A Trusted Advocate Through a Complex Construction Dispute

When our homeowners' association faced a major, multi-party construction defect lawsuit, we turned to Lenore Brakefield. Her deep roots in Naples and over two decades of experience were immediately evident. Lenore expertly navigated the intricate overlap of community association and construction law, areas where she is rightly recognized. She translated complex legal and technical details into clear, actionable advice for our board. Her strategic approach, honed from her civil and commercial litigation focus, was decisive. Lenore secured a settlement that not only addressed the structural repairs but also protected our community's financial future. Her professionalism is matched by a genuine dedication to her clients. We are profoundly grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her without reservation.
