Andrew Diaz has been my attorney for a number of years and on a number of transactions. He is an absolute first-rate attorney and consultant. It is always good to deal with people with integrity.

We were extremely fortunate to have found Andrew Diaz, an attorney with this firm, simply by googling experienced "eminent domain" attorneys in the Tampa area. The very first meeting onsite, followed by subsequent meetings in office and multiple conference calls with Mr Diaz was extremely informative and he was quick to direct us in our efforts to negotiate with the FDOT. Like all eminent domain cases ours was very specific and required quite a bit of research into our company structure to prove our right to the damages as well as forensic accounting to further establish the limits of the loss. Start to finish we were professionally guided and what an amazing outcome. I can not even begin to articulate the importance of having Mr Diaz in our corner, but let me say 10 years prior on the same road I went the process alone, to my detriment. Mr Diaz's abilities and insight was beyond comprehension and with his firm's assistance we were awarded a settlement that was 18x's larger than the one that I had garnered on my own! My family and the legacy these funds will provide was only possible because God directed our steps to this amazing firm and wonderful attorney.

I highly recommend Gaylord Merlin for Eminent Domain cases. Any property owner who has undergone this exercise knows that it is a very stressful and in many cases a highly emotional ordeal. Andrew Diaz, our lead attorney, was professional, thorough and compassionate to me and my family throughout the process. He helped us understand this highly complex matter and walked us through every step. In the end, we were pleased with the outcome and to this day Andrew is a trusted and reliable resource. If you have an Eminent Domain case, call Gaylord Merlin. You will be glad you did.

Ms. Ludovici explains things very thoroughly and is very patient! I highly recommend her.
