Can Your Firm Help A Miami Business With Operations Across Florida?
Our firm is structured to support companies whose activities cross county lines. Because we handle matters in courts and closing rooms across all 67 Florida counties, we can help you pursue consistent strategies for contract enforcement, dispute resolution, and real estate transactions statewide. For example, if a business headquartered in Miami leases space in multiple regions or holds collateral in several counties, we can coordinate the legal work without you needing separate firms in each location. Our authorization to perform title closings throughout Florida also allows us to manage acquisitions and financings in a unified way. This statewide perspective can reduce duplication and help maintain a coherent risk profile as your business grows.
Do You Handle Both Transactions and Litigation For The Same Client?
Many of our business clients engage us for both transactional and litigation matters over time. In practice, that means we may draft or negotiate contracts for your company, then later represent you in a dispute that touches those agreements or similar ones. This dual role allows us to see which clauses tend to create problems in court and to update our drafting approach accordingly. It also means we understand your business context when a dispute arises, which can speed up strategy development and decision-making. For clients in the Miami area who operate throughout Florida, this continuity can reduce the learning curve each time a new issue surfaces.
Can You Advise On Data Privacy and AI-Related Risk For My Company?
We can help your company understand how Florida-specific laws, such as the Florida Digital Bill of Rights, and broader data privacy principles may apply to your operations. That work typically involves identifying what personal information you collect, how it is used, and which third parties have access to it. From there, we can assist with revising policies and contracts so that responsibilities and expectations are clearer. We also advise on how artificial intelligence and automated tools are addressed in agreements with vendors and customers, focusing on allocating risk in a way that reflects your actual practices. While no plan can eliminate all exposure, careful drafting and planning can help reduce surprises and make it easier to respond if an issue arises.
What Should I Prepare Before Our First Consultation?
For the first consultation, it is helpful to have a concise description of your concern, your goals, and any time constraints you are facing. Bringing copies of key documents such as contracts, court papers, notices from lenders or regulators, or correspondence with counterparties allows us to give more tailored feedback. A simple timeline of important events, even if informal, can also clarify how the matter has evolved. If multiple decision makers are involved, consider who should participate in the discussion so that questions can be answered in real time. You do not need anything to schedule the consultation itself, and we can help you identify what additional information will be useful after we speak.
How Do You Structure Fees For Business Clients?
We know that predictability and value are important when it comes to legal fees. For many matters, we work on an hourly basis and discuss expected ranges based on scope and complexity. In some situations, such as defined transactional projects or discrete advisory work, it may be possible to use alternative structures, which we can discuss once we understand the details. Our focus is on aligning the level of effort with the significance of the issue to your business and keeping you informed about how time is being spent. We do not make blanket fee guarantees, but we do strive to be transparent and to tailor our approach to what makes sense for your company.

When Should My Company Hire A Business Attorney Instead Of Handling It In-House?
You should consider hiring outside counsel when the issue carries meaningful financial, operational, or regulatory risk that could affect your company beyond a single transaction. Examples include high-value contracts, disputes that may move toward litigation, regulatory inquiries, or expansion into new counties or markets where internal experience may be limited. Even if you have an in-house legal team, outside counsel can add perspective on Florida-specific rules or court practices, particularly for matters involving Miami-Dade Circuit Court or other county courts. We often work alongside internal teams to handle overflow work or to provide focused support on specialized issues. Our goal is to complement your internal resources, not replace them.

How We Work With Business Clients
Effective business representation requires more than legal knowledge. It requires a working relationship that fits the pace and priorities of your company. When you contact Bilu Law, we begin with a free consultation to understand your situation, your objectives, and the time frame you are working within. We then outline potential strategies and discuss which approach aligns best with your risk tolerance and business plans.
For some clients, we act in an outside general counsel role, providing ongoing support on contracts, policies, and day-to-day questions. For others, we focus on specific projects, such as a major transaction, a piece of litigation, or a restructuring initiative. In each case, we work to be accessible and responsive, returning calls and emails promptly and keeping you informed about key developments. Our team communicates in both English and Spanish, which helps ensure that decision makers and stakeholders fully understand the issues and choices at hand.
We also pay close attention to cost and value. Legal fees are an investment, and we strive to structure our work in a way that is efficient and focused on what matters most to the outcome. That might include setting clear scopes for particular tasks, prioritizing work that directly affects leverage in a dispute, or sequencing contract review so that the most critical agreements are handled first. Clients have described us as a firm that truly cares, is honest and upfront, and is willing to fight when others give up, and we work hard to live up to that reputation in each new matter.
If you are preparing for a consultation, it can be helpful to gather:
- Key contracts or term sheets related to your question or dispute
- A brief timeline of events, including dates of major decisions or communications
- Relevant correspondence, such as emails, letters, or notices from counterparties or regulators
- Basic financial or property information tied to the matter, such as loan documents or closing papers
Having this information available is not required, but it can make our initial discussion more productive and allow us to identify practical next steps more quickly.
